This study identifies a mechano-adaptive response in the colonic epithelium to mechanical stress, showing that myosin II and calcium influx coordinate junctional reinforcement to preserve barrier integrity.

This study identifies the PPARD/PDK4/ANGPTL4 pathway as a mechanism by which obesity induces phenotypic switching of gastric smooth muscle cells, leading to dysmotility.

This study shows that latent Toxoplasma gondii infection reduces visceral nociception in mice via peripheral opioid receptor signaling, suggesting a potential negative link with abdominal pain in humans.
