| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Treatment of cyclosporine ameliorated mucosal destruction through reduction of epithelial apoptosis in DSS-induced colitis model. IL-22 receptor expression and STAT3 phosphorylation in purified intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) were up-regulated in cyclosporine but not in vehicle treated mice. Anti-TGF-beta mAb treatment diminished the protective effect of cyclosporine. In addition, anti-TGF-beta mAb treatment diminished up-regulated IL-22 receptor expression and STAT3 phosphorylation in IECs. In Caco2 cells, the treatment with both cyclosporine and recombinant TGF-beta increased IL-22 receptor expression. These results demonstrate that treatment of cyclosporine can ameliorate apoptosis-mediated epithelial damage through epithelial IL-22 receptor-STAT3 signaling pathway, which required the TGF-beta stimulation.
