WDR7 and colitis: We observed microbial invasion of the mucus layer in healthy villin-TNFAIP3 mice which do not develop colitis but do exhibit increased FoxP3+ve Tregs in their mucosa.26 These Foxp3+ve Tregs might be preventing colitis from occurring in villin-TNFAIP3 mice, and the lack of these cells in TRAG mice might therefore contribute to the spontaneous development of innate immune mediated IBD we observe in TRAG mice.
