Trillions of intestinal microbiota are essential to the permeability of orally administered drugs. However, identifying microbial-drug interactions remains challenging due to the highly variable composition of intestinal flora among individuals. Usin...
Butyric acid (BA) can potentially enhance the function of the intestinal barrier. However, the mechanisms by which BA protects the intestinal mucosal barrier remain to be elucidated. Given that the Ras homolog gene family, member A (RhoA)/Rho-associa...
BACKGROUND: Bowel-preserving local resection of early rectal cancer is less successful if the tumor infiltrates the muscularis propria as opposed to submucosal infiltration only. Magnetic resonance imaging currently lacks the spatial resolution to pr...

INTRODUCTION: Stool characteristics may change depending on the endoscopic activity of ulcerative colitis (UC). We developed a deep learning model using stool photographs of patients with UC (DLSUC) to predict endoscopic mucosal inflammation.
Cytokines have been identified as key contributors to the development of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), yet conventional treatments often prove inadequate and carry substantial side effects. Here, we present an innovative biohybrid robotic system,...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Image-enhanced endoscopy has attracted attention as a method for detecting inflammation and predicting outcomes in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC); however, the procedure requires specialist endoscopists. Artificial intelli...

BACKGROUNDS AND AIMS: Mucosal healing (MH) in inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) is an important landmark for clinical decision making. Artificial intelligence systems (AI) that automatically deliver the grade of endoscopic inflammation may solve mode...
Ulcerative colitis (UC) is an inflammatory bowel disease of unknown cause that typically affects the colon and rectum. Innate intestinal immunity, including macrophages, plays a significant role in the pathological development of UC. Using the CIBERS...
Crohn's disease (CD) arises from intricate intercellular interactions within the intestinal lamina propria. Our objective was to use single-cell RNA sequencing to investigate CD pathogenesis and explore its clinical significance. We identified a dist...
The aim of this study was to address the issue of differentiating between Mayo endoscopic subscore (MES) 0 and MES 1 using a deep learning model. A dataset of 492 ulcerative colitis (UC) patients who demonstrated MES improvement between January 2018 ...
