Overexpression of the Apical Sodium-Dependent Bile Acid Transporter to Replicate Necrotizing Enterocolitis in IEC-6 Cells
This study tested a method of overexpressing the apical sodium-dependent bile acid transporter (ASBT) in IEC-6 cells to replicate necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), a gastrointestinal disease prevalent in premature infants. The expression vector pcDNA4/TO was altered to pDR1019, containing the Rattus...
