Abstract
The present inventors discovered for the first time that intestinal inflammation could be efficiently suppressed by suppressing the production or accumulation of chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans. Specifically, inflammation in the large intestine can be suppressed by using siRNA to suppress the expression of versican, which is one of the chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans. Compounds used as siRNA, such as nucleic acids, can be used as effective agents for suppressing intestinal inflammation. Furthermore, the above finding also suggests that such intestinal inflammation-suppressing agents can be found by screening for compounds that suppress the production or accumulation of chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans.
