Lubiprostone stimulates small intestinal mucin release
BACKGROUND Lubiprostone is a synthetic bicyclic fatty acid derivative of prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) used for chronic constipation. The best known action of lubiprostone is simulation of Cl- dependent fluid secretion. In a mouse model of the genetic disease cystic fibrosis, we previously showed that in vivo administration of lubiprostone resulted in greater mucus accumulation in the small intestine...
متن کاملAirway goblet cell mucin: its structure and regulation of secretion.
Mucociliary clearance is a major function of the airway epithelium. This important function depends both on the physicochemical properties of the airway mucus and on the activity of the cilia. The former, in turn, is dependent mainly on the quality and quantity of mucous glycoproteins or mucins, which are produced by two different cell types, namely, goblet cells of the epithelium and mucous ce...
متن کاملVasoactive intestinal peptide upregulates MUC2 intestinal mucin via CREB/ATF1.
VIP exerts a spectrum of effects as a potent anti-inflammatory factor. In addition, VIP increases expression of MUC2, a major intestinal secretory mucin. We therefore investigated the effects of VIP on the promoter activity of the 5'-flanking region of the MUC2 gene. VIP activated MUC2 transcription in human colonic epithelial cells via cAMP signaling to ERK and p38. cAMP/Epac/Rap1/B-Raf signal...
متن کاملSelective secretion and replenishment of discrete mucin glycoforms from intestinal goblet cells.
Antibodies against MUC2, MUC3, and MUC5AC peptide epitopes stained the secretory contents of all goblet cells in the human colon-derived HT29-18N2 cell line. In contrast, four carbohydrate-specific monoclonal antibodies stained mucin glycoforms in consistent subsets of goblet cells. Cholinergic agonist-evoked decreases in total mucin stores were not always mirrored by proportional changes in mu...
متن کاملGoblet cell-specific expression mediated by the MUC2 mucin gene promoter in the intestine of transgenic mice.
The regulation of MUC2, a major goblet cell mucin gene, was examined by constructing transgenic mice containing bases -2864 to +17 of the human MUC25'-flanking region fused into the 5'-untranslated region of a human growth hormone (hGH) reporter gene. Four of eight transgenic lines expressed reporter. hGH message expression was highest in the distal small intestine, with only one line expressin...
