The impact of disease and species differences on the intestinal CLCA4 gene expression
12 Apr 2025
Abstract excerpt
The human chloride channel regulator, calcium-activated (CLCA) 4 is discussed as a driver of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition as well as a biomarker for colorectal cancer (CRC) and ulcerative colitis. In contrast to humans, the Clca4 gene is duplicated in the mouse, a common model species to study gene functions. However, the relevance of the functional murine Clca4 variants in healthy and diseased intestine...
