Background: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) affects millions of people in North America, and patients with IBD have a high incidence of psychiatric comorbidities (PC). The genetic mechanisms underlying the link are, in general, poorly understood.
Materials And Methods: A transcriptome-wide association study (TWAS) was performed using genetically regulated gene expression profiles imputed from the genetic profiles of 240 IBD patients in the Manitoba IBD Cohort Study. The imputation was performed using the 44 non-diseased human tissue-specific reference models from the GTEx database. Linear modeling and gene set enrichment analysis were performed to identify genes and pathways that are significantly associated with IBD patients with PC compared to IBD alone in each of the 44 non-diseased human tissues. Finally, an enrichment map was generated to investigate networks of the enriched gene sets associated with IBD patients with PC.
Results: The genes RBPMS in skeletal muscle (adjusted p = 0.05), KCNA5 in the cerebellar hemisphere of the brain (adjusted p = 0.09), GSR, SMIM34A, and LIPT2 in the frontal cortex of the brain (adjusted p = 0.09 for each) were the top genetically regulated genes with a suggestive association with IBD patients with PC. We identified three gene set networks, which include gene sets and pathways with a suggestive association with IBD patients with PC: one with 7 gene sets overlapping in apolipoprotein B mRNA editing subunit genes, one with 3 gene sets including pigmentation gene sets, and the other one with 3 gene sets including peptidyl tyrosine phosphorylation regulation related gene sets.
Conclusions: Our TWAS analysis has identified genes and pathways with a suggestive association with IBD patients with PC. These findings can be potentially used for illustrating the mechanism of developing PC in the patients with IBD and developing diagnosis tool or drug targets for IBD patients with PC.

Hereditary colorectal cancer syndromes and inflammatory bowel disease: results from a registry-based study.

Hereditary Digestive Tract Tumors Unit, Fondazione IRCCS Istituto Nazionale Dei Tumori, Via Giacomo Venezian 1, 20133, Milan, Italy.
Purpose: In this study, we investigated the progression of high-grade dysplasia (HGD)/CRC in patients with hereditary colorectal cancer syndromes (HCSS) and concomitant inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs).
Methods: We described the natural history of a series of patients with confirmed diagnosis of hereditary colorectal cancer syndromes (HCCSs) and concomitant IBDs who were referred to the Hereditary Digestive Tumors Registry at the Fondazione IRCCS Istituto Nazionale dei Tumori of Milan.
Results: Between January 1989 and April 2024, among 450 patients with APC-associated polyposis and 1050 patients with Lynch syndrome (LS), we identified six patients with IBDs (five with UC, one with ileal penetrating CD) and concomitant HCCSs (five with LS, one with APC-associated polyposis).
SAA3 deficiency exacerbates intestinal fibrosis in DSS-induced IBD mouse model.

Intestinal fibrosis, as a late-stage complication of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), leads to bowel obstruction and requires surgical intervention, significantly lowering the quality of life of affected patients. SAA3, a highly conserved member of the serum amyloid A (SAA) apolipoprotein family in mice, is synthesized primarily as an acute phase reactant in response to infection, inflammation and trauma. An increasing number of evidence suggests that SAA3 exerts a vital role in the fibrotic process, even though the underlying mechanisms are not yet fully comprehended.

Background: Upadacitinib is a selective Janus kinase (JAK) 1 inhibitor approved by the Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of moderate-to-severe inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). We aimed to establish and validate a method for determining Upadacitinib in patients with IBD by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method.
Methods: The mobile phase was 0.
Safety and Efficacy of Fecal Microbiota, Live-jslm (REBYOTA®), for the Prevention of Recurrent Clostridioides difficile Infection in Participants With Inflammatory Bowel Disease in PUNCH CD3-OLS.

Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN, USA.
Background: Fecal microbiota, live-jslm (RBL; REBYOTA®), is the first single-dose, broad consortia, microbiota-based live biotherapeutic approved by the US Food and Drug Administration to prevent recurrent Clostridioides difficile infection (rCDI) in adults following standard-of-care antimicrobials. Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a common risk factor for rCDI, yet patients with IBD are often excluded from prospective trials. This subgroup analysis of PUNCH CD3-OLS (NCT03931941) evaluated the safety and efficacy of RBL in participants with rCDI and IBD.

To assess nutritional intake of patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), a disease-specific food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) was developed: the Groningen IBD Nutritional Questionnaire (GINQ-FFQ). Aim of this study was to assess the relative validity of the GINQ-FFQ. Between 2019 and 2022, participants of the 1000IBD cohort were included and filled out a 3-day food diary and the GINQ-FFQ.
