Impaired mucosal defense to acute colonic injury in mice lacking cyclooxygenase-1 or cyclooxygenase-2

TL;DR: COX-1 and COX-2 share a crucial role in the defense of the intestinal mucosa (with inducible COX -2 being perhaps more active during inflammation) and that neither isoform is essential in maintaining mucosal homeostasis in the absence of injurious stimuli.
Journal ArticleDOI

Helicobacter hepaticus does not induce or potentiate colitis in interleukin-10-deficient mice.

TL;DR: It was found that IL-10−/− mice monoassociated with H. hepaticus for up to 16 weeks showed almost no histologic colitis or increased IL-12 production, and therefore is not required to induce colitis in genetically susceptible hosts.
Journal ArticleDOI

Intestinal inflammation reduces expression of DRA, a transporter responsible for congenital chloride diarrhea

TL;DR: The loss of transport function in the surface epithelium of the colon by attenuation of transporter gene expression, perhaps inhibited at the level of gene transcription by proinflammatory cytokines, may play a role in the pathogenesis of diarrhea in colitis.
