Guanylate cyclase 2C agonism corrects CFTR mutants. [PDF]

open access: goldJCI Insight, 2017
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a genetic disorder in which epithelium-generated fluid flow from the lung, intestine, and pancreas is impaired due to mutations disrupting CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) channel function. CF manifestations of the pancreas and lung are present in the vast majority of CF patients, and 15% of CF infants are born with

Catalytic region mimetics in Na+/H+ exchanger regulatory factor 4 suppress guanylate cyclase 2C activity to regulate enterotoxin triggered diarrhea. [PDF]

open access: goldJ Biol Chem
Abstract Guanylate cyclase 2C (GCC), a receptor for bacterial heat-stable enterotoxin ST on the apical intestinal epithelium, generates cGMP and causes excessive intestinal secretion leading to diarrhea upon activation. This study reports that the C-terminal PSD95, Dlg1, ZO-1 (PDZ) domain interacting motif in GCC interacts with scaffolding ...

Meconium ileus caused by mutations in GUCY2C, encoding the CFTR-activating guanylate cyclase 2C. [PDF]

open access: closedAm J Hum Genet, 2012
Meconium ileus, intestinal obstruction in the newborn, is caused in most cases by CFTR mutations modulated by yet-unidentified modifier genes. We now show that in two unrelated consanguineous Bedouin kindreds, an autosomal-recessive phenotype of meconium ileus that is not associated with cystic fibrosis (CF) is caused by different homozygous mutations ...

Effect of guanylin peptides on pancreas steatosis and function in experimental diet-induced obesity and after bariatric surgery

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2023
IntroductionObesity contributes to ectopic fat deposition in non-adipose organs, including the pancreas. Pancreas steatosis associates with inflammation and β-cell dysfunction, contributing to the onset of insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes.

Functional Analysis of Novel Candidate Regulators of Insulin Secretion in the MIN6 Mouse Pancreatic β Cell Line. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Elucidating the regulation of glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) in pancreatic β cells is important for understanding and treating diabetes. The pancreatic β cell line, MIN6, retains GSIS but gradually loses it in long-term culture.

Decreased Colonic Guanylin/Uroguanylin Expression and Dried Stool Property in Mice With Social Defeat Stress

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2020
Psychological stress is deeply involved in the pathophysiology of not only mental illness but also functional gastrointestinal disorders. In the present study, we examined the relationship between psychological stress and abnormality of stool properties,
