Calcitonin receptor-mediated CFTR activation in human intestinal epithelial cells
High levels of calcitonin (CT) observed in medullary thyroid carcinoma and other CT-secreting tumours cause severe diarrhoea. Previous studies have suggested that CT induces active chloride secretion. However, the involvement of CT receptor (CTR) and the molecular mechanisms underlying the modulation of intestinal electrolyte secreting intestinal epithelial cells have not been investigated. The...
متن کاملHuman intestinal epithelial cells express interleukin-10 through Toll-like receptor 4-mediated epithelial-macrophage crosstalk.
In the intestine, interaction between epithelial cells and macrophages (MΦs) create a unique immunoregulatory microenvironment necessary to maintain local immune and tissue homeostasis. Human intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) have been shown to express interleukin (IL)-10, which keeps epithelial integrity. We have demonstrated that bacterial signaling through Toll-like receptor (TLR) 4 induces...
متن کاملHuman intestinal epithelial cells express a novel receptor for IgA.
Binding and transport of polymeric Igs (pIgA and IgM) across epithelia is mediated by the polymeric Ig receptor (pIgR), which is expressed on the basolateral surface of secretory epithelial cells. Although an Fc receptor for IgA (FcalphaR) has been identified on myeloid cells and some cultured mesangial cells, the expression of an FcalphaR on epithelial cells has not been described. In this stu...
متن کاملSrc-Mediated EGF Receptor Activation Regulates Ozone-Induced Interleukin 8 Expression in Human Bronchial Epithelial Cells
BACKGROUND Human exposure to ozone (O3) results in pulmonary function decrements and airway inflammation. The mechanisms underlying these adverse effects remain unclear. Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) plays an important role in the pathogenesis of lung inflammation. OBJECTIVE We examined the role of EGFR activation in O3-induced expression of the chemokine interleukin 8 (IL-8) in hum...
متن کاملCFTR activation in human bronchial epithelial cells by novel benzoflavone and benzimidazolone compounds.
Activators of the CFTR Cl- channel may be useful for therapy of cystic fibrosis. Short-circuit current (Isc) measurements were done on human bronchial epithelial cells to characterize the best flavone and benzimidazolone CFTR activators identified by lead-based combinatorial synthesis and high-throughput screening. The 7,8-benzoflavone UCcf-029 was a potent activator of Cl- transport, with acti...
