ABSTRACT Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the colon with limited effectiveness and safety of current drug therapies. Betulinic acid (BA) is a naturally occurring pentacyclic triterpenoid present in traditional Chinese medicines used clinically as retention enemas for UC, but its direct effects and mechanisms remain unclear ...

ABSTRACT Copper is an environmental contaminant capable of disrupting redox homeostasis and impairing antioxidant defenses in aquatic organisms, thereby increasing susceptibility to oxidative stress. The cystine/glutamate antiporter (system xc−) plays a central role in maintaining intracellular glutathione (GSH) levels, a major antioxidant defense ...

Review Article: The Impact of the Gut Microbiome on Ulcerative Colitis Pharmacotherapy
The gut microbiome modulates ulcerative colitis pharmacotherapy through microbial drug metabolism, immune regulation and altered drug bioavailability. Microbial composition influences response to aminosalicylates, corticosteroids, immunomodulators, biologics and small molecules, while microbiome‐targeted therapies show emerging promise.

In a retrospective population‐based cohort study using the University of Manitoba IBD Epidemiology Database, persons with IBD have an increased risk of ESRD by nearly 50%, with CD showing greater risk than UC. Bowel surgery, allopurinol use and oral steroid therapy are important predictors, emphasising the necessity of careful renal monitoring in IBD ...

Impact of Zinc‐Dependent Enzymes on Zinc Deficiency and Inflammatory Response in Ulcerative Colitis
ABSTRACT Background and Aim Zinc (Zn) deficiency occurs in 40% of patients with ulcerative colitis (UC). Although Zn‐dependent enzymes are involved in intestinal immune regulation, their relationships with Zn deficiency and mucosal inflammation remain unclear.

ABSTRACT Background and Aim Upadacitinib, a selective Janus kinase 1 inhibitor, is approved to treat moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC). This post hoc subanalysis evaluated the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of upadacitinib in patients in East Asia. Methods U‐ACHIEVE (UC1; NCT02819635) and U‐ACCOMPLISH (UC2; NCT03653026) were

Abstract figure legend Suboptimal maternal nutrition alters placental and developing blood–brain barrier (BBB) protective function and is associated with increased fetal brain vulnerability. In the placenta, nutritional adversity may reduce the exchange surface area and promote meta‐inflammation, compromising barrier efficiency in a model‐ and context ...
