This study presents the first highly multiplexed single cell analysis of the immune cell compartment of CD fistulas and their spatial context. It links immune cell dynamics, particularly MMP9+ neutrophils, to extracellular matrix remodelling in CD fistulas, offering insights into the complex network of cellular interactions and potential therapeutic targets for CD complications.
