    摘要、提要註: Chronic inflammatory conditions such as Crohn's disease (CD) and Ulcerative colitis (UC) are risk factors for colon cancer. TGFbeta has been shown to be dysregulated in colon cancer. Bacteria-induced inflammation is necessary for the induction of colon cancer in TGFbeta mouse models. However, the mechanism by which TGFbeta regulates the inflammatory response in these models is not well elucidated. It was our thought that we needed to be able to distinguish what was TGFbeta dependent and what was inflammation dependent. To do this we created 2 colonies of Smad3 mice. One colony was housed with normal colonic bacteria (Smad3-uninfected animals) and the other colony (Smad3-infected animals) had chronic H. hepaticus infection. As previously seen the Smad3-/--infected animals developed colitis and carcinoma (~40%).
