A single-cell transcriptional landscape of immune cells shows disease-specific changes of T cell and macrophage populations in human achalasia
4 Aug 2023
Abstract excerpt
Abstract Achalasia is a rare motility disorder of the esophagus caused by the gradual degeneration of myenteric neurons. Immune-mediated ganglionitis has been proposed to underlie the loss of myenteric neurons. Here, we measure the immune cell transcriptional profile of paired lower esophageal sphincter (LES) tissue and blood samples in achalasia and controls using single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq). In...
