Aconitate decarboxylase 1 (ACOD1; also known as IRG-1) is the ubiquitous source of the metabolite itaconate, which dampens inflammasome activation by preventing HIF1α production of IL-1β and prevents TNF production through NRF2 activation…

BACKGROUND The gut microbiome is central to Crohn’s disease (CD) pathogenesis but the relative contribution of different environmental factors to disease compositional variation is unknown…

INTRODUCTION: We aimed to investigate the relationship between consumption of ultra-processed foods (UPFs) and: 1) active symptomatic disease and 2) intestinal inflammation in a cohort of adults living with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)…

BACKGROUND: Cancer is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in persons with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). We evaluated temporal trends and relative risks of intestinal and extra-intestinal cancers among persons with IBD and matched controls…

Anti-granulocyte/macrophage-colony stimulating factor autoantibody (GM-CSF AuAB) has been identified before the onset of Crohn’s Disease (CD) and is associated with an increase in complicated disease. However, its connection to the gut microbiome, a key factor in CD progression, remains unclear…

Although the cause of Crohn’s disease (CD) is unknown, recent studies have identified a number of biomarkers associated with the risk of developing CD in healthy at-risk individuals…

Incidence of Crohn's disease(CD) is increasing worldwide. Previous studies suggest that exposure to air pollutants may contribute to the risk of CD…

The incidence of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is increasing globally. Epidemiological studies suggest an association between consumption of ultra-processed foods (UPFs) and IBD risk…

Granulocyte Macrophage-Colony Stimulating Factor (GM-CSF) maintains mononuclear phagocytes (MNP) and supports intestinal immune homeostasis. Anti-GM-CSF autoantibodies (aGMAbs) are found in approx. 25% of all Crohn’s disease (CD) patients…

SOCIETY: AGA This session highlights the latest research on novel prediction models in IBD as well as the role of the fecal microbiome and imaging in IBD…
