Background: Liquid-Liquid Phase Separation (LLPS) is a process involved in the formation of established organelles and various condensates that lack membranes; however, the relationship between LLPS and Ulcerative Colitis (UC) remains unclear.

Aims: This study aimed to comprehensively clarify the correlation between ulcerative colitis (UC) and liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS).

Objectives: In this study, bioinformatics analyses and public databases were applied to screen and validate key genes associated with LLPS in UC.

Unlabelled: Malakoplakia is a rare granulomatous condition that occurs due to defective lysosomal digestion during phagocytosis and can mimic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) or malignancies, particularly in immunosuppressed patients. We report the case of a 62-year-old male with IgG4-related orbitopathy, who developed persistent diarrhoea and colonic lesions 6 weeks after receiving rituximab therapy for nephrotic syndrome secondary to membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis. Colonoscopy revealed pancolitis with mucosal granularity, loss of vascular pattern, and small nodules, raising initial suspicion for IBD.

Internal herniation through the foramen of Winslow (FoW) is a rare, life-threatening diagnosis. We present a case of intestinal obstruction due to herniation of the ileum, cecum, appendix, and ascending colon through the FoW. We reduced the herniation using a small colotomy and preserved the entirety of the bowel.

The global phenomenon of cyanobacterial bloom pollution is spreading globally due to climate change and eutrophication. It is well established that harmful cyanobacteria produce a wide range of toxins including microcystin-LR (MC-LR), a cyclic heptapeptide toxin known to damage various organs. The intestinal tract is the main site of MC-LR absorption and one of the targets susceptible to toxicity.
