What is the role of fish intestine as environment-organism barrier? Mechanistic investigations using fish intestinal cells on a chip

The gut of fish belongs to the most essential barriers that mark the border between the organism and its surrounding environment. The pivotal barrier function, allowing to absorb nutrients from the diet while simultaneously protecting the organism from pat ...

An Exploratory Study On The Functional Significance Of Eosinophil Residency In The Small Intestine Under Homeostatic Conditions

Kathleen Shah

The small intestine is a highly dynamic and complex cellular ecosystem, which serves as the primary interface between the host and its environment. A critical component of this ecosystem is the microbiota, which plays a pivotal role in shaping both immune ...

Anatomy and Physiology of the Digestive Tract of Drosophila melanogaster

Bruno Lemaitre

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 ...

Bile acids deoxycholic acid and ursodeoxycholic acid differentially regulate human beta-defensin-1 and-2 secretion by colonic epithelial cells

Kristina Schoonjans, Alessia Perino

Bile acids and epithelial-derived human beta-defensins (H beta Ds) are known to be important factors in the regulation of colonic mucosal barrier function and inflammation. We hypothesized that bile acids regulate colonic H beta D expression and aimed to t ...

A novel two-compartment barrier model for investigating nanoparticle transport in fish intestinal epithelial cells

Kristin Schirmer, Laura Sigg

We introduce a novel in vitro rainbow trout intestinal barrier model and demonstrate its suitability for investigating nanoparticle transport across the intestinal epithelium. Rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) intestinal cells (RTgutGC) were grown as mon ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...
