“…The SAM analysis revealed differences in the expression of several genes previously identified to be associated with chemotherapy-induced mucositis, including MMP1, 2, 9, and 12 and their regulators TIMP-1 and TIMP- 2 and ADAMTS-1, the tight-junction protein OCLN, the proinflammatory cytokine IL-1β, TLR2 and 4, KLF4, MUC4, and ASS1 [7,8,10,11,13,14,15,16,17,18,22]. Furthermore, it revealed differential regulation of several other genes related to innate mucosal immunology and GI mucosal homeostasis [12,20,21,23,35,36].…”
