Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, two key factors were identifed that have important and counterbalancing roles regulating intestinal epithelial growth processes: pericrypt myofbroblast-derived Wnt5a and the microbial metabolite butyrate. Intracellular Hsp25 inhibited YAMC proliferation and YAMC cell proliferation were enhanced via reduction of Hsp25 under butyrate condition with myofibroblasts conditioned medium and MS analysis revealed that the factor in conditioned medium was Wnt5a, especially a part of full length of Wnt5a: Wnt5a peptide (36mer amino acid). Synthesized Wnt5a peptide also reduced butyrate induced Hsp25 and promoted proliferation via β-catenin nuclear translocation in YAMC. Wnt5a peptide treatment in DSS colitis recovery phase model showed the quick recover compared to control. We conclude that Wnt5a peptide has an activity to promote colonic epithelial proliferation via reduction of Hsp25 under butyrate condition.
