Poster Session II – Poster of Distinction II A319 UPREGULATION OF COLLAGEN 4 IS CORRELATED WITH INCREASED TISSUE STIFFNESS OF MOUSE EMBRYONIC MODEL OF HIRSCHSPRUNG DISEASE
D Lee, M Zhu, S Hopyan, B Li, A Pierro

TL;DR
The study explores the relationship between collagen 4 upregulation and tissue stiffness in a mouse model of Hirschsprung disease.
Contribution
The novel contribution is identifying collagen 4 upregulation as correlated with increased tissue stiffness in an embryonic mouse model of Hirschsprung disease.
Findings
Collagen 4 is upregulated in the mouse embryonic model of Hirschsprung disease.
This upregulation correlates with increased tissue stiffness in the model.
