Role Of Notch Signalling In Intestinal Stem Cell Renewal01:12

Role Of Notch Signalling In Intestinal Stem Cell Renewal

2.2K
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...

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.

Renewal of Intestinal Stem Cells01:23

Renewal of Intestinal Stem Cells

2.7K
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...

Receptor Downregulation in MVBs01:15

Receptor Downregulation in MVBs

2.1K
Multivesicular bodies (MVBs) are mature endosomes that sort ubiquitinated proteins and then fuse with lysosomes to degrade the sorted proteins. Epidermal growth factor (EGF) and its receptor (EGFR) form a complex that can be internalized through endocytosis, sorted into an MVB, and later degraded.
The EGFR can initiate signaling pathways that  lead to cell proliferation, migration, and differentiation. Overexpression of EGFR  stimulates cells to proliferate. Excessive  EGFR...

Stem Cell Niche01:26

Stem Cell Niche

5.3K
The stem cell niche is the dynamic microenvironment where stem cells reside. Inside these niches, the cells may remain undifferentiated, undergo high self-renewal, or become lineage-specific progenitors. Stem cells coexist with other niche cells, such as stromal cells. They also interact closely with the ECM. Cell-cell and cell-matrix communication occur via adhesion molecules or soluble factors that signal the stem cells and determine their fate. Stromal cells also provide survival signals to...

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology and Immunology
  • Single-cell genomics
  • Autoimmune disorders

Background:

  • Celiac disease (CeD) is a prevalent autoimmune disorder affecting the small intestine.
  • Understanding the cellular dynamics in CeD is crucial for developing targeted therapies.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To create the most comprehensive single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) dataset in CeD to date.
  • To characterize cellular and interactional changes in the duodenal tissue of CeD patients compared to controls.

Main Methods:

  • Collected 203,555 cells from 21 active CeD and 11 control duodenal samples.
  • Utilized scRNA-seq to analyze differential gene expression, cell abundance, and cell-cell interactions.
  • Investigated fibroblast, myeloid, and lymphoid cell contributions to epithelial changes.

Main Results:

  • Identified significant single-cell differential changes in cell abundance and gene expression in CeD.
  • Observed increased stem/crypt and secretory epithelial cells, with decreased absorptive enterocytes, indicating crypt hyperplasia and villus atrophy.
  • Found increased abundance and activity of NRG1 and SMOC2 fibroblasts, supporting epithelial reprogramming.

Conclusions:

  • CeD involves complex T-myeloid-stromal-epithelial cell communication.
  • Fibroblast-mediated support of epithelial reprogramming, influenced by IL-1β and IFN-γ, is a key mechanism in CeD.
  • This dataset provides insights into tissue-level cellular dynamics in response to gluten.
