In harmony with previous studies, our results showed significant up-regulation of NFATC1 expression with higher histopathological scores in mice with oxazolone-induced colitis (Elloumi et al. 2012; Pan et al. 2013), in addition to the induced extensive inflammatory response evidenced by enhanced IL-13 production (Heller et al. 2002). This evidence concerns the gene IL13 and colitis.
