A Serological Biomarker of Laminin Gamma 1 Chain Degradation Reflects Altered Basement Membrane Remodeling in Crohn’s Disease and DSS Colitis

Published: Sep 24, 2021
Abstract
BackgroundThe laminin gamma 1 chain (LMγ1) is abundant along the crypt-villus axis in the intestinal basement membrane.AimsWe investigated whether a serological biomarker of laminin degradation was associated with disease activity in patients with Crohn’s disease (CD) and in rats with dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis.MethodsSerum samples from CD patients (n = 43), healthy subjects (n = 19), and Sprague Dawley rats receiving 5–6% DSS...
