Tumor Necrosis Factor Alpha Is a Key Mediator of Gut Inflammation Seen in Amebic Colitis in Human Intestine in the SCID Mouse-Human Intestinal Xenograft Model of Disease

We used Entamoeba histolytica infection in human intestinal xenografts to study the roles interleukin-1 (IL-1) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) in the pathogenesis of amebic colitis. We found that blockade of TNF-α reduced inflammation and intestinal damage in amebic infection, while inhibiti...
