Project description:We used microarrays to identify mucosal gene signatures predictive of response to infliximab (IFX) in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and to gain more insight into the pathogenesis of IBD. Keywords: drug response and treatment effect Mucosal biopsies were obtained at endoscopy in actively inflamed mucosa from 61 IBD patients (24 ulcerative colitis (UC), 19 Crohnâs colitis (CDc) and 18 Crohnâs ileitis (CDi)), refractory to corticosteroids and/or immunosuppression, before and 4-6 weeks after (except for 1 CDc patient) their first infliximab infusion and in normal mucosa from 12 control patients (6 colon and 6 ileum). The patients were classified for response to infliximab based on endoscopic and histologic findings at 4-6 weeks after first infliximab treatment. Total RNA was isolated from intestinal mucosal biopsies, labelled and hybridized to Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Arrays.
Project description:Mucosal-luminal interface (MLI) samples were collected from a cohort of children with new-onset IBD and microbial cells were harvested and processed for metaproteomic analysis. Deep metaproteomics data analysis was then performed for better understanding the MLI microbiota functions in the development of pediatric IBD.

Project description:Peripheral blood-derived macrophages were stimulated with viral-like particles isolated from colonic resections from patients with Crohn's disease (CD), ulcerative colitis (UC), or non-IBD controls diagnoses. RNAseq was performed to unbiasedly assess the transcriptional responses to these stimuli and revealed highly divergent macrophage transcriptional programs in response to non-IBD compared to IBD VLP.
Project description:We investigated the dynamics of DNA methylation in blood samples of IBD patients treated with infliximab and analyzed the predictive potential regarding therapy outcome.
Project description:We investigated the dynamics of gene expression in blood samples of IBD patients treated with infliximab and vedolizumab and analyzed the predictive potential regarding therapy outcome.
