Interleukin-10 (IL-10) is a pleiotropic anti-inflammatory cytokine produced and sensed by most hematopoietic cells. Genome wide association studies and experimental animal models point at a central role of the IL-10 axis in Inflammatory Bowel Diseases. Here we investigated the importance of intestin...
ORGANISM(S): Mus musculus 
Background and Aims: We have shown in several controlled rat and human infection studies that dietary calcium improves intestinal resistance and strengthens the mucosal barrier. Reinforcement of gut barrier function is also relevant for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Therefore, we investigated th...

Differential expression was used to access gene differences after Entamoeba histolytica infection. Entamoeba histolytica is an important diarrheal pathogen worldwide, and induces apoptosis of the intestinal epithelium as part of its disease process. Regenerating (REG) 1 protein is anti-apoptotic. ...
ORGANISM(S): Homo sapiens 
Background; MUC2 mucin produced by intestinal goblet cells is the major component of the intestinal mucus barrier. MUC2 homo-oligomerizes intracellularly into large secreted polymers which give mucus its viscous properties. The inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) ulcerative colitis is characterized by...
ORGANISM(S): Mus musculus 
Background: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) acting as negative regulators of gene expression are differentially expressed in intestinal tissues of patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Assessing the functional role of miRNAs in murine models of colitis facilitates elucidating the role of specific miRN...
ORGANISM(S): Mus musculus 
Identification of bacterial antigens within cecal bacterial lysate was performed by using serum antibodies from control and DC-LMP1/CD40 animals for immunoprecipitation followed by label-free liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Serum antibodies were coupled to beads and incuba...

Lcn2 is involved in host defense against pathogens, but the function in intestinal mucosal immunity and inflammation remains largely unknown. Genetic ablation of Lcn2 results in early-onset colitis and spontaneous emergence of right-sided colonic tumors in the setting of IL-10 deficiency (Lcn2-/-;IL...
