Abstract. The development of peroxisomes and expression of their enzymes were investigated in differentiating intestinal epithelial cells during their migration along the crypt-villus axis. Sequential cell populations harvested by a low-temperature method were identified by microscopy, determination of alkaline phosphatase and sucrase activities and incorporation of [3 H]-thymidine into DNA. Ultrastructural cytochemistry after staining for catalase activity, revealed the presence of peroxisomes in undifferentiated stem cells located in the crypt region. Morphometry indicated that the number of these organelles increased as intestinal epithelial cells differentiate. Catalase activity was higher in the crypt cells than in the mature enterocytes harvested from villus tips. On the other hand, an increasing gradient of activity was observed from crypts to villus tips for peroxisomal oxidases, i.e. fatty acyl coA oxidase, D-amino acid oxidase and polyamine oxidase. These findings indicate that biogenesis of peroxisomes occurs during migration of intestinal epithelial cells along the crypt-villus axis and that peroxisomal oxidases contribute substantially to the biochemical maturation of enterocytes. 相似文献

Intestinal epithelium undergoes a rapid self-renewal process characterized by the proliferation of the crypt cells, their differentiation into mature enterocytes as they migrate up to the villi, followed by their shedding as they become senescent villus enterocytes. The exact mechanism that regulates the intestinal epithelium renewal process is not well understood, but the differential expression of regulatory genes along the crypt-villus axis may have a role. Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) is involved in endothelial cell cycle progression, but its role in the intestinal epithelial cell turnover has not been explored. With its effects on cell proliferation and its differential expression along the crypt-villus axis, HO-1 may play a role in the intestinal epithelial cell renewal process. In this study, we examined the role of HO-1 in the proliferation and differentiation of Caco-2 cells, a well-established in vitro model for human enterocytes. After confluence, Caco-2 cells undergo spontaneous differentiation and mimic the crypt to villus maturation observed in vivo. In preconfluent and confluent Caco-2 cells, HO-1 protein expression was determined with the immunoblot. HO-1 activity was determined by the ability of the enzyme to generate bilirubin from hemin. The effect of a HO-1 enzyme activity inhibitor, tin protoporphyrin (SnPP), on Caco-2 cell proliferation and differentiation was examined. In preconfluent cells, cell number was determined periodically as a marker of proliferation. Cell viability was measured with MTT assay. Cell differentiation was assessed by the expression of a brush border enzyme, alkaline phophatase (ALP). HO-1 was expressed in subconfluent Caco-2 cells and remained detectable until 2 days postconfluency. This timing was consistent with cells starting their differentiation and taking the features of normal intestinal epithelial cells. HO-1 was inducible in confluent Caco-2 cells by the enzyme substrate, hemin in a dose- and time-dependent manner. SnPP decreased the cell number and viability of preconfluent cells and delayed the ALP enzyme activity of confluent cells. HO-1 may be involved in intestinal cell cycle progression. 相似文献

Gut apical Na(+)-glucose cotransporter 1 (SGLT1) activity is high at the birth and during suckling, thus contributing substantially to neonatal glucose homeostasis. We hypothesize that neonates possess high SGLT1 maximal activity by expressing apical SGLT1 protein along the intestinal crypt-villus axis via unique control mechanisms. Kinetics of SGLT1 activity in apical membrane vesicles, prepared from epithelial cells sequentially isolated along the jejunal crypt-villus axis from neonatal piglets by the distended intestinal sac method, were measured. High levels of maximal SGLT1 uptake activity were shown to exist along the jejunal crypt-villus axis in the piglets. Real-time RT-PCR analyses showed that SGLT1 mRNA abundance was lower (P < 0.05) by 30-35% in crypt cells than in villus cells. There were no significant differences in SGLT1 protein abundances on the jejunal apical membrane among upper villus, middle villus, and crypt cells, consistent with the immunohistochemical staining pattern. Higher abundances (P < 0.05) of total eukaryotic initiation factor 4E (eIF4E) protein and eIE4E-binding protein 1 γ-isoform in contrast to a lower (P < 0.05) abundance of phosphorylated (Pi) eukaryotic elongation factor 2 (eEF2) protein and the eEF2-Pi to total eEF2 abundance ratio suggest higher global protein translational efficiency in the crypt cells than in the upper villus cells. In conclusion, neonates have high intestinal apical SGLT1 uptake activity by abundantly expressing SGLT1 protein in the epithelia and on the apical membrane along the entire crypt-villus axis in association with enhanced protein translational control mechanisms in the crypt cells. 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

Gene expression of activin, activin receptors, and follistatin was investigated in vivo and in vitro using semiquantitative RT-PCR in intestinal epithelial cells. Rat jejunum and the intestinal epithelial cell line IEC-6 expressed mRNA encoding the betaA-subunit of activin, alpha-subunit of inhibin, activin receptors IB and IIA, and follistatin. An epithelial cell isolation study focused along the crypt-villus axis in rat jejunum showed that betaA mRNA levels were eight- to tenfold higher in villus cells than in crypt cells. Immunohistochemistry revealed the expression of activin A in upper villus cells. The human intestinal cell line Caco-2 was used as a differentiation model of enterocytes. Four- to fivefold induction of betaA mRNA was observed in postconfluent Caco-2 cells grown on filter but not in those cells grown on plastic. In contrast, follistatin mRNA was seen to be reduced after reaching confluence. Exogenous activin A dose-dependently suppressed the proliferation and stimulated the expression of apolipoprotein A-IV gene, a differentiation marker, in IEC-6 cells. These results suggest that the activin system is involved in the regulation of such cellular functions as proliferation and differentiation in intestinal epithelial cells. 相似文献

Although intestinal (I) and liver (L) fatty acid binding proteins (FABP) have been widely studied, the physiological significance
of the presence of the two FABP forms (I- and L-FABP) in absorptive cells remains unknown as do the differences related to
their distribution along the crypt-villus axis, regional expression, ontogeny and regulation in the human intestine. Our morphological
experiments supported the expression of I- and L-FABP as early as 13 weeks of gestation. Whereas cytoplasmic immunofluorescence
staining of L-FABP was barely detectable in the lower half of the villus and in the crypt epithelial cells, I-FABP was visualized
in epithelial cells of the crypt-villus axis in all intestinal segments until the adult period in which the staining was maximized
in the upper part of the villus. Immunoelectron microscopy revealed more intense labeling of L-FABP compared with I-FABP,
accompanied with a heterogeneous distribution in the cytoplasm, microvilli and basolateral membranes. By western blot analysis,
I- and L-FABP at 15 weeks of gestation appeared predominant in jejunum compared with duodenum, ileum, proximal and distal
colon. Exploration of the maturation aspect documented a rise in L-FABP in adult tissues. Permanent transfections of Caco-2
cells with I-FABP cDNA resulted in decreased lipid export, apolipoprotein (apo) biogenesis and chylomicron secretion. Additionally,
supplementation of Caco-2 with insulin, hydrocortisone and epidermal growth factor differentially modulated the expression
of I- and L-FABP, apo B-48 and microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP), emphasizing that these key proteins do not
exhibit a parallel modulation. Overall, our findings indicate that the two FABPs display differences in localization, regulation
and developmental pattern. 相似文献

Integrins are important mediators of cell-laminin interactions. In the small intestinal epithelium, which consists of spatially separated proliferative and differentiated cell populations located, respectively, in the crypt and on the villus, laminins and laminin-binding integrins are differentially expressed along the crypt-villus axis. One exception to this is the integrin alpha(6)beta(4), which is thought to be ubiquitously expressed by intestinal cells. However, in this study, a re-evaluation of the beta(4) subunit expression with different antibodies revealed that two forms of beta(4) exist in the human intestinal epithelium. Furthermore, we show that differentiated enterocytes express a full-length 205-kDa beta(4)A subunit, whereas undifferentiated crypt cells express a novel beta(4)A subunit that does not contain the COOH-terminal segment of the cytoplasmic domain (beta(4)A(ctd-)). This new form was not found to arise from alternative beta(4) mRNA splicing. Moreover, we found that these two beta(4)A forms can associate into alpha(6)beta(4)A complexes; however, the beta(4)A(ctd-) integrin expressed by the undifferentiated crypt cells is not functional for adhesion to laminin-5. Hence, these studies identify a novel alpha(6)beta(4)A(ctd-) integrin expressed in undifferentiated intestinal crypt cells that is functionally distinct. 相似文献

The migration of intestinal epithelial cells from the crypts to the tips of villi is associated with progressive cell differentiation. The changes in Ca2+-ATPase activity and ATP-dependent Ca2+-transport rates in basolateral membranes from rat duodenum were measured during migration along the crypt-villus axis. In addition, vitamin D-dependent calcium-binding protein and calmodulin content were measured in homogenates of six cell populations which were sequentially derived from villus tip to crypt base. Alkaline phosphatase activity was highest at the tip of the villus (fraction I) and decreased more than 20-fold towards the crypt base (fraction VI). (Na+ + K+)-ATPase activity also decreased along the villus-crypt axis but in a less pronounced manner than alkaline phosphatase. ATP-dependent Ca2+-transport in basolateral membranes was highest in fraction II (8.2 +/- 0.3 nmol Ca2+/min per mg protein) and decreased slightly towards the villus tip and base (fraction V). The youngest cells in the crypt had the lowest Ca2+-transport activity (0.9 +/- 0.1 nmol Ca2+/min per mg protein). The distribution of high-affinity Ca2+-ATPase activity in basolateral membranes correlated with the distribution of ATP-dependent Ca2+-transport. The activity of Na+/Ca2+ exchange was equal in villus and crypt basolateral membranes. Compared to the ATP-dependent Ca2+-transport system, the Na+/Ca2+ exchanger is of minor importance in villus cells but may play a more significant role in crypt cells. Calcium-binding protein decreased from mid-villus towards the villus base and was undetectable in crypt cells. Calmodulin levels were equal along the villus-crypt axis. It is concluded that vitamin D-dependent calcium absorption takes primarily place in villus cells of rat duodenum. 相似文献

cDNA microarray technology enables detailed analysis of gene expression throughout complex processes such as differentiation. The aim of this study was to analyze the gene expression profile of normal human intestinal epithelial cells using cell models that recapitulate the crypt-villus axis of intestinal differentiation in comparison with the widely used Caco-2 cell model. cDNA microarrays (19,200 human genes) and a clustering algorithm were used to identify patterns of gene expression in the crypt-like proliferative HIEC and tsFHI cells, and villus epithelial cells as well as Caco-2/15 cells at two distinct stages of differentiation. Unsupervised hierarchical clustering analysis of global gene expression among the cell lines identified two branches: one for the HIEC cells versus a second comprised of two sub-groups: (a) the proliferative Caco-2 cells and (b) the differentiated Caco-2 cells and closely related villus epithelial cells. At the gene level, supervised hierarchical clustering with 272 differentially expressed genes revealed distinct expression patterns specific to each cell phenotype. We identified several upregulated genes that could lead to the identification of new regulatory pathways involved in cell differentiation and carcinogenesis. The combined use of microarray analysis and human intestinal cell models thus provides a powerful tool for establishing detailed gene expression profiles of proliferative to terminally differentiated intestinal cells. Furthermore, the molecular differences between the normal human intestinal cell models and Caco-2 cells clearly point out the strengths and limitations of this widely used experimental model for studying intestinal cell proliferation and differentiation. 相似文献

We examined the cell-specific subcellular expression patterns for sodium- and potassium-coupled chloride (NaK2Cl) cotransporter 1 (NKCC1), Na(+) bicarbonate cotransporter (NBCe1), cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), and Na(+)/H(+) exchanger 3 (NHE3) to understand the functional plasticity and synchronization of ion transport functions along the crypt-villus axis and its relevance to intestinal disease. In the unstimulated intestine, all small intestinal villus enterocytes coexpressed apical CFTR and NHE3, basolateral NBCe1, and mostly intracellular NKCC1. All (crypt and villus) goblet cells strongly expressed basolateral NKCC1 (at approximately three-fold higher levels than villus enterocytes), but no CFTR, NBCe1, or NHE3. Lower crypt cells coexpressed apical CFTR and basolateral NKCC1, but no NHE3 or NBCe1 (except NBCe1-expressing proximal colonic crypts). CFTR, NBCe1, and NKCC1 colocalized with markers of early and recycling endosomes, implicating endocytic recycling in cell-specific anion transport. Brunner's glands of the proximal duodenum coexpressed high levels of apical/subapical CFTR and basolateral NKCC1, but very low levels of NBCe1, consistent with secretion of Cl(-)-enriched fluid into the crypt. The cholinergic agonist carbachol rapidly (within 10 min) reduced cell volume along the entire crypt/villus axis and promoted NHE3 internalization into early endosomes. In contrast, carbachol induced membrane recruitment of NKCC1 and CFTR in all crypt and villus enterocytes, NKCC1 in all goblet cells, and NBCe1 in all villus enterocytes. These observations support regulated vesicle traffic in Cl(-) secretion by goblet cells and Cl(-) and HCO(3)(-) secretion by villus enterocytes during the transient phase of cholinergic stimulation. Overall, the carbachol-induced membrane trafficking profile of the four ion transporters supports functional plasticity of the small intestinal villus epithelium that enables it to conduct both absorptive and secretory functions. 相似文献

The epithelium of the small intestine is composed of a single layer of cells that line two functionally distinct compartments, the villi that project into the lumen of the gut and the crypts that descend into the underlying connective tissue. Stem cells are located in crypts, where they divide and give rise to transit-amplifying cells that differentiate into secretory and absorptive epithelial cells. Most differentiated cells travel upwards from the crypt towards the villus tip, where they shed into the lumen. While some of these cell behaviors are an intrinsic property of the epithelium, it is becoming evident that tight coordination between the epithelium and the underlying fibroblasts plays a critical role in tissue morphogenesis, stem-cell niche maintenance and regionalized gene expression along the crypt-villus axis. Here, we will review the current literature describing the interaction between epithelium and fibroblasts during crypt-villus axis development and intestinal epithelium renewal during homeostasis. 相似文献

Summary— Peroxisomes are essential in cellular metabolism as their dysgenesis or defects in single enzymes or impairment of multiple peroxisomal enzymatic functions have been found in several inherited metabolic diseases with serious clinical sequelae. The assembly and formation of these cytoplasmic organelles constitute a major and intringuing research topic. In the present study the biogenesis of peroxisomes and the developmental patterns of their enzymes have been reviewed during embryonic and/or post-embryonic ontogenesis of lower (amphibians) and higher (avians, mammals) vertebrates. In developing vertebrates, epithelial cell differentiation is accompanied by increases in frequency and size of peroxisomes. The tissue-specific expression of peroxisomal enzymes contributes substantially to the biochemical maturation of epithelial cells. The relationship between biogenesis of peroxisomes, expression of peroxisomal enzymes and structural and functional cellular phenotype has also been investigated in differentiating epithelial cells along the crypt-villus axis of the adult rat intestine. Cytochemical studies at the ultrastructural level have provided evidence that peroxisomes are already present in proliferating cells of the intestinal crypt region before they begin to differentiate. Migration and differentiation of intestinal epithelial cells from crypt to villus compartments are marked by significant increases in number and size of catalase-positive structures. Increasing activity gradients from crypt to surface areas are found for the peroxisomal oxidases examined (enzymes of the peroxisomal β-oxidation system, d -amino acid oxidase and polyamine oxidase). Thus, peroxisomes are more and more involved in oxidative metabolic pathways as intestinal epithelial cells differentiate. Finally, we have analyzed the peroxisomal behaviour in human neoplastic epithelial cells. The presence of peroxisomes has been cytochemically revealed in human breast and colon carcinomas. Peroxisomal enzyme specific activities are significantly lower in human breast and colon carcinomas than in the adjacent healthy mucosa. Furthermore, a relationship is found between the specific activities of some peroxisomal enzymes and the histological tumour grades. 相似文献
