Intestinal enteroendocrine L cells in amino acid sensing and diseases.
Enteroendocrine L cells are open-type enteroendocrine cells that play an important role in amino acid sensing. They detect amino acids by a number of membrane receptors such as calcium-sensing receptor and G protein coupled receptor family C group 6 subtype A. The receptors activate signaling pathways and trigger cellular electrical activities, inducing gut hormones secretion (glucagon-like pep...
متن کاملCharacteristics and mechanisms of hypothalamic neuronal fatty acid sensing.
We assessed the mechanisms by which specialized hypothalamic ventromedial nucleus (VMN) neurons utilize both glucose and long-chain fatty acids as signaling molecules to alter their activity as a potential means of regulating energy homeostasis. Fura-2 calcium (Ca(2+)) and membrane potential dye imaging, together with pharmacological agents, were used to assess the mechanisms by which oleic aci...
متن کاملGpr40 Is Expressed in Enteroendocrine Cells and Mediates Free Fatty Acid Stimulation of Incretin Secretion
OBJECTIVE The G-protein-coupled receptor Gpr40 is expressed in beta-cells where it contributes to free fatty acid (FFA) enhancement of glucose-stimulated insulin secretion. However, other sites of Gpr40 expression, including the intestine, have been suggested. The transcription factor IPF1/PDX1 was recently shown to bind to an enhancer element within the 5'-flanking region of Gpr40, implying th...
متن کاملDuodenal Enteroendocrine I-Cells Contain mRNA Transcripts Encoding Key Endocannabinoid and Fatty Acid Receptors
Enteroendocrine cells have a critical role in regulation of appetite and energy balance. I-cells are a subtype of enteroendocrine cells localized in duodenum that release cholecystokinin in response to ingested fat and amino-acids. Despite their potentially pivotal role in nutrient sensing and feeding behaviour, native I-cells have previously been difficult to isolate and study. Here we describ...
متن کاملAmino acid sensing by enteroendocrine STC-1 cells: role of the Na+-coupled neutral amino acid transporter 2.
The results presented here show that STC-1 cells, a model of intestinal endocrine cells, respond to a broad range of amino acids, including l-proline, l-serine, l-alanine, l-methionine, l-glycine, l-histidine, and alpha-methyl-amino-isobutyric acid (MeAIB) with a rapid increase in the intracellular Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)). We sought to identify the mechanism by which amino acids indu...
