dc.description.abstractObjectives: Targeting tumor necrosis factor (TNF) with biologic agents, such as infliximab and adalimumab, is a widely used and effective therapeutic strategy in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Unfortunately, a significant number of patients fail to respond or lose response over time to these agents. Previous studies have defined multiple complex roles for canonical NF-kappa B signaling in the pathogenesis of IBD. However, preliminary evidence suggests that the lesser defined noncanonical NF-kappa B signaling pathway also contributes to disease pathogenesis and response to anti-TNF agents. The objective of this study was to evaluate this hypothesis in Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) patients. Design: A total of 27 subjects with IBD (19 with CD and 8 with UC) and 15 control subjects were tested. Clinical criteria, patient history, and endoscopic disease activity were factors used to categorize patients and define therapeutic response. Biopsy specimens were collected during colonoscopy and expression was determined for 88 target genes known to be associated with noncanonical NF-kappa B signaling and IBD. Results: Noncanonical NF-kappa B signaling was significantly upregulated in IBD patients and was associated with increased gastrointestinal inflammation, epithelial cell death, lymphocyte migration, and Nod-like receptor signaling. Furthermore, noncanonical NF-kappa B signaling was further upregulated in patients unresponsive to anti-TNF agents and was suppressed in responsive patients. MAP3K14, NFKB2, CCL19, CXCL12, and CXCL13 were significantly dysregulated, as were genes that encode pathway regulators, such as CYLD, NLRP12, and BIRC2/3. Conclusion: Our study identifies a previously uncharacterized role for the understudied noncanonical NF-kappa B signaling pathway in the pathogenesis of IBD and anti-TNF therapy responsiveness. The genes and pathways identified may ultimately prove useful in IBD management and could potentially be used as biomarkers of drug response.en
