Abstract excerpt
Dysregulated phosphatidylinositol (PI) signaling has been implicated in human gastrointestinal (GI) malignancies and inflammatory states, underlining the need to study pathophysiological roles of PI in an in vivo genetic model. Here, we study the significance of PI in GI pathophysiology using the zebrafish mutant cdipt(hi559), which lacks PI synthesis, and unravel a crucial role of PI in intestinal mucosal...
