Drosophila melanogaster models for investigating inflammatory bowel disease: Methods, pathology, mechanisms, and therapeutic approaches

Abstract excerpt

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a complex disorder characterized by chronic gastrointestinal inflammation. This paper examines the use of Drosophila melanogaster as a model organism to investigate interactions among the gut microbiota, intestinal stem cells (ISCs), and signaling pathways involved in IBD pathogenesis. Key findings indicate that dysbiosis of the gut microbiota significantly contributes to IBD...
