<p>The aim of this study was to clarify the relationship between chemotherapy-induced mucositis and endogenous glucagon-like peptide-2 (GLP-2) dynamics in the small intestine following treatment with either methotrexate or 5-fluorouracil. Rats were injected intraperitoneally with a single dose of either 50 mg/kg methotrexate or 100 mg/kg 5-fluorouracil. At 24 and 72 h after drug administration, ileal tissues and plasma were used to investigate GLP-2 dynamics. Administration of methotrexate caused moderate but not significant intestinal injury within 72 h, while administration of 5-fluorouracil caused severe injury in a time-dependent manner. Methotrexate significantly increased proglucagon mRNA expression and the number of anti-GLP-2 antibody-positive cells in the ileal tissue at 24 h after administration. Methotrexate also significantly induced GLP-2 receptor, insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), and transforming growth factor-β2 (TGF-β2) mRNA expression in ileal tissue. In contrast, 5-fluorouracil significantly inhibited proglucagon, GLP-2 receptor, IGF-1, and TGF-β2 mRNA expression as well as the number of anti-GLP-2 antibody-positive cells. Methotrexate slightly increased dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-4) mRNA expression, whereas 5-fluorouracil significantly increased DPP-4 mRNA expression. These results suggest that potentiation of endogenous GLP-2 dynamics by methotrexate is associated with a mechanism that preserves gastrointestinal mucosal integrity at a moderate level.</p>
