Title: The Role of Guanylyl Cyclase C During Intestinal Adaptation
Introduction: Following a proximal small bowel resection (SBR), the intestine adapts by increased crypt depth and villus height compared to sham operated mice (transection and reanastomosis only). The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is a known mediator of intestinal adaptation and results in activation of the GTPase Rac. This activates PAK (p21-activated protein kinase) which may activa...
متن کاملGuanylyl cyclase C signaling axis and colon cancer prevention
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a major cause of cancer-related mortality and morbidity worldwide. While improved treatments have enhanced overall patient outcome, disease burden encompassing quality of life, cost of care, and patient survival has seen little benefit. Consequently, additional advances in CRC treatments remain important, with an emphasis on preventative measures. Guanylyl cyclase C (...
متن کاملGuanylyl Cyclase C Hormone Axis at the Intersection of Obesity and Colorectal Cancer.
Obesity has emerged as a principal cause of mortality worldwide, reflecting comorbidities including cancer risk, particularly in colorectum. Although this relationship is established epidemiologically, molecular mechanisms linking colorectal cancer and obesity continue to be refined. Guanylyl cyclase C (GUCY2C), a membrane-bound guanylyl cyclase expressed in intestinal epithelial cells, binds t...
متن کاملGlycosylation of human receptor guanylyl cyclase C
Background Post translational modifications regulate several signalling pathways and glycosylation is emerging as a key player in this regulatory process. Glycosylation of cell surface receptors modulate the downstream signalling pathway and when altered causes a change in the normal physiology of the cell [1]. Guanylyl cyclase C (GC-C) belongs to a group of membrane bound receptors that produc...
متن کاملExpression of the intestinal biomarkers Guanylyl cyclase C and CDX2 in poorly differentiated colorectal carcinomas.
Guanylyl cyclase C, a receptor for bacterial diarrheagenic enterotoxins, is expressed selectively by intestinal epithelium and is an endogenous downstream target of CDX2. The expression of Guanylyl cyclase C is preserved throughout the adenoma/carcinoma sequence in the colorectum. Detection of Guanylyl cyclase C expression by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction is currently being va...
