Abstract
This study investigates the distribution and role of the stem cell marker Troy (Tnfrsf19) in the gastric mucosa of rats during postnatal development and the effects of early weaning. Troy, previously identified as a reserve stem cell marker in adult gastric tissues, is examined across various developmental stages from birth to adulthood. We showed that Troy+ cells are scattered throughout the gastric gland in early postnatal stages, but they become concentrated in the basal portion of the gland as the rats mature. Additionally, early weaning affects Troy expression at its gene and protein levels, altering its distribution in the gastric mucosa. This suggests that early dietary changes may disrupt the organization and function of the secondary stem cell niche in the stomach, potentially impacting gastric gland homeostasis. We also used in silico analysis to compare the molecular functions of Troy+ zymogenic and parietal cells, finding distinct roles in proliferation and secretion. The results underscore the importance of Troy in gastric development and highlight the long-term impact of early weaning on gastric tissue organization and cell proliferation dynamics.
期刊介绍:
Each month, the journal publishes easy-to-assimilate, up-to-the minute reports of experimental findings by researchers using a wide range of the latest techniques. Promoting the aims of cell biologists worldwide, papers reporting on structure and function - especially where they relate to the physiology of the whole cell - are strongly encouraged. Molecular biology is welcome, as long as articles report findings that are seen in the wider context of cell biology. In covering all areas of the cell, the journal is both appealing and accessible to a broad audience. Authors whose papers do not appeal to cell biologists in general because their topic is too specialized (e.g. infectious microbes, protozoology) are recommended to send them to more relevant journals. Papers reporting whole animal studies or work more suited to a medical journal, e.g. histopathological studies or clinical immunology, are unlikely to be accepted, unless they are fully focused on some important cellular aspect.
These last remarks extend particularly to papers on cancer. Unless firmly based on some deeper cellular or molecular biological principle, papers that are highly specialized in this field, with limited appeal to cell biologists at large, should be directed towards journals devoted to cancer, there being very many from which to choose.
