Abstract
Loss of Ihh initiates several events that are characteristic of an intestinal wound repair response. Prolonged loss resulted in progressive inflammation, mucosal damage, and the development of intestinal fibrosis. Ihh is a signal derived from the superficial epithelial cells that may act as a critical indicator of epithelial integrity.
