A Leaky Human Colon Model Reveals Uncoupled Apical/Basal Cytotoxicity in Early Clostridioides difficile Toxin Exposure

M. T. Ok, J. Liu, R. J. Bliton, C. M. Hinesley, E. E. T. San Pedro, K. A. Breau, I. Gomez-Martinez, J. Burclaff, S. T. Magness

This study develops a human colon model to assess how C. difficile toxins affect epithelial cells from different sides, finding that basal exposure causes more severe toxicity.

Transcriptomics informs design of a planar human enterocyte culture system that reveals metformin enhances fatty acid export

I. Gomez-Martinez, R. J. Bliton, K. A. Breau, M. J. Czerwinski, I. A. Williamson, J. Wen, J. F. Rawls, S. T. Magness

The paper develops a human enterocyte culture system to study lipid handling and finds metformin enhances fatty acid export by promoting fatty acid oxidation.
