Abstract
Agents useful for modulating the dioxin/aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) can now be identified by determining the binding to said receptor and whether said agent suppresses or inhibits the expression of a gene substantially consisting of a sequence according to one of SEQ. ID. NO. 1 and SEQ. ID. NO. 2; a nucleotide sequence functionally homologous, or substantially homologous, or at least 90% identical to one of SEQ. ID. NO. 1 and SEQ. ID. NO. 2; and a nucleotide sequence complementary to the nucleotide sequence of SEQ. ID. NO. 1 or SEQ. ID. NO. 2. Such agents find utility in pharmaceutical compositions and methods for the prevention, alleviation or treatment of diseases involving gastrointestinal hyperplasia, such as gastrointestinal cancer or gastric cancer.
