Synopsis Rectal biopsies from subjects with a normal rectum and from patients with various forms of inflammatory bowel disease were studied by the prolonged osmication technique. No consistent ultrastructural differences were observed between these groups, but there were striking differences between individual epithelial cells in the same biopsy and between the epithelium and the cells of the lamina propria. The Golgi apparatus was demonstrated occasionally in the epithelium, often in endothelium. Endoplasmic reticulum, perinuclear cisterna and mitochondria were variably outlined. In plasma cells, there were striking differences in osmiophilia.The underlying mechanism of the different staining patterns is not clear. The findings do not appear to help in the differential diagnosis of inflammatory bowel disease nor to shed any new light on their underlying pathogenic mechanisms. 相似文献

Colon and rectal mucosal crypt epithelium is a rapidly renewing cell population, where cell proliferation is normally balanced by cell loss. This report concerns the putative paracrine action of transforming growth factor alpha(TGF-alpha) in this homeostatic process. Immunohistochemical staining for proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and TGF-alpha was performed on biopsy specimens of rectal mucosa taken from consenting patients. The height of the proliferative compartment in mid-axially sectioned crypts in each individual was determined from the distribution of PCNA stained cells. The number of TGF-alpha stained cells that exhibited intense positive staining in a continuous column from the mouth down the side of the crypt was also scored in each individual patient. There was a significant positive correlation (P=0.05,n =22 patients) between the height of the proliferative compartment and the number of cells staining for TGF-alpha. Non-cellular TGF-alpha reactivity was also observed in the lamina propria adjacent to the TGF-alpha reactive epithelial cells, indicating secretion of TGF-alpha by these epithelial cells. These findings suggest that TGF-alpha is released from epithelial cells in the upper compartment of the crypt into the adjacent lamina propria and then diffuses to the epithelial cells in the lower part of the crypt, resulting in expansion of the proliferative compartment. 相似文献

The histochemical distribution of hyaluronan was analysed in various urogenital organs of male and female (non-pregnant and pregnant) rats by use of a hyaluronan-binding protein and avidin biotin/peroxidase staining. Microwave-aided fixation was used to preserve the extracellular location of hyaluronan. The concentrations of hyaluronan in the different tissues were measured with a highly sensitive radio-assay. Hyaluronan accumulated predominantly in the connective tissue around smooth muscle fibres and in the subepithelial lamina propria. Abundant hyaluronan also occurred in perivascular and perineural connective tissue. In the female urogenital organs, hyaluronan content was high in the vagina and urinary bladder, and highest in the vagina during pregnancy. In the uterus, the surface epithelium of the endometrium stained intensely. In the ovary, the zona pellucida of the oocyte and the theca interna cell layer of the follicles and the follicular fluid of mature follicles exhibited prominent staining. The corpus luteum was devoid of hyaluronan, whereas enlarged corpora lutea of pregnancy exhibited weak, patchy staining. In male urogenital organs, staining for hyaluronan was absent from the testis and epididymis, whereas the erectile connective tissue of the penis stained intensely. The hyaluronan concentrations were high in penile tissue and urinary bladder, while testis, epididymis and the ductus deferens contained only little hyaluronan. 相似文献

Background. Helicobacter pylori has generally been observed only in the gastric mucous layer or in the spaces between gastric mucus -s ecreting cells and not in the gastric epithelial cells or in the lamina propria. The purpose of this study is to determine whether H. pylori invades the gastric mucosa, using an immunoelectron microscopical examination of human gastric mucosa infected with H. pylori.
Materials and Methods. Five hundred gastric antral biopsy specimens were fixed in a periodate-lysin-paraformaldehyde solution, embedded in Lowicryl, sectioned, and examined with a light microscope. One hundred specimens moderately or severely infected with H. pylori were selected and were incubated with polyclonal rabbit anti– H. pylori antibody. The specimens were washed, incubated with 20 nm of colloidal gold–conjugated goat anti–rabbit IgG, stained with uranyl acetate and lead citrate, and observed with a transmission electron microscope.
Results. In one case, a bacterium was observed within the cytoplasm of a gastric mucus -s ecreting cell; in another case, a few bacteria were observed within the cytoplasm of a stromal cell in the lamina propria. The bacteria could be differentiated from degenerated intracellular organelles by gold particles attached to the bacteria.
Conclusion. H. pylori rarely invade the lamina propria and gastric cells. 相似文献

Fibroblasts are important effector cells having a potential role in augmenting the inflammatory responses in various diseases. In infantile diarrhea caused by enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC), the mechanism of inflammatory reactions at the mucosal site remains unknown. Although the potential involvement of fibroblasts in the pathogenesis of cryptococcus-induced diarrhea in pigs has been suggested, the precise role of lamina propria fibroblasts in the cellular pathogenesis of intestinal infection and inflammation caused by EPEC requires elucidation. Earlier we reported the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced cell proliferation, and collagen synthesis and downregulation of nitric oxide in lamina propria fibroblasts. In this report, we present the profile of cytokines and adhesion molecules in the cultured and characterized human small intestinal lamina propria fibroblasts in relation to neutrophil migration and adhesion in response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) extracted from EPEC 055:B5. Upon interaction with LPS (1-10 micrograms/ml), lamina propria fibroblasts produced a high level of proinflammatory mediators, interleukin (IL)-1alpha, IL-1beta, IL-6, IL-8, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha and cell adhesion molecules (CAM) such as intercellular cell adhesion molecule (ICAM), A-CAM, N-CAM and vitronectin in a time-dependent manner. LPS induced cell-associated IL-1alpha and IL-1beta, and IL-6, IL-8 and TNF-alpha as soluble form in the supernatant. Apart from ICAM, vitronectin, A-CAM, and N-CAM proteins were strongly induced in lamina propria fibroblasts by LPS. Adhesion of PBMC to LPS-treated lamina propria fibroblasts was ICAM-dependent. LPS-induced ICAM expression in lamina propria fibroblasts was modulated by whole blood, PBMC and neutrophils. Conditioned medium of LPS-treated lamina propria fibroblasts remarkably enhanced the neutrophil migration. The migration of neutrophils was inhibited by anti-IL-8 antibody. Co-culture of fibroblasts with neutrophils using polycarbonate membrane filters exhibited time-dependent migration of neutrophils. These findings indicate that the coordinate production of proinflammatory cytokines and adhesion molecules in lamina propria fibroblasts which do not classically belong to the immune system can influence the local inflammatory reactions at the intestinal mucosal site during bacterial infections and can influence the immune cell population residing in the lamina propria. 相似文献

Expression, localization, and functional activity of TL1A, a novel Th1-polarizing cytokine in inflammatory bowel disease 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
Bamias G Martin C Marini M Hoang S Mishina M Ross WG Sachedina MA Friel CM Mize J Bickston SJ Pizarro TT Wei P Cominelli F 《Journal of immunology (Baltimore, Md. : 1950)》2003,171(9):4868-4874
TL1A is a novel TNF-like factor that acts as a costimulator of IFN-gamma secretion through binding to the death domain-containing receptor, DR3. The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that TL1A may play an important role in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) by functioning as a Th1-polarizing cytokine. The expression, cellular localization, and functional activity of TL1A and DR3 were studied in intestinal tissue specimens as well as isolated lamina propria mononuclear cells from IBD patients and controls. TL1A mRNA and protein expression was up-regulated in IBD, particularly in involved areas of Crohn's disease (CD; p < 0.03 vs control). TL1A production was localized to the intestinal lamina propria in macrophages and CD4(+) and CD8(+) lymphocytes from CD patients as well as in plasma cells from ulcerative colitis patients. The amount of TL1A protein and the number of TL1A-positive cells correlated with the severity of inflammation, most significantly in CD. Increased numbers of immunoreactive DR3-positive T lymphocytes were detected in the intestinal lamina propria from IBD patients. Addition of recombinant human TL1A to cultures of PHA-stimulated lamina propria mononuclear from CD patients significantly augmented IFN-gamma production by 4-fold, whereas a minimal effect was observed in control patients. Our study provides evidence for the first time that the novel cytokine TL1A may play an important role in a Th1-mediated disease such as CD. 相似文献

CONTEXT: Lymphatic vessels are believed to be absent in the colon above the level of the mucularis mucosae. However, in our experience, lymphatic vessels are sometimes identifiable within the lamina propria in the setting of inflammation and neoplasia.OBJECTIVE: We sought to assess the presence of lymphatics within the colonic lamina propria in neoplastic and inflammatory conditions using the lymphatic endothelium-specific immunohistochemical marker D2-40.DESIGN: Representative sections of normal colon, inflamed colon, hyperplastic polyps, inflammatory polyps, adenomatous polyps, adenomatous polyps containing intramucosal carcinoma, and invasive colonic adenocarcinomas were subjected to immunohistochemical staining with D2-40. The presence of immunopositive lymphatic vessels was assessed. Lymphatic density within the lamina propria was calculated quantitatively, and the presence of inflammation was graded subjectively on a four-tiered scale (0-3).RESULTS: Lymphatics were not identified within the lamina propria of normal colon. However, lymphatics were identified within the lamina propria in the majority of cases with neoplasia and/or inflammation. Additionally, there was a non-significant trend toward higher lymphatic vessel density in cases with increasing inflammation.CONCLUSIONS: Lymphatic vessels are present within the lamina propria of colon in pathologic states, including cases of intramucosal carcinoma. This “aberrant” lymphangiogenesis is likely to be driven by inflammation and/or neoplasia. 相似文献

The localization of prostaglandin (PG) endoperoxide synthase in bovine intestine was examined immunocytochemically with polyclonal antibody raised against PG endoperoxide synthase purified from bovine seminal glands. The most intense positive staining reaction for the enzyme was present in mast cells. Mast cells were found to be widely distributed in the intestinal wall, and were particularly numerous in the lamina propria. Most of the mast cells in the lamina propria of the intestinal villi were elongated and oriented with their long axis parallel to the plane of the absorptive epithelium. In whole mount preparations of jejunal villi, mast cells were seen to form a two-dimensional network in the lamina propria. In addition to mast cells, smooth muscle cells of the inner circular muscle layer and muscularis mucosae, nerve cells and fibers, endothelial cells of arterioles, and serosal epithelial cells also showed faint to moderate staining for the enzyme. These results suggested that mast cells are the major source of PGs in the bovine intestinal wall. The characteristic arrangement of mast cells in the intestinal villi may be related to their functions in this portion of the bovine intestine. 相似文献

Synopsis Antibody against Type I collagen was raised in rabbits and purified by immunoadsorption on Sepharose-conjugated Types I and III collagen. The cross-reactivity of purified antibody to Type III collagen was found to be less than 0.5% by passive haemagglutination and less than 1.5% by radioimmunoassay. When paraffin sections of fixed and decalcified pig molars were incubated with purified antibody to Type I collagen, varying degrees of staining were observed in the ligament, gingiva, bone and cementum. The periodontal ligament adjacent to bone was more widely stained than that adjacent to cementum in some regions, whereas in others, no difference in staining could be discerned between the two halves of the ligament. The lamina propria of gingiva was stained, and this appeared to be most intense in the vicinity of the overlying epithelium. The fibrous component in the endosteal spaces, the dentine and the extracellular coronal elements in the pulp were generally stained. The impression obtained from the staining pattern is that Type I collagen is not restricted to particular regions of the periodontal ligament or the lamina propria of the gingiva. 相似文献

The local immunity was studied using 31 biopsy samples obtained during bronchoscopy from patients with various forms of chronic bronchitis. Attenuated IgA synthesis by plasmatic cells of bronchial mucosa lamina propria and increased LgG synthesis were established. Enhanced IgG production and penetration of various agents into bronchial mucosa lamina propria cause local immunocomplex reaction involving microcirculatory bed and resulting in perivascular sclerosis. Repeated damaging and sclerotic processes lead to disconnection of epithelial-stromal links and altered cover epithelium differentiation. The role of immunopathologic reactions in the formation of vicious circle underlying morphogenesis of chronic bronchitis is suggested. 相似文献

Although IL-17 is a pro-inflammatory cytokine reportedly involved in various autoimmune inflammatory disorders, its role remains unclear in murine models of colitis. Acute colitis was induced by 2.5% dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) treatment for 5 days. A novel sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor agonist W-061, a prototype of ONO-4641, was orally administered daily, and histopathological analysis was performed on the colon. The number of lymphocytes and their cytokine production were also evaluated in spleen, mesenteric lymph node, Peyer's patch and lamina propria of the colon. Daily administration of W-061 resulted in improvement of DSS-induced colitis, and significantly reduced the number of CD4+ T cells in the colonic lamina propria. Numbers of both Th17 and Th1 cells were reduced by W-061 treatment. W-061, however, had no influence on the number of Treg cells in lamina propria. Thus, Th17 and Th1 cells in lamina propria were thought to be the key subsets in the pathogenesis of DSS-induced colitis. In conclusion, W-061 may be a novel therapeutic strategy to ameliorate acute aggravation of inflammatory bowel diseases. 相似文献

Urocortin is a newly identified member of the CRF neuropeptide family. Urocortin has been found to bind with high affinity to CRF receptors. The present study investigated urocortin and CRF receptor expression in human colonic mucosa. Non-pathologic sections of adult colorectal tissues were obtained from patients with colorectal cancer at surgery. Urocortin expression was examined using immunohistochemistry and messenger (m) RNA in situ hybridization. Isolated lamina propria mononuclear cells (LPMC) and epithelial cells were also analyzed by flow cytometry for the characterization of urocortin-positive cells, and by RT-PCR for detection of urocortin, CRF, and CRF receptor mRNA. Urocortin peptide distribution at various stages of human development (n = 35, from 11 weeks of gestation to 6 years of age) was examined by immunohistochemistry using surgical and autopsy specimens. Immunoreactive urocortin and urocortin mRNA were predominantly detected in lamina propria macrophages. Urocortin peptide expression was detected from as early as three months of age, but not before birth or in neonates. Urocortin, CRF receptor type 1 and type 2 mRNA were detected in LPMC. CRF receptor type 2β mRNA, a minor isoform in human tissues, was also detected in LPMC, but at lower levels. Urocortin is locally synthesized in lamina propria macrophages and may act on lamina propria inflammatory cells as an autocrine/paracrine regulator of the mucosal immune system. The appearance of urocortin after birth indicates that the exposure to dietary intake and/or luminal bacteria after birth may contribute to the initiation of urocortin expression in human gastrointestinal tract mucosa. 相似文献

Dendritic cells are prime antigen presenting cells for stimulation of T cell immune responses. These cells are present in
trace amounts in normal tissue. At sites of disease the increased frequency of these cells interacting with T cells may provide
the basis for the release of pro-inflammatory mediators and contribute to localised cell and tissue damage. Studies on dendritic
cells in the colon lamina propria of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) mice have been limited due to the difficulties encountered
in the isolation and purification of sufficient numbers of these cells. This is the first detailed, reproducible method provided
in the literature for the isolation of colon lamina propria dendritic cells from mice with colitis, yielding optimum purity
of cells and sufficient numbers to advance the study of dendritic cell function in the colons of mice. The most frequently
used identification marker of murine DC is the CD11c surface antigen. We have adapted, combined, and improved procedures developed
for the isolation of other cell types, to develop an efficient procedure for the isolation of dendritic cells from colon tissue.
This protocol describes a step-by-step method for optimising the purity and recovery of lamina propria CD11c+ dendritic cells
from mice colons. 相似文献

Summary Mast cells in the tongue, mesentery and lamina propria of the duodenal mucosa in normal and 48/80-treated rats were observed at different time intervals. The tissues were studied comparatively after staining with toluidine blue, acridine orange or alcian bluesafranin. Under the experimental conditions used, the mast cells in the tongue and mesentery showed constant positive reactions to toluidine blue and acridine orange, both of which failed to demonstrate the presence of mast cells in the lamina propria of the duodenal mucosa. The combined alcian blue-safranin stain elicited a safranin-positive reaction in the mast cells of the tongue and mesentery and an alcian blue reaction in those of the lamina propria of the duodenal mucosa. This alcianophilia of the duodenal mast cells was not affected by compound 48/80. On the other hand, the safranin stain of the tongue and mesentery mast cells was altered to alcian blue by the drug. The results are discussed in the light of recent developments in mast cell research.This work was supported by grant MA-2236 of the Medical Research Council of Canada. 相似文献

Following intraperitoneal injection of the zinc ion chelator dithizone into Atlantic salmon Salmo salar , staining and morphological changes in intestinal eosinophiic granule cells (EGC) were observed in both cryo-preserved and chemical-preserved tissue sections. In cryo sections rapid and selective vital staining of EGC was observed within 5 min of dithizone injection. Intensely stained red granules appeared as a result of the formation of a complex between dithizone and zinc ions. Stained EGC appeared on both sides of the stratum compactum as well as in the lamina propria . Stained EGC started to disintegrate 5 min after the injection of dithizone, and little of the zinc-dithizone complex was observed 15 h later. The disappearance of the stain coincided with an intense degranulation and disintegration of EGC. Fifteen hours after dithizone treatment regenerating cells were observed in Masson's trichrome stained sections. Four to five days after injection, a fully regenerated continuous EGC layer was observed. Simultaneously with the disintegration of EGC an increase in plasma lysozyme activity occurred. EGC resembles mammalian Paneth cells in their possession of lysozymecontaining granules and their staining by, and response to, dithizone. EGC may represent a central component of zinc metabolism in Atlantic salmon. 相似文献

Seven illustrative cases of gastritis of the herniated stomach in patients with sliding esophageal hiatus hernia are reported. Five had superficial gastritis (three mild, one moderate and one severe); two had atrophic gastritis. Gastritis was present in two patients whose mucosa appeared normal at esophagoscopy. Interstitial hemorrhage into the lamina propria was present in four of the seven biopsy specimens. The possibility that interstitial hemorrhage may be related to the development of gastric erosions is considered. The pathogenesis of this form of gastritis is discussed. 相似文献
