Background & Aims: Expression of mucin MUC2, the structural component of the colonic mucus layer, is lowered in inflammatory bowel disease. Our aim was to obtain insight in the role of Muc2 in epithelial protection. Methods: Muc2 knockout (Muc2−/−) and Muc2 heterozygous (Muc2+/−) mice were characterized and challenged by a colitis-inducing agent, dextran sulfate sodium (DSS). We monitored clinical...
