Animal model of intestinal inflammation is essential for the understanding of the pathomechanisms of inflammatory bowel diseases like Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. Typically, naïve T-cells were transferred into immunocompromised mice and develop gut inflammation because of inappropriate downregulation. Here, we describe the isolation, purification, and transfer of CD4(+)CD25(-) T-cells into recipients to obtain an experimental colitis model for the analysis of pathogenesis.
