pubmed:abstractText |
Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) is an important cytokine involved in the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease. The monoclonal antibody to TNF-alpha, infliximab, is effective in treating Crohn's disease. Preclinical studies suggest the importance of TNF-alpha in treating ulcerative colitis (UC). We report the effectiveness of infliximab for UC and examine factors predictive of response to medication.
