Intestinal inflammation liberates chemicals that nourish the growth of E. coli in Crohn's disease

A multi-year study of the role of E. coli gut bacteria in Crohn's disease finds that intestinal inflammation liberates chemicals that nourish the bacteria's growth and promotes their ability to cause inflammation.

New insight into lymphoid cell maturity could pave the way for more effective IBD treatments

A research group at Karolinska Institutet in Sweden has analyzed how certain immune cells known as innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) develop into mature cells that play a part in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).

Vaccines safely protect IBD patients from COVID-19

COVID-19 vaccines taken by people with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which affects millions worldwide, safely and effectively protects them from the SARS-Cov-2 virus, a Rutgers study finds.

Imbalances in the intestinal virome may promote inflammatory bowel disease, research shows

Research in recent years has demonstrated the diverse roles that gut bacteria can play in health and disease, but what about contributions from viruses, which, like bacteria, perpetually reside within the human intestine?

Unique immune cell fingerprint can help rapidly identify better treatment for autoimmune disease

Most autoimmune diseases are easy to diagnose but hard to treat. A paper published today in Science proposes using your unique immune cell fingerprint to rapidly identify which treatments will work for your autoimmune disease.

Association between the COVID-19 pandemic and inflammatory bowel disease presentation in New York City

Researchers evaluated the association between new IBD diagnoses in NYC and the COVID-19 pandemic.

Exploring the vital connection between gut microbes, physical activity, and health

Our bowels accommodate billions of active microbes that affect the health, a fact that is arousing increasing interest also among athletes.

Investigators create specialized, tissue-like structures to model barrier tissues

Investigators at the Brigham and the Broad Institute have created specialized, tissue-like structures in the laboratory to model barrier tissues, such as the intestines, to identify new targets for treatment. Barrier tissues are exposed to substances from the outside world but serve as a layer of protection.

Toxin-producing yeast strains may damage the gut of patients with inflammatory bowel disease

Individual Candida albicans yeast strains in the human gut are as different from each other as the humans that carry them, and some C. albicans strains may damage the gut of patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), according to a new study from researchers at Weill Cornell Medicine.

New insight into how gut bacteria work to counter intestinal inflammation

Bile acids made by the liver have long been known for their critical role in helping to absorb the food we ingest.

Research finds link between long-term exposure to air pollution and autoimmune disease risk

Long term exposure to air pollution is linked to a heightened risk of autoimmune disease, particularly rheumatoid arthritis, connective tissue and inflammatory bowel diseases, finds research published online in the open access journal RMD Open.

New computational biology method deciphers gut microbiome ‘chatter’ to fight IBD

Around 500,000 people in the UK live with Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), a life-long, chronic condition characterized by sporadic bouts of gut inflammation causing debilitating symptoms.

Study may pave the way for better multiple sclerosis drugs

Investigators from Weill Cornell Medicine and Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center have discovered how a drug for multiple sclerosis interacts with its targets, a finding that may pave the way for better treatments.

Taller adults may be more likely to develop colorectal cancer, study finds

A new meta-analysis, or data examination of several independent studies, by Johns Hopkins Medicine researchers adds to evidence that taller adults may be more likely than shorter ones to develop colorectal cancer or colon polyps that can later become malignant.

Intensive treatment for patients with Crohn's disease found to be safe

Intensive treatment for patients with Crohn's disease showed no safety differences compared to the current standard of care, according to a trial published in the journal Gastroenterology.

Study provides new understanding of the earliest molecular events in Type 1 Diabetes pathogenesis

For the first time, researchers have revealed that during the development of Type 1 Diabetes (T1D), when insulin-producing cells in the pancreas are under attack from T lymphocytes, the cells lining the pancreatic duct reprogram themselves in an attempt to suppress autoimmune T cell responses.
