Is pancreatic reg gene expression inhibited during cellular differentiation?
Expression of reg I inversely correlates with the level of cellular differentiation, can be modulated via the glucocorticoid receptor, and is a potential marker of gastrointestinal epithelial differentiation. Despite its presence within a pancreatic acinar cell line, reg I gene expression is not modulated by gastrointestinal hormones.
We concluded that oxidative stress increases in patients at high risk for cardiovascular events based on their hsCRP.
