HHS Recovery Act Recipient Reporting Readiness Tool

Step 4. Review and Copy the Grant Awards Data

TAGGS provides some – but not all – of the data needed for the Recipient Report. Recipients are responsible for directly collecting and reporting all required data to FederalReporting.gov. Data that HHS does not currently collect are highlighted in yellow. Do not copy this highlighted information. Please enter the appropriate data for your organization in these required fields. For assistance with entering these data please contact FederalReporting.gov.

You may capture the data HHS does provide by copying data from this screen and pasting it into the reporting format of your choice, such as the Excel spreadsheet template, the XML template, or by logging into the online form. For assistance with copying and pasting these data please e-mail our help desk at Readiness Help.

Award Description
DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The mammalian intestinal epithelium is a dynamic system in which proliferation, migration, differentiation, and apoptosis are carefully orchestrated throughout the lifespan of an organism. Proliferation of multipotent stem cells and progenitor (also called transient amplifying) cells is confined to the crypt epithelium of the intestine. Recent studies have identified several important signaling pathways that are involved in maintaining intestinal epithelial cell homeostasis. Among these, the Wnt pathway is critical for the proliferation and self-renewal of multipotent stem cells, as demonstrated by the marking of these cells by Wnt targets such as LGR5, OLFM4 and ASCL2. However, the exact intracellular mediators of proliferation of intestinal stem cells and progenitor cells have not been definitively identified. Further characterization of the molecular network that controls crypt cell proliferation will increase the understanding of the precise mechanism that regulates intestinal epithelial cell proliferation and help elucidate the molecular pathogenesis underlying certain disease processes such as inflammatory bowel disease and neoplasm of the intestinal tract. The long term goal of this research project is to understand the molecular mechanisms regulating intestinal epithelial cell proliferation. The project supported by the grant (DK052230) on which this renewal application is based established that the zinc finger transcription factor, Kr¿ppel-like factor 5 (KLF5), plays an important role in regulating proliferation of intestinal epithelial cells. Expression of KLF5 is highly enriched in the proliferating crypt epithelial cell compartment of the intestinal epithelium. In vitro, KLF5 exhibits a pro-proliferative effect on intestinal epithelial cells. In addition, we showed that KLF5 is a mediator for the proliferative or regenerative response of intestinal epithelial cells to external stressors such as lipopolysaccharide (LPS), pathogenic bacterial infection by Citrobacter rodentium, and dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced colitis. Furthermore, we demonstrated that KLF5 is a crucial mediator for formation of intestinal adenomas in mice with ApcMin mutation or combined ApcMin and activating KRAS mutations. Based on these observations, we propose the central hypothesis that KLF5 is an essential intracellular regulator of proliferation of intestinal crypt stem cells and progenitor cells. We propose three specific aims to test this hypothesis: (1) To investigate the effect of conditional deletion of Klf5 from the intestinal epithelium on intestinal epithelial cell proliferation in vivo; (2) To establish an essential role for KLF5 in mediating the oncogenic effect of activated KRAS in intestinal epithelial cells in vivo; and (3) To investigate the mechanism by which the Wnt pathway regulates KLF5 protein stability. These experiments will provide definitive evidence that KLF5 is an essential in vivo mediator controlling proliferation of intestinal epithelial cells. In addition, they will also establish that KLF5 mediates the oncogenic activity of mutated KRAS and activated Wnt signaling. The results may demonstrate that KLF5 is a potential therapeutic target for diseases with increased proliferation such as colon cancer.
