  • Norovirus is the commonest cause of outbreaks of infectious intestinal disease (IID) with around 50% of all IID outbreaks attributed to this pathogen [ Reference Patel 1 , Reference Yen 2 ]. (cambridge.org)
  • Dnmt3a ΔIEC mice suffer from increased susceptibility to experimental colitis, characterized by reduced epithelial regeneration. (nature.com)
  • We demonstrated that while intestinal epithelial cell (IEC) proliferation and death are unaltered in mice with ubiquitous suppression of NF-κB activity, goblet cell numbers increase at the expense of Paneth cells. (hu-berlin.de)
  • Ultrastructural analysis revealed that overexpression of CD97 strengthened lateral cell-cell contacts between enterocytes, which, in contrast, were weakened in CD97 knockout (Ko) mice. (nih.gov)
  • In this study, we investigated the role and mechanism of action of TBHQ on 5-fluorouracil-induced (5-FU-induced) human intestinal epithelial cell (HIEC) injury and intestinal mucositis in mice. (biomedcentral.com)
