Dissecting Microscopic Colitis Immunopathophysiology: Insights From Basic Research
ABSTRACT Microscopic colitis is an inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) comprising two clinically undiscernible entities: collagenous colitis and lymphocytic colitis. Collagenous colitis associates with HLA genes and displays a Th1/Tc1–Th17/Tc17 profile with pericryptal myofibroblast activity, water malabsorption and secondary fluid loss due to altered ...

Molecular characterization of murine norovirus isolates from South Korea
The recently discovered murine norovirus (MNV) is an important surrogate virus for studying the human norovirus (NoV) because of its ability to replicate in conventional cell cultures using mouse macrophage cell lines. In addition, the impact of MNV is significant due to the high prevalence of MNV in commonly used laboratory animals in biomedical ...

Essential cell-autonomous role for interferon (IFN) regulatory factor 1 in IFN-γ-mediated inhibition of norovirus replication in macrophages [PDF]
Noroviruses (NVs) cause the majority of cases of epidemic nonbacterial gastroenteritis worldwide and contribute to endemic enteric disease. However, the molecular mechanisms responsible for immune control of their replication are not completely ...
