Transcription factor TFEB cell-autonomously modulates susceptibility to intestinal epithelial cell injury in vivo

Abstract excerpt

Abstract Understanding the transcription factors that modulate epithelial resistance to injury is necessary for understanding intestinal homeostasis and injury repair processes. Recently, transcription factor EB (TFEB) was implicated in expression of autophagy and host defense genes in nematodes and mammalian cells. However, the in vivo roles of TFEB in the mammalian intestinal epithelium were not known. Here, we...
