Zinc Transporter SLC39A7/ZIP7 Promotes Intestinal Epithelial Self-Renewal by Resolving ER Stress.
Zinc transporters play a critical role in spatiotemporal regulation of zinc homeostasis. Although disruption of zinc homeostasis has been implicated in disorders such as intestinal inflammation and aberrant epithelial morphology, it is largely unknown ...

Summary: Antibiotic-induced dysbiosis is a key factor predisposing intestinal infection by Clostridium difficile. Here, we show that interventions that restore butyrate intestinal levels mitigate clinical and pathological features of C. difficile-induced

This study was aimed to investigate the effects of Clostridium butyricum (C. butyricum) immunity and intestinal epithelial barrier function at the intestinal mucosal level, by using Salmonella enteritidis (S. enteritidis) to infect specific-pathogen-free

Caspase-8 controls the gut response to microbial challenges by Tnf-alpha-dependent and independent pathways [PDF]
Objectives: Intestinal epithelial cells (IEC) express toll-like receptors (TLR) that facilitate microbial recognition. Stimulation of TLR ligands induces a transient increase in epithelial cell shedding, a mechanism that serves the antibacterial and ...

Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli induce pro-inflammatory responses in porcine intestinal epithelial cells [PDF]
F4+ enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) cause severe diarrhoea in both neonatal and weaning piglets, resulting in morbidity and mortality. F4 fimbriae are a key virulence factor involved in the attachment of F4+ ETEC to the intestinal epithelium ...

Epithelial organization and cyst lumen expansion require efficient Sec13-Sec31-driven secretion [PDF]
Epithelial morphogenesis is directed by interactions with the underlying extracellular matrix. Secretion of collagen and other matrix components requires efficient coat complex II (COPII) vesicle formation at the endoplasmic reticulum. Here, we show that

Prostaglandin E2 promotes intestinal repair through an adaptive cellular response of the epithelium [PDF]
Adaptive cellular responses are often required during wound repair. Following disruption of the intestinal epithelium, wound‐associated epithelial (WAE) cells form the initial barrier over the wound.

To respond or not to respond - a personal perspective of intestinal tolerance [PDF]
For many years, the intestine was one of the poor relations of the immunology world, being a realm inhabited mostly by specialists and those interested in unusual phenomena.

Vectorial Transport in intestinal epithelial cells [PDF]
AbstractTerms to be familiar with before you start to solve the test: polarized cells, vectorial transport, apical and basolateral membrane, tight junction, occludin, transmembrane proteins, passive and active transport, glucose transporter, Na+/glucose symporter, Na+/K+ ATPase, uniporter, antiporter, facilitated diffusion, lateral diffusion.

Background Intestinal epithelial cells derived from human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) are generally maintained and cultured as organoids in vitro because they do not exhibit adhesion when cultured. However, the three-dimensional structure of organoids
