Core Tip |
Recent evidence suggests that besides the genetic basis, epigenetic factors including microRNAs (miRs) also act as potent inflammatory modulators during the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease. MiR expression in the upper-gastrointestinal tract of pediatric patients with Crohn’s disease (CD) has not yet been analyzed. Moreover, the relation of transforming growth factor-β, playing a prominent role in the pathomechanism of CD, to miRs in this setting is also unknown. The description of precise miR patterns specific for the different segments of the gastrointestinal tract may contribute to the introduction of novel diagnostic markers and to the identification of potential therapeutic targets. |
