Four intestinal cell lines derived from rat fetuses at 19 days of gestation were successfully propagated after electroporation in the presence of different recombinant DNAs containing the viral oncogenes E1A from Adenovirus 5 and large T from SV40 or Polyoma. These immortalized intestinal cells, designated SLC, possess several properties observed in the parent cells of this tissue, including the expression of cytoplasmic villin, enkephalinase and retention of VIP receptors. In contrast, histamine elevated cAMP levels in the SLC cell lines only. The data suggest that the transfection of fetal rat intestinal cells by E1A and large T is associated with the induction of functional histamine receptors coupled with the Gs/Gi regulatory proteins of adenylate cyclase.

Unlabelled: In the gut, microRNAs (miRNAs) produced by intestinal epithelial cells are secreted into the lumen and can shape the composition and function of the gut microbiome. Crosstalk between gut microbes and the host plays a key role in irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and inflammatory bowel diseases, yet little is known about how the miRNA-gut microbiome axis contributes to the pathogenesis of these conditions. Here, we investigate the ability of miR-21, a miRNA that we found decreased in fecal samples from IBS patients, to associate with and regulate gut microbiome function.

Unlabelled: Pathogenic strains cause cholera using different mechanisms. O1 and O139 serogroup strains use the toxin-co-regulated pilus (TCP) and cholera toxin (CT) for intestinal colonization and to promote secretory diarrhea, while non-O1/non-O139 serogroup strains are typically non-toxigenic and use alternate virulence factors to cause a clinically similar disease. An O39 serogroup, TCP/CT-negative strain, named AM-19226, uses a type III secretion system (T3SS) to translocate more than 10 effector proteins into the host cell cytosol.

is a pathogen that causes sporadic cases and outbreaks of diarrhea. The main virulence feature of this bacterium is the attaching and effacing (AE) lesion formation on infected intestinal epithelial cells, which is characterized by the formation of pedestal-like structures that are rich in F-actin. The Brazilian 1551-2 strain can recruit F-actin using both the Nck-dependent and the Nck-independent pathways, the latter of which uses an adaptor protein named Tir-cytoskeleton coupling protein (TccP/EspF).

Introduction: The objective of the present study was to improve the anti-inflammatory and antibacterial activities of mastic gum resin (MGR). MGR was loaded into a phospholipid nanocarrier with or without partially hydrolyzed ginsenoside, followed by dispersion into distilled water.
Method: The phospholipid nanocarrier dispersion showed significantly enhanced in-vitro release, porcine skin/ intestine permeation, and retention.
