Experiencia local con natalizumab en pacientes con enfermedad de Crohn refractaria a anti-TNF: Casos clínicos

Abstract: Natalizumab for the treatment of Crohn's disease. Report of three cases . Aunque la incidencia y prevalencia de la EC en Chile es aún desconocida, recientemente demostramos que el número de casos ha aumentado durante las últimas décadas 2 . Los objetivos terapéuticos son disminuir la inflamación e inducir la remisión clínica, endoscópica y radiológica de la enfermedad. Para lograr esto, la estrategia más efectiva es el uso de terapia biológica (TB) dado su rol en neutralizar vías inmunológicas específicas invo… Show more

“…The α4 subunit of the integrins α4β1 and α4β7 expressed by leukocytes binds to vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM-1) and MAdCAM-1. It blocks leukocyte adhesion and migration from blood vessels into inflamed tissue [27,28]; -Integrin inhibitor α4β7: Vedolizumab is a humanized monoclonal antibody directed against the intestinal integrin α4β7, which is expressed on T and natural killer (NK) cells and immune cell subsets. The binding of this integrin to MAdCAM-1 allows lymphocytes to enter inflamed tissue.…”
