Deoxynivalenol (DON) is a toxin found in cereals as well as in processed products such as pasta, and causes substantial economic losses for stock breeding as it induces vomiting, reduced feeding, and reduced growth rates in piglets. Oxidative phosphorylation, TCA-cycle, transcription, and translation have been hypothesized to be leading pathways th...
The emerging Fusarium mycotoxins beauvericin (BEA) and enniatin (ENN) A, ENN A1, ENN B and ENN B1 gain increasing interest due to their highly prevalent contamination of cereals and cereal products. After oral intake, the gastro-intestinal tract is the first possible site of interaction. In the present in vitro study, the relative cytotoxicity of t...

Because of rare glucagon-like peptide-2 (GLP-2) receptor (+) cells within the gut mucosa, the molecular mechanisms transducing the diverse actions of GLP-2 remain largely obscure. This research identified the naturally occurring intestinal cell lines that endogenously express GLP-2R and determined the molecular mechanisms of the protective effects ...

Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) invades porcine intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) and causes diarrhea and dehydration in pigs. In the present study, we showed a suppression of PEDV infection in porcine jejunum intestinal epithelial cells (IPEC-J2) by an increase in autophagy. Autophagy was activated by rapamycin at a dose that does not affe...

Three major enzyme-hydrolyzed peptides have been produced after simulative digestion in vitro of soybean β-conglycinin. The intestinal barrier of IPEC-J2 induced by β-conglycinin enzyme-hydrolyzed peptides was evaluated in this study. The increased alkaline phosphatase (AP) activity was actually linearly correlated with the incubation time by the h...

Background: Hydroxy-carboxylic acid receptor 2 (HCA2, also called GPR109A) belongs to the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) family and is found in humans, rats, mice, hamsters and guinea pigs, but there are almost no reports of this protein in other species. In this investigation, we speculated that AMP010014A09 (AMP+) is a homologue of GPR109A in ...

The allergens absorbed in immunoreactive form by the gut epithelium might induce the occurrence of allergy. The purpose of this study was to investigate the absorption and intracellular accumulation of the intact or hydrolyzed glycinin in the porcine intestinal epithelial cells (IPEC-J2). The IPEC-J2 cells were incubated by 0, 0.25, 0.5 and 1.0 mg/...
