Intestine Disease
Conditions
Brief summary
The study evaluates the effect of nutrient antigens or therapeutic agents on human small intestinal organoids.
Detailed description
Small intestinal biopsies will be taken to establish human intestinal organoids in vitro. The organoids will be propagated and various antigens will be checked for their effects on proliferation, production of inflammatory components or signal cascade.
