`The Postgraduate Medical Journal is published
`monthly on behalf of the Fellowship of
`Postgraduate Medicine by the Scientific &
`Medical Division, Macmillan Press Ltd.
`
`Postgraduate Medical Journal publishes original
`papers on subjects of current clinical importance
`and welcomes review articles with extensive,
`up-to-date bibliographies as guides to further
`reading. Several symposia are published each
`year, each devoted to a single subject and
`written by specialists in different disciplines.
`Most issues include authoritative current
`surveys of clinical problems, well documented
`reports of cases of particular interest, and book
`reviews. An international Postgraduate Diary is
`also included each month.
`
`The Fellowship of Postgraduate Medicine was
`founded by a group of London consultants after
`the First World War to assist postgraduates,
`particularly those coming to London from the
`Commonwealth, to pursue their studies. The
`Fellowship first published the Postgraduate
`Medical Journal to give information about
`lectures, conferences and courses and to provide
`a monthly review of all branches of medicine.

`Summary: (cid:9)
`Crohn's disease evaluated by electron microscopy, epithelial cells of the ileum contained phagolysosomes
`with lamellar layers of lipid. These structures, now termed R or reactant bodies, are the proffered antigenic
`stimulus. They are proposed to be an amalgam of lipid (cholesterol esters, or phospholipids) and bacterial
`fragments (mycoplasma, mycobacteria or streptococci), which in combination are hypothesized to
`produce a powerful immunological response analogous to the adjuvant effect. For disease expression to
`occur, lipids and specific bacterial populations are needed in the bowel lumen. These factors may account
`for the success of elemental diets that are low in fat in the treatment of Crohn's disease and for the regional
`distribution of disease along the intestinal tract.

`Over the past three decades the incidence of recent study almost half of a group of patients with
`Crohn's ileo-colitis has increased in Western cavitating pulmonary tuberculosis were shown to

``adjuvant effect'." Barclay et al." emphasize that
`any factor which interferes with the association of
`oil and mycobacterial fragments reduces or
`eliminates the immunogenicity. Coating of bacteria
`to promote phagocytosis or prolonged retention of
`bacteria in tissue has been suggested for the
`adjuvant effect. Other concepts also seem possible.
`All bacterial cell walls lack cholesterol' and only
`mycoplasmas are known to require cholesterol or
`phospholipid for growth.' Mycoplasmas take up
`cholesterol/phospholipids from human low density
`lipoproteins by a simple exchange process," so
`altering fluidity of bacterial membranes" which in
`turn may promote uptake of bacteria by epithelial
`cells or immune cells. Thus the presence of surface
`receptors for lipids'." in ileal epithelial cells may
`promote endocytosis of lipid-associated bacterial
`fragments. Some mycobacteria require exogenous
`lipid for chain elongation of intrinsic fatty acids
`and growth." The presence and absorption of lipid
`in the distal ileum may enhance mycobacterial
`growth and hence the frequent manifestation of
`intestinal tuberculosis in the ileum.
`
`literature's-20 and two further cases of Crohn's
`disease were personally observed (Table I). None of
`6 control cases"' and neither of 2 cases of
`radiation ileitis, now observed, contained these
`structures. They have not been observed in
`enterocytes of coeliac disease' or experimental
`Yersinia infection.' The lipid-lysosomal bodies
`appear in the apical, basal and lateral portions of
`enterocytes, a feature which suggests that these
`bodies undergo transport across epithelial cells —
`transcytosis — a well known property of lyso-
`somes.' These bodies were also found with the
`electron microscope in macrophages" but aleady
`40 years ago lipid bodies were observed by light
`microscopy in activated macrophages of Crohn's
`disease.'
`Nine electron microscopic studies of colonic
`epithelial cells (Table 11)2" in ulcerative colitis
`comprising 159 cases, revealed 4 instances' where

`
`Many ileal epithelial cells involved with CD display
`lysosomes or phagolysomomes containing lipid in
`lamellar layers showing a whorl-like pattern similar
`to myelin (Figure 1). The lipid nature of these
`bodies was inferred from the characteristic lamella-
`tion of lipids' and their affinity on electron micro-
`scopy for osmium tetroxide, a characteristic of
`lipids. These structures were found in 19 out of 19
`cases of CD: 17 cases were reported in the

`
`myelin bodies were found and these appear to be
`cases of Crohn's colitis and shigellosis rather than
`ulcerative colitis. Healthy colonic epithelial cells
`revealed no lipid lysosomal bodies.
`
`A new hypothesis for the aetiology of Crohn's
`disease (R bodies)
`
`The hypothesis now proposed is that the lamellar
`lipid lysosomal bodies, together with bacterial
`fragments, are the antigenic stimulus and underly-
`ing cause of CD (Figure 2). The lysosomally
`derived bodies are termed R (reactant) bodies to
`
`distinguish them from non-reactant, non-tissue
`damaging lysosomes or phagolysosomes. The
`lamellar lipid layering in R bodies may vary in
`character but the configuration of thin lamellae is
`suggestive of cholesterol esters' while the
`configuration illustrated in Figure I is suggestive of
`phospholipids. The current proposal implies that
`the combination of a non-antigenic lipid, with
`bacterial fragments or bacterial cell wall together
`become strongly antigenic. Such an antigenic
`stimulus may be of long duration (6 — 12 months) as
`shown with dermal injection of mycobacteria in
`oily suspensions.'
`Cholesterol esters are taken up selectively by a
`variety of cells where both lysosomes and extra
`lysosomal sites' participate in their hydrolysis and
`further metabolism. Macrophages in particular
`take up cholesterol esters where they are also
`normally hydrolysed.' Hydrolysis appears im-
`paired in Crohn's disease judged by the appearance
`of lipid lamellar bodies in macrophages' of active
`disease but not in health.
`The conditions prevalent in the distal ileum for
`the causation of CD — cholesterol absorption,
`presence of emulsifying agents (bile) and specific
`bacteria — are analogous to the conditions required
`for inducing tuberculosis in experimental animals.
`These conditions are the presence of a lipid, an
`emulsifying agent (Tween) and mycobacteria. Such
`analogous sets of requisites may account for why
`both tuberculosis and Crohn's disease are so
`frequently found in the ileo-caecal region.

`AETIOLOGY OF CROHN'S DISEASE

`
`Clinical and experimental evidence for the Experiments with animals provide further support
`hypothesis (cid:9)
`for the hypothesis:
`
`Besides the biochemical and electron microscopic
`data a number of clinical observations uphold the
`present contentions.
`
`1. The content of lipids in the intestinal lumen
`should determine the formation of R bodies
`and the subsequent disease process. Total
`parenteral nutrition, which curtails lipid and
`other luminal nutrients, produces remission in
`66-89% of cases of active Crohn's disease."
`More specific evidence that removal of lipid
`induces remission was obtained in three pro-
`spectively controlled trials with elemental diets
`for active CD." They showed that elemental
`diets were as effective as prednisolone in induc-
`ing remission of disease and even reversed the
`radiological lesions of Crohn's disease.' All
`three diets' reflected a drastic reduction in
`lipid intake from the 20-30% of a normal diet
`to 0.66% of the total nutritive value. Most of the
`lipids in elemental diets were vegetable oils.
`These oils when used with mycobacteria do not
`promote antigenicity as seen with mineral or
`other oils."
`2. The hypothesis suggests that CD should occur
`in those regions of the bowel that have a good
`capacity for absorption of fatty acids and bile
`and where bacteria are plentiful. The distal
`ileum and colon fulfil these criteria and corre-
`spond to the predilective sites of disease.
`3. Crohn's disease in Africa rarely occurs in black
`population groups compared with those of
`European descent." The fat intake of blacks is
`very significantly less than that observed in
`whites' and is reflected in differences in
`manifestation of other bowel diseases in the
`black populations.
`4. Guthy of Germany" put forward the hypothesis
`that the lipid content of Western diets may
`cause CD. He then showed that a high lipid diet
`in pigs produced intestinal inflammation when
`intestinal transit was slowed by reversed ileal
`loops.'
`5. Because R bodies contain no viable bacteria,
`bacterial growth from tissue with Crohn's
`disease would not be expected. This is in keeping
`with the general microbiological observations
`of the disease.
`
`1. Suspensions of bacterial cell fragments (Strep-
`tococci group A or D) injected into the ileal wall
`of rats produced chronic inflammation and
`granulomas in 46% of animals," while injection
`of live or irradiated B C G (Pasteur) into bowel
`of guinea pigs gave a good model of
`granulomatous bowel disease," observations
`which, to some degree, are supportive of the
`hypothesis.
`2. R bodies of CD closely resemble structures
`found in macrophages of chronic arthritis pro-
`duced by injecting fragments of streptococci
`into joints. No bacteria but morphological
`arrangements similar to R bodies were found in
`inflamed joints after 4 months.'
`
`Conclusions
`
`Evidence from several disciplines has led to pro-
`posals that antigens causing CD are a combination
`of luminal lipids, emulsifiers (bile) and bacterial
`fragments which together become powerfully anti-
`genic when normally each individual substance is
`either non-antigenic or only weakly antigenic. The
`agents are amalgamated into phagolysosomes,
`now termed R (reactant) bodies, which, after trans-
`cytosis, activate immune cells in the lamina pro-
`pria. Intestinal tuberculosis is analogous to CD but
`viable bacteria are taken up where absorption of
`bile and cholesterol is optimal. The analogy
`explains the siting of both diseases in the ileo-
`colonic region. Clinical and dietary evidence sug-
`gests that luminal lipids play a role in the causation
`of CD but the precise lipid and precise bacterial
`fragments that are involved remain to be defined. A
`case can be made for fragments of mcoplasma or
`atypical mycobacteria based on their metabolic
`needs for exogenous lipids. These bacterial
`fragments would ideally be detected by DNA
`hybridization techniques' in Crohn's disease tis-
`sue. The new hypothesis has strong implications for
`the treatment of CD. Modification of specific lipid
`intake and elimination of luminal mycoplasma/
`atypical mycobacteria with specific therapy may be
`future strategies for the treatment of Crohn's
`disease.
