  • Systemic Inflammation in Preclinical Ulcerative Colitis
  • 2021
  • Ingår i: Gastroenterology. - : AGA Institute. - 0016-5085 .- 1528-0012. ; 161:5, s. 1526-1539.e9

    • Background & Aims: Preclinical ulcerative colitis is poorly defined. We aimed to characterize the preclinical systemic inflammation in ulcerative colitis, using a comprehensive set of proteins.Methods: We obtained plasma samples biobanked from individuals who developed ulcerative colitis later in life (n = 72) and matched healthy controls (n = 140) within a population-based screening cohort. We measured 92 proteins related to inflammation using a proximity extension assay. The biologic relevance of these findings was validated in an inception cohort of patients with ulcerative colitis (n = 101) and healthy controls (n = 50). To examine the influence of genetic and environmental factors on these markers, a cohort of healthy twin siblings of patients with ulcerative colitis (n = 41) and matched healthy controls (n = 37) were explored.Results: Six proteins (MMP10, CXCL9, CCL11, SLAMF1, CXCL11 and MCP-1) were up-regulated (P < .05) in preclinical ulcerative colitis compared with controls based on both univariate and multivariable models. Ingenuity Pathway Analyses identified several potential key regulators, including interleukin-1β, tumor necrosis factor, interferon-gamma, oncostatin M, nuclear factor-κB, interleukin-6, and interleukin-4. For validation, we built a multivariable model to predict disease in the inception cohort. The model discriminated treatment-naïve patients with ulcerative colitis from controls with leave-one-out cross-validation (area under the curve = 0.92). Consistently, MMP10, CXCL9, CXCL11, and MCP-1, but not CCL11 and SLAMF1, were significantly up-regulated among the healthy twin siblings, even though their relative abundances seemed higher in incident ulcerative colitis.Conclusions: A set of inflammatory proteins are up-regulated several years before a diagnosis of ulcerative colitis. These proteins were highly predictive of an ulcerative colitis diagnosis, and some seemed to be up-regulated already at exposure to genetic and environmental risk factors.

  • Translocation of capercaillie and black grouse from Sweden to central Europe : An evaluation of ongoing translocation projects
  • 2024
  • Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • During the last couple of decades there has been an increasing effort to reinforce and increase the populations of black grouse and capercaillie in several areas in Poland, Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands using translocated Swedish birds. Beginning in 2010, a total of 616 black grouse and 519 capercaillie have been captured in different parts of Sweden and translocated to populations in central Europe. The purpose of this report is to summarize the translocation projects in Sweden, investigate the potential effects on the source populations and lastly to evaluate how the progress of ongoing projects could be evaluated. To summarise, we have found that the current translocation projects of capercaillie and black grouse from Sweden are, in most respects, in accordance with the IUCN guidelines of translocation in conservation. However, we have identified three areas which we propose should be improved upon to better assess the success of a translocation project: better monitoring of the source population, analyse population viability of the recipient population from the start and lastly to improve the communica­tion between the translocation projects and the interested parties at the capture locations in Sweden. We believe that improving upon these three areas will provide a solid foundation for assessing the success of the ongoing translocation projects from the perspectives of both the source and recipient populations of capercaillie and black grouse, as well as the local human interests.

  • Mucosal Gene Transcript Signatures in Treatment Naïve Inflammatory Bowel Disease : A Comparative Analysis of Disease to Symptomatic and Healthy Controls in the European IBD-Character Cohort
  • 2022
  • Ingår i: Clinical and Experimental Gastroenterology. - : Dove Medical Press Ltd.. - 1178-7023. ; 15, s. 5-25
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Background: Studies of the mucosal transcriptomic landscape have given new insight into the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Recently, the predictive biomarker potential of gene expression signatures has been explored. To further investigate the mucosal gene expression in IBD, we recruited a cohort of treatment naïve patients and compared them to both symptomatic and healthy controls.Methods: Altogether, 323 subjects were included: Crohn's disease (N = 75), ulcerative colitis (N = 87) and IBD unclassified (N = 3). Additionally, there were two control groups: symptomatic controls (N = 131) and healthy controls (N = 27). Mucosal biopsies were collected during ileocolonoscopy and gene expression in inflamed and non-inflamed mucosa was explored. Gene expression profiling was performed using Agilent G3 Human Gene Expression 860K v3 One-Color microarray. We recorded information about treatment escalation to anti-TNF agents or surgery, and anti-TNF response, to explore predictive opportunities of the mucosal transcriptome.Results: Gene expression profiles in symptomatic controls in whom IBD had been excluded resembled that of IBD patients and diverged from that of healthy controls. In non-inflamed Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, gene set enrichment analysis revealed dysregulation of pathways involved in basic cellular biological processes. Mitochondria-associated pathways were dysregulated both in non-inflamed and inflamed Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis (>2.6 normalized enrichment scores <-1.8). Gene expression signatures of Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis did not predict time for treatment escalation (p = 0.175). No significant association was found between gene expression signatures and anti-TNF response.Conclusion: Non-inflamed samples are probably superior to inflamed samples when exploring gene expression signatures in IBD and might reveal underlying mechanisms central for disease initiation. The gene expression signatures of the control groups were related to if they were symptomatic or not, which may have important implications for future study designs.
