The majority of clinical cases of iron overload is caused by mutations in the HFE gene. However, the role that HFE plays in the physiology of intestinal iron absorption remains enigmatic. Two major models have been proposed: 1) HFE exerts its effects on iron homeostasis indirectly, by modulating the expression of hepcidin; and 2) HFE exerts its effects directly, by changing the iron status (and therefore the iron absorptive activity) of intestinal enterocytes. The first model places the primary role of HFE in the liver (hepatocytes and/or Kupffer cells). The second model places the primary role in the duodenum (crypt cells or villus enterocytes). These models are not mutually exclusive, and it is possible that HFE influences the iron status in each of these cell populations, leading to cell type-specific downstream effects on intestinal iron absorption and body iron distribution. 相似文献

How does iron enter enterocytes? Ablating SLC11A2, the gene for the divalent metal ion transporter DMT1, supports evidence from the Belgrade rat and mk mouse models establishing DMT1 as the primary mechanism serving apical uptake of nonheme iron. DMT1 harnesses the energy from the proton electrochemical potential gradient to drive active transport of Fe(2+) (and perhaps Mn(2+) and other metal ions) into enterocytes. Fe(III) must first be reduced by ascorbic acid and surface ferrireductases. Among these is duodenal cytochrome B (DcytB), but lack of an obvious phenotype in DcytB (Cybrd1) knockout mice suggests ferrireductase redundancy. Our understanding of heme absorption has lagged, but the time is ripe for gains. 相似文献

The mucosa of excised pieces of jejunum of fasting rats was exposed for 10 min to fresh chyme obtained from other rats which had been digesting either buttered bread or bread alone. The mucosa was then processed for electron microscopy of lipid material. After exposure to fatty chyme, fat globules were scattered throughout the cytoplasm of absorptive epithelial cells, and concentrated in both supranuclear and infranuclear components of the Golgi apparatus. They were also present within lymphatics of the villus. After exposure to both types of chyme, the basal parts of the cells were much elongated through collection of a finely granular deposit of non-lipid material. This collection was probably due to failure of clearance of absorbed material from the cells in the absence of blood flow through the villus. 相似文献

Transport of iron and transferrin synthesis by the seminiferous epithelium of the rat in vivo 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The transport of radioactive iron across the seminiferous tubules was analyzed in vivo by light-microscope quantitative radioautography. At 5 min after a single intratesticular injection of 55Fe-transferrin, a strong labeling of the basal aspect of the seminiferous epithelium was observed. Between 30 min and 2 h, the labeling on the basal aspect of the seminiferous epithelium decreased. This decrease was accompanied by a substantial increase of the radioautographic reaction over the cellular elements in the adluminal compartment. These results were consistent with the demonstration of 59Fe associated with meiotic spermatocytes and differentiating spermatids isolated by velocity sedimentation from testes injected with 59Fe-transferrin. Furthermore, after a single intratesticular injection of 59Fe-labeled human transferrin, radiolabeled rat transferrin was immunoprecipitated from homogenates of isolated tubules with a specific antibody and appeared as a single radioactive band on fluorographs of urea/polyacrylamide gels. Similarly, 59Fe-labeled rat transferrin but not 125I-transferrin was immunoprecipitated from rete testis fluids of testes infused with either 59Fe- or 125I-labeled human transferrin. Finally, the synthesis of testicular transferrin in vivo was demonstrated in fluorographs of immunoprecipitated transferrin after an intratesticular injection of 35S-methionine in rats whose livers were excluded from the general circulation by ligation of both the hepatic artery and the portal vein. Thus, our results demonstrated a unidirectional system of iron transport from the basal compartment of the seminiferous epithelium to the germ cells in the adluminal compartment involving two distinct transferrins, i.e., a serum transferrin and a testicular transferrin synthesized by the seminiferous epithelium. 相似文献

Duodenal enterocytes adjust intestinal iron absorption to the body's state of iron repletion. Here we tested how iron supply from the blood modulates the RNA-binding activity of iron regulatory proteins (IRP-1 and IRP-2) in immature duodenal rat enterocytes, and whether the modulation is compatible with the hypothesis that IRPs, in turn, may regulate the expression of iron transport proteins in maturating enterocytes during migration to the villus tips. Tissue uptake of parenterally applied 59Fe along the duodenal crypt-villus axis was compared to local IRP-1 and IRP-2 activity and to duodenal 59Fe transport capacity 12 h, 48 h, and 72 h after intravenous iron administration to iron-deficient rats. IRP-1 and IRP-2 activity was significantly increased in iron-deficiency. 59Fe administrated from the blood side was almost exclusively taken up by crypt enterocytes. Accordingly, the activity of IRP-1 decreased at this site 12 h after parenteral iron administration, but remained high at the villus tips. After 48 h the bulk of 59Fe containing enterocytes had migrated to the villus tips. Correspondingly, IRP-1 activity was decreased at duodenal villus tips after 48 h. IRP-2 activity also tended to decrease, though the change was statistically not significant. IRP-2 activity remained significantly higher at duodenal villus tips than in crypts, even after 72 h. Intestinal iron absorption capacity decreased with the same delay as IRP-1 activity after intravenous iron administration. In the ileum 59Fe uptake from the blood and IRP activity showed no significant difference between crypt and villus region. Luminal administration of iron decreased duodenal IRP-1 and IRP-2 activity at tips and crypts within 2 h. Thus, recently absorbed iron becomes available to cytosolic IRP during its passage through the enterocyte. Our results are compatible with a role of IRPs in gearing the expression of intestinal iron transporters in the duodenal brushborder to the body's state of iron repletion. 相似文献

The peritrophic membrane (pm) of teneral female tsetse flies, Glossina morsitans morsitans, did not extend to the full length of the midgut 1-12 hr after emergence. The ingested blood did not reach the posterior part of the midgut (p-part), and the crop still contained food 12 hr after feeding. In these flies, the p-part contained the remains of the larval gut, the meconium, and bacteria. Ferritin molecules fed to tsetse females together with human serum were only found in the endoperitrophic space of the gut. This electron-dense tracer did not penetrate and cross the pm. On the other hand, ingested peroxidase passed the pm, and was transported through intercellular clefts, the basal labyrinth and the basal lamina to the hemolymph. This uptake was observed in the anterior part and to a smaller extent in the middle part of the midgut within 2 hr after feeding. Peroxidase was incorporated from the hemolymph into fat body cells, where it was found 2 hr and later after feeding. Pinocytosis of the tracer molecules, as an additional intracellular pathway to the intercellular route of transport, could not be demonstrated. 相似文献

T cell receptor-gamma allele-specific selection of V gamma 1/V delta 4 cells in the intestinal epithelium 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Previous genetic analyses have shown that the relative representation of subsets of gammadelta intestinal intraepithelial lymphocytes (i-IELs) is influenced by genes linked to the TCRgamma, TCRdelta, and MHC loci. Here, we have analyzed V-gene use in gammadelta i-IELs from C57BL/6 (B6) and C57BL/10 (B10) mice and from their F(1) and F(2) progenies with a larger panel of Vgamma- and Vdelta-specific mAbs and have shown that the influence of TCRgamma-linked genes operates at two levels: one influencing the representation of Vgamma1 (or Vgamma7) i-IELs and other acting specifically on the Vgamma1/Vdelta4 i-IEL subset, which represents 3% and 15% of the gammadelta i-IELs in B6 and B10 mice, respectively. Analysis of mice transgenic for a rearranged Vgamma1Jgamma4Cgamma4 chain of B6 origin demonstrated that the TCRgamma-linked genes influencing the representation of the Vgamma1/Vdelta4 i-IEL subset are the structural genes of TCRgamma chains. This influence is allele specific and cell autonomous, as evidenced by the different behavior of Vgamma1/Vdelta4 cells bearing either parental allele in F(1) mice. The representation of Vgamma1/Vdelta4 cells among gammadelta thymocytes is similar in B6 and B10 mice, demonstrating that the Vdelta4 chain can pair well with both alleles of the Vgamma1Jgamma4Cgamma4 chain and strongly suggesting that a cellular selection mechanism is responsible for the observed differences. The Vgamma1-Jgamma4 junctional amino acid sequences of B6 Vgamma1/Vdelta4 i-IELs are diverse but display less variation in length than those found in similar cells from B10 mice, indicating that B6 Vgamma1/Vdelta4 cells are the target of this cellular selection event. 相似文献

Phosphoenolpyruvate was transported through the erythrocyte membrane at low pH (4.5-6.5). The influx was observed not only in an iso-osmotic sucrose medium, but also in 0.1 M-citrate solution, but it was negligible in an iso-osmotic NaC1 solution. Efflux, however, was observed in both the sucrose and NaC1 solutions. Compounds derived from phosphoenolpyruvate by replacing the methene group by similarly hydrophobic groups such as hydrogen or the methyl group were permeant but those with the hydrophilic hydroxymethyl group were impermeant. This transport was inhibited by the treatment with 4-acetamido-4'-isothiocyanostilbene-2,2'-disulphonic acid or pyridoxal phosphate/NaBH4, which are known to be specific for the transport of anions such as C1-, SO42- and HPO42-. It showed saturation kinetics with respect to phosphoenolpyruvate concentration in the medium. These results suggest that the transport of phosphoenolpyruvate is mediated by the anion-transport system. Although phosphoenolpyruvate was transported against the concentration gradient, the transport was characterized as a passive transport, and this apparent uphill transport was interpreted by the Donnan equilibrium. 相似文献

Using a polymerase chain reaction-based strategy, we have detected the expression of nine different homeobox genes in adult mouse intestine. Included among these are the recently described intestine-specific Cdx-1 gene and a new, related gene, Cdx-2. Southern blot experiments show that Cdx-2 is present in a single copy in the mouse genome. Of several adult mouse tissues assayed, intestine was the only one that contained detectable levels of Cdx-2 mRNA. Expression of all nine homeobox genes in different regions of the intestine was quantitated by RNase protection analysis, which revealed a unique expression profile for each gene. These observations suggest that homeobox gene expression may play an important role in cellular differentiation in the adult intestine. 相似文献
