In ileal CD, the uniquely regulated proteins CUB domain-containing protein 1 (CDCP1), leukemia inhibitory factor receptor (LIF-R), and C-X3-C motif chemokine ligand 1 (CX3CL1) were all downregulated in patients with active inflammation compared to non-IBD controls. The gene discussed is CX3CL1; the disease is inflammatory bowel disease.
