Massively multiplexed serology reveals autoantibodies in inflammatory bowel disease, suggesting potential therapeutic insights.

To explore the association of autoantibodies with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), particularly focusing on pediatric ulcerative colitis.
Analyzed serum samples from pediatric and adult IBD patient groups using various proteomic methods.
Utilized human proteome microarrays and PhIP-Seq technology to profile antibody repertoires.
Investigated autoantibody responses to pentose phosphate shunt pathway proteins.
BD patients showed frequent autoantibodies against pentose phosphate shunt proteins.
In pediatric ulcerative colitis, nearly all patients exhibited IgG autoantibodies against specific proteins.
The study identified significant immune responses to Epstein-Barr virus peptides.

Hulett et al. (2025) studied this question.
