Abstract
MDR1 is an ATP-dependent transmembrane transporter primarily studied for its role in the detoxification of tissues and for its implication in resistance of tumor cells to chemotherapy treatment. Several studies also report on its expression on immune cells where it plays a protective role from xenobiotics and toxins. This review provides an overview of what is known on MDR1 expression in immune cells in human, and its implications in different pathologies and their treatment options.

Abstract
Ouabain is a glycoside with immunomodulating properties, and recent studies have suggested its use in adjuvant therapy for cancer treatment. Ouabain is known to modulate the immune system in vitro, and previous studies have revealed that ouabain can modulate the expression and activity of ABCB1, a protein associated with multidrug resistance present in immune system. Therefore, the present study investigated alterations in the expression and activity of ABCB1 in the thymi, peripheral blood monocytes and lymph nodes of Wistar rats and Swiss mice treated acutely or chronically with ouabain. A decrease of almost 45% in the monocyte count and an increase of 55% in the basophil count were observed. A significant decrease (75% reduction) in the amount of cells with ABCB1 activity was found in the thymocytes of ouabain-treated rats and mice. The possible implications of these results for cancer treatment are discussed.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE OF THE FIELD ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters are a superfamily of efflux pumps that transport numerous compounds across cell membranes. These transporters are located in various human tissues including peripheral blood cells, in particular lymphocytes, and present a high variability of expression and activity. This variability may affect the intracellular concentrations and efficacy of drugs acting within lymphocytes, such as antiretroviral drugs. AREAS COVERED IN THIS REVIEW This review focuses on the current knowledge about the expression, activity, roles and variability of ABC drug transporters in human lymphocytes. The identified modulating factors and their impact on the intracellular pharmacokinetics and efficacy of antiretroviral drugs are also detailed. WHAT THE READER WILL GAIN Controversial data regarding the expression, activity and sources of variability of ABC transporters in lymphocytes are discussed. The modulating factors and their pharmacological consequences regarding antiretroviral therapies are also provided. TAKE HOME MESSAGE Numerous studies have reported conflicting results regarding the expression and activity of ABC drug transporters in lymphocytes. Despite these discrepancies, which may partly result from heterogeneous analytical methods, ABCC1 appears to have the highest expression in lymphocytes and may thus play a predominant role in the resistance to antiretroviral drugs, particularly to protease inhibitors.

Abstract
Transporters influence the disposition of chemicals within the body by participating in absorption, distribution, and elimination. Transporters of the solute carrier family (SLC) comprise a variety of proteins, including organic cation transporters (OCT) 1 to 3, organic cation/carnitine transporters (OCTN) 1 to 3, organic anion transporters (OAT) 1 to 7, various organic anion transporting polypeptide isoforms, sodium taurocholate cotransporting polypeptide, apical sodium-dependent bile acid transporter, peptide transporters (PEPT) 1 and 2, concentrative nucleoside transporters (CNT) 1 to 3, equilibrative nucleoside transporter (ENT) 1 to 3, and multidrug and toxin extrusion transporters (MATE) 1 and 2, which mediate the uptake (except MATEs) of organic anions and cations as well as peptides and nucleosides. Efflux transporters of the ATP-binding cassette superfamily, such as ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1), multidrug resistance proteins (MDR) 1 and 2, bile salt export pump, multidrug resistance-associated proteins (MRP) 1 to 9, breast cancer resistance protein, and ATP-binding cassette subfamily G members 5 and 8, are responsible for the unidirectional export of endogenous and exogenous substances. Other efflux transporters [ATPase copper-transporting beta polypeptide (ATP7B) and ATPase class I type 8B member 1 (ATP8B1) as well as organic solute transporters (OST) alpha and beta] also play major roles in the transport of some endogenous chemicals across biological membranes. This review article provides a comprehensive overview of these transporters (both rodent and human) with regard to tissue distribution, subcellular localization, and substrate preferences. Because uptake and efflux transporters are expressed in multiple cell types, the roles of transporters in a variety of tissues, including the liver, kidneys, intestine, brain, heart, placenta, mammary glands, immune cells, and testes are discussed. Attention is also placed upon a variety of regulatory factors that influence transporter expression and function, including transcriptional activation and post-translational modifications as well as subcellular trafficking. Sex differences, ontogeny, and pharmacological and toxicological regulation of transporters are also addressed. Transporters are important transmembrane proteins that mediate the cellular entry and exit of a wide range of substrates throughout the body and thereby play important roles in human physiology, pharmacology, pathology, and toxicology.

Abstract
P-glycoprotein (P-gp) is an important drug transporter, which is expressed in a variety of cells, such as the intestinal enterocytes, the hepatocytes, the renal tubular cells and the intestinal and peripheral blood lymphocytes. We have studied the localization and the gene and protein expression of P-gp in these cells in horse. In addition we have compared the protein sequence of P-gp in horse with the protein sequences of P-gp in several other species. Real time RT-PCR and Western blot showed gene and protein expression of horse P-gp in all parts of the intestines, but there was no strict correlation between these parameters. Immunohistochemistry showed localization of P-gp in the apical cell membranes of the enterocytes and, in addition, staining was observed in the intestinal intraepithelial and lamina propria lymphocytes. Peripheral blood lymphocytes also stained for P-gp, and gene and protein expression of P-gp were observed in these cells. There was a high gene and protein expression of P-gp in the liver, with P-gp-immunoreactivity in the bile canalicular membranes of the hepatocytes. Gene and protein expression of P-gp were found in the kidney with localization of the protein in different parts of the nephrons. Protein sequence alignment showed that horse P-gp has two amino acid insertions at the N-terminal region of the protein, which are not present in several other species examined. One of these is a 99 amino acid long sequence inserted at amino acid positions 23-121 from the N-terminal. The other is a six amino acid long sequence present at the amino acid positions 140-145 from the N-terminal. The results of the present study indicate that P-gp has an important function for oral bioavailability, distribution and excretion of substrate compounds in horse.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Parenteral nutrition-associated liver disease (PNALD) is a major problem with prolonged total parenteral nutrition (TPN) administration. Our laboratory previously demonstrated significant changes in the expression of multidrug resistance genes (MDRs) 1 and 2, hepatocyte transporters, in a TPN mouse model. The present study hypothesized that these changes would lead to functional changes in the liver, and would contribute to the development of liver dysfunction. MATERIALS AND METHODS Mice received either intravenous saline and standard chow or TPN with or without intravenous lipids. Functional assays were performed after 7 days of infusion. RESULTS TPN with lipids led to a significant increase in serum bile acid levels, consistent with an early state of PNALD. Use of TPN without lipids prevented an elevation in bile acid levels. In both TPN groups, MDR2 expression was significantly (68%) lower than controls and bile phosphatidylcholine content, a functional measure of MDR2, was 40% less than controls. MDR1 expression in the TPN with lipid group was 31% higher than controls, whereas in the TPN without lipids mice there was no significant change. Hepatocyte extrusion of rhodamine dye, a measure of MDR1 function, declined only in the TPN with lipid group. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha expression decreased in both TPN groups. Fenofibrate given with TPN resulted in an increased expression of MDR1 and MDR2, and functionally increased hepatocyte rhodamine extrusion and presence of bile phosphatidylcholine in the TPN with lipid group. CONCLUSIONS The study shows that TPN led to alterations in the function of MDR1- and MDR2-expressed proteins. The changes help in the understanding of the mechanisms leading to PNALD, and suggest that fibrate administration may palliate these changes.

Abstract
IL-7 plays a crucial role in controlling T cell development and homeostasis. Since IL-7 may be derived from extraintestinal sources, and exogenous IL-7 broadly affects lymphoid populations, the actions of epithelial cell (EC)-derived IL-7 are not fully understood. The effect of intestinal specific expression of IL-7 on intestinal mucosal lymphocytes was investigated by using an IL-7 transgenic mouse model. We generated an intestinal EC-specific overexpressing IL-7 transgenic mouse model (IL-7(vill)) and compared their phenotype and function to wild-type C57BL/6J mice. EC-derived IL-7 overexpression was found to be exclusively in the small and large intestine. Numbers and subtypes of mucosal lymphocytes, including intraepithelial lymphocytes (IEL) and lamina propria lymphocytes (LPL), significantly changed in IL-7(vill) mice. From a functional standpoint, IEL proliferation also significantly increased in IL-7(vill) mice. IEL cytokine expression significantly changed in both T cell receptor (TCR)-alphabeta(+) and TCR-gammadelta(+) IEL subpopulations, including a significant increase in IFN-gamma and TNF-alpha as well as an increase in keratinocyte growth factor expression. EC expression of CD103 (integrin alpha(E)beta(7)), the ligand of E-cadherin, markedly upregulated and may account for a mechanism of the massive expansion of IEL in transgenic mice. Systemic lymphoid populations did not change in transgenic mice. IL-7 overexpression by intestinal EC significantly affected IEL phenotype and function. These results offer insight into the role of IL-7 in IEL development and suggest a critical role of EC-derived expression of IL-7 in the phenotype and function of IEL.

Abstract
There are many types of colitis models in animals that researchers use to elucidate the mechanism of action of human inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). These models are also used to test novel therapeutics and therapeutic treatment regimens. Here, we will review the characteristics of the mdr1a -/- model of spontaneous colitis that we believe make this model an important part of the IBD researcher's toolbox. We will also share new data that will reinforce the fact that this model is relevant in the study of IBD. Mdr1a -/- mice lack the murine multiple drug resistance gene for P-glycoprotein 170 that is normally expressed in multiple tissues including intestinal epithelial cells. These mice spontaneously develop a form of colitis at around 12 wk of age. The fact that the complexity of this model mirrors the complexity of disease in humans, as well as recent literature that links MDR1 polymorphisms in humans to Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis, makes this an appropriate animal model to study.

Abstract
Much is known about the pathways that control the biosynthesis, transport and degradation of sphingolipids. During the last two decades, considerable progress has been made regarding the roles this complex group of lipids play in maintaining membrane integrity and modulating responses to numerous signals. Further novel insights have been provided by the analysis of newly discovered genetic diseases in humans as well as in animal models harboring mutations in the genes whose products control sphingolipid metabolism and action. Through the description of the phenotypic consequences of genetic defects resulting in the loss of activity of the many proteins that synthesize, transport, bind, or degrade sphingolipids, this review summarizes the (patho)physiological functions of these lipids.

Abstract
The efflux proteins P-glycoprotein (P-gp), BCRP and members of the MRP-family (MRPs) are increasingly recognized as determinants of the absorption, tissue distribution and excretion of numerous drugs. A widely applied in vitro screening method, to assess the effect of these efflux transporters in transmembrane transport of drugs is based on the use of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC), in which the efflux of fluorescent dye Rhodamine 123 (Rh-123) can be easily measured. In avian species, the isolation of PBMCs is compromised by the presence of thrombocytes having approximately the same size. As an alternative, we validated the use of isolated splenocytes to assess Rhodamine 123 transport in the presence and absence of specific inhibitors for P-gp, MRPs and BCRP. Rh-123 efflux was concentration-dependent with the percentage of efflux that decreased with increasing concentrations. P-gp inhibitors, PSC833 and GF120918, significantly inhibit Rh-123 efflux, whereas inhibitors for MRPs and BCRP, MK571 and Ko-143, respectively, have a limited inhibitory effect. However, the effect of GF120918 was more pronounced as compared to PSC833, suggesting an additional role for BCRP next to P-gp in Rh-123 efflux. Moreover, fluoroquinolones were selected to test the applicability of the described model. None of these fluoroquinolones significantly inhibit P-gp function at concentrations up to 50 microM, with exception of danofloxacin and danofloxacin mesylate that were found to reduce Rh-123 efflux by approximately 15%.

Abstract
Recent studies suggest that P-glycoprotein (Pgp) encoded by MDR1 gene, may be an important factor in the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). In this study, we investigated intestinal Pgp expression and activity: (1) in IL10 deficient (IL10(-/-)) mice which spontaneously develop intestinal inflammation affecting the small and large intestine and (2) in DSS (dextran sodium sulfate)-induced rat colitis. In IL10(-/-) enterocolitis mice, rhodamine 123 efflux was reduced by two to three-fold along the small and large intestine. This decrease was associated with a reduction in membrane's Pgp protein levels. A similar three-fold decrease in Pgps activity and expression was observed in the proximal colon in DSS-induced colitis in rats. However, in the non-inflamed ileum in DSS-induced rat colitis, epithelial cell's Pgp activity and protein levels were unexpectedly increased. This effect was specific to local inflammation since LPS induced systemic inflammation did affect neither the intestinal rho 123 efflux transport nor the abundance of the Pgp protein. These data demonstrate for the first time, an impaired function of epithelial Pgp in IL10 deficient enterocolitis mice. They also show an increase in Pgps activity in the non-inflamed ileum in the DSS-induced rat colitis, which may represent an adaptive mechanism to compensate the impaired activity of Pgp in the colon.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Total parenteral nutrition (TPN) results in a loss of mucosal immune function by alterations in both phenotype and function of intraepithelial lymphocytes (IEL). We hypothesized that the observed changes with TPN administration are caused by the lack of enteral feeding, and not to the TPN solution itself. METHODS Mice received oral feeding (Control), TPN alone (TPN), or TPN plus oral feeding (TPN+Food). Mice were killed after 7 days, and bacteriological cultures from spleen, liver, and mesenteric lymph nodes obtained, with bacterial translocation (BT) being defined as a positive culture. IEL phenotype was analyzed by flow cytometry. IEL messenger RNA (mRNA) cytokine expression used reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Apoptosis was detected by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase biotin-dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) staining. RESULTS BT significantly (P < 0.05, with analysis of variance [ANOVA]) increased in the TPN group (53%) compared with Control (9%) and TPN+Food (14%) groups. TPN also resulted in a significant (P < 0.01) increase in epithelial cell apoptosis: TPN 7.6 +/- 1.1% versus Control 2.9 +/- 1.1% and TPN+Food 2.1 +/- 0.3% (mean +/- SD). Height of the villus-crypt complex was significantly decreased in TPN mice (315 +/- 16 microm) compared with Control (431 +/- 27 microm) and TPN+Food (421 +/- 26 microm) groups. IEL phenotypes significantly changed with TPN administration: CD4+ CD8- as well as CD4+ CD8+ subpopulations were reduced compared with Control or TPN+Food mice; as were the CD8alphabeta+ thymus-dependent, and CD8+ CD44+ mature IEL. IEL cytokine mRNA expression was also significantly altered with TPN: IL-2 and IL-10 expression declined, and IL-4 IL-6, interferon gamma (IFN-gamma), transforming growth factor beta-1 (TGF-beta1), and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) were increased, when compared with Control or TPN+Food mice. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrates that the major factor responsible for TPN-induced BT and IEL-changes is the lack of enteral feeding and not the administration of the TPN solution itself.

Abstract
Intestinal intraepithelial lymphocytes (IEL), one of the major effector components in the mucosal immune system, are phenotypically and functionally distinct from thymic and peripheral T cells. To investigate the effect of repeated stress on the number and function of IEL, we exposed male C3H/HeN mice to mild electric foot shock for 30 min/day for 5 consecutive days. Immediately after the final foot shock stress, the blood, spleen, thymus and small intestine of each of the mice were obtained. As a functional measure, we evaluated interferon (IFN)- gamma production by IEL, since IFN-gamma is a key immunomodulating cytokine in mucosal immune responses. Serum corticosterone level was elevated immediately after foot shock stress. There were no significant changes in the number of whole IEL and CD3+ IEL subsets after the stress. In contrast, the stress led to a significant decrease in the total number of thymocytes, particularly the reduction in the number of CD4+CD8+ thymocytes. Thymocytes expressed the highest level of intracellular glucocorticoid receptor (GR), followed by splenocytes and IEL. The foot shock stress induced a marked suppression of IFN-gamma production by IEL, when stimulated with immobilized anti-CD3 monoclonal antibody. Furthermore, corticosterone suppressed the IFN-gamma production by cultured IEL, which was prevented by Mifepristone (RU486), a GR antagonist. In summary, repeated foot shock stress did not alter the numbers of IEL and CD3+ IEL subsets, but suppressed IFN-gamma production by IEL, which was probably mediated by the elevated corticosterone. We therefore propose that stress influences host defense by suppressing the production of IFN-gamma in IEL.

Abstract
Mechanisms by which the intestinal epithelium resists invasion by food-borne pathogens such as Listeria monocytogenes are an evolving area of research. Intestinal P glycoprotein is well known to limit the absorption of xenobiotics and is believed to act as a cytotoxic defense mechanism. The aim of this study was to determine if intestinal P glycoprotein is involved in host defense against L. monocytogenes. Caco-2 cells and a P-glycoprotein-overexpressing subclone (Caco-2/MDR) were employed in addition to mdr1a(-/-) mice and wild-type controls. In vitro invasion assays and in vivo experiments were employed to measure bacterial invasion and dissemination. In addition, L. monocytogenes proteins were labeled with [(35)S]methionine, and the transepithelial transport across Caco-2 monolayers was characterized in both directions. Overexpression of P glycoprotein in Caco-2/MDR cells led to increased resistance to L. monocytogenes invasion, whereas P-glycoprotein inhibition led to increased invasion. Flux of [(35)S]methionine-labeled L. monocytogenes proteins was significantly greater in the basolateral-to-apical direction than in the apical-to-basolateral direction, indicating dependence on an apically located efflux transporter. Moreover, inhibiting P glycoprotein reduced the basolateral-to-apical flux of the proteins. Early dissemination of L. monocytogenes from the gastrointestinal tract was significantly greater in the mdr1a(-/-) mice than in wild-type controls. Expression and function of intestinal P glycoprotein is an important determinant in resistance to early invasion of L. monocytogenes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The intestinal adaptive response [increased epithelial cell (EC) proliferation and apoptosis] after massive small bowel resection (SBR) is partially controlled by intraepithelial lymphocytes (IEL). To identify IEL factors contributing to EC adaptation post-SBR we utilized microarray assays. METHODS Mice underwent a 70% SBR (SBR1w/SBR4w) or sham operation (Sham1w/Sham4w). After 1 or 4 weeks (1w, 4w) small bowel was harvested, and IEL isolated. Determination of the EC-proliferation rate used BrdU incorporation, and of the EC-apoptotic rate used Annexin V staining. Affymetrix system microarrays (12,491 genes) were performed to examine IEL-mRNA expression. Results were considered significant if fold-change (FC) between groups was >2 and P<0.05 (F-test), or FC>3 and 0.05> P >0.01, or FC>4 and P>0.05. Significant genes were confirmed by conventional RT-PCR. RESULTS The SBR EC-proliferation rate increased significantly in both 1w and 4w groups compared to Sham: SBR1w 0.24+/-0.07 vs. Sham1w 0.12+/-0.02 (P=0.03); SBR4w 0.35+/-0.04 vs. Sham4w 0.19+/-0.02 ( P<0.01). The EC-apoptotic rate was unchanged in the 1w group, but significantly differed from controls after 4 weeks: SBR4w 39.92+/-6.78 vs. Sham4w 12.56+/-6.44 ( P<0.01). Microarray results were analyzed to identify potential growth-modifying IEL genes. The following were identified (function in parenthesis; A, apoptosis; P, proliferation): lipocalin 2 (promotes A), angiotensin converting enzyme (increases A), Rap2 interacting protein (reduces A, promotes P), amphiregulin (promotes P) and leucine-rich-alpha2-glycoprotein (promotes A, reduces P). Based on RT-PCR results these genes showed significant changes between groups. The increase in ACE at 1w preceded the observed apoptotic changes. The alterations in lipocalin 2, Rap2 and amphiregulin at 4w coincided with the marked changes in growth and apoptosis in the SBR mice. CONCLUSIONS IEL undergo temporal changes after SBR. These findings provide profound insight into potential IEL-dependent regulation of EC homeostasis post-SBR.

Abstract
BACKGROUND During transport-associated adenosine triphosphate hydrolysis, P-glycoprotein (Pgp) undergoes conformation transitions detected by UIC2, a functional anti-Pgp monoclonal antibody. A newly developed UIC2 shift assay is based on increased UIC2 reactivity in the presence of Pgp substrates. All peripheral blood leukocytes express low Pgp levels. The existing antibody-based detection methods are limited in their sensitivity and require additional techniques to simultaneously analyze Pgp expression and efflux, making it difficult to ascertain the physiologic role of Pgp-mediated transport. METHODS We validated the UIC2 shift assay against UIC2 immunostaining and DiOC(2) efflux. The UIC2 shift assay was then used to characterize Pgp functional expression and its physiologic substrates in peripheral blood leukocytes. RESULTS A strong correlation was observed between the UIC2 shift assay versus immunostaining and dye efflux tests. The UIC2 shift assay showed improved sensitivity (compared with conventional UIC2 staining) and allowed for simultaneous detection of Pgp expression and function. Using this assay, we identified several new Pgp substrates, including monensin and retinol, and confirmed that interleukin-2 and interferon-gamma can be transported by Pgp. CONCLUSIONS Our findings validate the use of the UIC2 shift assay in MDR1 detection and support the idea that Pgp plays a physiologic role in immunoregulation.

Abstract
Total parenteral nutrition (TPN) results in an increase in intraepithelial lymphocyte (IEL)-derived interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) expression as well as an increase in epithelial cell (EC) apoptosis. This study examined the role that IEL-derived IFN-gamma has in the increase in EC apoptosis. Mice received either TPN or oral feedings for 7 days. Small bowel EC apoptosis significantly rose in mice receiving TPN. The administration of TPN also significantly increased IEL-derived IFN-gamma and Fas ligand (FasL) expression. EC apoptosis in IFN-gamma knockout (IFNKO) mice that received TPN was significantly lower than in wild-type TPN mice. Sensitivity of EC to Fas-mediated apoptosis in IFNKO mice was significantly lower than in wild-type TPN mice. Apoptosis in Fas-deficient and FasL-deficient mice that received TPN was significantly lower than in wild-type mice that received TPN. The TPN-induced increase in IFN-gamma expression appears to result in an increase in Fas-L expression and EC sensitivity to Fas, with a resultant increase in EC apoptosis. This may well be one of the mediators of increased EC apoptosis observed with TPN administration.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of total parenteral nutrition administration on intestinal ion transport and intestinal epithelial permeability. Additionally, to assess the role of interferon-gamma on the total parenteral nutrition-induced loss of epithelial barrier function. DESIGN Randomized, controlled study. SETTING Experimental laboratory, University of Michigan Medical School, Ann Arbor. SUBJECTS Adult wild-type and interferon-gamma knockout mice. INTERVENTIONS Wild-type mice received total parenteral nutrition or enteral diet (control group) for 7 days. Segments of small bowel from the mice were mounted in Ussing chambers. Short circuit current, as an indictor of active ion transport, was constantly monitored. Epithelial barrier function was assessed by measuring transepithelial resistance and transmural passage of 51Cr-EDTA and 3H-mannitol. Intestinal intraepithelial lymphocyte-derived interferon-gamma protein expression was detected with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and confirmed by using intracellular staining and flow cytometry. To investigate the effect of total parenteral nutrition on intestinal ion transport, we used a secretory agonist, carbachol, and an absorptive agent, glucose. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Total parenteral nutrition significantly increased small-bowel permeability. Ion transport in the total parenteral nutrition group was significantly increased. To stimulate ion transport, we found that increases in short circuit current induced by carbachol and glucose were higher in the total parenteral nutrition group compared with the control group. Intestinal intraepithelial lymphocyte interferon-gamma protein expression significantly increased with the administration of total parenteral nutrition. Intestinal permeability in interferon-gamma knockout total parenteral nutrition mice was significantly lower than in wild-type mice receiving total parenteral nutrition. CONCLUSION Total parenteral nutrition has significant effects on intestinal epithelial physiology, stimulating ion secretion and reducing epithelial barrier function. Interferon-gamma appears to play an important role in the loss of the epithelial barrier function that is associated with total parenteral nutrition.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the etiology of the loss of epithelial barrier function observed with the administration of total parenteral nutrition (TPN) in a mouse model. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA Removal of enteral nutrition with the administration of TPN is associated with a loss of intestinal epithelial barrier function. The etiology of this barrier loss is not clear. Because intraepithelial lymphocytes (IELs) produce a number of cytokines that may alter epithelial permeability, the authors investigated IEL cytokine expression in a mouse model of TPN. METHODS Adult C57BL/6 mice received TPN or enteral diet for 7 days. IELs were subsequently harvested and the mRNA expression of cytokines was measured. Epithelial barrier function was assessed in vitro with 51Cr-EDTA in Ussing chambers and was expressed as the permeability coefficient (Papp). RESULTS IEL mRNA expression of interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) rose from 0.14 +/- 0.07 in the control (enterally fed) group to 0.44 +/- 0.11 attomoles/microL in the TPN group (P <.05). Transforming growth factor-beta1 declined slightly but not significantly, from 0.75 +/- 0.35 to 0.55 +/- 0.18 attomoles/microL in the control and TPN groups, respectively. Epithelial barrier function declined significantly with TPN compared to controls. To assess the relevance of IFN-gamma changes, permeability in IFN-gamma knockout mice was studied. Barrier function was significantly higher in IFN-gamma knockout mice on TPN compared to C57BL/6 mice that received TPN. CONCLUSIONS IEL cytokine expression changes significantly with TPN administration. The partial correction with IFN-gamma knockout mice suggests that an upregulation of IFN-gamma expression is one mechanism responsible for the loss of the epithelial barrier associated with TPN.

Abstract
Infection with Toxoplasma gondii is naturally acquired through the oral route by ingestion of undercooked or raw meat containing cysts of the parasite or through ingestion of contaminated water or food contaminated with cysts or oocysts. Following peroral infection with 100 cysts of the ME49 strain of T. gondii, C57BL/6 mice die within 13 days after infection, whereas BALB/c mice survive. At day 7 of infection, massive necrosis of the villi and mucosal cells in the ilea is observed in C57BL/6 but not BALB/c mice. CD4(+) T cells, interferon-gamma, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, and inducible nitric oxide synthase mediate the development of necrosis. These findings indicate a Th1-type immunopathology, with parasite replication appearing to be involved in the first 3 days of infection. Murine and human studies on the immunopathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease (e.g., Crohn's disease) also indicate a Th1-type immunopathology. The shared and distinct features of oral infection of mice with T. gondii and murine models of inflammatory bowel disease are discussed herein.

Abstract
mdr1a-deficient mice lack P-glycoprotein and spontaneously develop colitis with age. Helicobacter spp. are gram-negative organisms that have been associated with colitis in certain mouse strains, but Helicobacter spp. have been excluded as contributing to the spontaneous colitis that develops in mdr1a-/- mice. We wished to determine whether infection with either H. bilis or H. hepaticus would accelerate the development of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in mdr1a-/- mice. We found that H. bilis infection induced diarrhea, weight loss, and IBD in mdr1a-/- mice within 6 to 17 weeks post-inoculation and before the expected onset of spontaneous IBD. Histopathology of H. bilis-induced IBD included crypt hyperplasia, inflammatory cell infiltrates, crypt abscesses, and obliteration of normal gut architecture. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction and Taqman analysis from colonic tissue showed increased transcripts for interferon-gamma and interleukin-10 from H. bilis-infected colitic mdr1a-/- mice. Additionally, mesenteric lymph nodes had increased cellularity with expansion of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells and B cells and increased proliferation to soluble H. bilis antigens with elaboration of interferon-gamma, tumor necrosis factor-alpha and interleukin-10. In contrast, H. hepaticus infection of mdr1a-/- mice did not accelerate disease but rather delayed the onset of spontaneous colitis which was milder in severity. mdr1a-/- mice infected with Helicobacter spp. may provide a useful tool to explore the pathogenesis of microbial-induced IBD in a model with a presumed epithelial cell "barrier" defect.

Abstract
Multidrug resistance proteins (p-glycoprotein and mrps) are becoming increasingly important to explain the pharmacokinetics and action of drugs. Located in epithelial and endothelial cells of the gastrointestinal tract, liver, kidney, blood brain barrier, choroid plexus and other organs, they are critical determinants for the movement of a large number of commonly prescribed drugs across cellular barriers. Here we provide a brief overview of the role of multidrug resistance proteins in drug absorption from the gastrointestinal tract. We address the different types of multidrug resistance proteins involved, describe experimental models to study the influence of these proteins on transcellular transport and discuss the impact of multidrug resistance proteins on overall drug bioavailability in vivo.

Abstract
Locally resident intraepithelial lymphocytes (IELs) are primarily T cells with potent cytolytic and immunoregulatory capacities, which they use to sustain epithelial integrity. Here, we consider that most IEL compartments comprise a variable mixture of two cell types: T cells primed to conventional antigen in the systemic compartment and T cells with ill-defined reactivities and origins, whose properties seem to place them mid-way between the adaptive and innate immune responses. We review the capacity of IELs to limit the dissemination of infectious pathogens and malignant cells and to control the infiltration of epithelial surfaces by systemic cells. An improved characterization of IELs would seem essential if we are to understand how immune responses and immunopathologies develop at body surfaces.
