<h4>Background</h4>Mucosal barrier dysfunction is considered a critical component of Crohn's disease (CD) pathogenesis after the identification of susceptibility genes. However, the precise mechanism underlying mucosal barrier dysfunction has not yet been elucidated. We therefore aimed to elucidate the molecular mechanism underlying the expression of human α-defensin 6 (HD6) in patients with CD.<h4>Methods</h4>HD6 expression was induced by the transfection of an atonal homolog 1 (Atoh1) transgen ...[more]
