Increased Numbers of Enteric Glial Cells in the Peyer’s Patches and Enhanced Intestinal Permeability by Glial Cell Mediators in Patients with Ileal Crohn’s Disease

Enteric glial cells (EGC) are known to regulate gastrointestinal functions; however, their role in Crohn’s disease (CD) is elusive. Microscopic erosions over the ileal Peyer’s patches are early signs of CD. The aim of this work was to assess the localization of EGC in the follicle and interfollicula...
