physiological function | heparanase is constantly overexpressed and activated throughout ulcerative colitis. Heparanase powers a chronic inflammatory circuit that promotes colitis-associated tumorigenesis. Heparanase overexpression markedly increases the incidence and severity of colitis-associated colonic tumors. Heparanase overexpression directly affects macrophage recruitment and activation | Homo sapiens |
