Role Of Notch Signalling In Intestinal Stem Cell Renewal01:12

Role Of Notch Signalling In Intestinal Stem Cell Renewal

2.5K
Notch signaling was first discovered in Drosophila melanogaster, where it is involved in cell lineage differentiation. Notch signaling regulates the maintenance and differentiation of intestinal stem cells or ISCs by controlling the expression of atonal homolog 1 or Atoh1. Atoh1 directs cells to differentiate into secretory cells.
Direct cell-to-cell contact is needed for the activation of Notch signaling. The signal is initiated when a notch ligand binds to a receptor on an adjacent cell, also...

Regulation of Angiogenesis and Blood Supply01:24

Regulation of Angiogenesis and Blood Supply

3.7K
Rapidly dividing tumors, embryos, and wounded tissues require more oxygen than usual, lowering the oxygen concentration in the blood. At low oxygen or hypoxic conditions, an oxygen-sensitive transcription factor called the hypoxia-inducible factor 1 or HIF1 is activated. HIF1 is a dimeric protein of alpha (ɑ) and beta (β) subunits.  Under optimal oxygen conditions, HIF1β is present in the nucleus while HIF1ɑ remains in the cytosol. HIF1ɑ is hydroxylated by prolyl...

Renewal of Intestinal Stem Cells01:23

Renewal of Intestinal Stem Cells

3.3K
The intestinal epithelial lining rapidly renews every 4 to 5 days. The renewal is facilitated by intestinal stem cells (ISCs) located at the base of the crypt– a gland located at the bottom of each villus. ISCs divide asymmetrically to form new stem cells and progenitor daughter cells. The daughter cells are called transit-amplifying (TA) cells which move upwards along the crypt and either differentiate into absorptive cells– the enterocytes or secretory cells– including the...

Role of Ephrin-Eph Signalling in Intestinal Stem Cell Renewal01:22

Role of Ephrin-Eph Signalling in Intestinal Stem Cell Renewal

2.7K
Erythropoietin-producing hepatocellular carcinoma receptor (Eph) and its ligand, Eph receptor-interacting protein (Ephrin) were first discovered in the human carcinoma cell line, hence the name. Ephrin-Eph interaction guides cells to reach their appropriate location in adult tissues. They also play an essential role in the immune system by helping in immune cell migration, adhesion, and activation. Based on their structure and function, Eph is divided into two classes — EphA and EphB.

Gastritis-II: Pathophysiology01:17

Gastritis-II: Pathophysiology

1.4K
Gastritis is marked by disruption of the mucosal barrier that usually protects the stomach tissue from digestive juices and manifests in acute and chronic forms.
In acute gastritis, the gastric mucosa becomes swollen and red and undergoes superficial erosion. Superficial ulceration may lead to bleeding.
In chronic gastritis, persistent or repeated insults lead to chronic inflammatory changes and, eventually, thinning or atrophy of the gastric tissue.
Gastritis can stem from various causes, each...

NF-κB-dependent Signaling Pathway02:26

NF-κB-dependent Signaling Pathway

10.1K
The transcription factor NF-κB was discovered in 1986 in the lab of Nobel laureate Professor David Baltimore, for its interaction with the immunoglobulin light chain enhancer in B-cells. After more than three decades of study, it is now evident that NF-κB regulates the expression of over 100 genes. Most of these genes play an essential role in the innate and adaptive immune responses as well as the inflammatory responses of animals.

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Immunology
  • Molecular Biology

Background:

  • Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) involves compromised epithelial barrier function, allowing antigen entry and inflammation.
  • Inflammation in IBD leads to tissue hypoxia, affecting cellular processes.
  • Hypoxia inactivates prolyl hydroxylase domain (PHD) enzymes, stabilizing hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF).

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the role of hypoxia-sensitive pathways in IBD pathogenesis.
  • To explore the therapeutic potential of targeting hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) in IBD.

Main Methods:

  • Review of IBD pathophysiology focusing on epithelial barrier function and hypoxia.
  • Analysis of the molecular mechanisms linking hypoxia, PHD enzymes, and HIF.
  • Examination of preclinical data on pharmacological hydroxylase inhibition in colitis models.

Main Results:

  • Mucosal hypoxia in IBD stabilizes HIF, inducing barrier-protective genes.
  • Pharmacological inhibition of hydroxylase enzymes shows protective effects in colitis.
  • Enhanced intestinal epithelial barrier function is mediated by HIF-1-dependent gene expression.

Conclusions:

  • Targeting hypoxia-sensitive pathways, particularly HIF stabilization, is a promising therapeutic strategy for IBD.
  • Enhancing intestinal epithelial barrier function via HIF activation may mitigate IBD.
  • Further research into hypoxia-targeted therapies for IBD is warranted.
