Keratin 7 protein presence in stool is indicative of active pediatric-onset inflammatory bowel disease

2026-04-22

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is associated with early structural changes in intestinal epithelial cells; however, the associated molecular alterations remain incompletely understood. The cytoskeletal protein keratin (K) 7 was recently found to be focally expressed in the colonic epithelium in IBD, while absent in the healthy colon. Here, we investigated the applicability of K7 as a noninva...
