Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is characterized by an impairment of the integrity of the mucosal epithelial barrier, which causes exacerbated inflammation of the intestine. The intestinal barrier is formed by different specialized epithelial cells, which separate the intestinal lumen from the lamina propria. In addition to its crucial role in protecting the body from invading pathogens, the i...
In order to investigate whether earthworm fibrinolytic enzyme III-1 (EFE-III-1) isolated from Lumbricus rubellus is capable of transporting into blood through intestinal epithelium and keeping its biological function in circulation, we have raised an antibody against EFE-III-1. The immunological results showed that 10-15% of intact EFE-III-1 was absorbed by the intestinal epithelium with the in...
The intestinal epithelium possesses a remarkable self-renewal ability, which is mediated by actively proliferating Lgr5+ stem cells. Bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signalling represents one major counterforce that limits the hyperproliferation of intestinal epithelium, but the exact mechanism remains elusive. Here we demonstrate that epithelial BMP signalling plays an indispensable role in re...
Artificial sweeteners (AS) are synthetic sugar substitutes that commonly consumed in the diet. Recent studies have indicated considerable health risks which links consumption of AS with metabolic derangements and gut microbiota perturbations. Despite these studies, there is still limited data on how impacts commensal to cause pathogenicity. The present study sought investigate role bacterial pa...
γ-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) is the primary inhibitory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system, and it is produced via the enzymatic activity of glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD). GABA generates fast biological signaling through type A receptors (GABA(A)R), an anionic channel. Intriguingly, GABA is found in the jejunum epithelium of rats. The present study intended to determine whether a f...
OBJECTIVES To determine if histopathologic assessment of esophageal biopsies harvested for research study is justified due to the heterogeneity of tissues in the esophagus, and the consequent histopathologic mis-matches with the clinical histopathology of biopsies taken at the same level. METHODS Since 2004, patients undergoing upper endoscopy for a variety of clinical conditions were invited...
In segmented organs, homeobox genes are involved in axial patterning and cell identity. Much less is known about their role in non-segmented endoderm derivatives such as the digestive epithelium. Using a xenograft model of fetal intestinal anlagen implanted under the skin of nude mice, we have investigated whether the expression of five homeobox genes (HoxA-4, HoxA-9, HoxC-8, Cdx-1 and Cdx-2) i...
Despite serving as the primary entry portal for coxsackievirus B (CVB), little is known about CVB infection of the intestinal epithelium, owing at least in part to the lack of suitable in vivo models and the inability of cultured cells to recapitulate the complexity and structure associated with the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Here, we report on the development of a three-dimensional (3-D) org...
BACKGROUND Introduction The intestinal epithelium is the most vigorously self-renewing tissue of adult mammals and consists of four well-characterised types of differentiated cells: absorptive enterocyte cells (or colonocytes in the large intestine), mucus-secreting goblet cells, enteroendocrine cells and antimicrobial peptide producing Paneth cells (specialised cells in the epithelium of the s...
The intestinal epithelium has a remarkable capacity to regenerate after injury and DNA damage. Here, we show that the integrin effector protein Focal Adhesion Kinase (FAK) is dispensable for normal intestinal homeostasis and DNA damage signaling, but is essential for intestinal regeneration following DNA damage. Given Wnt/c-Myc signaling is activated following intestinal regeneration, we invest...
