New approaches along the IBD course: diet, tight control and stem cells

Important studies published in 2018 highlight novel therapeutic strategies along the disease course of IBD, including potential specific dietary modifications at early stages and treatment with adipose-derived stem cells in perianal Crohn’s disease. A treat-to-target approach that involves proactive serial monitoring of inflammatory biomarkers can assist in timely treatment escalation and promises improved patient outcomes.

Low-protein diet in cancer: ready for prime time?

Diet has a recognized influence on cancer development and progression. However, the effect of diet modifications on the immune system remains elusive. Rubio-Patiño and colleagues provide evidence that a low-protein diet enhances the anticancer immune response in tumour-bearing mice, and highlight the potential of this diet intervention in patients with cancer.
