Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Carcinogenic pathway from chronic inflammation is considered as an important pathway. Carcinogenesis in ulcerative colitis is one of the important diseases. We analyzed a cell adhesion molecule, CD44, in ulcerative colitis-associated neoplastic lesions, dysplasia and cancer. In addition, we searched for proteins which are specifically up- or down-regulated in ulcerative colitis mucosa. As a result, CD44 was down regulated in ulcerative colitis-associated lesions, and its expression was considered to be associated with Adam17 expression. Carbonic anhydrase 2 was identified as one of the proteins down-regulated in ulcerative colitis mucosa.
