Li P, Chen Y, Xiang Y, Guo R, Li X, Liu J, Zhou Y, Fu X. 17β-estradiol promotes myeloid-derived suppressor cells functions and alleviates inflammatory bowel disease by activation of Stat3 and NF-κB signalings. J Steroid Biochem Mol Biol 2024; 242:106540.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) describes a group of clinically common autoimmune diseases characterized by chronic intestinal inflammation, with gender differences in prevalence. Estrogen has been previously shown to exert anti-inflammatory action in IBD development, however, the mechanisms remain obscure. Recent research has revealed that myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) play a protective role in IBD pathogenesis. To investigate the molecular mechanisms of estrogen steroid 17β-estradiol (E2) in IBD progression, we established IBD mouse models (DNB-induced) with or without prior ovariectomy (OVX) and E2 implantation. We found that OVX led to worse IBD symptoms and reduced MDSCs frequency, whereas E2 significantly alleviated these effects in vivo. Moreover, in vitro experiments showed that E2 promoted the proliferation and immunosuppressive function of MDSCs through phosphorylation of Stat3 and p65. Mechanistically, E2-mediated Stat3/p65 phosphorylation depends on the interaction between HOTAIR, a long non-coding RNA that are well-known in MDSCs proliferation, and Stat3/p65 respectively. In conclusion, our study revealed that E2 promotes the expansion and immunosuppressive function of MDSCs, and thus diminished the occurrence and development of IBD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sterile alpha and TIR motif-containing 1 (Sarm1) is known as a negative regulator of inflammatory responses. However, its role in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is still unclear. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to explore the function of Sarm1 in IBD and its underlying mechanisms. Sarm1 and tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor associated factor 3 (TRAF3) knockout (KO) micewere established. METHODS The colitis was induced using dextran sulfate sodium (DSS). Bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) were isolated and stimulated with lipopolysaccharides (LPS) or cytidine phosphate guanosine(CpG). Inflammatory cytokines were measured viaELISA. qPCR and Western blotting were used to determine the levels of the mRNA and protein expression, respectively. RESULTS It was demonstrated that reduced expression of Sarm1 was correlated with the severity of IBD in ulcerative colitis patients, and also with the reduction of pro-inflammatory cytokines in the mouse model induced by DSS. It was further observed that Sarm1 KO enhanced the induction of pro-inflammatory cytokines in both animal and in vitro cell models. Sarm1 deficiency in macrophages increased the severity of colitis in the mouse model induced by DSS. Moreover, Sarm1 regulatedTRAF3 recruitment to myeloid differentiation primary response protein 88 (MyD88), which in turn controlled the MYD88-mediated inflammatory responses. CONCLUSIONS In summary, our data suggest that Sarm1 controls the MYD88-mediated inflammatory responses in IBD via its regulation of TRAF3 recruitment.

Abstract
Clinical biomarker development has been stymied by inaccurate protein quantification from mass spectrometry (MS) discovery data and a prolonged validation process. To mitigate these issues, we created the Targeted Extraction Assessment of Quantification (TEAQ) software package. This innovative tool uses the discovery cohort analysis to select precursors, peptides, and proteins that adhere to established targeted assay criteria. TEAQ was applied to Data-Independent Acquisition MS data from plasma samples acquired on an Orbitrap™ Astral™ MS. Identified precursors were evaluated for linearity, specificity, repeatability, reproducibility, and intra-protein correlation from 11-point loading curves under three throughputs, to develop a resource for clinical-grade targeted assays. From a clinical cohort of individuals with inflammatory bowel disease (n=492), TEAQ successfully identified 1116 signature peptides for 327 quantifiable proteins from 1180 identified proteins. Embedding stringent selection criteria adaptable to targeted assay development into the analysis of discovery data will streamline the transition to validation and clinical studies.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic idiopathic inflammatory disorder that affects the entire gastrointestinal tract and is associated with an increased risk of colorectal cancer. Mainstream clinical testing methods are time-consuming, painful for patients, and insufficiently sensitive to detect early symptoms. Currently, there is no definitive cure for IBD, and frequent doses of medications with potentially severe side effects may affect patient response. In recent years, nanomaterials have demonstrated considerable potential for IBD management due to their diverse structures, composition, and physical and chemical properties. In this review, we provide an overview of the advances in nanomaterial-based diagnosis and treatment of IBD in recent five years. Multi-functional bio-nano platforms, including contrast agents, near-infrared (NIR) fluorescent probes, and bioactive substance detection agents have been developed for IBD diagnosis. Based on a series of pathogenic characteristics of IBD, the therapeutic strategies of antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and intestinal microbiome regulation of IBD based on nanomaterials are systematically introduced. Finally, the future challenges and prospects in this field are presented to facilitate the development of diagnosis and treatment of IBD.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is an illness with increasing prevalence, particularly in emerging countries, which can have a substantial impact on the quality of life of the patient. The illness is rather heterogeneous with different evolution among patients. A machine learning approach is followed in this paper to identify potential genes that are related to IBD. This is done by following a Monte Carlo simulation approach. In total, 23 different machine learning techniques were tested (in addition to a base level obtained using artificial neural networks). The best model identified 74 genes selected by the algorithm as being potentially involved in IBD. IBD seems to be a polygenic illness, in which environmental factors might play an important role. Following a machine learning approach, it was possible to obtain a classification accuracy of 84.2% differentiating between patients with IBD and control cases in a large cohort of 2490 total cases. The sensitivity and specificity of the model were 82.6% and 84.4%, respectively. It was also possible to distinguish between the two main types of IBD: (1) Crohn's disease and (2) ulcerative colitis.

Abstract
This study aimed to identify the therapeutic ability of a novel toll-like receptor (TLR) 5 agonist, KMRC011, on ulcerative colitis induced by Citrobacter rodentium and dextran sulfate sodium in a C57BL/6N mouse model. Ulcerative colitis was induced in the mice by the oral administration of 1% dextran sulfate sodium in sterile drinking water for seven days ad libitum, followed by C. rodentium infection on the seventh day by intra-gastric administration (DSS-CT group). KMRC011 was administered intramuscularly at both 24 h and 15 min before (Treatment 1 group), and at both 15 min and 24 h after (Treatment 2 group) the C. rodentium infection. The length of the large intestine and histopathological counts were significantly greater and mucosal thickness was significantly thinner in the Treatment 1 group compared to the DSS-CT and Treatment 2 groups. Il-6 and Il-10 mRNA expression levels were upregulated, while Ifn-γ and Tnf-α mRNA expression levels were significantly downregulated in the Treatment 1 group, compared to the DSS-CT group. NF-κB p65 expression level was elevated due to ulcerative colitis in the DSS-CT group, but was significantly downregulated in the Treatment 1 group. Overall, KMRC011 showed protective effects against murine colitis by inhibiting NF-κB signaling.

Abstract
Checkpoint molecules are cell surface receptors on immune cells that mitigate excessive immune responses, but they have increased expression levels in cancer to facilitate immune escape. Checkpoint blockade therapies (e.g., anti-PD-1, anti-CTLA-4, and anti-LAG-3 therapy, among others) have been developed for multiple cancers. Colitis associated with checkpoint blockade therapy has pathophysiological similarities to inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), such as Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. Current therapeutic guidelines for checkpoint blockade-induced colitis include corticosteroids and, if the patient is refractory to steroids, immunomodulating antibodies, such as anti-TNF and anti-integrin agents. Interestingly, immunomodulatory molecules, such as TNFα, are upregulated in both IBD and checkpoint-mediated colitis. The inflammatory colitis toxicity symptoms from checkpoint blockade are similar to clinical symptoms experienced by patients with IBD. The pathophysiologic, dietary, and genetic factors associated with IBD will be reviewed. We will then explain how the principles developed for the treatment of IBD can be applied to patients experiencing inflammatory bowel toxicity secondary to checkpoint blockade.

Abstract
Gut microbiota has a significant role in gut development, maturation, and immune system differentiation. It exerts considerable effects on the child's physical and mental development. The gut microbiota composition and structure depend on many host and microbial factors. The host factors include age, genetic pool, general health, dietary factors, medication use, the intestine's pH, peristalsis, and transit time, mucus secretions, mucous immunoglobulin, and tissue oxidation-reduction potentials. The microbial factors include nutrient availability, bacterial cooperation or antagonism, and bacterial adhesion. Each part of the gut has its microbiota due to its specific characteristics. The gut microbiota interacts with different body parts, affecting the pathogenesis of many local and systemic diseases. Dysbiosis is a common finding in many childhood disorders such as autism, failure to thrive, nutritional disorders, coeliac disease, Necrotizing Enterocolitis, helicobacter pylori infection, functional gastrointestinal disorders of childhood, inflammatory bowel diseases, and many other gastrointestinal disorders. Dysbiosis is also observed in allergic conditions like atopic dermatitis, allergic rhinitis, and asthma. Dysbiosis can also impact the development and the progression of immune disorders and cardiac disorders, including heart failure. Probiotic supplements could provide some help in managing these disorders. However, we are still in need of more studies. In this narrative review, we will shed some light on the role of microbiota in the development and management of common childhood disorders.

Effect of sumatriptan on acetic acid-induced experimental colitis in rats: a possible role for the 5-HT 1B/1D receptors. Naunyn Schmiedebergs Arch Pharmacol 2022; 395:563-577.

Abstract
Mucosal inflammation in colitis is associated with changes in the intestinal serotonin (5-HT) level. Sumatriptan, a 5-HT1B/1D receptor agonist, has demonstrated anti-inflammatory characteristics. The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of sumatriptan in a rat model of acute experimental colitis and to elucidate the probable participation of presynaptic 5-HT1B/1D receptors. To induce colitis, acetic acid (4%) was injected intrarectally. Treatments were given intraperitoneally (IP) once daily over 3 consecutive days starting 1-h post-induction. Sumatriptan was given at 0.5, 1, 2, and 5 mg/kg. GR-127935, a 5-HT1B/1D receptor antagonist, was injected (0.1 and 0.3 mg/kg) 30 min prior to the most effective dose of sumatriptan (1 mg/kg). On day 4, the colon samples were isolated. Significant enhancements of the tissue tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), myeloperoxidase (MPO), microscopic and macroscopic damages, body weight losses, and also reductions in tissue superoxide dismutase (SOD) and 5-HT were observed in colitis rats. On the other hand, sumatriptan at doses 0.5, 1, and 2 mg/kg could diminish pathologic changes in the measured biomarkers, histopathologic damages, and body weight losses. Although GR-127935 at dose 0.3 mg/kg could markedly improve the pathologic indexes, its sub-effective dose (0.1 mg/kg) reversed the protective effect of sumatriptan (1 mg/kg). Moreover, sumatriptan (1 and 5 mg/kg) and GR-127935 (0.3 mg/kg) increased the serotonin level. Post-treatment with low-dose sumatriptan demonstrated a protective impact on this peripheral inflammatory condition. Notably, this protective effect may be mediated, at least in part, through 5-HT1B/1D receptors, as well as anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative characteristics.

Abstract
Intestinal inflammation is a major threat to the health and growth of young animals such as piglets. As a next-generation probiotics, limited studies have shown that Akkermansia muciniphila could alleviate inflammation of intestinal epithelial cells (IECs). In this study, a TNF-α-induced inflammatory model of IPEC-J2 cells, the intestinal porcine enterocytes, was built to evaluate the effects of active or inactive A. muciniphila on the inflammation of IECs. The viability of IPEC-J2 cells was the highest when treated with active (108 copies/mL) or inactive (109 copies/mL) A. muciniphila for 7.5 h (P < 0.01). Treated with 20 ng/mL of TNF-α and followed by a treatment of A. muciniphila, the mRNA level of proinflammatory cytokines (IL-8, IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α) was remarkably reduced (P < 0.05) along with the increased mRNA level of tight junction proteins (ZO-1 and Occludin, P < 0.05). Flow cytometry analysis showed that active or inactive A. muciniphila significantly suppressed the rate of the early and total apoptotic of the inflammatory IPEC-J2 cells (P < 0.05). According to results of transcriptome sequencing, active and inactive A. muciniphila may decline cell apoptosis by down-regulating the expression of key genes in calcium signaling pathway, or up-regulating the expression of key genes in cell cycle signaling pathway. And the bacterium may alleviate the inflammation of IECs by down-regulating the expression of PI3K upstream receptor genes. Our results indicate that A. muciniphila may be a promising NGP targeting intestinal inflammation.

Loxoprofen enhances intestinal barrier function via generation of its active metabolite by carbonyl reductase 1 in differentiated Caco-2 cells. Chem Biol Interact 2021; 348:109634.

Abstract
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are used worldwide as antipyretic analgesics and agents for rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis, but known to cause damage to the gastrointestinal mucosae as their serious adverse effects. Few studies showed the impairment of intestinal epithelial barrier function (EBF) by high concentrations (0.5-1 mM) of NSAIDs, but the underlying mechanism is not fully understood. This study is aimed at clarifying effects at a low concentration (50 μM) of three NSAIDs, loxoprofen (Lox), ibuprofen and indomethacin, on intestinal EBF using human intestinal epithelial-like Caco-2 cells. Among those NSAIDs, Lox increased the transepithelial electric resistance (TER) value, decreased the paracellular Lucifer yellow CH (LYCH) permeability, and upregulated claudin (CLDN)-1, -3 and -5, indicating that low doses of Lox enhanced EBF through increasing expression of CLDNs. Lox is known to be metabolized to a pharmacologically active metabolite, (2S,1'R,2'S)-loxoprofen alcohol (Lox-RS), by carbonyl reductase 1 (CBR1), which is highly expressed in human intestine. CBR1 was expressed in the Caco-2 cells, and the pretreatment with a CBR1 inhibitor suppressed both the Lox-evoked CLDN upregulation and EBF enhancement. In addition, the treatment of the cells with Lox-RS resulted in higher TER value and lower LYCH permeability than those with Lox. Thus, Lox-RS synthesized by CBR1 may greatly contribute to the improving efficacy of Lox on the barrier function. Since EBF is decreased in inflammatory bowel disease, we finally examined the effect of Lox on EBF using the Caco-2/THP-1 co-culture system, which is used as an in vitro inflammatory bowel disease model. Lox significantly recovered EBF which was impaired by inflammatory cytokines secreted from THP-1 macrophages. These in vitro observations suggest that Lox enhances intestinal EBF, for which the metabolism of Lox to Lox-RS by CBR1 has an important role.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) has been posed as a great worldwide health threat. Having an onset during early adulthood, IBD is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by remission and relapse. Due to its enigmatic etiology, no cure has been developed at the moment. Conventionally, steroids, 5-aminosalicylic acid, and immunosuppressants have been applied clinically to relieve patients’ syndrome which, unfavorably, causes severe adverse drug reactions including diarrhea, anemia, and glaucoma. Insufficient therapeutic effects also loom, and surgical resection is mandatory in half of the patients within 10 years after diagnosis. Biologics demonstrated unique and differentiative therapeutic mechanism which can alleviate the inflammation more effectively. However, their application in IBD has been hindered considering their stability and toxicity. Scientists have brought up with the concept of nanomedicine to achieve the targeted drug delivery of biologics for IBD. Here, we provide an overview of biologics for IBD treatment and we review existing formulation strategies for different biological categories including antibodies, gene therapy, and peptides. This review highlights the current trends in oral delivery of biologics with an emphasis on the important role of nanomedicine in the development of reliable methods for biologic delivery in IBD treatment.

Abstract
The present study was conducted to investigate the effects of early transplantation of the faecal microbiota from Tibetan pigs on the gut development of dextran sulphate sodium- (DSS-) challenged piglets. In total, 24 3-day-old DLY piglets were divided into four groups (n = 6 per group); a 2 × 2 factorial arrangement was used, which included faecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) (from Tibetan pigs) and DSS challenge. The whole trial lasted for 55 days. DSS infusion increased the intestinal density, serum diamine oxidase (DAO) activity, and colonic Escherichia coli count (P < 0.05), and decreased the Lactobacillus spp. count and mRNA abundances of epidermal growth factor (EGF), glucagon-like peptide-2 (GLP-2), insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), occludin, mucin 2 (MUC2), regeneration protein IIIγ (RegIIIγ), and interleukin-10 (IL-10) in the colon (P < 0.05). FMT increased the Lactobacillus spp. count and mRNA abundances of GLP-2, RegIIIγ, and IL-10 in the colon (P < 0.05), and decreased the intestinal density, serum DAO activity, and colonic E. coli number (P < 0.05). In addition, in DSS-challenged piglets, FMT decreased the disease activity index (P < 0.05) and attenuated the effect of DSS challenge on the intestinal density, serum DAO activity, and colonic E. coli number (P < 0.05). These data indicated that the faecal microbiota from Tibetan pigs could attenuate the negative effect of DSS challenge on the gut development of piglets.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the mechanism of Periplaneta americana extract promoting intestinal mucosal repair of OXZ-induced colitis in rat. METHODS All experiments used an equal number of male and female SD rats (n=48). We injected OXZ into the colon to induce UC rat model. To determine the optimal concentration of P. Americana's extract (PA-40), it was classified into low (L), medium (M), and high (H) doses. After OXZ treatment, each drug was administered by enema for 7 consecutive days. Rats were divided into the following 6 groups: (1) Saline treatment group (NC), (2) OXZ treatment UC model group (MC), (3) OXZ + budesonide group (BUN), (4) OXZ + PA-40 L group, (5) OXZ + PA-40 M group, (6) OXZ + PA-40 H group. Disease activity index (DAI) scores, colon length, histopathological score, serum cytokine level (IL-4, IL-10, iNOS, tNOS), and amount of MPO, EGF, IL-13 in colonic mucosa were measured. RESULTS PA treatment had a significant healing effect on the OXZ-colitis model and significantly reduced the lesioned area, especially in the PA-40H groups. PA treatment did not alter the expression of IL-10 and MPO level, but increased EGF (epidermal growth factor) and decrease IL-13 in the colonic tissue. PA inhibited the rise of NOSs (nitric oxide synthase) and decreased the serum IL-4 level. CONCLUSIONS The data suggest that Periplaneta americana extract may be a potential compound for the treatment of colonic lesions. The mechanism may be related to inhibiting the secretion of IL-13 and promoting the formation of EGF.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a disease that causes inflammation throughout the digestive tract. Repeated inflammation and frequent relapses cause intestinal damage and expose the patient to a higher risk. In this work, we proposed an immune therapy model for effective treatment strategy through mathematical modeling for patients with IBD. We evaluated the ability of the patient's immune system to recover during treatment. For this, we defined the interval of healthy individual, and examined the frequency of compartments such as T cells and cytokines considered in the model maintain the normal state. Based on the fact that each patient has a unique immune system, we have shown at the same drug works differently, depending on the individual immune system characteristics for every patient. It is known that IBD is related to an imbalance between pro- and anti- inflammatory cytokines as the cause of the disease. So the ratios of pro- to anti- inflammatory cytokines are used as an indicator of patient's condition and inflammation status in various diseases. We compared the ratios of pro- to anti- inflammatory cytokine according to patient's individual immune system and drugs. Since the effects of biological drugs are highly dependent on the patient's own immune system, it is essential to define the immune system status before selecting and using a biological drug.

Abstract
From the time of dietary intake to their utilization, the number of important interactions occurs among mineral elements, which can affect their bioavailability because of similarity in physicochemical properties and common absorptive pathways. However, the studies that have analyzed the interactions among copper, iron, and zinc have conflicting results and need further exploration. HT-29 cells grown to confluence in 6-well plates were incubated with increasing concentrations (0 to 200 μM) of Cu, Fe, and Zn for 3 and 6 h for uptake studies. Interaction studies involved measuring the uptake of metal in the presence of 0:1-4:1 ratio of the other metal for 3 h using atomic absorption spectrophotometer. The concentration of metal biomarkers and cytokines was also measured in the cell lysate following extracellular supplementation. The presence of 50 μM Zn significantly decreased (P < 0.05) cellular Cu uptake in HT-29 cells at 0.5:1 Cu:Zn ratio and also the cellular Fe uptake at the ratios 0.5:1, 2:1, and 4:1 Fe:Zn. The presence of 50 μM Fe significantly (P < 0.05) decreased cellular Cu uptake at the ratios 1:1, 2:1, and 4:1 Cu:Fe. The concentration of metallothionein responded significantly (P < 0.05) to changes in extracellular Zn concentration (supplementation and depletion). There was a decrease in concentration of IL-1β and TNF-α (P < 0.05) with an increasing extracellular concentration of Cu and Fe. The results of the study indicated that the presence of one mineral in the diet and multi mineral supplement may influence the bioavailability of the other mineral. Copper and iron may find application in promoting gut health.

Drug Des Devel Ther 2020; 14:677-696. [PMID: 32109993 PMCID: PMC7038417 DOI: 10.2147/dddt.s218357] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/05/2019] [Accepted: 11/07/2019] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Naringin is a promising anti-inflammatory drug against various disorders including ulcerative colitis. However, its oral bioavailability is low (8%) possibly due to cleavage at the upper gut. Consequently, colon targeting would be necessary for drug protection at the upper gut, enhanced oral bioavailability and potentiated cytoprotection against colitis. Methodology This study involved the formulation of compression-coated tablets of naringin employing mixtures of pH-sensitive Eudragit L100-55 (EUD-L100-55) and different time-dependent polymers including ethyl cellulose (EC), sodium alginate (ALG) and sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (SCMC). Drug-polymer interaction during release was assessed using Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Tablets were evaluated in vitro. Surface morphology of the optimized tablets either before or after exposure to the different release media was examined employing scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Cytoprotection potential of the optimized tablets against indomethacin-induced colitis in rabbits was screened and compared to core tablets through a histopathological examination of colon, measurement of serum perinuclear antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (pANCA) and immunohistochemical localization of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α). Results FT-IR and DSC results may indicate drug-polymers interaction during release. Release retardation could be related to polymer swelling that was in the order of SCMC > ALG > EC. SEM examination indicated more porous coats at the buffers relative to the acidic medium. Colon targeting was expected in case of coats of 5% ALG, 5% SCMC and 10% EC (w/w) in combination with EUD-L100-55; thus, they were selected for in vivo evaluation. Effective cytoprotection of selected tablets against indomethacin-induced colitis was indicated by a significant (P<0.05) reduction in mucosal damage, serum levels of pANCA and TNF-α expression compared to untreated colitis and core-pretreated groups. Compared to EC, higher cytoprotection potential of ALG- and SCMC-based tablets was reflected by lower concentration (5% w/w) to provide cytoprotection against indomethacin-induced colitis.

Dig Liver Dis 2018; 50:653-660. [PMID: 29610019 DOI: 10.1016/j.dld.2018.02.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/28/2017] [Revised: 02/15/2018] [Accepted: 02/28/2018] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
This expert-opinion paper reviews available evidence for the use of ustekinumab, a human interleukin 12/23 monoclonal antibody, in the treatment of Crohn's disease and discusses its potential role in the current treatment scenario for the condition. Ustekinumab appears to be associated with rapid and sustained clinical effect, as reported from the clinical research program, with additional support for potential mucosal healing. These characteristics are paralleled by a favorable safety profile, lack of immunogenicity and the presence of systemic anti-inflammatory activity. Importantly, ustekinumab requires only one single intravenous administration, while subsequent dosing is administered subcutaneously, with potential advantages for home-based therapy. Lastly, the dosage of ustekinumab is flexible. On the basis of the evidence, ustekinumab has a role in patients with primary failure or secondary loss of response to anti-tumor necrosis factor agents, as well as in those who have adverse events on front-line biologics or are reinitiating therapy after a treatment holiday. Current evidence suggests that ustekinumab may be particularly suitable in patients who present extra-intestinal manifestations of the disease or are at risk of infections. Ustekinumab may also be considered in the first-line setting, especially in frail patients, in young subjects or in those who have concomitant immune-mediated diseases.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) like Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis are chronic inflammatory disorders that affect the bowel. The disease is characterized by periods of clinical remission and relapse due to severe intestinal inflammation. Drug therapy of IBD is associated with unpleasant side effects. Further, efficacies of conventional drugs decrease with chronic use and this can represent a major difficulty in the long term management of IBD. However, in active IBD, leukocytes are elevated in the lesion they may be able to be a factor of IBD aggravation. Membrane filters column and leukocyte adsorbing beads have been developed which are direct blood perfusion systems for removing any desired level of leukocytes. Clinical studies with these two new models have shown good effects for active IBD. Clinical data suggest that leukocytapheresis might be an effective adjunct to therapy of IBD, to promote remission, taper conventional drug dosage and potentially should reduce the number of patients who require colectomy. The results may further understandings of the pathophysiology of IBD and this in turn should contribute to a more effective treatment of this disorder.

Anti-inflammatory effect of sugar-amino acid Maillard reaction products on intestinal inflammation model in vitro and in vivo. Carbohydr Res 2017; 449:47-58.

Abstract
The Maillard reaction is a nonenzymatic reaction between an amino acid and a reducing sugar that usually occurs upon heating. This reaction occurs routinely in cooking, generates numerous products, which are collectively referred to as Maillard reaction products (MRPs) contributing to aroma and color features. Advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) transformed from MRPs are participated in many types of inflammation reaction. In this study, various sugar-amino acid MRPs were prepared from three different amino acids (lysine, arginine, and glycine) and sugars (glucose, fructose, and galactose) for 1 h with heating at 121 °C. Treatment of lipopolysaccharide-stimulated RAW264.7 macrophages with the MRPs decreased nitric oxide (NO) expression compared to control without MRPs treatment. MRPs derived from lysine and galactose (Lys-Gal MRPs) significantly inhibited NO expression. The retentate fraction of Lys-Gal MRPs with cut-off of molecular weight of 3-10 kDa (LGCM) suppressed NO expression more effectively than did Lys-Gal MRPs. The anti-inflammatory effect of LGCM was evaluated using a co-culture system consisting of Caco-2 (apical side) and RAW264.7 or THP-1 (basolateral side) cells to investigate the gut inflammation reaction by stimulated macrophage cells. In this system, LGCM prevented a decreased transepithelial electrical resistance, and decreased both tumor necrosis factor-α production in macrophages and interleukin (IL)-8 and IL-1β mRNA expression in Caco-2 cells. In co-culture and in vivo dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis model study, we also observed the anti-inflammatory activity of LGCM.

Abstract
Disruption of intestinal homeostasis can lead to inflammatory bowel diseases endowed susceptibility genes and environmental factors affecting intestinal accumulation and activation of colitogenic phagocytes. Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) are immune cells that had been proposed to control innate and adaptive immunity through the massive secretion of type I interferon (IFN-I). However, the contribution of pDCs to the progression of intestinal inflammation remains unclear. Here we show a critical role of pDCs in the initiation of acute colonic inflammation using T-cell-independent acute colitis model with a selective ablation of pDCs. Although pDCs accumulated in the inflamed colon upon mucosal injury, deficiency of pDCs attenuated the development of acute colitis independent of IFN-I signaling, accompanied by the diminished colonic production of proinflammatory cytokines. Furthermore, deficiency of pDCs impaired the mobilization of colitogenic phagocytes into the inflamed colon possibly mediated by the abrogated mucosal production of C-C chemokine receptor 2 ligand. Thus, our findings highlight a critical role of pDCs in the induction of the colonic inflammation that regulates the colonic accumulation of inflammatory phagocytes leading to the initiation and exacerbation of acute colitis, and they may serve a key role in controlling gut mucosal immune homeostasis.

Abstract
Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) of the colon as a target site. Previous reports regarding the efficacy of α-mangostin (αMG) to inhibit nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) and mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) as well as relatively high distribution to the colon suggested the therapeutic potential of this compound in UC model. In dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced colitis mice (DSS mice), the disease activity index scores involving diarrhea, bloody stool, body weight reduction, and myeloperoxidase (MPO) activities of the esophagus and colon increased with the reduced colon length. Also histologic disturbances and changes of NF-κB and MAPK pathways including phosphorylation of IκB kinase, ERK1/2, SAPK/JNK and p38 were observed in the colon of the DSS mice. However, all of these impaired conditions in the DSS mice were restored by αMG treatment, and the intestinal metabolism of αMG decreased, increasing its distribution to the colons in the DSS mice compared with the control mice. All of these results suggest that high distribution of αMG in the colon might attenuate DSS-induced colitis by inhibiting NF-κB and MAPK pathways in the colon.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this investigation is to study the lived experiences of female postsecondary students diagnosed with inflammatory bowel disease and/or irritable bowel syndrome. METHODS Nine women between the ages of 18 and 26 years were recruited to participate in this study. Participants completed an informed consent form and background questionnaire before completing a semi-structured one-on-one interview. This interview explored the lived experiences of these individuals in relation to condition management. RESULTS Three salient themes that emerged from the data included (1) it can add to my life; (2) why me: my condition runs my life; and (3) I'm doing the best I can with what I have. The salient theme of I'm doing the best I can with what I have, the theme addressed in this article, was subdivided into adaptive and maladaptive coping behaviors. Reasons for the use of these behaviors included to avoid triggers or flare-ups/harmful effects, to achieve instant relief/pleasure, to respond to environmental pressures, and to become accustomed to dealing with the everyday hassles of their conditions. CONCLUSION Community health nurses may become part of the solution to help women with inflammatory bowel disease and irritable bowel syndrome find more adaptive coping behaviors. Other implications are discussed.

Abstract
The early phase of life represents a critical period for the development of an organism. Interestingly, early life experiences are able to influence the development of the gastrointestinal tract and the reactivity to colonic inflammatory stress. We recently demonstrated that adult male rats exposed to low doses of corticosterone during lactation (CORT-nursed rats) are protected against experimental colitis induced by the intracolonic infusion of 2,4,6-trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid (TNBS). Based on these interesting results, we wanted to better investigate which cellular actors could be involved in the protection of CORT-nursed rats from TNBS-induced experimental colitis. Therefore, in the present work, we focused our attention on different factors implicated in GR-mediated anti-inflammatory effect. To address this issue, colonic tissues, collected from control and CORT-nursed healthy animals and from control and CORT-nursed colitic rats, were processed and the following inflammatory factors were evaluated: the expression of (i) glucocorticoid receptors (GR), (ii) glucocorticoid-induced leucine zipper (GILZ), (iii) phospho-p65NF-κB, (iv) the pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1β and TNF-α, (v) the prokineticins PK2 and PK2L and (vi) their receptors PKR1 and PKR2. We found that adult CORT-nursed rats, in comparison to controls, showed increased expression of colonic GR and reduced expression of pro-inflammatory molecules (IL-1β, TNF-α, PK2 and PK2L) in response to inflammatory colitis. The observed changes were associated with an increase in GILZ colonic expression and with a reduction in phospo-p65NF-κB colonic expression.

Abstract
Crohn's disease (CD) is an inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) with uncertain etiology. Biologic agents have revolutionized the treatment of CD but nonresponders remain a challenge. Ustekinumab is an interleukin 12/23p40 inhibitor that was recently found effective in treating CD. We reviewed the current literature regarding the efficacy of ustekinumab in treating CD and concluded that ustekinumab is a novel, promising and relatively safe agent for the treatment of moderate to severe CD. Additional data from randomized controlled studies and real-life cohorts are pending.

Abstract
The bacterial colonisation is established immediately after birth, through direct contact with maternal microbiota, and may be influenced during lactation. There is emerging evidence indicating that quantitative and qualitative changes on gut microbiota contribute to alterations in the mucosal activation of the immune system, leading to intra- or extra-intestinal diseases. A balance between pathogenic and beneficial microbiota throughout childhood and adolescence is important to gastrointestinal health, including protection against pathogens, inhibition of pathogens, nutrient processing (synthesis of vitamin K), stimulation of angiogenesis, and regulation of host fat storage. Probiotics can promote an intentional modulation of intestinal microbiota favouring the health of the host. A review is presented on the modulation of intestinal microbiota on prevention, and adjuvant treatment of some paediatric gastrointestinal diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study was undertaken to evaluate demographics, clinical manifestations, laboratory findings and outcomes of children with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in Turkey. METHODS We analyzed the medical records of 127 children diagnosed with IBD (under 18 years old) between January 2004 and January 2012 in 8 pediatric gastroenterology centers. RESULTS Of the 127 patients, 90 (70.9%) suffered from ulcerative colitis (UC), 29 (22.8%) from Crohn's disease (CD), and 8 (6.3%) from IBD unclassified. The mean age of the 127 patients was 11.6 ± 4.1 years, and 11.8% of the patients were below 5 years old. Of the patients, 49.6% were male, and males were more predominant in patients with CD than in those with UC (72.4% vs. 42.2%, P = 0.008; a male/female ratio of 2.62 in CD, P = 0.0016). Approximately one fifth of the patients had extra-intestinal manifestations and 13.3% of the patients had associated diseases. Extraintestinal manifestations and associated diseases were more common in early onset disease [P = 0.017, odds ratio (OR) = 4.02; P = 0.03, OR = 4.1]. Of the patients, 15% had normal laboratory parameters including anemia, high platelet count, hypoalbuminemia, hypoferritinemia, and high sedimentation rate. Area under receiver operation characteristics was used to predict pancolitis in patients with UC. The values of C-reactive protein, sedimentation rate and pediatric ulcerative colitis activity were 0.61 (P = 0.06), 0.66 (P = 0.01) and 0.76 (P = 0.0001), respectively. Four (4.4%) patients with UC underwent colectomy, and finally two (1.5%, 95% confidence interval: 0-3.7%) patients died from primary disease or complications. CONCLUSIONS IBD is an increasing clinical entity in Turkey. Features of IBD are similar to those in other populations, but prospective multicenter studies are needed to analyze the true incidence of IBD in Turkish children.

Abstract
This review will focus on published human studies on oxidative stress and DNA damage in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), both ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease, assessing their role in the pathophysiology of these diseases. Search was performed over PubMed and ScienceDirect databases to identify relevant bibliography, using keywords including "oxidative stress," "DNA damage," "IBD," and "oxidative DNA damage." Whether as cause or effect, mechanisms underlying oxidative stress have the potential to condition the course of various pathologies, particularly those driven by inflammatory scenarios. IBDs are chronic inflammatory relapsing conditions. Oxidative stress has been associated with some of the characteristic clinical features exhibited in IBD, namely tissue injury and fibrosis, and also to the ulcerative colitis-associated colorectal cancer. The possible influence of oxidative stress over therapeutic behavior and response, as well as their contribution to the oxidative burden and consequences, is also addressed. Due to the high prevalence and incidence of IBD worldwide, and also to its associated morbidity, complications, and disease and treatment costs, it is of paramount importance to better understand the pathophysiology of these diseases.

Autonomic Dysfunction Correlates with Clinical and Inflammatory Activity in Patients with Crohn's Disease. Inflamm Bowel Dis 2015; 21:2320-6.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Autonomic dysfunction has been implicated in Crohn's disease (CD). We aimed to investigate heart rate variability (HRV) as a marker of possible autonomic imbalance in patients with CD. METHODS Thirty patients with CD and 30 age- and gender-matched healthy controls were enrolled in a prospective cohort study and underwent HRV study. Anxiety level was scored using the STAI questionnaire and CD clinical activity was assessed by Harvey-Bradshaw index. Blood tests including inflammatory markers were obtained for all participants. RESULTS CD subjects had lower mean blood pressure (85.51 ± 11.07 mm Hg, 91.51 ± 6.99, P = 0.015) and albumin and significantly higher CRP and IL-6 compared with controls (P < 0.002 for all comparisons). Mean HRV values of very low-frequency power and low-frequency power components were significantly lower among CD subjects (P = 0.038 and 0.027, respectively), implying a predominant sympathetic tone. Anxiety level scores were significantly higher among patients with CD for both state anxiety (P = 0.001) and trait anxiety (P < 0.0001). However, patients with active disease had similar anxiety scores as patients in remission, yet had a significantly lower BMI, lower albumin level, and higher CRP and IL-6 levels (P < 0.05 for all comparisons). Moreover, despite similar anxiety scores, patients with active disease had higher pulse rate (P = 0.02) and lower HRV indexes, which correlated with albumin levels(r = 0.7, P = 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Although patients with CD have higher anxiety levels compared with controls, they exhibit depressed HRV independent of this anxiety state and in direct correlation with disease activity and inflammatory markers. These observations suggest an inherent imbalance of autonomic function associated with active inflammation.

Abstract
Background The aim of this study was to investigate the mechanisms underlying the therapeutic effect of Uygur medicine KJA on UC in a rat model. Methods UC was induced in Wistar rats by application of 2, 4-dinitrochlorobenzene and acetic acid and were then treated with three different doses of KJA, and normal saline as control. After treatment for 20 days, the gene expression profile of colonic tissue was analyzed by microarray and verified by quantitative real-time RT-PCR. Results Animals treated with the three different doses of KJA were compared with normal saline controls, wherein microarray analysis identified 1991, 2163, and 1677 differentially expressed genes respectively, of which 444 genes were raised and 670 genes were decrease spliced together in the three doses tested. The KEGG pathway analyses found commonly raised genes related to several different biological functions. Interesting genes included TRL2, IL-1β, TGF-β1, and NF-κB were confirmed by quantitative PCR. Conclusions The therapeutic effect of KJA on UC is likely explained by specific effects on the expression of genes, which are the effector molecules known to be involved in the development of UC. Further studies on differentially expressed genes will help explain the mechanism of action of Uygur medicine KJA.

Abstract
Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are at an increased risk of developing colorectal cancer (CRC), and key contributing factors include chronic colonic inflammation and the extent and duration of disease. This increase in risk is more likely to result from chronic inflammation of the colonic mucosa than from any clearly defined genetic predisposition. However, globally, the true magnitude of this risk is debatable, since results from different studies are heterogeneous in terms of geographical and methodological variables. The prevalence of IBD-related CRC in the Asia-Pacific region ranges from 0.3% to 1.8% and a recent study found that the cumulative incidence of IBD-related CRC is comparable to that in Western countries. However, the CRC mortality rate in the Asia-Pacific region is on the rise compared with that in Western countries, and a few Asian countries show particularly rapid upward trends in CRC incidence. Although our understanding of the molecular and clinical basis for IBD-related CRC has improved substantially, our means of prevention, endoscopic surveillance, chemoprevention, and prophylactic surgery remain modest at best. Furthermore, published data on IBD-related CRC in the Asia-Pacific region is lacking, and this review addresses many aspects including epidemiology, natural history, etiopathogenesis, morphology, and biological behaviors of IBD-related CRC and sporadic CRC in the Asia-Pacific region. In this review, we will also discuss the risk factors for CRC in IBD patients, endoscopic technology screening, and surveillance programs and management strategies for IBD-related CRC.

Abstract
The pathogenesis of Crohn's disease (CD) is still unknown, but the involvement of the olfactory system in CD appears possible. No study to date has systematically assessed the olfactory function in CD patients. We investigated the olfactory function in CD patients in active (n = 31) and inactive disease (n = 27) and in a control group of age- and sex-matched healthy subjects (n = 35). Subjective olfactory testing was applied using the Sniffin' Sticks test. For olfactory testing, olfactory event-related potentials (OERPs) were obtained with a 4-channel olfactometer using phenyl ethyl alcohol (PEA) and hydrogen sulfide (H(2)S). Carbon dioxide (CO(2)) was employed as control stimulus, and chemosomatosensory event-related potentials (CSSERPs) were registered. Results of the Sniffin' Sticks test revealed significantly different olfactory hedonic judgment with increased olfactory hedonic estimates for pleasant odorants in CD patients in active disease compared with healthy subjects. A statistical trend was found toward lower olfactory thresholds in CD patients. In objective olfactory testing, CD patients showed lower amplitudes of OERPs and CSSERPs. Additionally, OERPs showed significantly shorter N1- and P2 latencies following stimulation of the right nostril with H(2)S in CD patients in inactive disease compared with controls. Our study demonstrates specific abnormalities of olfactory perception in CD patients.

Abstract
Long-standing inflammation has emerged as a hallmark of neoplastic transformation of epithelial cells and may be a limiting factor of successful conventional tumor therapies. A complex milieu composed of distinct stromal and immune cells, soluble factors and inflammatory mediators plays a crucial role in supporting and promoting various types of cancers. An augmented inflammatory response can predispose a patient to colorectal cancer (CRC). Common risk factors associated with CRC development include diet and lifestyle, altered intestinal microbiota and commensals, and chronic inflammatory bowel diseases. Cysteinyl leukotrienes are potent inflammatory metabolites synthesized from arachidonic acid and have a broad range of functions involved in the etiology of various pathologies. This review discusses the important role of cysteinyl leukotriene signaling in linking inflammation and CRC.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Chemotherapy-induced alimentary mucositis is an extremely common condition that is caused by a breakdown of the mucosal barrier. It occurs in between 40 - 100% of cancer patients depending on the treatment regimen. Symptoms typically include pain from oral ulceration, vomiting and diarrhoea. Alimentary mucositis often necessitates chemotherapy reductions or treatment breaks, overall potentially compromising survival outcomes. Consequently, alimentary mucositis creates a burden not only on patients' quality of life but also on healthcare costs. Despite this, currently, there is no clinically effective localised/pharmacological therapy intervention strategy to prevent alimentary mucositis. AREAS COVERED Over recent years, a number of novel pharmacotherapy agents have been trialed in various preclinical and clinical settings. This critical review will therefore provide an overview of emerging pharmacotherapies for the treatment of alimentary mucositis following chemotherapy with particular emphasis on studies published in the last 2 years. A Pubmed literature search was conducted to identify eligible articles published before 30 November 2013 and each article was reviewed by all authors. All articles were written in English. EXPERT OPINION Currently, there is no clinically effective localised therapeutic intervention strategy to prevent the condition. New emerging areas of research have recently been proposed to play key roles in the development of alimentary mucositis and these areas may provide researchers and clinicians with new research directions. Hopefully this will continue, and evidence-based informed guidelines can be produced to improve clinical practice management of this condition.
