摘要

The maturation of the intestine into the adult form involves the formation of adult stem cells in a thyroid hormone (T-3)-dependent process in vertebrates. In mammals, this takes place during postembryonic development, a period around birth when the T-3 level peaks. Due to the difficulty of manipulating late-stage, uterus-enclosed embryos, very little is known about the development of the adult intestinal stem cells. Interestingly, the remodeling of the intestine during the T-3-dependent amphibian metamorphosis mimics the maturation of mammalian intestine. Our earlier microarray studies in Xenopus laevis revealed that the transcription factor SRY (sex-determining region Y)-box 3 (Sox3), well known for its involvement in neural development, was upregulated in the intestinal epithelium during metamorphosis. Here, we show that Sox3 is highly and specifically expressed in the developing adult intestinal progenitor/stem cells. We further show that its induction by T-3 is independent of new protein synthesis, suggesting that Sox3 is directly activated by liganded T-3 receptor. Thus, T-3 activates Sox3 as one of the earliest changes in the epithelium, and Sox3 in turn may facilitate the dedifferentiation of the larval epithelial cells into adult stem cells.
