Schlafen 11 Is a Novel Target for Mucosal Regeneration in Ulcerative Colitis

摘要

Background and Aims: Ulcerative colitis [UC] is a chronic inflammatory disease of the colon with an intractable course. Although the goal of UC therapy is to achieve mucosal healing, the pathogenesis of mucosal injury caused by chronic inflammation remains unknown. We therefore aim to elucidate molecular mechanisms of mucosal injury by establishing in vitro and in vivo humanised UC-mimicking models.
