BSG and inflammatory bowel disease: The quantification exhibited that CD147 in intestinal epithelial cells was significantly higher in patients with IBD specimens (n = 77) relative to that in controls (n = 19, p < 0.01); what is more, we also found that enrichment of CD147 is majorly expressed in intestinal inflammatory cells, suggesting involvement of CD147 in intestinal inflammatory reaction (Figures 2(c) and 2(d)).
