Protective Effects of ALDH1A Enzyme Inhibition on <i>Helicobacter</i>-Induced Colitis in Smad3<sup>−/−</sup> Mice are Associated with Altered α4ß7 Integrin Expression on Activated T Cells

Protective Effects of ALDH1A Enzyme Inhibition on <i>Helicobacter</i>-Induced Colitis in Smad3<sup>−/−</sup> Mice are Associated with Altered α4ß7 Integrin Expression on Activated T Cells

Many inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients require surgical intervention due to limited pharmacological treatment options. Antibodies targeting α4ß7, a gut-homing integrin, are one of the most promising IBD treatments. As retinoic acid (RA) regulates expression of gut-homing proteins including α...
