Anatomy and Physiology of the Digestive Tract of Drosophila melanogaster
The gastrointestinal tract has recently come to the forefront of multiple research fields. It is now recognized as a major source of signals modulating food intake, insulin secretion and energy balance. It is also a key player in immunity and, through its ...
GENETICS SOCIETY AMERICA2018The contribution of the host stress response to the pathogenesis of Pseudomonas entomophila in the Drosophila intestine
Recently, several studies done in Drosophila have revealed that efficient and rapid recovery from bacterial infection in the gut is possible only when bacterial clearance by the immune system is coordinated with repair through renewal of the epithelium dam ...
EPFL2013The Intestinal Epithelium
The mammalian intestine is a prototype of a self-renewing organ. The rapid cellular turnover is supported by proliferating progenitors located in the intestinal crypt, which is also the stem cell location. Homeostasis of the intestinal epithelium has to be ...
EPFL2011The functions of mucosal T cells in containing the indigenous commensal flora of the intestine
Nicola Harris, Andrew J. Macpherson
There is an immense load of non-pathogenic commensal bacteria in the distal small intestine and the colon of mammals. The physical barrier that prevents penetration (translocation) of these organisms into the body is a simple epithelium comprised of the si ...
