713e Longitudinal Analysis in A HNF4AΔIEC Mouse Colitis Model Reveals that Preclinical Flaring is Associated with Increased Akkermansia muciniphila Levels in the Gut Microbiome
As inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) develop, the host’s homeostatic relationship with their microbiota changes. Early “preclinical” stages of colitis are relatively understudied, especially with respect to host-microbiota interactions. Intestinal epit… Continue reading
713f Histologic Activity in Ulcerative Colitis Patients Achieving Endoscopic Healing is Associated with Higher Rate of Relapse and a Distinct Mucosal Microbial and Transcriptional Profile
Histologic remission (HR) in ulcerative colitis (UC) has been associated with better clinical outcomes. However, this therapeutic target is hard to achieve with the available medications. We aim to assess the relapse-free survival (RFS) of patients wit… Continue reading
