The new molecules selectively reduced inflammatory signaling in human immune cells without affecting other immune pathways. Treatment with the molecules also reduced inflammation in mice with the ...

Engineers at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD), have developed a treatment for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that uses microscopic robots or microrobots coupled with green algae. The ...

A new study shows stimulating the vagus nerve in mice with colitis reduced stress-driven symptoms of inflammatory bowel disease by regulating SUMOylation, an immune response that triggers gut ...

University of British Columbia researchers have engineered gut bacteria that dim their fluorescent glow in the presence of ...

If you suffer from inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), a pill full of tiny algae robots may be just what you need. The bio-hybrid microrobots have already been shown to reduce symptoms and promote ...

For decades, patients with inflammatory bowel disease have reported a familiar and frustrating pattern: periods of intense ...

A "living glue" used by barnacles to attach to underwater surfaces could also seal gut wounds caused by inflammatory bowel disease ...

A chain of immune reactions in the gut—driven by a key signaling protein and a surge of white blood cells from the bone ...

The ‘TL1A’ messenger protein of the immune system triggers gut-to-bone marrow reaction, increasing the colorectal cancer risk ...
