Evidence for modulation of pericryptal sheath myofibroblasts in rat descending colon by Transforming Growth Factor β and Angiotensin II.

BACKGROUND: Absorption of water and Na(+) in descending colonic crypts is dependent on the barrier function of the surrounding myofibroblastic pericryptal sheath.
