Molecular Changes in the Non-Inflamed Terminal Ileum of Patients with Ulcerative Colitis
Ulcerative colitis is a chronic inflammatory disease confined to the colon. Although the etiopathogenesis remains unknown, small bowel dysfunctions like histological and permeability alterations have been described in ulcerative colitis. We evaluated the

Background and Aims: Inflammatory mediator S100A9 is dramatically elevated in ulcerative colitis and correlates with disease severity. S100A9 is a potential molecule to target for the treatment of colitis, but to date, there is no effective targeting ...

Current concept on the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease-crosstalk between genetic and microbial factors: Pathogenic bacteria and altered bacterial sensing or changes in mucosal integrity take "toll"? [PDF]
The pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is only partially understood. Various environmental and host (e.g. genetic-, epithelial-, immune and non-immune) factors are involved.

TGF‐β has a complex role in cancer, exhibiting both tumor‐suppressive and tumor‐promoting properties. Using a series of differentiated tumoroids, derived from different stages and mutational background of colorectal cancer patients, we replicate this duality of TGF‐β in vitro. Notably, the atypical but highly aggressive KRASQ22K mutation rendered early‐

The incidence of ulcerative colitis has been increasing in recent years, and its manifestation at a young age has become a trend that is prognostically unfavorable.

BACKGROUND & AIMS Ulcerative colitis (UC) is difficult to treat, and standard therapy does not always induce remission. Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) is an alternative approach that induced remission in small series of patients with active UC ...

Development of colon cancer after liver transplantation for primary sclerosing cholangitis associated with ulcerative colitis [PDF]
Between February 26, 1981, and July 30, 1987, 36 patients underwent orthotopic liver transplantation for primary sclerosing cholangitis associated with ulcerative colitis.

Loss of proton‐sensing GPR4 reduces tumor progression in mouse models of colon cancer
G protein‐coupled receptor 4 (GPR4) is a pH‐sensing receptor activated by acidic pH. GPR4 expression is increased in patients with inflammatory bowel disease who are at high risk of developing colorectal cancer. In mouse models, loss of GPR4 attenuated tumor progression. This correlated with increased IL2 and natural killer cell activity.

Tofacitinib as Induction and Maintenance Therapy for Ulcerative Colitis
To the Editor: Sandborn et al. (May 4 issue)1 raise two important issues that deserve attention. First, when patients with moderate-to-severe ulcerative colitis show no improvement in response to treatment with mesalamine or a dosage of glucocorticoids ...
