Despite significant scientific advances toward the development of safe and effective radiation countermeasures, no drug has been approved for use in the clinic for prevention or treatment of radiation-induced acute gastrointestinal syndrome (AGS). Thus, there is an urgent need to develop potential drugs to accelerate the repair of injured intestinal tissue. In this study, we investigated that whether some fractions of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) have the ability to regulate intestinal crypt cell proliferation and promotes crypt regeneration after radiation. By screening the different supplements from a TCM library, we found that an active fraction of the rhizomes of Trillium tschonoskii Maxim (TT), TT-2, strongly increased the colony-forming ability of irradiated rat intestinal epithelial cell line 6 (IEC-6) cells. TT-2 significantly promoted the proliferation and inhibited the apoptosis of irradiated IEC-6 cells. Furthermore, in a small intestinal organoid radiation model, TT-2 promoted irradiated intestinal organoid growth and increased Lgr5+ intestinal stem cell (ICS) numbers. More importantly, the oral administration of TT-2 remarkably enhanced intestinal crypt cell proliferation and promoted the repair of the intestinal epithelium of mice after abdominal irradiation (ABI). Mechanistically, TT-2 remarkably activated the expression of ICS-associated and proliferation-promoting genes and inhibited apoptosis-related gene expression. Our data indicate that active fraction of TT can be developed into a potential oral drug for improving the regeneration and repair of intestinal epithelia that have intestinal radiation damage.

Krüppel-like factor 9 (Klf9), a zinc-finger transcription factor, is implicated in the control of cell proliferation, cell differentiation, and cell fate. Using Klf9-null mutant mice, we have investigated the involvement of Klf9 in intestine crypt-villus cell renewal and lineage determination. We report the predominant expression of Klf9 gene in small and large intestine smooth muscle (muscularis externa). Jejunums null for Klf9 have shorter villi, reduced crypt stem/transit cell proliferation, and altered lineage determination as indicated by decreased and increased numbers of goblet and Paneth cells, respectively. A stimulatory role for Klf9 in villus cell migration was demonstrated by bromodeoxyuridine labeling. Results suggest that Klf9 controls the elaboration, from intestine smooth muscle, of molecular mediator(s) of crypt cell proliferation and lineage determination and of villus cell migration.

The transport characteristics of fluorescein methotrexate (F-MTX) were studied by using the rat intestinal crypt cell line IEC-6. Enhanced accumulation of F-MTX at 4°C suggests the existence of an active efflux system. MK-571, an inhibitor of the multidrug resistance-associated protein/ATP binding cassette C (MRP/ABCC) family, also enhanced the accumulation of F-MTX. Transcellular transport of F-MTX from the apical to the basolateral compartment was 2.5 times higher than the opposite direction. This vectorial transport was also reduced by MK-571, indicating the presence of Mrp-type transporter(s) on the basolateral membrane. Mrp3 mRNA was readily detectable, and the protein was localized on the basolateral membrane. Uptake of FMTX into membrane vesicles from IEC-6 cells and Spodoptera frugiperda-9 cells expressing rat Mrp3 were both ATP dependent and saturable as a function of the F-MTX concentration. Similar Km values (11.0 ± 1.8 and 4.5 ± 1.1 μM) and inhibition profiles by MK-571, estradiol-17β-d-glucuronide, and taurocholate for the ATP-dependent transport of F-MTX into these vesicles were obtained. These findings suggest that the efflux of F-MTX is mediated by Mrp3 on the basolateral membrane of IEC-6 cells.
