Abstract

Disabled‐2 (Dab2) is an intracellular adaptor protein proposed to function in endocytosis. Here, we investigate the intestinal and renal Dab2 expression versus maturation. Dab2 mRNA levels measured by RT‐PCR are greater in the small than in the large intestine. Immunological studies localize Dab2 to the terminal web domain of the enterocytes and reveal the presence of a 96‐kDa Dab2 isoform in the apical membrane of the jejunum, ileum, and renal cortex of the suckling and adult rat. A 69‐kDa Dab2 isoform is only observed in the apical membranes of the suckling ileum. During the suckling period, the Dab2 mRNA levels measured in the enterocytes and crypts and those of the 96‐kDa Dab2 isoform are greater in the ileum than in the jejunum. No segmental differences are observed in the adult intestine. In the intestine, the levels of Dab2 mRNA and those of the 96‐kDa Dab2 isoform decrease to adult values at weaning, whereas in the kidney they increase with development. Weaning the pups on a commercial milk diet slows the periweaning decline in the levels of Dab2 mRNA in the crypts and of those of the 96‐kDa isoform. This is the first report showing that the 96‐kDa Dab2 isoform is expressed at the apical domain of rat small intestine, that ontogeny regulates Dab2 gene expression in intestine and kidney and that retarding weaning affects intestinal Dab2 gene expression.

Human intestinal trefoil factor (hITF) is a small cysteine-rich protein expressed in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Its sequence is related to that of other trefoil peptides including the pNR-2/pS2 protein, which is regulated by oestrogen in breast cancer. This study was designed to investigate wh
