Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the gut. Available drugs aim to suppress gut inflammation. These drugs have significantly delayed disease progression and improved patients’ quality of life. However, the disease continues to progress, underscoring the need to develop novel therapies. Aside from chronic gut inflammation, IBD patients also experience a leaky gut problem due to damage to the intestinal epithelial layer. In this regard, epithelial regeneration and repair are mediated by intestinal stem cells. However, no therapies are available to directly enhance the intestinal stem cells’ regenerative and repair function. Recently, it was shown that active vitamin D, i.e., 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D or 1,25(OH)2D, was necessary to maintain Lgr5+ intestinal stem cells, actively cycling under physiological conditions. In this study, we used two strategies to investigate the role of 1,25(OH)2D in intestinal stem cells’ regenerative function. First, to avoid the side effects of systemic high 1,25(OH)2D conditions, we used our recently developed novel strategy to deliver locally high 1,25(OH)2D concentrations specifically to inflamed intestines. Second, because of the Lgr5+ intestinal stem cells’ active cycling status, we used a pulse-and-chase strategy via 5-bromo-2′-deoxyuridine (BrdU) labeling to trace the Lgr5+ stem cells through the whole epithelial regeneration process. Our data showed that locally high 1,25(OH)2D concentrations enhanced intestinal stem cell migration. Additionally, the migrated cells differentiated into mature epithelial cells. Our data, therefore, suggest that local delivery of high 1,25(OH)2D concentrations is a promising strategy to augment intestinal epithelial repair in IBD patients.

It is well known that insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1) acts as a trophic factor in small intestine under both physiological and pathophysiological conditions. However, it still lacks direct in vivo evidence of the functions of intestinal epithelial cell (IEC)-specific IGF1 under both normal and pathological conditions. Using IEC-specific IGF1-knockout (cKO) mice and Lgr5-eGFP-CreERT mice, we demonstrate that IEC-specific IGF1 can enhance nutrient uptake, reduce protein catabolism and energy consumption, and promote the proliferation and expansion of intestinal epithelial cells, including intestinal epithelial stem cells and intestinal secretory cells. Next, we showed that IEC-specific IGF1 renders IECs resistant to irradiation and promotes epithelial regeneration. Strikingly, transcriptome profiling assay revealed that many differentially expressed genes involved in the differentiation and maturation of lymphoid lineages were significantly suppressed in the cKO mice as compared with the control mice. We demonstrated that deletion of IGF1 in IECs enhances bacterial translocation to the mesenteric lymph nodes and liver. Furthermore, high-throughput sequencing of 16S ribosomal RNA genes of gut microbiota revealed that IEC-specific IGF1 loss profoundly affected the gut microbial composition at various levels of classification. Therefore, our findings shed light on the in vivo roles of IEC-specific IGF1 in intestinal homeostasis, epithelial regeneration, and immunity, broadening our current insights on IGF1 functions.

Damage to intestinal epithelial cell (IEC) layers during intestinal inflammation is associated with inflammatory bowel disease. Here we show that the endoribonuclease Regnase-1 controls colon epithelial regeneration by regulating protein kinase mTOR (the mechanistic target of rapamycin kinase) and purine metabolism. During dextran sulfate sodium-induced intestinal epithelial injury and acute colitis, Regnase-1∆IEC mice, which lack Regnase-1 specifically in the intestinal epithelium, were resistant to body weight loss, maintained an intact intestinal barrier, and showed increased cell proliferation and decreased epithelial apoptosis. Chronic colitis and tumor progression were also attenuated in Regnase-1∆IEC mice. Regnase-1 predominantly regulates mTORC1 signaling. Metabolic analysis revealed that Regnase-1 participates in purine metabolism and energy metabolism during inflammation. Furthermore, increased expression of ectonucleotidases contributed to the resolution of acute inflammation in Regnase-1∆IEC mice. These findings provide evidence that Regnase-1 deficiency has beneficial effects on the prevention and/or blocking of intestinal inflammatory disorders.

Abstract Background In patients operated due to active Crohn’s disease (CD), the negative effect of steroids and biologics on septic complications is known. Until now, azathioprine (AZA) is considered to be safe. The aim of our study was to assess the impact of AZA on intestinal epithelial cells damage in patients with active CD as a surrogate marker of healing. Methods Intestinal specimens taken from macroscopically healthy surgical margins of all consecutive CD patients operated due to active isolated ileocecal disease during the study period (2014–2016) were evaluated. Expression of caspase-3, p-53 and Ki-67 as markers of cell apoptosis, DNA damage and proliferation were immunohistochemically tested and assessed using a confocal microscope and microimage for in-tissue-cytometry analysis. Western-blot analysis was performed for the evaluation of cellular integrity using ZO-1 and E-cadherin as a markers. 30-day clinical outcomes were assessed. The study was approved by the institutional Ethics Committee. Results From 61 operated due to active CD patients, 35 met the inclusion criteria. Patients were divided accordingly to preoperative treatment: treated with no immunomodulators (N-9 patients), on steroids (S-14 patients), on AZA (A-6 patients), and on combination therapy, AZA + steroids (AS-6 patients). There were no substantial differences between groups. We found statistically significant increase of apoptosis in A group compared with N (5.33 ± 1.05 vs. 1.29 ± 0.51, p = 0.011), but also S group (1.58 ± 0.68, p = 0.014) and increase of DNA damage in A, AS and S groups compared with N group (p =0.01; p = 0.032; p = 0.035, respectively) (Figure 1a–c). P53-mediated cell cycle arrest and apoptosis through a caspase-3-dependent pathway in response to DNA damage was the most intensive in A group (Figure 2a). Reduction of cell proliferative activity in group A did not reach statistical significance (p = 0,057). A reduction of ZO-1 in A group and increased level of E-cadherin in S group were found. The effect of the decreased number of tight junctions and disintegration of the mucosa layer was observed in A group (Figure 2b). Clinically, in 30-day postoperative follow-up, six wound healing complications and one anastomotic leak were found, all in patients treated with immunomodulators. Conclusion We found that in epithelial cells of the small and large intestine of patients treated with AZA, apoptotic activity and DNA damage processes are increased when regeneration processes and mucosal integrity are significantly disturbed. These abnormalities of intestinal epithelial regeneration may be a surrogate marker of impaired mucosal healing.

The gastrointestinal system is arguably one of the most complicated developmental systems in a multicellular organism, as it carries out at least four major functions: digestion of food, absorption of nutrients, excretion of hormones, and defense against pathogens. Anatomically, the fetal gut has a tubular structure with an outer layer of smooth muscle derived from lateral splanchnic mesoderm and an inner lining of epithelium derived from the definitive endoderm. During morphogenesis of the gut tube, the definitive endoderm transforms into a primitive gut tube with a foregut, midgut, and hindgut. During the course of further development, the midgut gives rise to the small and proximal large intestine and the hindgut gives rise to the distal large intestine and rectum. The small intestine is subdivided into three parts: duodenum, jejunum, and ileum, whereas the large intestine is subdivided into the cecum, colon, and rectum.
