Aryl hydrocarbon receptor utilises cellular zinc signals to maintain the gut epithelial barrier
2022-11-04
Abstract excerpt
Both zinc and plant-derived ligands of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) are dietary components which regulate intestinal epithelial barrier function and protect against Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) 1,2 . Here, we explore whether zinc and AHR pathway are linked using a mouse IBD model with follow-on studies on human and mouse ileum organoids. Our data demonstrate that AHR regulates cellular zinc uptake, and...
