“…The CCAAT/enhancer‐binding protein delta (C/EBPδ, Cebpd), a basic leucine zipper transcription factor, regulates many biological processes such as inflammation, cell proliferation, differentiation and genomic stability (Balamurugan & Sterneck, ; Ramji & Foka, ). Furthermore, recent studies reported that C/EBPδ is involved in regulating the apoptotic responses to various signals including cytokines, oxidative stress and DNA damage (Banerjee et al, , ; Hour et al, ; Moore et al, ; Pawar et al, ; Wang et al, ). However, the role of C/EBPδ in IBD remains unclear.…”
