Functional intestinal bile acid 7-alpha-dehydroxylation by Clostridium scindens associated with protection from C. difficile infection in a gnotobiotic mouse model

Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Laure Menin, Lyne Desharnais

Bile acids, important mediators of lipid absorption, also act as hormone-like regulators and as antimicrobial molecules. In all these functions their potency is modulated by a variety of chemical modifications catalyzed by bacteria of the healthy gut micro ...

Control of Hoxd gene transcription in the mammary bud by hijacking a preexisting regulatory landscape

Denis Duboule, Jozsef Zakany, Guillaume Andrey, Leonardo Beccari, Anamaria Necsulea, Edgardo Rodriguez Carballo, Virginie Marcet

Vertebrate Hox genes encode transcription factors operating during the development of multiple organs and structures. However, the evolutionary mechanism underlying this remarkable pleiotropy remains to be fully understood. Here, we show that Hoxd8 and Hox ...

miR-511-3p, embedded in the macrophage mannose receptor gene, contributes to intestinal inflammation

Michele De Palma, Mario Leonardo Squadrito

MiR-511-3p is embedded in intron 5 of the CD206/MRC1 gene Mrc1, expressed by macrophage and dendritic cell populations. CD206 and miR-511-3p expression are co-regulated, and their contribution to intestinal inflammation is unclear. We investigated their ro ...

Gut physiology mediates a trade-off between adaptation to malnutrition and susceptibility to food-borne pathogens

Bruno Lemaitre, Sveta Chakrabarti, Sylvain Kolly

The animal gut plays a central role in tackling two common ecological challenges, nutrient shortage and food-borne parasites, the former by efficient digestion and nutrient absorption, the latter by acting as an immune organ and a barrier. It remains unkno ...

Farnesoid X receptor inhibits glucagon-like peptide-1 production by enteroendocrine L cells

Kristina Schoonjans, Alessia Perino, Yasmine Sebti

Bile acids are signalling molecules, which activate the transmembrane receptor TGR5 and the nuclear receptor FXR. BA sequestrants (BAS) complex bile acids in the intestinal lumen and decrease intestinal FXR activity. The BAS-BA complex also induces glucago ...

Bile Acids Trigger GLP-1 Release Predominantly by Accessing Basolaterally Located G Protein-Coupled Bile Acid Receptors

Kristina Schoonjans

Bile acids are well-recognized stimuli of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) secretion. This action has been attributed to activation of the G protein-coupled bile acid receptor GPBAR1 (TGR5), although other potential bile acid sensors include the nuclear far ...

IMMUNOLOGY Chronic effects of acute infections

Nicola Harris

Acute infection of mice with an intestinal pathogen leads to long-lasting inflammation that is maintained by intestinal microorganisms. This observation reveals a path by which infection history can affect long-term immune function. ...

CL9/9L-beta-catenin Signaling is Associated With Poor Outcome in Colorectal Cancer

Michel Aguet, Patrick Rodriguez, Mauro Delorenzi, Pascale Anderle Pedone, Andreas Eduard Moor, Norbert Wiedemann, Sylvie André Baflast, Frédérique Baruthio

BCL9/9L proteins enhance the transcriptional output of the beta-catenin/TCF transcriptional complex and contribute critically to upholding the high WNT signaling level required for stemness maintenance in the intestinal epithelium. Here we show that a BCL9 ...

Accumulation of differentiating intestinal stem cell progenies drives tumorigenesis

Bruno Lemaitre, Jean Philippe Boquete, Zongzhao Zhai

Stem cell self-renewal and differentiation are coordinated to maintain tissue homeostasis and prevent cancer. Mutations causing stem cell proliferation are traditionally the focus of cancer studies. However, the contribution of the differentiating stem cel ...

PPAR beta/delta activation of CD300a controls intestinal immunity

Johan Auwerx

Macrophages are important for maintaining intestinal immune homeostasis. Here, we show that PPAR beta/delta (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor beta/delta) directly regulates CD300a in macrophages that express the immunoreceptor tyrosine based-inhi ...
