The cyclooxygenase-expressing mesenchyme resists intestinal epithelial injury byparacrine signaling


ABSTRACT: Paracrine signals play pivotal roles in organ homeostasis. Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) play a key role in regulating epithelium homeostasis in the intestine while their paracrine effects are poorly characterized. Here, we identified prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) secreted by cyclooxygenase (COX)-expressing MSCs as a vital factor to maintain the intestinal mucosal barrier. We found that MSCs-induced organoid swelling through paracrine effect in vitro, a process due to enhanced water adsorption and is mediated by the COX-PGE2-EP4 axis. To further explore the regulatory effect of this axis on the intestinal epithelial barrier in vivo, we established the conditional knockout mouse model to specifically delete COX in MSCs and found that PGE2 reduction downregulated the gene Muc2 and induced a gastric metaplasia-like phenotype. Moreover, PGE2 defects increased the susceptibility of intestinal epithelium to colitis. Our study uncovers the paracrine signaling of COX-expressing MSCs in intestinal mucosal barrier maintenance, providing a basis for understanding the role of mesenchymal cells in the psychophysiology function of the intestine.
