In this task, you are given a passage which has a question and the context. You have to generate an answer to the question based on the information present in the context.

[EX Q]: Context: Na-K-Cl cotransporter 1 (NKCC1) and K-Cl cotransporter 2 (KCC2) have fundamental roles in neuron differentiation that are integrated with gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and glutamate receptors, GABA synthesized by GAD25/65/67 encoded by GAD1/GAD2 genes, and GABA transporters (GATs). Cells in the eye lens express at least 13 GABA receptor subunits, α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA) and N-methyl D-aspartate (NMDA) glutamate receptors, GAD1/GAD2, GAT1-4 and vGAT, and NKCC1. NKCC1:KCC2 ratios determine the switch in GABA actions from trophic/growth promoting early in development to their classic inhibitory roles in adult neurons. Lens epithelial cells cover the anterior surface and differentiate to elongated fiber cells in the lens interior with comparable morphology and sub-cellular structures as neurons. NKCC1 is expressed before KCC2 in neuron development and increases cell chloride, which stimulates differentiation and process formation. Subsequently, KCC2 increases and extrudes cell chloride linked with maturation. KCC2 has an additional structural moonlighting role interacting with F-actin scaffolding in dendritic spine morphogenesis. We examined KCC2 versus NKCC1 spatial expression in relation to fiber cell developmental status within the lens.', 'Immunofluorescence and immunoblots were used to detect expression in mouse and rabbit lenses.', 'NKCC1 was restricted to peripheral elongating lens fiber cells in young adult mouse and rabbit lenses. Lens KCC2 expression included the major KCC2b neuronal isoform and was detected in interior fiber cells with decreased NKCC1 expression and localized at the membranes. Lens expression of RE-1 silencing transcription factor (REST) regulated KCC2 is consistent with GAD1 and GAD2, several GABA and glutamate receptor subunits, miR-124, and other REST-regulated genes expressed in lenses.\Question: Does kCC2 expression supersede NKCC1 in mature fiber cells in mouse and rabbit lenses?
[EX A]: NKCC1 in peripheral elongating fiber cells is superseded by KCC2 expression in interior mature fiber cells that also express >20 additional integral GABA biology genes, AMPA/NMDA glutamate receptors, and an array of accessory proteins that together underlie morphogenesis in neurons. The present findings provide further evidence that this fundamental neuronal regulation is extensively conserved in lens and identify additional parallels in the morphogenetic programs that underlie lens fiber cell and neuronal differentiation and contribute to the development of visual acuity.

[EX Q]: Context: Nestin is a type VI intermediate filament protein known as a marker for progenitor cells that can be mostly found in tissues during the embryonic and fetal periods. In our study, we aimed to determine the expression of nestin in meninges covering the brain tissue at different developmental stages and in the new born.', 'In this study 10 human fetuses in different development stages between developmental weeks 9-34 and a newborn brain tissue were used. Fetuses in paraffin section were stained with H+E and nestin immunohistochemical staining protocol was performed.', 'In this study, in the human meninges intense nestin expression was detected as early as in the 9th week of development. Intensity of this expression gradually decreased in later stages of development and nestin expression still persisted in a small population of newborn meningeal cells.\Question: Is intermediate filament protein nestin expressed in developing meninges?
[EX A]: In the present study, nestin positive cells gradually diminished in the developing and maturing meninges during the fetal period. This probably depends on initiation of a decrease in nestin expression and replacement with other tissue-specific intermediate filaments while the differentiation process continues. These differences can make significant contributions to the investigation and diagnosis of various pathological disorders (Tab. 1, Fig. 3, Ref. 36).

[EX Q]: Context: Both in experimental colitis and in inflammatory bowel disease, colonic eicosanoid generation is enhanced and may contribute to the pathogenesis of the inflammatory response.', 'To evaluate the effect of selective cyclo-oxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitors on the extent and severity of two models of experimental colitis.', 'Colitis was induced by intra-caecal administration of 2 ml 5% acetic acid or intra-colonic administration of 0.1 ml 3% iodoacetamide. Rats were treated intra-gastrically with nimesulide 2 x 10 mg/kg/day, or once with SC-236 6 mg/kg, and killed 1 or 3 days after damage induction. The colon was isolated, weighed, macroscopic damage was measured, and mucosal samples were obtained for histology and for determination of myeloperoxidase (MPO) and nitric oxide synthase (NOS) activities and eicosanoid generation. The serum levels of thromboxane B2 (TXB2), tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) were determined.', 'Nimesulide significantly decreased the extent of colitis induced by acetic acid. Both nimesulide and SC-236 significantly decreased the extent of iodoacetamide-induced colonic damage. The decrease in the extent of colitis induced by nimesulide was accompanied by a significant decrease in mucosal MPO and NOS activities. Nimesulide and SC-236 decreased the enhanced colonic eicosanoid generation in acetic acid and iodoacetamide-induced colitis, and, in iodoacetamide-treated rats, nimesulide also decreased the elevated serum TNF-alpha and IL-1beta levels.\Question: Do cyclo-oxygenase-2 inhibitors ameliorate the severity of experimental colitis in rats?
[EX A]:
The effective nimesulide and SC-236-induced amelioration of the severity of the colitis in acetic acid and iodoacetamide-treated rats confirms the role of eicosanoids in their pathogenesis and suggests that COX-2 inhibitors may be of value in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease.
