Scientific Abstract

The function of intestinal mesenchymal cells (IMCs) in inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) has not been clarified yet. The goal of this project is to characterize and to functionally study the role of STAT3 activation in IMCs during mucosal healing in the gut by using established in vivo models and human tissue specimens. Perspectively, these studies aim to pave the way for novel therapeutic options in IBD care.
