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.

T cell responses in inflammatory bowel disease patients on immune-modifying agents after mRNA COVID-19 vaccination

Researchers characterized humoral and SARS-CoV-2 S-specific T cell responses in IBD patients who received two-dose mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccination series.

25 Feb 2022

Cell-mediated immune response among inflammatory bowel disease patients after mRNA COVID-19 vaccination

Researchers evaluated CMIR in IBD patients following immunization with two doses of COVID-19 vaccine.

25 Feb 2022

Interleukin-1 Receptor-Like 2 cytokine accomplishes a dual effect in inflammation and healing

The Interleukin-1 Receptor-Like 2 (IL-1RL2) cytokine can promote inflammatory diseases and have a role in controlling infection.

Genetic analysis reveals eosinophilic colitis as a unique disease

A condition called eosinophilic colitis is distinct from other, similar eosinophilic gastrointestinal diseases and inflammatory bowel disease, according to a genetic analysis published in Gastroenterology.

Scientists use entire human GI tracts to shed light on cellular functions

If you get nervous, you might feel it in your gut. If you eat chili, your gut might revolt, but your friend can eat anything and feel great. You can pop ibuprofen like candy with no ill effects, but your friend's belly might bleed and she might get no pain relief.
