Despite the advent of an age when "malignant" leukemia is cured by bone marrow transplantation, "benign" inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) are still intractable lifelong diseases. Why is it that once an IBD develops it lasts a long time? We propose that, the same as in the response to vaccination,
Background: Chronic inflammatory diseases are characterized by massive infiltration of innate and acquired immune cells in inflammatory sites. However, it remains unclear how these cells cooperate in the development of disease. Although bone marrow (BM) is a primary site for hematopoiesis of immune
Background: Although the clinical usefulness of leukocytapheresis for patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) has been reported as a selective removal therapy targeting pathogenic immune cells in blood circulation, it remains unclear whether colitogenic CD4 ฯฉ T cells continuously recirculate
