We further focused on OSM/oncostatin M. To confirm the responsiveness of intestinal tissues from patients with Crohn’s disease to oncostatin M inhibition, we examined the expression of the oncostatin M using immunohistochemistry in patient biopsies as well as in kindlin-1−/− and kindlin-2−/− knockout mice, which exhibit an inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) phenotype, and found strong oncostatin M expression in all samples examined. This evidence concerns the gene FERMT2 and Crohn disease.
