Smad7 Interrupts TGF-β Signaling in Intestinal Macrophages and Promotes Inflammatory Activation of these Cells during Necrotizing Enterocolitis

BACKGROUND: Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is an inflammatory bowel necrosis of premature infants. Based on our recent findings of increased Smad7 expression in surgically-resected bowel affected by NEC, we hypothesized that NEC macrophages undergo inflammatory activation because increased Smad7 ex...
