The intestinal epithelium during damage and regeneration : cell type-specific responses in experimental colitis and after cytostatic drug treatment

Author(s) : Renes, I.B.
Description : In the first part of this thesis the role of the colonic epithelium and in particular its associated mucus-layer during IBD and in several experimental colitis models is discussed (Chapter 2). In Chapter 3-5 our investigations regarding the colonic epithelium in rat during the different phases ofDSS...

Combined defects in epithelial and immunoregulatory factors exacerbate the pathogenesis of inflammation: Mucin 2-interleukin 10-deficient mice

Description : Expression of the mucin MUC2, the structural component of the colonic mucus layer, is lowered in ulcerative colitis. Furthermore, interleukin (IL)-10 knockout (IL-10-/-) mice develop colitis and have reduced Muc2 levels. Our aim was to obtain insight into the role of Muc2 and IL-10 in epithelial pro...

Selective sparing of goblet cells and paneth cells in the intestine of methotrexate-treated rats

Description : Proliferation, differentiation, and cell death were studied in small intestinal and colonic epithelia of rats after treatment with methotrexate. Days 1-2 after treatment were characterized by decreased proliferation, increased apoptosis, and decreased numbers and depths of sm...

Mucin muc2 deficiency and weaning influences the expression of the innate defense genes reg3β, reg3γ and angiogenin-4

Description : Background Mucin Muc2 is the structural component of the intestinal mucus layer. Absence of Muc2 leads to loss of this layer allowing direct bacterial-epithelial interactions. We hypothesized that absence of the mucus layer leads to increased expression of innate defense peptides. Specifically, we ...

Specific responses in rat small intestinal epithelial mRNA expression and protein levels during chemotherapeutic damage and regeneration

Description : The rapidly dividing small intestinal epithelium is very sensitive to the cytostatic drug methotrexate. We investigated the regulation of epithelial gene expression in rat jejunum during methotrexate-induced damage and regeneration. Ten differentiation markers were localized on tis...

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor ligand MCC-555 suppresses intestinal polyps in ApcMin/+ mice via extracellular signal-regulated kinase and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-dependent pathways

Description : A large body of studies has suggested that peroxisome proliferator- activated receptor γ (PPARγ) ligands, such as thiazolidinedione, are potent candidates for chemopreventive agents. MCC-555 is a PPARγ/α dual agonist and has been shown previously to induce apoptosis in vitro; however, the molecular ...
