Examples of TNBS in a sentence
Also, in several models of IBD, e.g., DSS- and TNBS- induced colitis in rats and mice, immune infiltration was clearly associated with an upregulation of MMPs and the mucosal damage could be reversed by application of specific MMP inhibitors.15-17 However, in fibrotic and stenotic areas, the increased synthesis of collagens by mesenchymal cells may actually lead to a thickening of the bowel wall probably because of dysregulated MMP matrix degradative capacity.
It was shown that in a TNBS colitis model the motilin receptor expression in smooth muscle was decreased and that there was less contractility in response to motilin administration [20,21].
