    Abstract Cholesterol-rich membrane domains, also called lipid rafts (LRs), are specialized membrane domains that provide a platform for intracellular signal transduction. Membrane proteins often cluster in LRs that further aggregate into larger platform-like structures that are enriched in ceramides and are called ceramide-rich platforms (CRPs). The role of CRPs in the regulation of intestinal epithelial functions remains unknown. Down-regulated in adenoma (DRA) is an intestinal Cl

    Abstract The introduction of biologics such as anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) monoclonal antibodies followed by anti-integrins has dramatically changed the therapeutic paradigm of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). Furthermore, a newly developed anti-p40 subunit of interleukin (IL)-12 and IL-23 (ustekinumab) has been recently approved in the United States for patients with moderate to severe Crohn's disease who have failed treatment with anti-TNFs. However, these immunosuppressive therapeutics which focus on anti-inflammatory mechanisms or immune cells still fail to achieve long-term remission in a significant percentage of patients. This strongly underlines the need to identify novel treatment targets beyond immune suppression to treat IBD. Recent studies have revealed the critical role of intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) in the pathogenesis of IBD. Physical, biochemical and immunologic driven barrier dysfunctions of epithelial cells contribute to the development of IBD. In addition, the recent establishment of adult stem cell-derived intestinal enteroid/organoid culture technology has allowed an exciting opportunity to study human IECs comprising all normal epithelial cells. This long-term epithelial culture model can be generated from endoscopic biopsies or surgical resections and recapitulates the tissue of origin, representing a promising platform for novel drug discovery in IBD. This review describes the advantages of intestinal enteroids/organoids as a research tool for intestinal diseases, introduces studies with these models in IBD, and gives a description of the current status of therapeutic approaches in IBD. Finally, we provide an overview of the current endeavors to identify a novel drug target for IBD therapy based on studies with human enteroids/organoids and describe the challenges in using enteroids/organoids as an IBD model.

    Abstract Organoid research is enhancing understanding of human development and diseases as well as aiding in medication development and selection, raising hopes for even more future therapeutic options. Nevertheless, this work raises important ethical issues and there is a paucity of data regarding patients' perspectives on them. We report on 60 interviews with adult patients or parents of pediatric patients from diverse disease populations who receive medical care at a major academic research institution in the United States. Interviewees expressed broad support for organoid development and use. However, patients viewed brain organoids, and sometimes gonadal organoids, as morally distinct; and some organoid research poses moral concerns. Nonetheless, patients generally understood the potential value of such research and approved of it, provided it was aimed at good intent and conducted with ethical oversight and a robust consent process. These data should help inform conceptual and policy deliberations about appropriate organoid use.

    Abstract Use of human enteroids studied in the undifferentiated and differentiated state that mimic the intestinal crypt and villus, respectively, has allowed studies of multiple enterocyte populations, including a large population of enterocytes that are transitioning from the crypt to the villus. This population expresses NHE3, DRA, and CFTR, representing a combination of Na absorptive and anion secretory functions. In this cell population, these three transporters physically interact, which affects their baseline and regulated activities. A study of this cell population and differentiated Caco-2 cells transduced with NHE3 and endogenously expressing DRA and CFTR has allowed an understanding of previous studies in which cAMP seemed to stimulate and inhibit DRA at the same time. Understanding the contributions of these cells to overall intestinal transport function as part of the fasting and post-prandial state and their contribution to the pathophysiology of diarrheal diseases and some conditions with constipation will allow new approaches to drug development.

    Abstract Background/aims: NHE3 (Na
    Methods: The use of a genetically modified fluorescent protein, mOrange2 was explored as an intracellular pH sensor protein to measure exchange activity of NHE3 and DRA. The model used was FRT cells stably expressing NHE3 or DRA with intracellular pH measured by changes of mOrange2 fluorescence intensity. Intracellular pH was monitored using a) Isolated single clones of FRT/mOrange2/HA-NHE3 cells studied in a confocal microscope with time-lapse live cell imaging under basal conditions and when NHE3 was inhibited by exposure to forskolin and stimulated by dexamethasone, b) coverslip grown FRT/mOrange2 cells expressing NHE3 or DRA using a computerized fluorometer with a perfused cuvette with standardization of the mOrange2 absorption and emission signal using K
    Results: A similar rate of intracellular alkalization by Na
    Conclusion: This study demonstrates that mOrange2 protein can be an effective alternate to BCECF-AM in measuring intracellular pH (preferred setting Ex520nm, Em 563nm) as affected by NHE3 and DRA activity, with the advantage, compared to AM ester dyes, that genetic expression can provide uniform expression of the pH sensor.

    Abstract Cyclic nucleotide elevation in intestinal epithelial cells is the key pathology causing intestinal fluid loss in secretory diarrheas such as cholera. Current secretory diarrhea treatment is primarily supportive, and oral rehydration solution is the mainstay of cholera treatment. There is an unmet need for safe, simple and effective diarrhea treatments. By promoting cAMP hydrolysis, extracellular calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) is a regulator of intestinal fluid transport. We studied the antidiarrheal mechanisms of FDA-approved CaSR activator cinacalcet and tested its efficacy in clinically relevant human cell, mouse and intestinal organoid models of secretory diarrhea. By using selective inhibitors, we found that cAMP agonists-induced secretory short-circuit currents (I
