MUCOSAL EXPRESSION OF GENES PI3, ANXA1, AND VDR DESCRIMINATES CROHNS DISEASE FROM ULCERATIVE COLITIS IN INFLAMMATORY BOWEL DISEASE PATIENTS

Differential diagnosis of Inflammatory Bowel Disease Unclassified (IBDU) patients to Crohn’s Disease (CD) or Ulcerative Colitis (UC) at diagnosis is challenging. Personalized disease-specific strategies are becoming state of art and therefore it is of … Continue reading

EVALUATION OF CLINICAL VARIABLES, RADIOLOGICAL VISUAL ANALOG SCORING, AND RADIOMICS FEATURES ON CT ENTEROGRAPHY FOR CHARACTERIZING SEVERE INFLAMMATION AND FIBROSIS IN STRICTURING CROHN’S DISEASE

25% of patients with Crohn’s disease (CD) develop severe stricturing disease which is non-responsive to standard-of-care medication. Early and non-invasive determination of the extent of inflammation and fibrosis within the stricture via CT enterograph… Continue reading

A NOVEL BISPECIFIC CD8 TREG MODULATOR TARGETING CYTOLYTIC CD8 REGULATORY T CELLS REDUCES PATHOGENIC CD4 T CELLS AND INFLAMMATION IN TRANSLATIONAL MODELS OF INTESTINAL AUTOIMMUNE AND INFLAMMATORY DISEASE

We have characterized a novel CD8 Treg network in autoimmune patient peripheral blood and tissues, in which a subset of cytolytic CD8 Treg eliminate pathogenic CD4 T cells, reducing inflammation and ameliorating disease in response to pathogenic CD4 T … Continue reading
