Healthy intestinal mucosa: a control reference for inflammatory bowel disease
The human gut is a complex barrier organ that supports essential physiological processes, including digestion, water and nutrient absorption, as well as waster elimination. Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a group of prevalent chronic disorders that disrupt the normal structures and functions of the gut. Without effective management, IBD greatly compromises a patient's quality of life. Studies addressing the current challenges in understanding IBD are therefore critical to improve the clinical management. Healthy intestinal mucosa collected during routine endoscopic screening, can serve as a valuable control to support disease-focused studies.
