Despite its recognized influence on other intestinal cell types, the specific roles of RA on these cells are less understood. This study investigates the extensive impact of RA inhibition on the intestinal composition using zebrafish, while also considering its potential use as a model for Hirschsprung disease (HSCR).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Zebrafish larvae were treated with diethylaminobenzaldehyde (DEAB), an inhibitor of RA synthesis, to induce phenotypes resembling total colonic aganglionosis. Single\u2010cell RNA sequencing was performed to compare the intestinal cell composition of DEAB\u2010treated zebrafish with wildtype and a <jats:italic>ret<\/jats:italic> mutant HSCR model.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Inhibition of RA reduced ENS cell numbers but also induced significant changes within non\u2010neuronal cell populations. Notably, there was an increase in epithelial cells, a decrease in immune cells, and suppression of inflammatory pathways. Additionally, we observed increased myofibroblast numbers and decreased fibroblasts, which might suggest fibrosis. Comparative analysis of the <jats:italic>ret<\/jats:italic> mutant and DEAB\u2010treated models showed profound effects on non\u2010neuronal cells, yet most of these changes differed between the two models, underscoring the distinct roles of RA and Ret signaling on intestinal development.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>These findings highlight RA's pivotal role in maintaining intestinal structure and immune homeostasis, while further supporting the importance of considering both neuronal and non\u2010neuronal cell populations in HSCR research.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/nmo.70155","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,12]],"date-time":"2025-09-12T08:42:42Z","timestamp":1757666562000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Retinoic Acid Inhibition Alters Intestinal Composition in Zebrafish: A Non\u2010genetic Model to Study Hirschsprung Disease?"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"37","author":[{"given":"Naomi J.
