Fibronectin and collagen gene expression in healing experimental colonic anastomoses. 1991

Department of Surgery, University of Turku, Finland.

The temporal and spatial expression of fibronectin and type I and III collagen genes were studied 1-14 days after surgery in the healing rat colonic anastomosis using recombinant deoxyribonucleic acid techniques. Messenger ribonucleic acids (mRNAs) coding for fibronectin and type III collagen synthesis increased from the first day after operation and type I collagen synthesis increased from the second day after operation, as demonstrated by Northern hybridizations. Maximal mRNA production for fibronectin and collagens was seen at 2 and 7 days, respectively, after anastomosis. Activation of type I and III collagen genes in the anastomotic area was confined to tissues developing in the anastomotic line, the serosal surface and the submucosal layer. Strong fibronectin expression was observed in the same areas. The results suggest that genetic events leading to collagen synthesis in the anastomotic area start immediately after surgery. Maximal gene expression is not reached until 1 week after surgery.

D005353 Fibronectins Glycoproteins found on the surfaces of cells, particularly in fibrillar structures. The proteins are lost or reduced when these cells undergo viral or chemical transformation. They are highly susceptible to proteolysis and are substrates for activated blood coagulation factor VIII. The forms present in plasma are called cold-insoluble globulins.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D012333 RNA, Messenger RNA sequences that serve as templates for protein synthesis. Bacterial mRNAs are generally primary transcripts in that they do not require post-transcriptional processing. Eukaryotic mRNA is synthesized in the nucleus and must be exported to the cytoplasm for translation. Most eukaryotic mRNAs have a sequence of polyadenylic acid at the 3' end, referred to as the poly(A) tail. The function of this tail is not known for certain, but it may play a role in the export of mature mRNA from the nucleus as well as in helping stabilize some mRNA molecules by retarding their degradation in the cytoplasm.
