Regulation of water movement in the gut is an important homeostatic event that is critical to normal intestinal function. We assessed the effect of neuropeptide Y (NPY) on epithelial ion transport in the normal and inflamed mouse colons. Colitis was induced by dextran sodium sulfate (DSS, 4% wt./vol.) administered in the drinking water for 5days followed by 3days of regular water. Segments of proximal...
Transforming growth factor β (TGFβ) is a multifunctional cytokine with effects on many cell types. We recently showed that in addition to epithelial barrier enhancing properties, TGFβ causes diminished cAMP-driven chloride secretion in colonic epithelia, in a manner that is p38 MAPK-dependent. In this study, we sought to further delineate the mechanism behind TGFβ diminution of chloride secretion...
