BP
is regulated in adapting gut after small bowel resection

The loss of functional small
bowel surface area leads to a well-described adaptive response in the
remnant intestine. To elucidate its molecular regulation, a cohort of
cDNAs were cloned using a rat gut resection model and
subtractive/differential hybridization cloning techniques. This study
reports a novel cDNA termed "ileal remnant repressed" (IRR)-219,
which shares 80% nucleotide identity with the 3'end of a human
intestinal IgG Fc binding protein (IgGFc
BP) and is homologous to
human and rat mucins. IRR-219 mRNA is expressed in intestine and colon
only. At 48 h after 70% intestinal resection, mRNA levels
decreased two- to fivefold in the adaptive small bowel but increased
two- to threefold in the colon. Expression of IRR-219 was suppressed in
adaptive small bowel as late as 1 wk after resection. IRR-219
expression is also regulated during gut ontogeny. In situ hybridization
revealed IRR-219 expression in small intestinal and colonic goblet
cells only. Its unique patterns of expression during ontogeny and after
small bowel resection suggest distinctive roles in small bowel and
colonic adaptation.
