Expression of the Regenerating Gene Family in Inflammatory Bowel Disease Mucosa: Reg Iα Upregulation, Processing, and Antiapoptotic Activity
1 Nov 2002
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The pathophysiology of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) reflects a balance between mucosal injury related to an ongoing inflammatory process and mucosal reparative mechanisms. Proreparative mucosal factors may offer new therapeutic paradigms. Transcriptional profiling can be applied to identify candidate gene products involved in colonic mucosal regeneration. METHODS: Resection specimens from patients...
