Paneth cells mediated the response of intestinal stem cells at the early stage of intestinal inflammation in the chicken.

ABSTRACT: The rapid renewal and repair of the intestinal mucosa are based on intestinal stem cells (ISC), which are located at the crypt bottom. Paneth cells are an essential component in the crypt, which served as the niche for ISC development. However, in the chicken, how the function of Paneth cells changes during intestinal inflammation is unclear and is the key to understand the mechanism of mucosal repair. In the present study, 36 HyLine White chickens (7 d of age, n = 6) were randomly divided into 1 control and 5 lipopolysaccharide (LPS) injection groups. The chickens were injected (i.p.) with PBS in the control group, however, were injected (i.p.) with LPS (10 mg/kg BW) in the LPS injection groups, which would be sampled at 5 time points (1 h postinjection [hpi], 2 hpi, 4 hpi, 6 hpi, and 8 h
