Zinc inhibits lethal inflammatory shock by preventing microbe‐induced interferon signature in intestinal epithelium

Abstract The cytokine TNF drives inflammatory diseases, e.g., Crohn's disease. In a mouse model of TNF‐induced systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS), severe impact on intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) is observed. Zinc confers complete protection in this model. We found that zinc no l...
