We previously found that a population of colonic stromal cells that constitutively express high
levels of prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2 (Ptgs2, also known as Cox-2) altered their
location in the lamina propria in response to injury in a Myd88-dependent manner (Brown,
SL, Riehl, TE, Walker, MR, Geske, MJ, Doherty, JM, Stenson, WF, and Stappenbeck, TS
(2007) J. Clin. Invest. 117, 258–269). At the time of this study, the identity of these cells and
the mechanism by which they expressed high levels of Ptgs2 were unknown. Here we found …
