Supplementation with BB536 was well tolerated and reduced UCDAI scores, EI and Mayo subscores after 8 weeks in Japanese patients with mild to moderately active UC.

SUMMARY:We previously reported that autoantibodies against carbonic anhydrase II and lactoferrin are frequently identified in patients with autoimmune-related pancreatitis. To clarify the role of carbonic anhydrase II and lactoferrin, we created animal models of autoimmune pancreatitis by immunizing neonatally thymectomized mice with carbonic anhydrase II and lactoferrin and also by transferring immunized spleen cells to nude mice. Neonatally thymectomized BALB/c mice were immunized with carbonic anhydrase II or lactoferrin followed by three booster injections
