Li C, Grider J, Murthy K, Bohl J, Rivet E, Wieghard N, et al.
Inflamm Bowel Dis . 2020 Feb; 26(6):809-819. PMID: 32031621
Background: Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is an essential response of epithelial and immune cells to inflammation in Crohn's disease. The presence and mechanisms that might regulate the ER stress response...

Crowe M, Wang H, Blakeney B, Mahavadi S, Singh K, Murthy K, et al.
Neurogastroenterol Motil . 2019 Nov; 32(2):e13737. PMID: 31721379
Background: l-amino acids, such as monosodium glutamate (MSG), activate the umami receptor T1R1/T1R3. We previously showed increased peristalsis in response to activation of T1R1/T1R3 by MSG in mouse colon. However,...

Wang H, Murthy K, Grider J
Cell Tissue Res . 2019 Aug; 378(3):471-483. PMID: 31410629
Regulation of gut function depends on the detection and response to luminal contents. Luminal L-amino acids (L-AA) are detected by several receptors including metabotropic glutamate receptors 1 and 4 (mGluR1...

Mahavadi S, Nalli A, Wang H, Kendig D, Crowe M, Lyall V, et al.
PLoS One . 2018 Dec; 13(12):e0209359. PMID: 30571746
In gastrointestinal smooth muscle, acetylcholine induced muscle contraction is biphasic, initial peak followed by sustained contraction. Contraction is regulated by phosphorylation of 20 kDa myosin light chain (MLC) at Ser19,...

Blakeney B, Crowe M, Mahavadi S, Murthy K, Grider J
Dig Dis Sci . 2018 Dec; 64(5):1171-1181. PMID: 30560338
Background: Isovaleric acid (IVA) is a 5-carbon branched-chain fatty acid present in fermented foods and produced in the colon by bacterial fermentation of leucine. We previously reported that the shorter,...

Peptides . 2018 Dec; 112:48-55. PMID: 30508636
The insulinotropic effects of the incretin hormone, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) are mediated via GLP-1 receptors (GLP-1R) present on pancreatic β cells. GLP-1 causes a decrease in the motility of stomach...

Neurogastroenterol Motil . 2018 Nov; 31(2):e13495. PMID: 30393912
Background: Actin polymerization plays an important role in smooth muscle contraction. Integrin-linked kinase (ILK) was shown to mediate actin polymerization in airway smooth muscle. The role of ILK in actin...

Pharmacol Res Perspect . 2017 Oct; 5(5). PMID: 28971603
Hydrogen sulfide (H S) plays an important role in smooth muscle relaxation. Here, we investigated the expression of enzymes in H S synthesis and the mechanism regulating colonic smooth muscle...
