| Through hepatectomy and transcriptomic and proteomic profiling, scientists identified pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF), a liver-derived soluble Wnt inhibitor, which restrained intestinal stem cell hyperproliferation to maintain gut homeostasis by suppressing the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

| Scientists demonstrated that oxaliplatin induced RB1 phosphorylation, which was associated with the resistance to neoadjuvant oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy in locally advanced rectal cancer. [Proceedings Of The National Academy Of Sciences Of The United States Of America] |

| Investigators explored the causal relationship between oxidative stress, somatic mutations in pre-tumor-initiated normal tissues, and tumor incidence in the small intestines of MUTYH-proficient and MUTYH-deficient mice. [Genome Research] |

|
| The authors elucidated the process by which L. paracasei VL8 and its synbiotc combination with mannan-oligosaccharide repair the intestinal barrier function in dextran sodium sulfate-induced colitis mice. [Journal Of Agricultural And Food Chemistry] |

| Researchers compared the impact of two different types of diets, a crude diet and an AIN-93G-formula purified diet, on epithelial integrity and the gut microbiota. [International Immunology] |

|
| Investigators characterized the profile of prostanoids and their synthesis enzyme expression in a murine model of postoperative ileus (POI) and to determine whether the altered prostanoids could contribute to POI. [Journal Of Surgical Research] |

| The authors provide a critical overview on the state-of-the-art on existing 3D models of intestinal inflammation and discusses the remaining challenges, providing insights on possible pathways towards achieving IBD mimetic models. [Biochimica Et Biophysica Acta-Molecular Basis Of Disease] |

| Given the critical role of the intestinal mucosal system in health and disease, the protective effects of dietary polysaccharides may be potentially valuable for the prevention and treatment of gut-related diseases. [Food & Function] |

| The Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai has been awarded a grant of more than $4 million from The Leona M. and Harry B. Helmsley Charitable Trust to support an innovative research project aimed at understanding the early stages of Crohn’s disease before noticeable symptoms develop. [Mount Sinai] |
