Cyclic Nucleotide Concentrations of Rectal Mucosa in Ulcerative Colitis

Abstract: The concentrations of cyclic nucleotides (CN) were examined in rectal mucosal biopsy specimens from 52 patients with active ulcerative colitis (UC) and 10 healthy controls. The three degrees of inflammation, evaluated macroscopically by endoscopy and by morphometry in the specimens by estimating the cellular infiltration of the lamina propria, corresponded nicely with each other. The proliferative-regenerative morphologic changes in the rectal mucosa were graded qualitatively and quantitatively in three groups… Show more

“…As previously discussed, activating mutations in GC-C are associated with IBD, supporting the observation that higher levels of mucosal cGMP are maintained in inflammatory states ( 10 , 16 , 250 ). An animal model of a gain-of-function mutation in GC-C confirmed these clinical observations ( 13 ).…”
