This paper introduces a fluorescent staining method to visualize LOX activity and fibrogenesis in tissue sections using a turn-on fluorophore, validated in mouse and human samples.

This study shows that colitis-primed T cells affect small intestinal barrier function via Nod2, microbiota, and MLCK mechanisms, with distinct roles for hematopoietic and non-hematopoietic Nod2.

This study shows WNT2B deficiency in mice increases colitis susceptibility and impairs human intestinal development, with distinct effects in small intestine and colon.

This paper identifies vorinostat as a potential repurposed therapy for Rett syndrome by combining computational network analysis with CRISPR-edited Xenopus models, showing efficacy across multiple organ systems.

The paper shows that NOD2 prevents small intestinal inflammation in areas remote from colonic injury in mice.
