Funded Activity Summary

We aim to understand the role that a new factor plays in the processes whereby the lining of the stomach is continually renewed, and also repaired after injury due to inflammation and ulceration. Once we understand the role of this factor and how it works, we may be able to use this factor as a therapeutic to prevent the initial formation of inflammation and ulceration in the stomach that can lead to more serious diseases, such as cancer.
