GI highlights from the literature

Wilson's disease (WD) is an autosomal recessive disorder, which develops due to gene mutations in the copper transporter ATPase copper-transporting [beta] (Atp7b), impairing copper excretion into bile and resulting in copper accumulation in the liver. [...]novel medical therapies for this cohort would be clinically useful. Overall, these data suggest that inflammasome function is vital in driving colitis-associated cancer with impaired O-glycosylation.\n The presented observational study indicates that vitamin D status is a potential independent risk factor for worse IBD outcomes and should therefore be monitored and treated.
