FOXP3-engineered regulatory T cells restore intestinal barrier integrity in Crohn's disease enteroids via PDGF-AA

Neetu Saini, Babajide A. Ojo, Niharika Bozza…·Rosa Bacchetta

FOXP3-engineered regulatory T cells enhance intestinal barrier function in Crohn's disease enteroids via the PDGF-AA-PDGFR axis, independent of their immunosuppressive role.

Epithelial stem cell-derived chemokines track clinical remission in inflammatory bowel disease in a disease-specific manner

Sanmi E. Alake, Anil Hari Kadam, Traci Jester…·Babajide A. Ojo

The paper shows that chemokines in UC organoids correlate with clinical remission and treatment response, but not in Crohn's disease.

Patient-derived colon epithelial organoids reveal lipid-related metabolic dysfunction in pediatric ulcerative colitis

Babajide A. Ojo, Ying Zhu, Lyong Heo…·Michael J. Rosen

This study uses patient-derived colon organoids to identify lipid-related metabolic dysfunction in pediatric ulcerative colitis and shows that PPAR-α inhibition can alleviate metabolic and inflammatory features.
