En étudiant l'"ADN poubelle", des chercheurs ont découvert un nouveau gène, ETS2, qui joue un rôle dans l'inflammation de l'intestin ! De nouvelles recherches montrent que le gène ETS2 modifie la forme de l'ADN et active d'autres gènes qui déclenchent l'inflammation dans l'intestin. Cette découverte pourrait déboucher sur de nouveaux traitements et permettre de s'attaquer aux causes sous-jacentes de la maladie de Crohn et de la colite ulcéreuse. Pour en savoir plus sur cette découverte révolutionnaire, consultez notre site web bit.ly/4cuf4OX

By studying “junk DNA” researchers have unearthed a new gene, ETS2, as a driver of inflammation in the gut! New research shows that ETS2 changes the shape of DNA and turns on other genes that activate inflammation in the gut. This finding could lead to new treatments and help address the underlying causes of Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis.
