Establishment of an In Vitro DSS-Induced Epithelial Injury Model to Investigate Dose-Dependent Effects of IL-6 and Butyrate on Barrier Function
Dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) is widely used in vivo to induce epithelial injury; however, the epithelial-specific responses to DSS and mechanisms associated with barrier restoration remain incompletely understood. Here, we establish an in vitro DSS-induced epithelial damage model using differentiated Caco-2 cell monola...
