Role Of Notch Signalling In Intestinal Stem Cell Renewal01:12

Role Of Notch Signalling In Intestinal Stem Cell Renewal

2.1K
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...

The JAK-STAT Signaling Pathway01:20

The JAK-STAT Signaling Pathway

9.0K
Several cytokine receptors have tightly bound Janus kinase or JAK proteins attached at their cytosolic tail. Small signaling molecules such as cytokines, growth hormones, or prolactins bind to the cytokine receptors and initiate their dimerization. The dimerization brings the cytosolic JAKs together that trans-phosphorylate and activates each other. The activated JAKs now phosphorylate cytosolic tails of the cytokine receptors, which serve as binding sites for adaptor proteins such as  SH2...

Renewal of Intestinal Stem Cells01:23

Renewal of Intestinal Stem Cells

2.6K
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

2.3K
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.

MAPK Signaling Cascades01:07

MAPK Signaling Cascades

5.7K
Mitogen-activated protein kinase, or MAPK pathway, activates three sequential kinases to regulate cellular responses such as proliferation, differentiation, survival, and apoptosis. The canonical MAPK pathway starts with a mitogen or growth factor binding to an RTK. The activated RTKs stimulate Ras, which recruits Raf or MAP3 Kinase (MAPKKK), the first kinase of the MAPK signaling cascade. Raf further phosphorylates and activates MEK or MAP2 Kinases (MAPKK), which in turn phosphorylates MAP...

Summary

Aberrant MUC13 signaling, often seen in inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), disrupts intestinal barrier function. MUC13 plays a dual role in colitis, with MUC1 acting as a collaborator in barrier dysfunction.

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Molecular Biology
  • Immunology

Background:

  • Overexpression of transmembrane mucin MUC13 is observed in inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD).
  • MUC13 overexpression may impact epithelial barrier function, a critical factor in IBD pathogenesis.
  • The role of MUC13 in inflammation-induced intestinal barrier disruption requires further elucidation, particularly its interaction with MUC1.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate how inflammation-induced MUC13 disrupts epithelial barrier integrity in IBD.
  • To explore the signaling pathways involved in MUC13-mediated barrier dysfunction.
  • To determine the role of MUC1 in this process and its expression in IBD patients.

Main Methods:

  • RNA sequencing and permeability assays in MUC1/MUC13 siRNA-transfected cells stimulated with IL-22.
  • In vivo studies using DSS-induced colitis models in wildtype and Muc13 knockout mice.
  • Analysis of MUC13, its regulators, and barrier mediators in IBD patient samples.

Main Results:

  • Mucin knockdown affected barrier mediator gene expression during inflammation.
  • IL-22-induced MUC13 expression impaired barrier function via JAK1/STAT3, SNAI1/ZEB1, and ROCK2/MAPK pathways, with MUC1 cooperation.
  • MUC13 was protective in acute DSS colitis but detrimental in chronic colitis; associated pathways were altered in IBD patients.

Conclusions:

  • Aberrant MUC13 signaling actively induces intestinal barrier dysfunction during inflammation.
  • MUC1 acts as a collaborating partner with MUC13 in promoting barrier dysfunction.
  • These findings highlight MUC13 as a potential therapeutic target for IBD.
