Funded Activity Summary

Diseases, infections and pathologies are common clinical problems of the intestine in humans that can lead to loss of intestinal tissue. Individuals with these conditions can experience nutritional problems and severe cases result in death. Promoting regeneration of the damaged tissue is critical to re-establish intestinal function. In this study, we will examine the regenerative potential of a growth factor called Neuregulin1 in the intestine with the aim of facilitating tissue regeneration.
