Objectives   To investigate the effect of tumor necrosis factor ligand-related molecule 1A (TL1A) on the intestinal mucosal barrier in mice with chronic colitis.Methods   Male TL1A-overexpressing transgenic mice and male C57BL/6 wild-type mice were used to establish a dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced colitis model. The expression of occludin and claudin-1 was observed. Bacterial distribution in the intestinal mucosa and Th9/interleukin (IL)-9 expression were detected. In vitro co-culture systems of naive CD4 +  T cells and Caco-2 cells were established and TL1A was added. Changes in transepithelial electrical resistance and IL-9 expression were measured. CD4+IL-9 cells were detected by flow cytometry.Results   DSS mice showed a significant down-regulation of occludin and claudin-1 compared with controls. Expression levels of occludin, zonulin-1, and claudin-1 in the Caco-2+TGF-β+IL-4+TL1A group were significantly lower than in the Caco-2+TGF-β+IL-4 group. Bacterial distribution was clearly disordered in the DSS group. Transmembrane resistance of the Caco-2+TGF-β+IL-4+TL1A group was significantly lower and IL-9 expression significantly higher than in the Caco-2+TGF-β+IL-4 group.Conclusions   TL1A overexpression promotes destruction of the intestinal mucosal barrier in mice with chronic colitis. The underlying mechanism may be associated with the promoting role of TL1A in Th9/IL-9 expression, which further destroys the mucosal barrier.
