Article Synopsis
- IBD (Inflammatory Bowel Disease) is increasingly common in industrialized nations and can lead to serious complications like fibrosis and cancer.
- This study measures tissue stiffness and fibrosis in IBD patients, comparing affected human tissues to unaffected tissues from mice, pigs, and cows, revealing significant differences in stiffness.
- Findings suggest that increased stiffness and collagen expression in inflamed tissue could predict fibrosis and help tailor treatment strategies for IBD patients.
