Bacterial Characteristics of Intestinal Tissues From Patients With Crohn’s Disease
Background and AimsIt is believed that intestinal bacteria play an indispensable role in promoting intestinal inflammation. However, the characteristics of these tissue-associated bacteria remain elusive. The aim of this study is to explore the bacterial loads, compositions, and structures in the no...
