| Research Abstract |
REG protein is induced by Interleukins 6 and 22 stimulations in colitis tissues. REG protein has an anti-apoptotic effect on colonic epithelial cells and its effect may play a role in the development of inflammation-related cancers. REG protein is overexpressed in the dysplastic lesion in ulcerative colitis tissues, and therefore, its detection may be an useful tool to not only diagnose but also predict ulcerative colitis-related neoplastic lesions.
