  • the Human Digestive System is a collection of specialized organs and body tissues that prepare food for use by hundreds of millions of body cells. Food when eaten cannot reach cells because it cannot pass through ' the intestinal walls to the bloodstream and, if it could would not be in a useful chemical state.
  • the gut modifies food physically and chemically and disposes of unusable waste. Physical and chemical modification (digestion) depends on exocrine and endocrine secretions and controlled movement of food through the digestive tract.
  • the three fundamental processes of the Digestive System are: Secretion (e.g., delivery of enzymes, mucus, ions and the like into the lumen, and hormones into blood), Absorption (e.g., transport of water, ions and nutrients from the lumen, across the epithelium and into blood), and Motility (e.g., contraction's of smooth muscle in the wall of the tube that crush, mix and propel its contents).
  • Secretion e.g., delivery of enzymes, mucus, ions and the like into the lumen, and hormones into blood
  • Absorption e.g., transport of water, ions and nutrients from the lumen, across the epithelium and into blood
  • Motility e.g., contraction's of smooth muscle in the wall of the tube that crush, mix and propel its contents.
  • Control of digestive function is achieved through a combination of electrical and hormonal messages which originate either within the digestive system's own nervous and endocrine systems, as well as from the central nervous sytem and
  • the digestive system is composed of the digestive or alimentary tube and accessory digestive organs, which include the Mouth (e.g., tongue, taste buds, soft palate pharynx, salivary glands, teeth), Esophagus, Stomach, Liver, Gallbladder,
  • Mouth e.g., tongue, taste buds, soft palate pharynx, salivary glands, teeth
  • Esophagus Stomach, Liver, Gallbladder
  • Pancreas, Small Intestine e.g., duodenum, jejunum, and ileum
  • Large Intestine e.g., duodenum, jejunum, and ileum
  • Dysphagia may be prominent in cases of degenerative disease of the central nervous system, especially of the ganglia at the base of the brain.
  • Congenital disorders of the esophagus are most often seen in infancy, primarily as a failure to develop normal passageways.
  • the lower end of the esophagus is subject to various developmental anomalies that shorten the organ so that the stomach is pulled up into the thoracic cavity. Anomalies of the diaphragm may contribute to a similiar outcome.
  • Inflammatory disorders of the esophagus result from a variety of causes; for example, ingestion of noxious materials (e.g., corrosive esophagitis), lodgment of foreign bodies, or a complex of events associated with reflux of gastric contents from the stomach into the lower esophagus (e.g., peptic esophagitis).
  • noxious materials e.g., corrosive esophagitis
  • lodgment of foreign bodies e.g., a complex of events associated with reflux of gastric contents from the stomach into the lower esophagus (e.g., peptic esophagitis).
  • Benign tumors of the esophagus originate in the submucosal tissues and principally are leiomyomas (tumors composed of smooth muscle tissue) or lipomas (tumors composed of adipose, or fat, tissues).
  • Malignant tumors are either epidermal cancers, made up of unorganized aggregates of cells, or adenocarcinomas, in which there are gland-like formations.
  • Cancers arising from squamous tissues are found at all levels of the organ, whereas adenocarcinomas are more common at the lower end where a number of glands of gastric origin are normally present.
  • the prognosis is poor because diagnosis is difficult and the tumor has usually been growing for one or two years before symptoms are apparent.
  • Any disorder that affects the power of coordination of the stomach muscles is capable of producing symptoms ranging from those that are mildly unpleasant (e.g., anorexia and nausea) to others that are life-threatening.
  • the intrinsic muscles of the stomach are innervated by branches of the vagus nerves, which travel along the esophagus from their point of emergence in the brain stem. Severing these nerves or altering their function by the use of anticholinergic medication may produce temporary or more prolonged change in the ability of the stomach to empty itself. Gastric retention may result from the degeneration of the nerves to the stomach that can result from diabetes mellitus.
  • ulcerative diseases which involve mucosal breakdown either confined ' to the superficial layers of the mucosa (e.g., an erosion) or extending through the intrinsic layer of muscle of the mucosa into the tissues below (e.g., an ulcer).
  • the circumstances that contribute to mucosal injury and ulcer formation include physical and chemical trauma that result from hot fluids and food, aspirin and other drugs, irritating spices, and pickling fluids.
  • genetic factors are involved in the development of ulcers.
  • the complications of peptic ulcers are hemorrhage, perforation, and obstruction of the outlet of the stomach (pyloric stenosis) by scarfing of the duodenal bulb or of the pyloric channel.
  • gastritis A diffuse inflammation of the stomach lining, gastritis, is usually an acute process caused by contaminated food, alcohol abuse, or by bacterial- or viral-induced inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract (gastroenteritis).
  • the other form of gastritis is gastric atrophy, in which the thickness of the mucosa is diminished. Diffuse gastric atrophy leads to partial loss of the glands and secreting cells throughout the stomach and may be • associated with iron-deficiency anemia.
  • Malignant tumors of the stomach are common and are probably a result of both genetic and environmental factors. Gastric cancer affects men more often than women and accounts for about 20 percent of all deaths from cancers of the gastrointestinal tract in the United States. Other malignant tumors that involve the stomach are tumors ordinarily made up of lymphoid and connective tissue. Benign tumors, especially leiomyomas, are common and may, when large, cause massive hemorrhage. Polyps of the stomach are not common except in the presence of gastric atrophy.
  • the extremely common disorder known as the irritable bowel syndrome is probably due to a disturbance of the motility of the whole intestinal tract.
  • the symptoms vary from watery diarrhea to constipation and the passage of stools with difficulty.
  • an excess of mucus is often observed in the stools.
  • the irritable bowel syndrome may be due to an allergy to a particular foodstuff.
  • the syndrome may develop following an infection such as bacillary dysentery, after which the small intestine remains irritable for many months.
  • a further disorder, malabsorption occurs when the small intestine is unable to transport properly broken down products of digestive materials from the lumen of the intestine into the lymphatics or mesenteric veins, where they are distributed to the rest of the body. Defects in transport occur either because the absorptive cells of the intestine lack certain enzymes, whether by birth defect or by acquired disease, or because they are hindered in their work by other disease processes that infiltrate the tissues, disturb motility, permit bacteria to overpopulate the bowel, or block the pathways over which transport normally proceeds.
  • a malabsorption disorder of unknown cause, tropical sprue is associated with partial atrophy of the mucosa of the small intestine.
  • Meckel's diverticulum is a common congenital malformation that occurs when the duct leading from the navel to the small intestine in the fetus fails to atrophy and close.
  • Another congenital problem in the small intestine is the presence of multiple diverticula, or outpouchings of mucosa and serosa.
  • a third congenital malformation is a failure of complete rotation of the small and large intestine, which is a normal step in the development of the fetus. This can result in abnormal intestinal attachments with a subsequent risk of obstruction when the intestine twists around the attachments.
  • disorders of the small intestine also include bacterial and parasitic infections.
  • Traveler's diarrhea e.g., diarrhea which is watery, accompanied by cramps, and lasts a few days
  • diarrhea generally disappears spontaneously with abstention from food accompanied by drinking of nonalcoholic fluids.
  • Species of Salmonella that cause typhoid and paratyphoid remain endemic in some contries and, together with Shigella, are occasional causes of epidemics in institutions.
  • Cholera caused by Vibrio cholerae, is endemic to Southeast Asia and periodically becomes pandemic.
  • parasitism In equatorial countries, parasitism is endemic, with Roundworms, tapeworms, amoebae, hookworms, strongyloides, threadworms, and blood flukes (schistosomiasis) being the main types of parasites.
  • Roundworms, or Ascariasis lumbricoides interfere with the absorption of fat and protein in the intestine, which causes diarrhea.
  • Hookworm, or Ancylostoma duodenale infection deplete the body of nutrients, and a major effect is severe chronic iron-deficiency anemia.
  • Threadworms, or Enterobius vermicularis live mainly in the cecum and cause anal itching.
  • Common tapeworms are Taenia saginata, found in beef, and T.
  • Appendicitis is an inflammation of the vermiform appendix that may be caused by infection or partial or total obstruction. Chronic inflammations of the small intestine include tuberculosis and regional enteritis (Crohn's disease).
  • Celiac disease causes damage to the mucosa of the small intestine, though it is not clear whether it is caused by an immune reaction, or an inability to break down a toxic protein, gluten, to smaller peptide fractions.
  • Studies of the immune function of those with celiac disease suggest that at least a major part of the process is a delayed hypersensitivity reaction and that the morphological changes are correlated with the presence of circulating antibodies to gluten.
  • the mucosal reaction results in progressive atrophy, with dwarfing, if not complete disappearance, of the micro villi and villi that line the intestinal tract.
  • a disease that is analogous to achalasia of the esophagus is an idiopathic condition called aganglionic megacolon, or Hirschsprung's disease.
  • Shigella species may attack the mucous membrane of the colon and produce an intense but rather superficial hemorrhage; Salmonella species may damage the lymph follicles of the colon, but do not produce a generalized inflammation of the colon; cytomegalic virus can cause a severe colitis producing ulcerations; Lymphopathia venereum can cause a more generalized and superficial colitis; and Entamoeba histolytica lodge in the cecum and ascending colon, undermine the mucosal coat, and may create large ulcerations that bleed impressively.
  • ulcerative colitis The most common form of chronic colitis, ulcerative colitis, is idiopathic. It varies from a mild inflammation of the mucosa of the rectum, giving rise to excessive mucus and some spotting of blood in the stools, to a severe, sudden, intense illness, with destruction of a large part of the colonic mucosa, considerable blood loss, toxemia and, less commonly, perforation.
  • the most common variety affects only the rectum and sigmoid colon and is characterized by diarrhea and the passage of mucus. Apart from the greater tendency for fistulas to form and for the wall of the intestine to thicken until the channel is obstructed, Crohn's disease is distinguishable from ulcerative colitis by microscopic findings.
  • Crohn's disease the maximum damage occurs beneath the mucosa, and lymphoid conglomerations, known as granulomata, are formed in the submucosa. Crohn's disease attacks the perianal tissues more often than does ulcerative colitis. Although these two diseases are not common, they are disabling.
  • Tumors of the colon are usually polyps or cancers.
  • a peculiar form of polyp is the villous adenoma, often a slowly growing, fernlike structure that spreads along the surface of the colon for some distance.
  • cancer of the colon is a more common tumor than is cancer of the stomach, and it occurs about equally in both sexes. Cancers compress the colonic lumen to produce obstruction, they attach to neighbouring structures to produce pain, and they perforate to give rise to peritonitis. Cancers also may metastasize to distant organs before local symptoms appear.
  • Anorectal disorders related to defecation are more common in the Western world than elsewhere. These disorders usually take the form of fissures (cuts or cracks in the skin or mucous membrane) at the junction of the anal mucous membrane with the skin between the thighs. Anal fistulas sometimes occur as complications of serious bowel disease, as in tuberculosis or Crohn's disease of the bowel, or in certain parasitic diseases.
  • a more general disorder is the enlargement of veins of the rectum and anus to form external or internal hemorrhoids. Hemorrhoids protrude, are associated with anal itching and pain, and bleed, especially when they come in contact with hard stools.
  • liver diseases can affect one of the three functional components of the liver: the hepatocyte (liver cell) itself, the bile secretory (cholangiolar) apparatus, or the blood vascular system.
  • Most acute liver diseases are self-limited, and liver functioning returns to normal once the causes are removed or eliminated. In some cases, however, the acute disease process destroys massive areas of liver tissue in a short time, leading to extensive death (necrosis) of hepatic cells and often to death of the patient. Hepatitis may result from viral infections or toxic damage from drugs or poisons.
  • hepatocellular damage is severe enough to destroy entire acini (clusters of lobules), they are often replaced with fibrous scar tissue. Bile canaliculi and hepatocytes regenerate in an irregular fashion adjacent to the scar tissue and result in a chronic condition called cirrhosis of the liver. Where inflammatory activity continues after the onset of cirrhosis, the disorderly regeneration of hepatocytes and cholangioles may lead to the development of hepatocellular or cholangiolar cancer.
  • hepatitis virus A HAV
  • HBV hepatitis virus B
  • NANB hepatitis virus non-A, non-B
  • Hepatitis B virus is present throughout the world in asymptomatic human carriers who may or may not have ongoing liver disease and formerly, the disease was widely spread by the transfusion of whole blood or blood products.
  • the hepatitis NANB virus has not been isolated, and currently is the major cause of posttransfusion hepatitis.
  • the symptoms characteristic of the acute hepatitis caused by the HAV, HBV, and NANB viruses are essentially indistinguishable from one another.
  • Acute hepatitis also may be caused by the overconsumption of alcohol or other poisons, such as commercial solvents (e.g., carbon tetrachloride), acetaminophen, and certain fungi.
  • alcohol or other poisons such as commercial solvents (e.g., carbon tetrachloride), acetaminophen, and certain fungi.
  • Such agents are believed to cause hepatitis when the formation of their toxic intermediate metabolites in the liver cell (phase I reactions) is beyond the capacity of the hepatocyte to conjugate, or join them with another substance for detoxification (phase II reactions) and excretion. As long as the levels of these agents are small enough to permit complete phase I and phase II reactions, there is no damage to the liver cell.
  • Acute canalicular (cholestatic) hepatitis is most commonly caused by certain drugs, such as chlorpromazine, that lead to idiosyncratic reactions or, at times, by hepatitis viruses.
  • Acute congestive liver disease usually results from the sudden . engorgement of the liver by fluids after congestive heart failure.
  • Chronic active hepatitis the result of unresolved acute injury, is associated with ongoing liver damage.
  • a milder form of chronic disease called persistent hepatitis, does not appear to lead to progressive liver damage despite evidence of a continuing mild inflammation.
  • These conditions may result from viral hepatitis, drug- induced hepatitis, autoimmune liver diseases (lupoid hepatitis), or congenital abnormalities.
  • a prominent autoimmune liver disease is Wilson's disease, which is caused by abnormal deposits of large amounts of copper in the liver.
  • Granulomatous hepatitis a condition in which localized areas of inflammation (granulomas) appear in any portion of the liver lobule, is a type of inflammatory disorder associated with many systemic diseases, including tuberculosis, sarcoidosis, schistosomiasis, and certain drug reactions. Granulomatous hepatitis rarely leads to serious interference with hepatic function, although it is often chronic.
  • liver injury The end result of many forms of chronic liver injury is cirrhosis, or scarring of liver tissue in reponse to previous acinar necrosis and irregular regeneration of liver nodules and bile ducts.
  • congenital disorders producing cirrhosis are Wilson's disease, hemochromatosis (over-deposition of iron pigment), cystic fibrosis, biliary atresia (congenital absence of a part of the bile ducts), and alpha 1-antitrypsin deficiency, or the congenital absence of a proteolytic enzyme inhibitor that results in the accumulation of abnormal forms of carbohydrate in hepatocytes.
  • cirrhosis of the liver most commonly results from chronic heavy intake of alcohol, while chronic viral hepatitis is probably the leading cause of cirrhosis in underdeveloped countries.
  • Primary biliary cirrhosis a widespread, though uncommon, autoimmune inflammatory disease of bile ducts, is a disorder primarily affecting middle-aged and older women.
  • Secondary biliary cirrhosis results from chronic obstruction or recurrent infection in the extrahepatic bile ducts caused by strictures, . gallstones, or tumors. Infestation of the biliary tract with a liver fluke, Clonorchis sinensis, is a cause of secondary biliary cirrhosis in Asia.
  • Hepatic encephalopathy refers to the changes in the brain that occur in patients with advanced acute or chronic liver disease. If liver cells are damaged, certain substances that are normally cleansed from the blood by the healthy liver are not removed. In the case of cirrhosis, blood from the portal system is not exposed to functioning hepatocytes because it is transported through blood vessels in the liver that do not run through regenerating nodules of hepatocytes, owing to the atypical growth inherent in the cirrhotic process. These products of cell metabolism are primarily .
  • Portal hypertension the increased pressure in the portal vein and its tributaries that is the result of impediments to venous flow into the liver, is brought about by the scarring characteristic of the cirrhotic process.
  • the increased pressure causes feeders of the portal vein to distend markedly, producing varices, or dilations of the veins.
  • varices When varices are located in superficial tissues, they may rupture and bleed profusely. Two such locations are the lower esophagus and the perianal region.
  • the accumulation of fluid in the abdominal cavity, or ascites, is related to portal hypertension, significant reduction in serum albumin, and renal retention of sodium.
  • liver abscesses result from the spread of infection from the biliary tract or from other parts of the body, especially the appendix and the pelvic organs. Specific liver abscesses also result from infections with the intestinal parasite Entamoeba histolytica.
  • stcholecystectomy syndrome comprises painful attacks, often resembling preoperative symptoms, that occasionally occur following the surgical removal of gallstones and the gallbladder. These attacks may be related to intermittent muscular spasms of the sphincter of Oddi or of the bile ducts.
  • Cancer of the biliary tract is rare but may occur in almost any area, including the gallbladder, the hepatic ducts, the common bile duct, or the ampulla of Vater.
  • congenital cysts and parasitic infections such as liver flukes, seem to lead to increased risks.
  • Persons with extensive chronic ulcerative colitis also show a greater than normal incidence of bile duct carcinoma.
  • Jaundice or yellowing of the skin, scleras, and mucous membranes, occurs whenever the level of bilirubin in the blood is significantly above normal. This condition is evident in three different types of disorders including, unconjugated, or hemolytic, jaundice; hepatocellular jaundice; and cholestatic, or obstructive jaundice. Unconjugated jaundice results when the amount of bilirubin produced from hemoglobin by the destruction of red blood cells or muscle tissue (myoglobin) overwhelms the normal capacity of the liver to transport it or when the ability of the liver to conjugate normal amounts of bilirubin into bilirubin diglucuronide is significantly reduced by inadequate intracellular transport or enzyme systems.
  • Hepatocellular jaundice arises when liver cells are damaged so severely that their ability to transport bilirubin diglucuronide into the biliary system is reduced, allowing some of this yellow pigment to regurgitate into the bloodstream.
  • Cholestatic jaundice occurs when essentially normal liver cells are unable to transport bilirubin either through the hepatocytic-bile capillary membrane, because of damage in that area, or through the biliary tract, because of anatomical obstructions (e.g., atresias, gallstones, cancer).
  • pancreatitis Inflammation of the pancreas, or pancreatitis, is probably the most common disease of this organ. The disorder may be confined to either singular or repeated acute episodes, or it may become a chronic disease. There are many factors associated with the onset of pancreatitis, including direct injury, certain drugs, viral infections, heredity, hyperlipidemia (increased levels of blood fats), and congenital derangements of the ductal system. Localized, severe abdominal and midback pain resulting from enzyme leakage, tissue damage, and nerve irritation is the most common symptom of acute pancreatitis.

  • RNA Poly A+ or- total RNA is reverse transcribed with Superscript- II (Gibco/BRL) and an antisense or complementary primer specific to the cDNA sequence.
  • the primer is removed from the reaction with a Microcon Concentrator (Amicon).
  • the first-strand cDNA is then tailed with dATP and terminal deoxynucleotide transferase (Gibco/BRL).
  • an anchor sequence is produced which is needed for PCR amplification.
  • the second strand is synthesized from the dA-tail in PCR buffer, Taq DNA polymerase (Perkin-Elmer Cetus), an oligo-dT primer containing three adjacent restriction sites (Xhol, Sail and C ) at the 5' end and a primer containing just these restriction sites.
  • This double-stranded cDNA is PCR amplified for 40 cycles with the same primers as well as a nested cDNA-specific antisense primer.
  • the PCR products are size-separated on an ethidium bromide- agarose gel and the region of gel containing cDNA products the predicted size of missing protein-coding DNA is removed.
  • cDNA is purified from the agarose with the - Magic PCR Prep kit (Promega), restriction digested with Xhol or Sail, and ligated to a plasmid such as pBluescript SKII (Stratagene) at Xhol and EcoRV sites.
  • This DNA is transformed into bacteria and. the plasmid clones sequenced to identify the correct protein-coding inserts. Correct 5' ends are confirmed by comparing this sequence with the putatively identified homologue and overlap with the partial cDNA clone. Similar methods known in the art and/or commercial kits are used to amplify and recover 3' ends.
  • kits are commercially available for purchase. Similar reagents and methods to those above are supplied in kit form from Gibco/BRL for both 5' and 3' RACE for recovery of full length genes. A second kit is available from Clontech which is a modification of a related technique, SLIC (single-stranded ligation to single-stranded cDNA), developed by Dumas et al., Nucleic Acids Res., 19:5227-32, (1991). . The major differences in procedure are that the RNA is alkaline hydrolyzed after reverse transcription and RNA ligase is used to join a restriction site-containing anchor primer to the first-strand cDNA. This obviates the necessity for the dA-tailing reaction which results in a polyT stretch that is difficult to sequence past.
  • SLIC single-stranded ligation to single-stranded cDNA
  • An alternative to generating 5' or 3' cDNA from RNA is to use cDNA library double-stranded DNA.
  • An asymmetric PCR-amplified antisense cDNA strand is synthesized with an antisense cDNA-specific primer -and a plasmid-anchored primer. These primers are removed and a symmetric PCR reaction is performed with a nested cDNA-specific antisense primer and the plasmid-anchored primer.
  • RNA oligonucleotide is ligated to the 5' ends of a population of RNA presumably containing full-length gene RNA transcript.
  • a primer set containing a primer specific to the ligated RNA oligonucleotide and a primer specific to a known sequence of the gene of interest is used to PCR amplify the 5' portion of the desired full length gene which may then be sequenced and used to generate the full length gene.
  • This method starts with total RNA isolated from the desired source, poly A RNA may be used but is not a prerequisite for this procedure.
  • RNA preparation may then be treated with phosphatase if necessary to eliminate 5' phosphate groups on degraded or damaged RNA which may interfere with the later RNA ligase step.
  • the phosphatase if used, is then inactivated and the RNA is treated with tobacco acid pyrophosphatase in order to remove the cap structure present at the 5' ends of messenger RNAs.
  • This reaction leaves a 5' phosphate group at the 5' end of the cap cleaved RNA which can then be ligated to an RNA oligonucleotide using T4 RNA ligase.
  • This modified RNA preparation can then be used as a template for first strand cDNA synthesis using a gene specific oligonucleotide.
  • the first strand synthesis reaction can then be used as a template for PCR amplification of the desired 5' end using a primer specific to the ligated RNA oligonucleotide and a primer specific to the known. sequence of the digestive system antigen of interest. The resultant product is then sequenced and analyzed to confirm that the 5' end sequence belongs to the relevant digestive system antigen.

  • nucleic acid molecules that are not degenerate variants, a reasonable number will also encode a polypeptide having functional activity. This is because the skilled artisan is fully aware of amino acid substitutions that are either less likely or not likely to significantly effect protein function (e.g., replacing one aliphatic amino acid with a second aliphatic amino acid), as further described below.
  • the first strategy exploits the tolerance of amino acid substitutions by natural selection during the process of evolution. By comparing amino acid sequences in different species, conserved amino acids can be identified. These conserved amino acids are likely important for protem function. In contrast, the amino acid positions where substitutions have been tolerated by natural selection indicates that these positions are not critical for protein function. Thus, positions tolerating amino acid substitution could be modified while still maintaining biological activity of the protem.
  • the second strategy uses genetic engineering to introduce amino acid changes at specific positions of a cloned gene to identify regions critical for protein function. For example, site directed mutagenesis or alanine-scanning mutagenesis (introduction of single alanine mutations at every residue in the molecule) can be used. See Cunningham et al., Science 244:1081-1085 (1989). The resulting mutant molecules can then be tested for biological activity.
