Dynamics of the mucosa-associated flora in ulcerative colitis patients during remission and clinical relapse.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The colonic mucosa-associated flora (MAF) in patients with active ulcerative colitis (UC) (n = 13) was investigated by examining 16S rRNA gene signatures during remission and relapse against levels for controls (n = 5). Baseline reduction, temporal instability, and decrease of bacterial richness toward relapse were observed for UC patients, whereas the MAF for controls was stable over time.

Crypt cell production rate (CCPR) has been measured by a stathmokinetic technique in the relapse and remission phases of ulcerative proctocolitis. Rectal biopsies were obtained from eight patients with colitis in relapse, 14 patients with colitis in remission, and 14 patients with histologically normal mucosa. Biopsies were maintained in organ culture for 16 hours and were then exposed to vincr...
