Abstract
Mucosal healing regenerates the mucosal complex upon injury. Mucosal repair requires sequential biologic steps paradoxically enabled or blocked by prostaglandin E2. In this issue of Cell Host & Microbe, Jain etal. (2018) find that the microbial metabolite, deoxycholate, regulates prostaglandin E2 and thus coordinates the steps of mucosal healing.
