Almost all people with ulcerative colitis (UC) make antibodies against a protein dimer called integrin αvβ6 on intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) lining the colon. People without UC do not. These “autoantibodies” often occur a decade before UC diagnosis, suggesting they may play a causal role very early in UC onset. Indeed, αvβ6 is known to […]
Despite intense research efforts on Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (IBD), there are no treatments that result in a sustained return to normal. Thus, there is an urgent need to develop innovative treatment approaches. Applying lessons learned from cancer immunotherapy, we have developed a novel treatment aimed at curing IBD: injectable Colon Organoid Immune Niche (COIN). Using […]
Monogenic forms of Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) offer valuable insights into key regulators of intestinal inflammation. Building on our previous advancements in characterizing very early onset IBD (VEO-IBD) patients with monogenic CASP8 and RIPK1 deficiencies, we aim to elucidate the key factors and molecular mechanisms of disrupted cell death responses (necroptosis) in these life-threatening conditions.
