It is becoming increasingly evident that the urocortins (Ucns) and their receptors are involved in the initiation and development of inflammation in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. There has not been a systematic study of the basal expression of Ucns or their receptors in the GI tract. Here, we examined basal expression of Ucn 2 and its high-affinity receptor, CRF-R2 in the rat GI tract. Ucn 2 mRNA...
Ghrelin was recently isolated from the rat stomach as an endogenous ligand for the growth-hormone secretagogue receptor (GHS-R) and is known to exist in the gastrointestinal tract and hypothalamus. In this study, we investigated in detail the distribution and morphologic characteristics of ghrelin-containing cells (ghrelin cells) in the gastrointestinal tract by immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization...
This study was designed to examine the developmental expression and the localization of the transforming growth factor alpha (TGF-α) in the upper gastrointestinal tract and pancreas of the rat. Immunohistochemical techniques using an antibody against rat TGF-α were performed on the stomach, duodenum and pancreas of fetuses (19 to 21 days of gestation), of pups during the suckling period (days 0 to...
