Metallothioneins in Inflammatory Bowel Diseases: Importance in Pathogenesis and Potential Therapy Target by Anna Socha-Banasiak, Patrycja Sputa-Grzegrzółka, Jędrzej Grzegrzółka, Krzysztof Pacześ, Piotr Dzięgiel, Beata Sordyl, Hanna Romanowicz, Elżbieta Czkwianianc

“…In the treatment of patients with Crohn’s disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), it is increasingly common to use biological drugs that selectively affect individual components of the inflammatory cascade. However, administering the medicines currently available does not always result in obtaining and maintaining remission, and it may also lead to the development of resistance to a given agent over time. …”
