Engineered extracellular vesicles reprogram T cells by targeting PD-1 and PHB1 signaling in inflammatory bowel disease [PDF]
Current therapies for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) often fail to achieve complete remission and are associated with systemic toxicity owing to their broad immunosuppressive effects.

A High-Throughput Organoid Microinjection Platform to Study Gastrointestinal Microbiota and Luminal PhysiologySummary [PDF]
Background & Aims: The human gut microbiota is becoming increasingly recognized as a key factor in homeostasis and disease. The lack of physiologically relevant in vitro models to investigate host–microbe interactions is considered a substantial ...

Measurement of Real-Time Serotonin Dynamics from Human-Derived Gut Organoids. [PDF]
The importance of the gut in regulating the brain-body immune axis is becoming increasingly evident. Interestingly, the brain and gut share many common signaling molecules, with serotonin being one of the most notable.

Pathogenesis of adherent-invasive <i>Escherichia coli</i> LF82 in human colonic epithelium is characterized by adhesive biofilms, mucus penetration, and contact-dependent cytotoxicity. [PDF]
Adherent-invasive Escherichia coli (AIEC) associated with Crohn’s disease (CD) are traditionally defined by adherence and invasion of epithelial cells and survival in macrophages.

High-fat diet enhances cell proliferation and compromises intestinal permeability in a translational canine intestinal organoid model [PDF]
Background Emerging evidence underscores the responsiveness of the mammalian intestine to dietary cues, notably through the involvement of LGR5 + intestinal stem cells in orchestrating responses to diet-driven signals.

Capture and 3D culture of colonic crypts and colonoids in a microarray platform [PDF]
Crypts are the basic structural and functional units of colonic epithelium and can be isolated from the colon and cultured in vitro into multi-cell spheroids termed “colonoids”.
