JAK/STAT signaling promotes the emergence of unique cell states in ulcerative colitis

Abstract excerpt

The intestinal epithelium ensures uptake of vital nutrients and acts as a barrier between luminal contents and the underlying immune system. In inflammatory bowel diseases, such as ulcerative colitis (UC), this barrier is compromised, and patients experience debilitating symptoms. Here, we perform single-cell RNA profiling of epithelial cells and outline patterns of cell fate decisions in healthy individuals and...
