Induction of epithelial chloride secretion by channel-forming cryptdins 2 and 3.
Salt and water secretion from intestinal epithelia requires enhancement of anion permeability across the apical membrane of Cl- secreting cells lining the crypt, the secretory gland of the intestine. Paneth cells located at the base of the small intestinal crypt release enteric defensins (cryptdins) apically into the lumen. Because cryptdins are homologs of molecules known to form anion conduct...
متن کاملActivated Endothelial Cells Elicit Paracrine Induction of Epithelial Chloride Secretion
Endothelial cells play a central role in the coordination of the inflammatory response. In mucosal tissue, such as the lung and intestine, endothelia are anatomically positioned in close proximity to epithelia, providing the potential for cell–cell crosstalk. Thus, in this study endothelial–epithelial biochemical crosstalk pathways were studied using a human intestinal crypt cell line (T84) gro...
متن کاملPhysiology of epithelial chloride and fluid secretion.
Epithelial salt and water secretion serves a variety of functions in different organ systems, such as the airways, intestines, pancreas, and salivary glands. In cystic fibrosis (CF), the volume and/or composition of secreted luminal fluids are compromised owing to mutations in the gene encoding CFTR, the apical membrane anion channel that is responsible for salt secretion in response to cAMP/PK...
متن کاملRegulation of CFTR chloride channel trafficking by Nedd4-2: role of SGK1
Introduction: The cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) chloride (Cl−) channel is an essential component of epithelial Cl− transport systems in many organs. CFTR is mainly expressed in the lung and other tissues, such as testis, duodenum, trachea and kidney. The ubiquitin ligase neural precursor cells expressed developmentally down-regulated protein 4-2 (Nedd4-2...
متن کاملEffects of quercetin on epithelial chloride secretion.
The effect of the flavonoid quercetin on epithelial chloride secretion has been studied in vitro. These studies were performed using monolayers of the human colonic epithelial cell line T84, mounted in modified Ussing chambers. Chloride secretion was assessed as changes in short circuit current (I(SC)) both in basal conditions as well as in response to different secretagogues: carbachol (100 mi...
