“…These insults result in the production of inflammatory cytokinesparticularly Upd3by intestinal epithelial cells that drive epithelial regeneration by increasing ISC proliferation (Buchon et al, 2009a,b;Cronin et al, 2009;Jiang et al, 2009;Osman et al, 2012;Zhou et al, 2013). Recent work has identified a 4 kb enhancer that induces upd3 expression in EBs/ECs during bacterial infection or chemical injury (Houtz et al, 2017;Jiang et al, 2011;Zhou et al, 2013). During regeneration, this enhancer is upregulated by Yorkie (Yki)/Scalloped (Sd) and AP-1 (D-Jun and D-Fos) transcriptional complexes in response to several stress signals, including Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), p38, Hippo (Hpo)/Warts (Wts) and Misshapen (Msn)/Wts (Houtz et al, 2017;Jiang et al, 2011;Karpowicz et al, 2010;Li et al, 2014;Ren et al, 2010;Shaw et al, 2010;Staley and Irvine, 2010).…”
