FCN1 and colitis: The role of ficolin-1 (FCN1) in PIBD and its association with macrophage infiltration was investigated using the CIBERSORT method and enrichment analysis of the single-cell dataset GSE121380, and further validated using immunoblotting, qRT-PCR, and immunostaining in colon biopsies from PIBD patients, a juvenile murine DSS-induced colitis model, and THP-1-derived macrophages.
