摘 要:The intestinal mucosa is characterized by a high complexity in terms of structure and functions and allows for a controlled demarcation towards the gut *** the one hand it is responsible for pulping and selective absorption of alimentary substances ensuring the immunological tolerance,on the other hand it prevents the penetration of micro-organisms as well as bacterial *** continuous regeneration of surface epithelia along the crypt-villus-axis in the small intestine is crucial to assuring these various *** core phenomena of intestinal epithelia regeneration comprise cell proliferation,migration,differentiation,and *** partly contrarily oriented processes are molecularly balanced through numerous interacting signaling pathways like Wnt/β-catenin,Notch and Hedgehog,and regulated by various modifying *** of these modifiers is acyl-CoA synthetase 5(ACSL5).It plays a key role in de novo lipid synthesis,fatty acid degradation and membrane modifications,and regulates several intestinal processes,primarily through different variants of protein lipidation,e.g.,***5 was shown to interact with proapoptotic molecules,and besides seems to inhibit proliferation along the *** of its proapoptotic and antiproliferative characteristics it could be of significant relevance for intestinal homeostasis,cellular disorder and tumor development.
