We gratefully acknowledge Dr. Deborah L. Gumucio as our advisor and for her invaluable support in defining the culture and imaging methods. We also thank Dr. Jim Brodie, Dr. Hong-Xiang Lu, Dr. Charlotte Mistretta, and Dr. Ann Grosse for their contributions to the development of the whole intestine organ culture system. Helpful discussions on imaging provided excellent advice from Dr. Chip Montrose, Michael Czerwinski and Sasha Meshinchi. All imaging was performed in the Microscopy and Image Analysis Laboratory at the University of Michigan. Funding support was provided by NIH R01 DK065850.

Each intestinal villus is composed of two main tissue compartments: an epithelial surface layer and a mesenchymal core. The mouse small intestine is formed at embryonic day 10 when a sheet of endoderm closes and seals to form a tube of epithelium surrounded by mesenchymal cells3. This flat tube of epithelium undergoes rapid proliferation, growing both in length and girth and undergoes dramatic rearrangements involving dynamic cell shape changes1. At the same time, the surrounding mesenchyme also undergoes many developmental processes including the formation of the vascular plexus, differentiation of smooth muscle and recruitment of enteric neurons4. In the proximal small intestine at embryonic day 14.5, condensations (clusters) of Hedgehog- and PDGF-responsive cells begin to form adjacent to the epithelium2,5. Formation of mesenchymal clusters continues to spread along the length of the intestine so that they cover the entirety of the small intestine by embryonic day 16.52. As mesenchymal clusters form, the epithelial cells closest to the clusters begin to withdraw from the cell cycle, while the other epithelial cells continue to proliferate. Those cells directly above the mesenchymal cluster that have withdrawn from the cell cycle begin to change shape as the emerging villus buckles into the lumen. Further growth of the villus is driven in part by the continued proliferation of the epithelium between the emerging villi. The mesenchymal clusters remain tightly adhered to the epithelium of the growing villus and continue to express a variety of signaling molecules. The wave of villus emergence propagates along the length of the small intestine following the formation of mesenchymal clusters. As the intestine continues to grow and the intervillus region extends between emerging villi, new mesenchymal clusters form adjacent to the intervillus epithelium and further rounds of villus emergence and growth ensue6.
Synchronized development of the epithelium and mesenchyme is essential for villus morphogenesis. Signaling molecules are secreted from one layer to the other where receptors receive and transduce the signal message in order to coordinate development between the epithelium and mesenchyme. Mesenchymal clusters act as signaling centers and express a variety of developmental morphogens7-10. Disruption of cluster formation or pattern results in loss of villus emergence and pattern. Inhibition of PDGF signaling results in fewer clusters and fewer villi and those villi that do form are misshapen following the abnormal clusters11. Loss of Hedgehog signaling results in complete loss of cluster formation and failure of villus emergence2,12. Together, these data demonstrate that clusters coordinate development of the villus epithelium with its mesenchymal core.
Using this whole organ culture system, we are able to alter signaling involved in epithelial-mesenchymal cluster cross-talk to determine the role of those signals in villus morphogenesis. Two-photon confocal optical sectioning and reconstruction afford the ability to visualize cluster formation and villus emergence in three-dimensions and better understand the spatial relationships between the mesenchymal clusters and their overlying epithelium. Extending the culture system to four dimensions, we can capture z-stacks of developing clusters and villi over time and observe these interactions. Ultimately, the ability to follow villus development in this manner and observe changes that occur with altered signaling will revolutionize the understanding of epithelial mesenchymal interactions in villus morphogenesis.

mouse fetal whole intestine culture system for ex vivo manipulation of signaling pathways and three-dimensional live imaging of villus development

Большинство морфогенетические процессы в кишечнике плода были выведены из тонких срезов фиксированных тканей, обеспечивая снимки изменений более стадиях развития. Трехмерная информация из тонких серийных срезов может быть сложным для интерпретации в связи с трудностями восстановления серийных срезов прекрасно и поддержание правильной ориентации ткани над серийных срезов. Недавние открытия, сделанные Grosse др., 2011 подчеркивают важность трехмерной информации в понимании морфогенез развивающихся ворсинок кишечника 1. Трехмерная реконструкция однократно меченных клеток кишечника показали, что большинство из эпителиальных клеток кишечника связаться оба апикальных и базальных поверхностей. Кроме того, трехмерная реконструкция цитоскелета на апикальной поверхности эпителия показали, что просвет кишечника непрерывна и что вторичные люмен являются артефактом сectioning. Эти две точки, наряду с демонстрацией interkinetic атомной миграции в кишечном эпителии, определяется развивающийся кишечный эпителий как многорядный эпителий, а не расслаивается, как считалось ранее 1. Возможность наблюдать эпителия трехмерно был семенных к демонстрации этой точки и переосмысление эпителиальных морфогенез в плода кишечника. С развитием многофотонной технологии визуализации и трехмерного программного обеспечения реконструкции, способность визуализировать нетронутыми, разработки органы быстро улучшается. Двухфотонного возбуждения позволяет менее вредны проникновение вглубь тканей с высоким разрешением. Двухфотонное изображений и 3D реконструкция целых плода кишечника мыши в Уолтон и др., 2012 помог определить структуру ворсинок вырост 2. Здесь мы опишем всю систему органной культуре, которая позволяет экс естественных развитие ворсинок и расширений этой системы культуры, чтобы позволитькишечник, чтобы быть трехмерно отображаемого в процессе их развития.

Культура целых эксплантатах плода кишечника позволяет анализов расположения, распределения и продолжительности сигнальных молекул, которые координируют кишечного развитие, так как эта система позволяет манипулировать сигнализации с фармакологических реагентов или рекомбинантных...
