Ductular and proliferative response of esophageal submucosal glands in a porcine model of esophageal injury and repair

American Journal of Physiology-Gastrointestinal and Liver Physiology, 313(3), G180–G191.

By: L. Krüger n, L. Gonzalez n , T. Pridgen n, S. McCall *, R. Furstenberg* , I. Harnden*, G. Carnighan n, A. Cox n ...

author keywords: esophagus; injury; repair; esophageal submucosal gland; proliferation
MeSH headings : Active Transport, Cell Nucleus; Animals; Cell Proliferation / physiology; Esophageal Diseases / pathology; Esophagus / cytology; Esophagus / injuries; Female; Gene Expression Regulation / physiology; Humans; Male; SOX9 Transcription Factor / genetics; SOX9 Transcription Factor / metabolism; Staining and Labeling; Swine
topics (OpenAlex): Esophageal and GI Pathology; Gastroesophageal reflux and treatments; Esophageal Cancer Research and Treatment
TL;DR: A novel porcine model of injury and repair using radiofrequency ablation has been developed, allowing for reproducible injury to the esophagus to study repair in an animal model with esophageal submucosal glands, a key anatomical feature and missing in rodent models but possibly harboring progenitor cells.
