ABSTRACT

ObjectiveTo compare the values of serum citrulline, intestinal fatty acid binding protein (IFABP) and intes-tinal trefoil factor (ITF) in diagnosis of acute gastrointestinal injury in critically ill children.MethodsA total of 84 critically ill children were enrolled. The serum citrullin, IFABP, and ITF were measured by high performance liquid chromatography and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The testing results and clinical data were analyzed.ResultsCompared with non gastroin-testinal injury group, the serum citrulline level was signiifcantly lower and IFABP and ITF levels were signiifcantly higher in gas-trointestinal injury group (allP<0.05). In critically ill children, the serum citrulline level was negatively correlated with C-reactive protein, procalcitonin and hospitalization time (r=-0.36 to -0.31,P<0.01).ConclusionsThe levels of citrulline, IFABP and ITF have diagnostic values for acute gastrointestinal injury in critically ill children. The level of citrulline may relfect the degree of acute gastrointestinal injury in critically ill children.

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the effects of intestinal trefoil factor ( ITF) on gastric mucosal epithelial cell proliferation and its possible molecular mechanism . Methods The cultured GES-1 cells were treated with ITF in the concentration of 100 ng/mL and 500 ng/mL in vitro, and then were observed using microscope for the morphological analysis .The Cell Counting Kit-8 ( CCK-8) was used to detect the proliferation activity of GES-1.The cultured GES-1 cells were treated with 100 ng/mL ITF and the specific inhibitor of PI3K/Akt signaling pathway LY294002 (15μmol/L) in vitro, and then were observed using microscope for the morphological analysis . The proliferation activity of treated GES-1cells was detected using CCK-8 and the expressions of p-Akt and Akt of PI3K/Akt signaling pathway were determined by Western blot . Results Compared with the control group , the proliferation activity of GES-1 cells in-creased after being treated with ITF and the higher concentration of ITF induced the higher proliferation activity .LY294002 inhibited the increased proliferation activity of GES-1induced by ITF.The data of Western blot indicated that ITF induced the expression of p -Akt and activated the P3IK/Akt signaling pathway to modulate the proliferation activity of GES -1 cells.However, LY294002 inhibited the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway and then decreased the proliferation activity of GES -1 cells. Conclusion ITF could promote the proliferation ac-tivity of GES-1 cells by activating PI3K/Akt signaling pathway .

ABSTRACT

Objective: To investigate the effect ofintestinal trefoil factor (ITF) on the transcriptional activity of ITF promoter and to explore the regulatory mechanismofJanus kinase/signal transducersand activators of transcription(JAK/STAT) on ITF promoter. Methods: The 5' flanking sequence of the ITF gene was cloned from human whole blood genomic DNA by PCR. ITF promoter fragment was cloned and inserted into the pGL3-Basic vector to construct recombinant vector. ITF promoter vector was stimulated with ITF at various concentrations and the luciferase activity was measured. The JAK-STAT3 signal transductionpathway was then blocked by a speciifc inhibitor AG490 to determine the signal pathway involved in ITF promoter activity. Results: Restriction endonuclease analysis and DNA sequencing confirmed that the recombinant plasmid, containing ITF promoter, was constructed successfully. After transient transfection, the activity of ITF promoter was increased signiifcantly in the presence of ITF (P<0.05). Blockage of the JAK-STAT3 signal transduction pathway with AG490 signiifcantly reduced the ITF promoter activity (P<0.05). Conclusion: ITF increases the transcriptional activity of ITF promoter via the JAK-STAT3 signal transduction pathway.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:The intestine is not only the main target attacked by sepsis but also the vital organ which mediated sepsis. The recovery of the damaged intestinal barrier structure and function is related to the occurrence and outcome of multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS). How to protect and reduce the damage of the intestinal mucosa and how to promote the reconstruction of the intestinal mucosa have been the important topics in sepsis for many years. This study aimed to investigate the influential factors of intestinal mucosal reconstruction after intestinal epithelial injuryin vivo in a mouse model of sepsis.METHODS:Mice were subjected to cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) for induction of sepsis to assess intestinal mucosal damage, epithelial cell apoptosis, and transformed number of goblet cells, and to detect the concentration of TNF-α, IL-1 and TGF-β1 and TFF3 (trefoil factor 3) expression in the small intestinal mucosa. All above were performed by HE staining, western blot, ELISA and immunohistochemistry respectively. The experimental animals were divided into a sepsis group and a sham-operation group. The animals with sepsis were separately killed at 6 (7 animals), 24 (7 animals) and 48 hours (7 animals) after CLP.RESULTS:Injured intestinal mucosa was observed in the 3 groups under a light microscope, in which damage scores in the 24-hour and 48-hour groups were higher than in the 6-hour group and no difference was found between the two groups. Moreover, less of goblet cells or other epithelial cells adjacent to the injured surface migrated into the wound to cover the denuded area. The number of goblet cells was substantially decreased in the three CLP groups compared with the sham-operation group. Protein levels of IL-1 and TNF-α were significantly increased by 3-4 fold at all time points when compared with the sham-operation group, and cleaved caspase-3 by 4 fold. Although TFF3 expression was modestly increased for 6 hours after the onset of CLP, it appeared to decline at 24 hours and 48 hours as shown by Western blot. A similar tendency was observed upon TGF-β1, i.e. the protein level was not elevated at 24 hours and 48 hours, but increased modestly at 6 hours.CONCLUSIONS:Sepsis from CLP shows less restitution on the surface of injured intestinal mucosa. There is evidence that both constant inflammatory reaction and epithelial cell apoptosis may affect mucosal reestablishment of the intestine at the onset of sepsis. Mucosa after severe sepsis showed the state of high inflammation, and declined goblet cell function and mucosal reconstruction, which affected the repair of damaged intestinal barrier. Constant inflammatory reaction, and declined goblet cell function and mucosal reconstruction ability may affect the reestablishment of intestinal mucosa at the onset of sepsis.

ABSTRACT

Twenty-nine thyroid tissue samples were collected from patients with thyroid nodules.The total RNA were extracted,the gene expressions of TFF3,HMGA2,C1orf24,and DDIT3 were detected by RT-PCR.In comparison with normal thyroid tissues,the expression of C1orf24 mRNA was decreased in the follicular thyroid adenoma (FTA) group,but increased in the follicular thyroid carcinomas (FTC) group.The expressions of DDIT3 and HMGA2 mRNA were increased in both FTA and FTC groups,and were even higher in the latter.The expressions of TFF3 mRNA level were decreased in FTA and FTC.The data suggested that molecular markers C1ort24,DDIT3,HMGA2,and TFF3 in thyroid tissue seem to be helpful in the differential diagnosis between follicular adenomas and carcinomas.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the potential mechanism of intestinal trefoil factor(ITF)against methotrexate (MTX)- induced injury in intestinal mucosa. Methods Cultured IEC-6 cells were divided into groups as follows: blank group, MTX treated group, ITF treated group and experimental group treated with gradient concentrations of ITF plus MTX. Expression of E-cadherin mRNA was determined by Real-Time polymerase chain reaciton (RT- PCR). The activity of matrix metalloproteinase(MMP)-2 and MMP-9 was measured by gelatin zymogramphy. Caspases-3 activity was measured by colorimetric assay. Cell proliferation was assessed by cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8)assay. Migration of IEC-6 in vitro was observed using modified Boyden chamber assay. Results The expression of E-cadherin mRNA in experimental group (treated with 0.1 mg/ml or 1 mg/ml of ITF) was significantly down-regulated (0. 538±0. 109 or 0. 528±0. 132, respectively) in comparison with MTX treated group (0. 763±0. 139) with significant difference (P=0. 021 or P=0. 025, respectively). There was no significant difference in activity of MMP-2 and MMP-9 among groups (P>0. 05). When compared with MTX treated group (0. 090 ±0. 011 ), the activity of Caspase3 in experimental group (treated with 0. 1 mg/ml or 1 mg/ml of ITF) was significantly decreased (0. 077±0. 009, P=0. 032 or 0. 044±0. 009,P=0. 005, respectively). There was no statistical difference in cell proliferation between experimental group (treated with 1 μg/ml, 0.01 mg/ml, 0. 1 mg/ml or 1.0 mg/ml of ITF) and MTX treated group (P=0. 132,0. 150,0. 114 or 0. 367, respectivley). More migratory cells attached to the bottom surface of the membrane in experiment group (treated with 0. 1 mg/ml or 1 mg/ml of ITF) in comparison with MTX treated group (P <0. 001 ). Moreover, more migratory cells were found in experimental group treated with 1.0 mg/ml of ITF than those in group treated with 0. 1 mg/ml of ITF (P<0. 001). Conclusions Without cell proliferation, the protective effect of ITF is related to its functions of promoting cell migration and inhibiting cell apoptosis, which may down-regulate expression of E-cadherin mRNA.

ABSTRACT

ObjectiveTo investigate the unfavorable factors of intestinal mucosa repair after the intestinal epithelial injury in vivo in a mouse model of sepsis. MethodsThe method of cecal ligature and puncture (CLP) was used to induce sepsis and then the intestinal mucosa damage, epithelial cell apoptosis and the number of transformed goblet cells were observed, and the concentrations of serum TNF-αt, IL-1 and TGF-β1 and TFF3 ( trefoil factor 3) in small intestinal mucosa were determined. All above various laboratory examinations were made by different assays including H-E staining, western blot, ELISA and immunohistochemistry respectively. The experimental mice were divided into sepsis group and sham operation control group. The mice with sepsis were separately sacrificed 6 hours ( n = 7 ), 24 hours ( n = 7) and 48 hours ( n = 7) after CLP. Results In septic mice group, the injured intestinal mucosa was found 6 hours after CLP. The damage scores in mice 24 h and 48 h after CLP were higher than those 6 h after CLP, but there was no significant difference between those 24 h and 48 h after CLP. Moreover, a few goblet cells or other epithelial cells adjacent to the injured surface migrated onto the wound to cover the denuded area. The number of goblet cells was substantially decreased in mice of sepsis group 6 hours after CLP compared with sham operation control group. Compared with sham operation control group, levels of IL-1 and TNF-α significantly increased 3-4 times in mice of sepsis group at all intervals, and the phosphorylated caspase-3 increased 4 times. Although TFF3 assayed by using Western blot showed modest increase 6 h after CLP and it declined 24 h and 48 h later. A similar change was found in TGF-β1, it modestly increased 6h after CLP, but it didn't elevate 24 h and 48 h later. ConclusionsSevere sepsis keeps on the inflammatory reaction and epithelial cell apoptosis, preventing the repair of intestinal mucosa from injury.

ABSTRACT

Summary: In order to investigate the protective effects of intestinal trefoil factor (ITF) on colonic mucosa in experimental colitis of rats, ITF was detected by RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry at different time points. Three days after colitis induction, rats were treated with either 0.9 % saline solution or rhITF. Pathological changes and the expression of iNOS mRNA, NO, MDA and SOD were measured respectively. It was found that ITF was mainly located in goblet cells, significantly higher in model group than in normal group (P<0.05). rhITF could increase the iNOS mRNA expression and NO contents, and there was statistically significant difference between rhITF group and model group (P<0.05). rhITF also caused an increase of MDA and a decrease of SOD, but there was no significant difference between two groups. These results indicated that ITF has apparent therapeutic effects in ulcerative colitis, which may be associated with iNOS and NO.
