Scientists have finally discovered the cause of severe inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), a chronic condition affecting millions worldwide. The cause is a genetic mutation that impairs the function of a protein called LRRC31, which regulates the immune response in the gut. The discovery could lead to new treatments and diagnostics for IBD and a better understanding of how the gut microbiome influences health and disease. #IBD #LRRC31 #GutHealth

The #IBD Community has a lot of Influencers (I call them "Crohnfluencers" 💩) and on the one hand I think it's good showing the illness, so people can see it's normal, but on the other hand it feels like a lot of 'em are "enjoying" the attention and sympathy they get for being ill and I don't think that's a good way to deal with it and definitely not healthy

Super interesting. Survivors of the Black Death (1346-1356) may have had a mutation of ERAP2 (antigen presentation) that decreased mortality from Y. pestis but, long term, may have lead to increased risk of autoimmune disease, such as #IBD.
Evolution in action.

Molecular atlas for Crohn's disease & ulcerative colitis in patients receiving anti-TNF.

'We describe a therapeutic atlas for Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) following anti-tumour necrosis factor (TNF) therapy. We generated ~1 million single-cell transcriptomes, organised into 109 cell states, from 216 gut biopsies from 38 patients and three controls, revealing disease- and therapy-specific differences.'

Isn't it cool that one of my biggest concerns about quitting my full time job is if my new health insurance through my spouse's employer will seamlessly transition and pay for an #IBD medication I've been taking for 7 years? They legitimately can be like, nah, we're not going to cover that because reasons.

Inflammatory bowel disease, a most troublesome plight
May soon have new treatments, thanks to recent research insight
It's all about the gut immune cells, so researchers have found
Uncovering the key to stopping IBD's ongoing sound
Harnessing the power of these cells to fight our ailments
Will open promising doors and help us through our challenges
