Description
Cdx2 has been suggested to play an important role in Barrett's esophagus (BE), or intestinal metaplasia (IM) in the esophagus. However, in vivo data have been lacking. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether transgenic overexpression of zCdx1b, the functional equivalent of mammalian Cdx2 in zebrafish, may lead to IM of squamous epithelium in zebrafish
