项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The specialized epithelial cells lining the gut's mucosal surface mediate important functions in digestive health and disease. Epithelial cell dysfunction can cause or contribute to disease states such as colon cancer and human inflammatory bowel disease (IBD: Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis). Together gut epithelial related diseases cause substantial morbidity and mortality in the US. Indoleamine 2,3 dioxygenase (IDO1), an enzyme that catabolizes the essential amino acid tryptophan to kynurenine, is one of the most highly upregulated genes in human IBD and animal models of colitis. Over the current K08 funding period we have determined using animal models and fixed IBD patient samples that colon epithelial cells (CECs) upregulate IDO1 in human IBD and in mouse colitis models. Though it has been proposed that IDO's main function in the gut it to promote immune tolerance, our data demonstrate that IDO1 activity also correlates with epithelial proliferation in animal models of colitis and colitis-associated cancer. Though experimental models and cancer cell lines provide valuable insights, these findings often do not translate to human disease. In this proposal we will use a novel epithelial cell culture technique to study the function and regulation of IDO1 in human gut epithelial cells. We hypothesize that "Cell type specific induction and regulation of IDO1 mediates a cell-autonomous proliferative response in native human intestinal epithelial cells through kynurenine metabolites." IDO1 is an important therapeutic target in diseases of chronic inflammation and malignancy. IDO1 inhibitors as well as agents that induce IDO1 are moving to clinical trial, thus it will be important to understand the implications of modifying IDO1 activity in the gut epithelium. The overall goal of this RO3 is to establish the system's utility as a new tool for the study of IDO1 in human gut epithelial cells. Preliminary data will be generated to support an RO1 application directed at understanding the broader functions of epithelial IDO1 as relates to human IBD and colon malignancy.

描述（由申请人提供）：肠道粘膜表面的特殊上皮细胞介导消化健康和疾病的重要功能。上皮细胞功能障碍可导致或促成结肠癌和人类炎症性肠病（IBD：克罗恩病和溃疡性结肠炎）等疾病状态。在美国，肠道上皮相关疾病导致大量发病率和死亡率。吲哚胺 2,3 双加氧酶 (IDO1) 是一种将必需氨基酸色氨酸分解代谢为犬尿氨酸的酶，是人类 IBD 和结肠炎动物模型中上调程度最高的基因之一。在当前的 K08 资助期间，我们使用动物模型和固定的 IBD 患者样本确定，结肠上皮细胞 (CEC) 在人类 IBD 和小鼠结肠炎模型中上调 IDO1。尽管有人提出 IDO 在肠道中的主要功能是促进免疫耐受，但我们的数据表明，IDO1 活性还与结肠炎和结肠炎相关癌症动物模型中的上皮增殖相关。尽管实验模型和癌细胞系提供了有价值的见解，但这些发现通常不能转化为人类疾病。在本提案中，我们将使用一种新型上皮细胞培养技术来研究 IDO1 在人肠道上皮细胞中的功能和调节。我们假设“IDO1 的细胞类型特异性诱导和调节通过犬尿氨酸代谢物介导天然人肠上皮细胞的细胞自主增殖反应。” IDO1是慢性炎症和恶性肿瘤疾病的重要治疗靶点。 IDO1 抑制剂以及诱导 IDO1 的药物正在进入临床试验，因此了解改变肠道上皮中 IDO1 活性的影响非常重要。该 RO3 的总体目标是确定该系统作为研究人类肠道上皮细胞中 IDO1 的新工具的实用性。将生成初步数据来支持 RO1 应用，旨在了解上皮 IDO1 与人类 IBD 和结肠恶性肿瘤相关的更广泛功能。
