Enteroendocrine cells and lipid absorption

Current Opinion in Lipidology, 2011
To examine recent papers linking enteroendocrine cells to lipid absorption.Specific inactivation of the proendocrine transcription factor neurogenin 3 (Ngn3) in the intestine leads to a loss of enteroendocrine cells, growth retardation, impaired lipid absorption and a high mortality during the weaning period.

Enteroendocrine cells in gastrointestinal pathophysiology

Current Opinion in Pharmacology, 2013
Enteroendocrine cells in the gastrointestinal tract play an important role in the regulation of appetite and digestive responses through the secretion of peptides. Their involvement in gastrointestinal diseases has been acknowledged, but relatively few studies have sought to clearly define their role in the pathogenesis or as therapeutic targets ...

Enteroendocrine Cells: Chemosensors in the Intestinal Epithelium

Annual Review of Physiology, 2016
The enteroendocrine system orchestrates how the body responds to the ingestion of foods, employing a diversity of hormones to fine-tune a wide range of physiological responses both within and outside the gut. Recent interest in gut hormones has surged with the realization that they modulate glucose tolerance and food intake through a variety of ...

Enteroendocrine cells in terminal ileal Crohn's disease

Journal of Crohn's and Colitis, 2012
Enteroendocrine cells sense gut luminal contents, and orchestrate digestive physiology whilst contributing to mucosal homeostasis and innate immunity. The terminal ileum is the key site of EEC expression but detailed assessment of their subtypes, lineage transcription factors and expression products has not been undertaken in terminal ileal Crohn's ...

Enteroendocrine cells in sheep fetuses

Small Ruminant Research, 1991
Abstract The appearance and topographic distribution of endocrine cells of the gastro-entero-pancreatic system was investigated in the duodenum, colon and rectum of sheep fetuses at the 13th and 20th week of gestation. Endocrine cells were detected by means of silver impregnation and immunocytochemical techniques using antibodies against serotonin ...

The enteroendocrine “letter cells” – time for a new nomenclature?

Scandinavian Journal of Gastroenterology, 2011
Abstract The endocrine cells of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract and the pancreas, referred to as the enteroendocrine cells, secrete a large variety of peptides and amines that regulate functions of the digestive tract itself and of distant organs.

Unbiased transcription factor CRISPR screen identifies ZNF800 as master repressor of enteroendocrine differentiation

Science, 2023
Enteroendocrine cells (EECs) are hormone-producing cells residing in the epithelium of stomach, small intestine (SI), and colon. EECs regulate aspects of metabolic activity, including insulin levels, satiety, gastrointestinal secretion, and motility. The

Function and mechanisms of enteroendocrine cells and gut hormones in metabolism

Nature Reviews Endocrinology, 2019
Gut hormones have many key roles in the control of metabolism, as they target diverse tissues involved in the control of intestinal function, insulin secretion, nutrient assimilation and food intake. Produced by scattered cells found along the length of the intestinal epithelium, gut hormones generate signals related to the rate of nutrient absorption,

[Enteroendocrine cells, their structure and function].

Arkhiv anatomii, gistologii i embriologii, 1985
The modern classification of the gastroenteropancreatic endocrine system (GEPES) is presented. Qualitative and quantitative composition of the entero-endocrine system (EES) included in the GEPES is considered, as well as functional role of every type of the cells.

Enteroendocrine cell dysgenesis and malabsorption, a histopathologic and immunohistochemical characterization

Human Pathology, 2007
Enteroendocrine cell dysgenesis was observed in 3 patients with intestinal failure of unknown cause. Enteroendocrine cell dysgenesis is a congenitally acquired life-threatening malabsorptive condition with a unique clinical phenotype paired with a histologically identifiable disease pattern.
