Hypoxia Positively Regulates the Expression of pH-Sensing G-Protein–Coupled Receptor OGR1 (GPR68)

2016

Background & Aims: A novel family of proton-sensing G-proteinâcoupled receptors, including ovarian cancer G-proteinâcoupled receptor 1 (OGR1) (GPR68) has been identified to play a role in pH homeostasis. Hypoxia is known to change tissue pH as a result of anaerobic glucose metabolism through the stabilization of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α. We investigated how hypoxia regulates the expression of OGR1 in the intestinal mucosa and associated cells. Methods: OGR1 expression in murine tumors, human colonic tissue, and myeloid cells was determined by quantitative reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction. The influence of hypoxia on OGR1 expression was studied in monocytes/macrophages and…

Anti-inflammatory Function of High-Density Lipoproteins via Autophagy of IκB Kinase

2015

Background & Aims: Plasma levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol are frequently found decreased in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Therefore, and because HDL exerts anti-inflammatory activities, we investigated whether HDL and its major protein component apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) modulate mucosal inflammatory responses in vitro and in vivo. Methods: The human intestinal epithelial cell line T84 was used as the in vitro model for measuring the effects of HDL on the expression and secretion of tumor necrosis factor (TNF), interleukin-8 (IL-8), and intracellular adhesion molecule (ICAM). Nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB)-responsive promoter activity was studied by …

A real life comparison of the efficacy of adalimumab versus golimumab in moderate-to-severe ulcerative colitis. A multicenter experience from the sic…

2017

Introduction: Adalimumab (ADA) and golimumab (GOL) are effective in the induction and maintenance treatment of moderate-to-severe ulcerative colitis (UC). No comparable data between the 2 drugs are available up to now. Aims & Methods: We reported the Sicilian Network experience on the comparative efficacy of ADA and GOL in patients (pts) with moderate-to-severe UC. From June 2015 until April 2017, 197 consecutive pts with moderate to severe UC were treated with ADA or GOL. The efficacy was evaluated at 8 week and at the end of the follow up considering ‘‘clinical response’’ (reduction of at least 2 points of Partial Mayo Score with concomitant steroid reduction or discontinuation) and “…

Chemically induced mouse models of intestinal inflammation

2007

Animal models of intestinal inflammation are indispensable for our understanding of the pathogenesis of Crohn disease and ulcerative colitis, the two major forms of inflammatory bowel disease in humans. Here, we provide protocols for establishing murine 2,4,6-trinitro benzene sulfonic acid (TNBS)-, oxazolone- and both acute and chronic dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) colitis, the most widely used chemically induced models of intestinal inflammation. In the former two models, colitis is induced by intrarectal administration of the covalently reactive reagents TNBS/oxazolone, which are believed to induce a T-cell-mediated response against hapten-modified autologous proteins/luminal antigens. In …

Smad7 controls resistance of colitogenic T cells to regulatory T cell-mediated suppression.

2008

Background & Aims Foxp3-expressing regulatory T cells (Tregs) play a key role in the maintenance of the gut immune homeostasis, and an intact transforming growth factor (TGF)-β signaling is required for their function. In inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), the TGF-β signaling is impaired because of high expression of the inhibitory molecule Smad7. Although no intrinsic defects in Tregs function have been shown in IBD, it is still unknown whether colitogenic T cells are susceptible to Treg-mediated suppression. In this study, we have investigated whether IBD mucosal CD4+ T cells are resistant to Tregs and whether Smad7 is involved in this process. Methods IBD lamina propria mononuclear cells …

P030 SUCNR1 mediates inflammasome activation: Relevance in Ulcerative Colitis

2021

Abstract Background Ulcerative colitis (UC) is characterized by a diffuse, continuous, and chronic inflammation of mucosa and submucosa layers in the colon1. Inflammasome complex is involved in the intestinal homeostasis regulation, but its role in UC has not been established yet. We have recently reported that SUCNR1 mediates intestinal inflammation and fibrosis2. We aim to analyze the role of SUCNR1 in inflammasome activation and UC. Methods Intestinal resections from UC and non-IBD patients were obtained. HT29 cells were treated with succinate 1mM and an inflammasome activator cocktail (TNF-α 25ng/ml, IFN-γ 20 ng/ml and LPS 1µg/ml) for 24 hours and transfected with SUCNR1 siRNA. Chronic …

Knock out der c-Jun N-terminalen Kinase 2 (JNK2) aggraviert die Entwicklung der chronischen DSS-Colitis unabhängig von der intestinalen Zytokin-Expre…

2008

Background The c-Jun N-terminal kinase 2 (JNK2) is involved in signal transduction of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) and regulates the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines. For this reason, JNK2 is considered as novel target for IBD therapy. The aim of this study was 1.) to examine the function of JNK2 applying a low dose Dextran Sulfate Sodium (DSS) model of chronic experimental colitis in JNK2 knock out mice and 2.) to analyze the expression of JNK2 dependent cytokines. Material and Methods: For induction of a mild chronic colitis, female JNK2 knockout mice (JNK2 ko) and their wildtype controls (WT2) received three cycles of DSS treatment, each consisting of 1.0 % DSS for 5 days, f…
