Single-cell analysis of colonic epithelium reveals unexpected shifts in cellular composition and molecular phenotype in treatment-naïve adult Crohn’s disease
2021-01-15
Abstract excerpt
The intestinal epithelial barrier is comprised of a monolayer of specialized intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) that are critical in maintaining gut mucosal homeostasis. Dysfunction within various IEC fractions can increase intestinal permeability, resulting in a chronic and debilitating condition known as Crohn’s disease (CD). Defining the molecular changes in each IEC type in CD will contribute to an improved un...
