Neutrophil transepithelial migration is a central component of many inflammatory diseases of the gastrointestinal, respiratory and urinary tracts, and correlates with disease symptoms. In vitro modeling with polarized intestinal epithelial monolayers has shown that neutrophil transepithelial migration can influence crucial epithelial functions, ranging from barrier maintenance to electrolyte secretion. Studies have also demonstrated a dynamic involvement of the epithelium in modulating neutrophil transepithelial migration. Characterization of the molecular interactions between neutrophils and epithelial cells has revealed that transepithelial migration is dependent on the neutrophil β2 integrin CD11b/CD18, and does not appear to involve adhesive interactions with the selectins or intercellular adhesion molecule-1. Recent studies have implicated another transmembrane glycoprotein, CD47, as a crucial component of the transepithelial migration response. While the precise function of CD47 is not known, current evidence suggests that CD47-dependent events occur after CD11b/CD18-mediated neutrophil adhesion to the epithelium. This review will highlight key features of the current understanding of the molecular events important in neutrophil migration across epithelial surfaces. 相似文献

The formation and maintenance of complex organs requires segregation of distinct cell populations into defined territories (that is, cell sorting) and the establishment of boundaries between them. Here we have investigated the mechanism by which Eph/ephrin signalling controls the compartmentalization of cells in epithelial tissues. We show that EphB/ephrin-B signalling in epithelial cells regulates the formation of E-cadherin-based adhesions. EphB receptors interact with E-cadherin and with the metalloproteinase ADAM10 at sites of adhesion and their activation induces shedding of E-cadherin by ADAM10 at interfaces with ephrin-B1-expressing cells. This process results in asymmetric localization of E-cadherin and, as a consequence, in differences in cell affinity between EphB-positive and ephrin-B-positive cells. Furthermore, genetic inhibition of ADAM10 activity in the intestine of mice results in a lack of compartmentalization of Paneth cells within the crypt stem cell niche, a defect that phenocopies that of EphB3-null mice. These results provide important insights into the regulation of cell migration in the intestinal epithelium and may help in the understanding of the nature of the cell sorting process in other epithelial tissues where Eph-ephrin interactions play a central role. 相似文献

Migration is a complex process for epithelial tissues, because the epithelium must move as an intact sheet to preserve its barrier function. The requirement for structural integrity is met by coupling cell-to-matrix and cell-to-cell adhesion at the cellular level, and by coordinating cell proliferation and cell migration in the tissue as a whole. Proliferation is suppressed at the migrating cell front, allowing cells in this region to remain tightly packed while advancing rapidly. At the same time, proliferation is enhanced in a region behind the advancing cell front to expand the epithelial cell sheet. This review considers the extracellular signals and intracellular signaling pathways that regulate these processes in the lens and corneal epithelium, with emphasis on the commonalities that link these tissues. 相似文献

Listeria monocytogenes causes invasive disease by crossing the intestinal epithelial barrier. This process depends on the interaction between the bacterial surface protein Internalin A and the host protein E-cadherin, located below the epithelial tight junctions at the lateral cell-to-cell contacts. We used polarized MDCK cells as a model epithelium to determine how L. monocytogenes breaches the tight junctions to gain access to this basolateral receptor protein. We determined that L. monocytogenes does not actively disrupt the tight junctions, but finds E-cadherin at a morphologically distinct subset of intercellular junctions. We identified these sites as naturally occurring regions where single senescent cells are expelled and detached from the epithelium by extrusion. The surrounding cells reorganize to form a multicellular junction that maintains epithelial continuity. We found that E-cadherin is transiently exposed to the lumenal surface at multicellular junctions during and after cell extrusion, and that L. monocytogenes takes advantage of junctional remodeling to adhere to and subsequently invade the epithelium. In intact epithelial monolayers, an anti-E-cadherin antibody specifically decorates multicellular junctions and blocks L. monocytogenes adhesion. Furthermore, an L. monocytogenes mutant in the Internalin A gene is completely deficient in attachment to the epithelial apical surface and is unable to invade. We hypothesized that L. monocytogenes utilizes analogous extrusion sites for epithelial invasion in vivo. By infecting rabbit ileal loops, we found that the junctions at the cell extrusion zone of villus tips are the specific target for L. monocytogenes adhesion and invasion. Thus, L. monocytogenes exploits the dynamic nature of epithelial renewal and junctional remodeling to breach the intestinal barrier. 相似文献

Despite significant advances in our understanding of the roles of the cytoskeleton and matrix receptors in cell locomotion, derived largely fromin vitrostudies on the movement of epithelial cell sheets and isolated cells, the mechanism of epithelial cell migration in the adult intestine remains an enigma. The primary function of the epithelial cell cytoskeleton seems to be in the maintenance of the apical region of the epithelium facing the gut lumen. There we find the brush border, with its associated enzymes, and the intercellular adhesion complexes that give the epithelium its cohesiveness and its barrier function. Curiously, there is little in the way of an organized cytoskeleton in the basal region of the epithelium adjacent to the basement membrane on which the epithelium is presumed to migrate. In this short review, I focus on what is known about epithelial migration from our understanding of the structure of the epithelium and from studies on wound healing, and indicate some avenues for future study. 相似文献

In human intestinal disease induced by Salmonella typhimurium, transepithelial migration of neutrophils (PMN) rapidly follows attachment of the bacteria to the epithelial apical membrane. In this report, we model those interactions in vitro, using polarized monolayers of the human intestinal epithelial cell, T84, isolated human PMN, and S. typhimurium. We show that Salmonella attachment to T84 cell apical membranes did not alter monolayer integrity as assessed by transepithelial resistance and measurements of ion transport. However, when human neutrophils were subsequently placed on the basolateral surface of monolayers apically colonized by Salmonella, physiologically directed transepithelial PMN migration ensued. In contrast, attachment of a non-pathogenic Escherichia coli strain to the apical membrane of epithelial cells at comparable densities failed to stimulate a directed PMN transepithelial migration. Use of the n-formyl-peptide receptor antagonist N-t-BOC-1-methionyl-1-leucyl-1- phenylalanine (tBOC-MLP) indicated that the Salmonella-induced PMN transepithelial migration response was not attributable to the classical pathway by which bacteria induce directed migration of PMN. Moreover, the PMN transmigration response required Salmonella adhesion to the epithelial apical membrane and subsequent reciprocal protein synthesis in both bacteria and epithelial cells. Among the events stimulated by this interaction was the epithelial synthesis and polarized release of the potent PMN chemotactic peptide interleukin-8 (IL-8). However, IL-8 neutralization, transfer, and induction experiments indicated that this cytokine was not responsible for the elicited PMN transmigration. These data indicate that a novel transcellular pathway exists in which subepithelial PMN respond to lumenal pathogens across a functionally intact epithelium. Based on the known unique characteristics of the intestinal mucosa, we speculate that IL-8 may act in concert with an as yet unidentified transcellular chemotactic factor(s) (TCF) which directs PMN migration across the intestinal epithelium. 相似文献

Summary The role of connective tissue in metamorphic changes of the small intestinal epithelium inXenopus laevis tadpoles was investigated by using organ culture techniques and electron microscopy. Tissue fragments isolated from various parts of the small intestine at stage 57 were cultivated. Larval cell death of the epithelium was induced by thyroid hormone in all fragments, whereas adult epithelial development was observed only in fragments isolated from the anterior intestinal region containing the typhlosole where most of the larval connective tissue was localized. The epithelium was then cultivated in recombination with homologous or heterologous non-epithelial components. The adult epithelium developed only in recombinants containing a thick connective tissue layer from the typhlosole. There was no regional difference in the developmental potency of the epithelium itself. In all explants where adult epithelium developed, the connective tissue increased in cell density just beneath the epithelium, which was rapidly proliferating and forming typical islets. At the same time, fibroblasts possessing well-developed rough endoplasmic reticulum differentiated close to epithelial cells and often made contact with them. These results indicate that the connective tissue originating from the typhlosole plays an important role in adult epithelial development of the anuran small intestine, probably via direct cell-to-cell contacts or some factor(s) synthesized by the fibroblasts. 相似文献

Background. Integrins are transmembrane αβ heterodimer receptors that function as structural and functional bridges between the cytoskeleton and ECM (extracellular matrix) molecules. The RGD (arginine‐glycine‐aspartate tripeptide motif)‐dependent integrin α8β1 has been shown to be involved in various cell functions in neuronal and mesenchymal‐derived cell types. Its role in epithelial cells remains unknown. Results. Integrin α8β1 was found to be expressed in the crypt cell population of the human intestine but was absent from differentiating and mature epithelial cells of the villus. The function of α8β1 in epithelial crypt cells was investigated at the cellular level using normal HIECs (human intestinal epithelial cells). Specific knockdown of α8 subunit expression using an shRNA (small‐hairpin RNA) approach showed that α8β1 plays important roles in RGD‐dependent cell adhesion, migration and proliferation via a RhoA/ROCK (Rho‐associated kinase)‐dependent mechanism as demonstrated by active RhoA quantification and pharmacological inhibition of ROCK. Moreover, loss of α8β1, through RhoA/ROCK, impairs FA (focal adhesion) complex integrity as demonstrated by faulty vinculin recruitment. Conclusions. Integrin α8β1 is expressed in epithelial cells. In intestinal crypt cells, α8β1 is closely involved in the regulation of adhesion, migration and cell proliferation via a predominant RhoA/ROCK‐dependent mechanism. These results suggest an important role for this integrin in intestinal crypt cell homoeostasis. 相似文献

Membranous epithelial cells (M cells) of the follicle-associated epithelium in Peyer’s patches have a high capacity for transcytosis
of several viruses and microorganisms. Here, we report that we have successfully established a bovine intestinal epithelial
cell line (BIE cells) and developed an in vitro M cell model. BIE cells have a cobblestone morphology and microvilli-like
structures, and strongly express cell-to-cell junctional proteins and cytokeratin, which is a specific intermediate filament
protein of epithelial cells. After co-culture with murine intestinal lymphocytes or treatment with supernatant from bovine
PBMC cultured with IL-2, BIE cells acquired the ability of transcytosis. Therefore, BIE cells have typical characteristics
of bovine intestinal epithelial cells and also have the ability to differentiate into an M cell like linage. In addition,
our results indicate that contact between immune cells and epithelial cells may not be absolutely required for the differentiation
of M cells. We think that BIE cells will be useful for studying the transport mechanisms of various pathogens and also the
evaluation of drug delivery via M cells. 相似文献

Eph-ephrin signalling in adult tissues and cancer 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Eph receptor tyrosine kinases and their ligands, the ephrins, play key roles in the regulation of migration and cell adhesion during development, thereby influencing cell fate, morphogenesis and organogenesis. Recent findings suggest that Eph signalling also controls the architecture and physiology of different tissues in the adult body under normal and pathological conditions such as cancer. A prime example is the intestinal epithelium where EphB-ephrinB interactions regulate both cell positioning and tumor progression. Here, we will review recent advances on the role of Eph-ephrin signalling in the intestine and other organs. 相似文献

Laminins are a multigene family of extracellular matrix molecules. Quantitatively, they are one of the most abundant glycoproteins present in basement membranes. Functionally, they can modulate several key biological activities, including cell adhesion and migration, gene expression and cell survival. Variability in the spatial and temporal expression of laminins, as well as of their specific receptors of the integrin family, in various tissues and organs, suggests that different laminins perform distinct functions. This article focuses on the human intestinal epithelium as a paradigm to illustrate the potential relationship between laminin-cell interactions and the cell state. This rapidly renewing epithelium consists of spatially separated proliferative and differentiated cell populations located in the crypts and on the villi, respectively. Differential distributions of the various laminins and laminin-binding integrins have been observed along the crypt-villus axis in both the developing and the adult intestine, and important alterations in the pattern of laminin expression have been reported in various intestinal pathologies, such as tufting enteropathy, Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, and colorectal cancer. More-direct approaches, including experimentation with in vitro and in vivo models, have provided evidence in support of a role for laminins in intestinal cell functions. Although further work is still needed, laminins emerge more and more as key regulators of specific cell functions important in both intestinal health and intestinal disease. 相似文献

CD11b/CD18-dependent interactions of neutrophils with intestinal epithelium are mediated by fucosylated proteoglycans 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
CD11b/CD18-mediated adhesive interactions play a key role in regulating polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN)) migration across intestinal epithelium. However, the identity of epithelial ligands for migrating PMN remains obscure. In this study we investigated the role of carbohydrates in mediating adhesive interactions between T84 intestinal epithelial cells and CD11b/CD18 purified from PMN. Fucoidin, heparin/heparin sulfate, N-acetyl-D-glucosamine, mannose-6-phosphate, and laminarin were found to inhibit adhesion of T84 cells to CD11b/CD18. The most potent inhibitory effects were observed with fucoidin (50% inhibition at 1-5 x 10(-8) M). Binding assays demonstrated that fucoidin directly bound to CD11b/CD18 in a divalent cation- and sulfation-dependent fashion that was blocked by anti-CD11b mAbs. Experiments employing CD11b/CD18 as a probe to blot T84 cell fucosylated proteins purified via fucose-specific lectin column revealed several candidate CD11b/CD18 binding proteins with molecular masses of 95, 50, 30, 25, and 20 kDa. Fucosidase treatment of T84 cells resulted in significantly reduced cell adhesion to CD11b/CD18, while no inhibition was observed after neuraminidase treatment. Finally, significant inhibition of T84 cell adhesion to CD11b/CD18 was observed after blocking cell proteoglycan synthesis with p-nitrophenyl-beta-D-xylopyranoside. These findings implicate epithelial cell surface proteoglycans decorated with sulfated fucose moieties as ligands for CD11b/CD18 during PMN migration across mucosal surfaces. 相似文献

In mammalian pregnancy, the uterus is remodeled to become receptive to embryonic implantation. Since non‐invasive placentation in marsupials is likely derived from invasive placentation, and is underpinned by intra‐uterine conflict between mother and embryo, species with non‐invasive placentation may employ a variety of molecular mechanisms to maintain an intact uterine epithelium and to prevent embryonic invasion. Identifying such modifications to the uterine epithelium of marsupial species with non‐invasive placentation is key to understanding how conflict is mediated during pregnancy in different mammalian groups. Desmoglein‐2, involved in maintaining lateral cell–cell adhesion of the uterine epithelium, is redistributed before implantation to facilitate embryo invasion in mammals with invasive placentation. We identified localization patterns of this cell adhesion molecule throughout pregnancy in two marsupial species with non‐invasive placentation, the tammar wallaby (Macropus eugenii; Macropodidae), and the brushtail possum (Trichosurus vulpecula; Phalangeridae). Interestingly, Desmoglein‐2 redistribution also occurs in both M. eugenii and T. vulpecula, suggesting that cell adhesion, and thus integrity of the uterine epithelium, is reduced during implantation regardless of placental type, and may be an important component of uterine remodeling. Desmoglein‐2 also localizes to the mesenchymal stromal cells of M. eugenii and to epithelial cell nuclei in T. vulpecula, suggesting its involvement in cellular processes that are independent of adhesion and may compensate for reduced lateral adhesion in the uterine epithelium. We conclude that non‐invasive placentation in marsupials involves diverse and complementary strategies to maintain an intact epithelial barrier. 相似文献

Background
Following damage to the intestinal epithelium, restoration of epithelial barrier integrity is triggered by a robust proliferative response. In other tissues, focal adhesion kinase (FAK) regulates many of the cellular processes that are critical for epithelial homeostasis and restitution, including cell migration, proliferation and survival. However, few studies to date have determined how FAK contributes to mucosal wound healing in vivo.Methodology and Principal Findings
To examine the role of FAK in intestinal epithelial homeostasis and during injury, we generated intestinal epithelium (IE)-specific conditional FAK knockout mice. Colitis was induced with dextran-sulfate-sodium (DSS) and intestinal tissues were analyzed by immunohistochemistry and immunoblotting. While intestinal development occurred normally in mice lacking FAK, FAK-deficient animals were profoundly susceptible to colitis. The loss of epithelial FAK resulted in elevated p53 expression and an increased sensitivity to apoptosis, coincident with a failure to upregulate epithelial cell proliferation. FAK has been reported to function as a mechanosensor, inducing cyclin D1 expression and promoting cell cycle progression under conditions in which tissue/matrix stiffness is increased. Collagen deposition, a hallmark of inflammatory injury resulting in increased tissue rigidity, was observed in control and FAK knockout mice during colitis. Despite this fibrotic response, the colonic epithelium in FAK-deficient mice exhibited significantly reduced cyclin D1 expression, suggesting that proliferation is uncoupled from fibrosis in the absence of FAK. In support of this hypothesis, proliferation of Caco-2 cells increased proportionally with matrix stiffness in vitro only under conditions of normal FAK expression; FAK depleted cells exhibited reduced proliferation concomitant with attenuated cyclin D1 expression.Conclusions
In the colon, FAK functions as a regulator of epithelial cell survival and proliferation under conditions of mucosal injury and a mechanosensor of tissue compliance, inducing repair-driven proliferation in the colonic epithelium through upregulation of cyclin D1. 相似文献16.

Human colon epithelial cells express the G protein-coupled receptor CCR6, the sole receptor for the chemokine CCL20 (also termed MIP-3). CCL20 produced by intestinal epithelial cells is upregulated in response to proinflammatory stimuli and microbial infection, and it chemoattracts leukocytes, including CCR6-expressing immature myeloid dendritic cells, into sites of inflammation. The aim of this study was to determine whether CCR6 expressed by intestinal epithelial cells acts as a functional receptor for CCL20 and whether stimulation with CCL20 alters intestinal epithelial cell functions. The human colon epithelial cell lines T84, Caco-2, HT-29, and HCA-7 were used to model colonic epithelium. Polarized intestinal epithelial cells constitutively expressed CCR6, predominantly on the apical side. Consistent with this, apical stimulation of polarized intestinal epithelial cells resulted in tyrosine phosphorylation of the p130 Crk-associated substrate (Cas), an adaptor/scaffolding protein that localizes in focal adhesions and has a role in regulating cytoskeletal elements important for cell attachment and migration. In addition, CCL20 stimulation inhibited agonist-stimulated production of the second messenger cAMP and cAMP-mediated chloride secretory responses by intestinal epithelial cells. Inhibition was abrogated by pertussis toxin, consistent with signaling through Gi proteins that negatively regulate adenylyl cyclases and cAMP production. These data indicate that signaling events, occurring via the activation of the apically expressed chemokine receptor CCR6 on polarized intestinal epithelial cells, alter specialized intestinal epithelial cell functions, including electrogenic ion secretion and possibly epithelial cell adhesion and migration.

Together with animal experiments, organotypical cell cultures are important models for analyzing cellular interactions of the mucosal epithelium and pathogenic mechanisms in the gastrointestinal tract. Here, we introduce a three-dimensional culture model from the adult mouse colon for cell biological investigations in an in vivo-like environment. These explant cultures were cultured for up to 2 weeks and maintained typical characteristics of the intestinal mucosa, including a high-prismatic epithelium with specific epithelial cell-to-cell connections, a basal lamina and various connective tissue cell types, as analyzed with immunohistological and electron microscopic methods. The function of the epithelium was tested by treating the cultures with dexamethasone, which resulted in a strong upregulation of the serum- and glucocorticoid-inducible kinase 1 similar to that found in vivo. The culture system was investigated in infection experiments with the fungal pathogen Candida albicans. Wildtype but not Deltacph1/Deltaefg1-knockout Candida adhered to, penetrated and infiltrated the epithelial barrier. The results demonstrate the potential usefulness of this intestinal in vitro model for studying epithelial cell-cell interactions, cellular signaling and microbiological infections in a three-dimensional cell arrangement. 相似文献

Cell migration is a critical step of normal developmental processes and disease progression. Often, migrating cells interact and maintain contact with neighboring cells. However, the precise roles of cell-cell adhesion in cell migration have thus far been poorly defined. Often in aggressive cancers, N-cadherin is prominently upregulated, yet, these highly motile cells have limited cell-cell adhesion when plated on a stiff 2D substrate. But, the same cells in a 3D matrix migrate as a multicellular cluster. This new observation suggests that N-cadherin-mediated cell-cell adhesion supports cell interactions between migrating cells in a more physiologically relevant 3D matrix, but not on a 2D substrate. While N-cadherin is an integral part of neural synapses, the ectopic expression of N-cadherin in transformed epithelial cells plays an equally important part in initiating pro-migratory signaling, and providing strong yet flexible cell cohesion essential for persistent cell migration in a 3D matrix. The 3D cell migration analysis for studying cell-to-cell interactions exposes the roles of N-cadherin in multicellular migration, and reveals novel insights into cell migration-dependent normal and pathological processes. 相似文献

Intestinal organoids were established as an ex vivo model of the intestinal epithelium. We investigated whether organoids resemble the intestinal epithelium in their microRNA (miRNA) profiles. Total RNA samples were obtained from crypt and villus fractions in murine intestine and from cultured organoids. Microarray analysis showed that organoids largely resembled intestinal epithelial cells in their miRNA profiles. In silico prediction followed by qRT-PCR suggested that six genes are regulated by corresponding miRNAs along the crypt-villus axis, suggesting miRNA regulation of epithelial cell renewal in the intestine. However, such expression patterns of miRNAs and their target mRNAs were not reproduced during organoids maturation. This might be due to lack of luminal factors and endocrine, nervous, and immune systems in organoids and different cell populations between in vivo epithelium and organoids. Nevertheless, we propose that intestinal organoids provide a useful in vitro model to investigate miRNA expression in intestinal epithelial cells. 相似文献
