Insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I and its binding protein IGF binding protein 5 (IGFBP-5) were highly expressed in inflamed and fibrotic intestine in experimental Crohn's disease. IGF-I induced proliferation and increased collagen synthesis by smooth muscle cells and fibroblasts/myofibroblasts in vitro. Here we studied IGF-I and IGFBP-5 in Crohn's disease tissue. Tissue was collected from patients undergoing intestinal resection for Crohn's disease. IGF-I and IGFBP-5 mRNAs were quantitated by RNase protection assay and Northern blot analysis, respectively. In situ hybridization was performed to localize mRNA expression, and Western immunoblot was performed to quantitate protein expression. IGF-I and IGFBP-5 mRNAs were increased in inflamed/fibrotic intestine compared with normal-appearing intestine. IGF-I mRNA was expressed in multiple cell types in the lamina propria and fibroblast-like cells of the submucosa and muscularis externa. IGFBP-5 mRNA was highly expressed in smooth muscle of the muscularis mucosae and muscularis externa as well as fibroblast-like cells throughout the bowel wall. Tissue IGFBP-5 protein correlated with collagen type I (r = 0.82). These findings are consistent with a mechanism whereby IGF-I acts on smooth muscle and fibroblasts/myofibroblasts to increase collagen synthesis and cellular proliferation; its effects may be modulated by locally expressed IGFBP-5. 相似文献

Light-microscopic histochemistry and conventional electron microscopy were used to study the changes to the subepithelial layers in the larval esophagus of the sea lamprey Petromyzon marinus during metamorphosis. During early stages of metamorphosis, smooth muscle cells of the muscularis mucosae and tunica muscularis dedifferentiate into myofibroblast-like cells, which make contact with the basal lamina of the overlying mucosal epithelium. During later stages, these myofibroblast-like cells redifferentiate into smooth muscle cells, reforming the muscularis mucosae and tunica muscularis. Alterations to the extracellular matrix occur concomitantly. 相似文献

Prostaglandins and inhibitors of prostaglandin synthesis have striking regulatory effects on intestinal muscularis externa. We suggested earlier that a population of macrophage-like cells, located between the external muscle layers might release prostaglandins with a local effect on enveloping interstitial cells of Cajal, postulated pacemaker cells of the gut. To determine cellular production site(s) of prostaglandin we applied monoclonal antibodies against prostaglandin H synthase combined with the PAP technique to sections of rabbit and guinea-pig small intestine and kidney. In rabbit small intestine muscle cells in the circular muscle layer and in the muscularis mucosae were positive, longitudinal muscle negative. Vascular endothelial cells and serosal mesothelial cells were stained. In guinea-pig all muscle layers were unstained but endothelial and mesothelial cells were stained together with unidentified cells in the outermost submucosa. In rabbit kidney, positive staining of collecting ducts, interstitial cells, the parietal layer of Bowman's capsule and arterial endothelial cells was present. Furthermore, we found prostaglandin synthase antigenicity in the epithelial cells lining the loop of Henle, not described before. In guinea-pig medullary collecting ducts were stained and the papilla was lined by stained epithelial cells. The results show a species variation in the distribution of recognizable levels of prostaglandin H synthase. The impressive reaction in the mesothelium must be considered, when enzyme distribution is examined biochemically with fractionated tissue. Our findings do not support our hypothesis that macrophage-like cells are more potent sources of prostaglandins than smooth muscle cells. 相似文献

The pattern of nerve cells and fibers containing calcitonin gene-related peptide immunoreactivity (CGRP-IR) was investigated in the canine digestive tract by means of immunohistochemistry. CGRP-IR nerve fibers innervate all the layers of the gut, including the vasculature, with different densities depending on the region. CGRP-IR processes are sparse in the esophagus and stomach, where they are mostly confined to the enteric plexuses and vasculature. CGRP-IR fibers are quite abundant in the small and large intestine, where they form dense arborizations in the mucosa, and are numerous in the muscularis mucosae, deep muscular plexus and circular muscle. The myenteric and submucous plexuses of the intestine contain dense networks of CGRP-IR fibers and numerous CGRP-IR ganglion cells. On the other hand, in the enteric ganglia of the esophagus and stomach, in the intrapancreatic ganglia and in the ganglionated plexus of the gallbladder, CGRP-IR is restricted to non-varicose processes. A moderate density of CGRP-IR fibers supplies the endocrine and exocrine pancreas, and the fibromuscular layer and lamina propria of the gallbladder. The density of CGRP innervation in different regions can be summarized as follows: intestine > pancreas and gallbladder > or = antrum > cardia > gastric corpus and distal esophagus. CGRP- and tachykinin (TK)-IRs are colocalized in a substantial population of fibers, particularly those distributed to the mucosa, muscularis mucosae and vasculature, whereas there was no evidence of colocalization in intrinsic ganglion cells. The present results suggest that (1) the CGRP innervation of the dog digestive system includes an intrinsic and an extrinsic component, and (2) CGRP- and TK-IRs are co-expressed in extrinsic nerve fibers. These findings extend previous observations in rats and guinea pigs and provide insights into the sites of action of CGRP in the digestive system of the dog, which has served as a model for CGRP functional studies. 相似文献

Prostaglandins exhibit a variety of actions on intestinal smooth muscle depending upon the type, dose and muscle layer studied. As the cellular origin of prostaglandin H (PGH) synthase has not been established with certainty in the human gut wall, we studied the localization of PGH synthase in the human duodenum, jejunum, ileum and colon by immunohistochemistry. PGH synthase immunoreactivity appeared to be similar in all segments of the intestine. Most smooth muscle cells seemed to contain PGH synthase; however, the reaction in the lamina muscularis mucosae was much stronger than in the longitudinal and circular muscle layers. Endothelial cells in capillaries and larger vessels showed a positive reaction. In addition, unidentified cells in subserosa, at the level of Auerbach's plexus and in the submucosa were stained. We concluded that the smooth muscle cells of the human gut has a rather large capacity for PGH synthesis and the present results may provide a basis for a better understanding of both normal physiological functions as well as intestinal disease states involving disorders of prostaglandin synthesis. 相似文献

Calcitonin-gene-related-peptide (CGRP)-like immunoreactivity was localized in nerve fibres, neuronal somata and in mucosal endocrine cells of the human small intestine. Immunoreactive enteric neurons were more numerous in the submucous plexuses than in the myenteric plexus. Morphologically, they predominantly had the appearance of type II neurons. The majority of the CGRP-like immunoreactive nerve fibres ran within the ganglionic nerve plexuses. Only a small proportion could be observed in the lamina propria, the lamina muscularis mucosae, or the circular and longitudinal outer smooth muscle layer. These findings suggest that within the wall of the human small intestine neuronal CGRP of either extrinsic or intrinsic origin exerts its effect chiefly on other enteric neurons, and might be indirectly involved in the regulatory functions of the human small intestine. 相似文献

The stomach of Oreochromis niloticus has three regions 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
The stomach of Oreochromis niloticus was divided into three distinct regions: initial, middle and terminal, corresponding roughly to the cardiac, fundic, and pyloric portions of the mammalian stomach. Grossly, the organ showed initial and terminal portions, the former connected to the distal part of the oesophagus and the latter to the proximal portion of the intestine. There was also a middle region, forming a large blind diverticulum communicating with the first two at their point of junction. The initial or cardiac region was shorter than the middle region but longer than the terminal one, and had a smooth surface devoid of gastric pits. The epithelium in this region was simple columnar devoid of goblet cells, with glandular regions in the lamina propria. The mucosa of the middle or fundic region had gastric pits lined by columnar epithelium, and simple tubular glands filled most of the lamina propria. The terminal or pyloric part of the stomach was very short and its mucosa was slightly folded and devoid of both gastric pits and mucous glandular cells. The lining epithelium of this portion of the stomach was simple columnar and a few goblet cells were seen at its junction with the first part of the intestine. The tunica muscularis of the stomach contained skeletal muscle in the initial and terminal regions, usually intermingled with smooth muscle fibres. Skeletal muscle fibres were also observed in the first portion of the small intestine, near the junction with the stomach. 相似文献

The gastrointestinal tracts of four Chelonia mydas hatchlings were examined at the anatomical, histological and ultrastructural level. Our results show that the gastrointestinal tract(GI) is composed by esophagus, stomach, small intestine(SI) and large intestine(LI), and histologically of mucosa, submucosa, muscularis externa(ME) and serosa. The esophagus is marked by conical papillae lined by keratinized stratified squamous epithelium, whereas the remaining GI by simple columnar epithelium; esophageal diverticulum is absent. The stomach covered with mucous granule cells, contains cardia, fundic regions and pylorus, which are separately characterized by cardiac glands, fundic glands and pyloric glands, and have the thickest submucosa and ME of the GI. The ME of the esophagus mainly consist of one layer of circular smooth muscle whereas the rest of GI of two layers, inner circular muscle and outer longitudinal muscle. The SI is slightly longer than the LI and the GI is approximately 5.11 times of the carapace length. The SI is lined with longitudinal zigzag folds and characterized by absorptive cells with longer and denser microvilli, whereas the LI by transversal folds, goblet cells and lymphoid nodules. Only intestinal glands appear in duodenum. Endocrine cells are observed in all sections of the GI and accounted for the largest proportion in duodenum. The results demonstrate a perfect combination of the structure and function of the GI and reveal that the digestion and absorption primarily occurs in the foregut. C. mydas hatchling may prefer carnivorous diet. 相似文献

Intramucosal smooth muscle cells surrounding the crypts and originating from the muscularis mucosae were observed in normal human and rat colon. Immunohistochemical techniques, using anti-desmin and anti-actin antibodies, along with ultrastructural procedures were employed to investigate the nature and distribution of these cells. Desmin-positive and actin-rich smooth muscle cells sprouting from the muscularis mucosae into the lamina propria and surrounding the crypts were observed both in rat and human colon. The intramucosal smooth muscle cells may play an important role in some pathophysiological conditions. 相似文献

The wall of the stomach of the tigerfish is described and compared with that of other vertebrates. Light microscopic and ultrastructural characteristics of the stomach wall correspond to a large extent to those of other vertebrates, although some differences are found. The mucosa contains (1) surface epithelium characterized by narrow columnar cells with abundant mucous granules; (2) gastric glands consisting of pepsinogenic cells of variable height, containing tubulovesicles and bearing microvilli; (3) five granulated cell types located basally in the epithelium (types 1–5); and (4) lamina propria and muscularis mucosae. Connective tissue separating smooth muscle fibers of the muscularis mucosae constitutes a stratum compactum. The submucosa contains a loose connective tissue, a tunica muscularis of inner circular and outer longitudinal layers, and a serosa of mesothelium and subjacent connective tissue. Immunocytochemical tests with antisera to five polypeptides show gastrin/cholecystokinin (CCK), vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP) immunoreactivities in some cells of the gastric glands, and somatostatin in cells lying among epithelial cells lining the gastric luminal surface or gastric pits. 相似文献

Development of the external muscle coats in the digestive tract of the opossum, Didelphis virginiana
Development of the external musculature of the gastrointestinal tract has been studied in the stomach, small intestine and colon of the postnatal opossum. The muscle support is thin and poorly developed at birth, especially in the stomach and small intestine where only the inner layer is completely formed. The outer layer is discontinuous and formed by scattered myoblasts. The muscularis externa of the colon at birth is considerably thicker and both layers are present. Subsequent development of the muscularis externa consists of an early period of proliferative activity followed by hypertrophy. A low rate of mitotic activity continues throughout development and into the adult. Elements of the myenteric plexus are present at birth. 相似文献

Barx2 is a member of the Bar class of homeobox genes and has been shown to regulate specific cell adhesion molecules, L1, Ng-CAM, N-CAM, and cadherin 6. By Northern blotting and in situ hybridization, we show that Barx2 is expressed throughout the gut and is located in epithelial cells of the proliferative and differentiative regions of the stomach, esophagus, and intestine. Barx2 was expressed in muscle cells of the muscularis externa and also showed a graded pattern of expression in intestinal enterocytes, decreasing in a crypt-to-villous direction. We speculate that Barx2 may regulate cell adhesion molecules in epithelial cells of the gut. 相似文献

The subepithelial intestinal myofibroblast is an important cell orchestrating many diverse functions in the intestine and is involved in growth and repair, tumorigenesis, inflammation, and fibrosis. The myofibroblast is but one of several α-smooth muscle actin-positive (α-SMA(+)) mesenchymal cells present within the intestinal lamina propria, including vascular pericytes, bone marrow-derived stem cells (mesenchymal stem cells or hematopoietic stem cells), muscularis mucosae, and the lymphatic pericytes (colon) and organized smooth muscle (small intestine) associated with the lymphatic lacteals. These other mesenchymal cells perform many of the functions previously attributed to subepithelial myofibroblasts. This review discusses the definition of a myofibroblast and reconsiders whether the α-SMA(+) subepithelial cells in the intestine are myofibroblasts or other types of mesenchymal cells, i.e., pericytes. Current information about specific, or not so specific, molecular markers of lamina propria mesenchymal cells is reviewed, as well as the origins of intestinal myofibroblasts and pericytes in the intestinal lamina propria and their replenishment after injury. Current concepts and research on stem cell therapy for intestinal inflammation are summarized. Information about the stem cell origin of intestinal stromal cells may inform future stem cell therapies to treat human inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). 相似文献

Endothelin causes contraction of human esophageal muscularis mucosae through interaction with both ETA and ETB receptors 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Endothelin (ET) causes contraction of the muscularis mucosae in the guinea pig esophagus, but its role in the human esophagus remains unknown. To investigate effects of ET in the human esophagus, we measured contraction of isolated human esophageal muscularis mucosae strips caused by ET related peptides and binding of 125I-ET-1 to cell membranes prepared from the human esophageal muscularis mucosae. Autoradiography demonstrated specific binding of 125I-ET-1 to the muscularis mucosae and muscularis propria (muscularis externa) of the human esophagus. ET-1 caused tetrodotoxin and atropine-insensitive contraction of muscularis mucosae strips. In terms of the maximal tension of contraction, ET-1 and ET-2 were equal in efficacy. The relative potencies for ET related peptides to cause contraction were ET-1=ET-2>ET-3>sarafotoxin S6c (SX6c), an ETB receptor agonist. ET-1 caused contraction was mildly inhibited by BQ-123, an ETA receptor antagonist, and not by BQ-788, an ETB receptor antagonist. It was moderately inhibited by the combination of both antagonists, indicating synergistic inhibition. Furthermore, desensitization to SX6c with SX6c pretreatment failed to abolish the contractile response to ET-1, which was completely inhibited by BQ-123. These indicate the involvement of both ETA and ETB receptors in the contraction. Binding of 125I-ET-1 to cell membranes of the muscularis mucosae was saturable and specific. Analysis of dose-inhibition curves demonstrated the presence of ETA and ETB receptors. This study demonstrates that, the muscularis mucosae of the human esophagus, similar to that of the guinea pig esophagus, possesses both ETA and ETB receptors mediating muscle contraction. 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
