Abstract:
Gastrokine-1 (Gkn-1) is a stomach protein that protects the gastrointestinal (GI) tract and has properties to manipulate smooth muscle contraction, prevent NSAID-induced ulceration of the gastrointestinal tract of a mammal, inhibit growth and survival of cancer cells and induce weight loss in a mammal. Previously this protein was designated AMP-18.
