Recombinant Sj16 (rSj16), a 16-kDa secreted protein of Schistosoma japonicum (S.japonicum) produced by Escherichia coli (E. coli), has been shown to have immunoregulatory effects in vivo and in vitro. In this study, we aimed to determine the effects of rSj16 on dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis. %K parasites %K rSj16 %K inflammatory bowel disease %K protective effects %K PPAR-¦Á. %U http://www.thno.org/v07p3446.htm
