Leader Cell proliferation in gastrointestinal mucosa
Gastrointestinal cell proliferation plays an important role in the maintenance of the integrity of the gastrointestinal system. The study of gastrointestinal proliferation kinetics allows a better understanding of the complexity of the system, and also has important implications for the study of gastrointestinal carcinogenesis. Gastrointestinal stem cells are shown to be pluripotential and to g...
متن کاملCell proliferation of pericryptal fibroblasts in the rat colon mucosa.
The turnover of pericryptal fibroblasts in the rat colon mucosa was analysed after in vivo incorporation of tritiated thymidine. Thirty-six rats were serially killed one hour to 21 days after intraperitoneal injection of the radionuclide. At one hour, the labelling index of pericryptal fibroblasts was only 2.44%; labelled fibroblasts were slightly predominant along the lower two-thirds of the c...
متن کاملHistomorphometrical evaluation of the gastrointestinal mucosa following chronic administration of Ghrelin in rat
Ghrelin, a peptide hormone, has several functions, of which the best known is its growth hormone (GH)-releasing effect in the pituitary. It also increases appetite and feeding behavior. Recent studies have implicated ghrelin in the regulation of gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, and immune function, and suggest a role for ghrelin in bone physiology. In this study, the effect of chronically admi...
متن کاملHealing of Gastrointestinal Mucosa: Involvement of Polyamines.
Polyamines are involved in the processes of cell migration and proliferation that result in the repair of mucosal lesions. Depletion of polyamines dramatically alters the arrangement of the cytoskeleton, EGF receptor function, the activities of signal transduction proteins, the levels of several protooncogenes, and the expression and cellular content of at least one growth factor involved in th...
متن کاملCarnosinase activity of human gastrointestinal mucosa.
Carnosinase, the dipeptidase which hydrolyses carnosine and other histidine-containing dipeptides, was assayed in mucosal tissues of the human and of the rat gut. Kinetic properties of the intestinal enzyme were found to be similar to carnosinase of other animal tissues. Little or no activity was detected in human gastric or colonic mucosa, and the levels were lower in duodenal than jejunal muc...
