    Abstract Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs), chronic inflammatory disorders affecting the gastrointestinal tract, include Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. There are increasing clinical and experimental data showing that obesity, especially visceral adiposity, plays a substantial role in the pathogenesis of IBD. Obesity seems to be an important risk factor also for IBD disease severity and clinical outcomes. Visceral adipose tissue is an active multifunctional metabolic organ involved in lipid storage and immunological and endocrine activity. Bowel inflammation penetrates the surrounding adipose tissue along the mesentery. Mesenteric fat serves as a barrier to inflammation and controls immune responses to the translocation of gut bacteria. At the same time, mesenteric adipose tissue may be the principal source of cytokines and adipokines responsible for inflammatory processes associated with IBD. This review is particularly focusing on the potential role of adipokines in IBD pathogenesis and their possible use as promising therapeutic targets.

    Abstract Anemia is the most common extraintestinal systemic complication of inflammatory bowel disease. Iron deficiency anemia and anemia of chronic disease are among the most frequent types. Intestinal iron absorption is controlled by the activity of ferroportin. Cells with high expression of ferroportin include enterocytes, and also macrophages and hepatocytes. Iron homeostasis is controlled by the hepcidin-ferroportin axis. Hepcidin is a central regulator of iron metabolism and can also serve as a marker of systemic inflammation. During systemic inflammatory response, the synthesis of hepcidin increases, and hepcidin binds to ferroportin and inhibits its activity. Thus, iron is not absorbed from the bowel into the circulation and also remains sequestered in macrophages. Conversely, hepcidin synthesis is suppressed during conditions requiring increased iron intake for enhanced erythropoiesis, such as iron deficiency anemia or hypoxia. Here, ferroportin is not blocked, and iron is actively absorbed into the bloodstream and also released from the stores. Production of hepcidin is influenced by the status of total body iron stores, systemic inflammatory activity and erythropoietic activity. Oral iron therapy is limited in inflammatory bowel diseases due to ongoing gastrointestinal inflammation. It is less effective and may worsen the underlying disease. Therefore, the choice between oral and parenteral iron therapy must be made with caution. Oral iron would be ineffective at high hepcidin levels due to concurrent ferroportin blockage. Contrarily, low levels of hepcidin indicate that oral iron therapy should be successful. An understanding of hepcidin can help in understanding the body's reaction to iron depletion during the inflammatory process.

    Abstract Background: The additional value of azathioprine concomitant treatment on infliximab pharmacokinetics in children is not well described yet.
    Aims: In the present study, we aimed to describe the relationship between thiopurine metabolite levels, infliximab trough levels, anti-IFX antibody formation, and clinical and laboratory markers of disease activity in pediatric patients with Crohn's disease, and to assess non-adherence.
    Methods: Data were collected prospectively during repeated visits from pediatric patients followed for Crohn's disease in two Czech pediatric inflammatory bowel disease centers between January 2016 and June 2017. Thiopurine metabolites (6-thioguanine and 6-methylmercaptopurine) were measured by high-performance liquid chromatography. Infliximab trough levels and anti-IFX antibody serum levels were measured routinely by ELISA. The risk of loss of response to infliximab therapy was also assessed.
    Results: A significant association between infliximab serum levels and 6-thioguanine erythrocyte levels was observed when tested as categorical variables (63 patients, 321 observations). To predict infliximab levels > 5 µg/mL, we propose a 6-thioguanine cutoff of 278 pmol/8 × 10
    Conclusion: Thiopurine metabolite monitoring in pediatric patients with Crohn's disease is useful when optimizing combination therapy. Pediatric patients with undetectable 6-thioguanine levels are more likely to lose response to infliximab therapy. When targeting optimal infliximab levels, the 6-thioguanine cutoff levels in children appear to be higher than in adults.

    Abstract Aim: The aim of this study was to compare changes in serum hepcidin levels in paediatric patients with inflammatory bowel disease during therapy and correlate them with markers of iron metabolism, inflammation and type of treatment.
    Methods: Children with newly diagnosed Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) were included in this longitudinal study. Blood and stool samples were collected to assess levels of serum hepcidin and markers of iron metabolism parameters and inflammation. The parameters were examined before treatment (baseline levels) and compared with levels in the follow-up period during maintenance therapy (mean follow-up of 39 months after diagnosis).
    Results: Patients with CD (n = 30) had higher serum hepcidin levels (expressed as a median and interquartile range) at diagnosis than subjects with UC (n = 13). These levels significantly decreased during the follow-up (from 36.5 (11.5-79.6) to 2.1 (0.9-6.7) ng/mL). In contrast, no significant serum hepcidin level changes were observed in the UC patients (5.4 (3.4-16.6) vs. 4.8 (0.9-8.1) ng/mL). While hepcidin level changes correlated with disease activity and inflammatory parameters (erythrocyte sedimentation rate, C-reactive protein), in CD patients, they correlated only with serum iron levels in patients with UC. Biological therapy was accompanied by a significant decrease in C-reactive protein and interleukin-6 compared to conventional anti-inflammatory therapy in CD patients.
    Conclusions: Children with CD had higher serum hepcidin levels on diagnosis compared to subjects with UC. During an anti-inflammatory therapy, serum hepcidin decreased in the CD group but remained consistently low in children with UC.

    Abstract Aim: Hepcidin is a central regulator of iron homeostasis. Its production is also influenced by systemic inflammation. The aims of this study were to compare hepcidin levels in paediatric patients newly diagnosed with Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) and to determine the association of hepcidin levels with laboratory and clinical parameters of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) activity.
    Methods: Children with newly diagnosed IBD between January 2012 and September 2016 were enrolled in this comparative cross-sectional study. We analysed levels of serum hepcidin, C-reactive protein, iron, ferritin, soluble transferrin receptors, blood count and faecal calprotectin in all subjects. Serum hepcidin levels were measured by reverse-phase liquid chromatography. The Paediatric Crohn's Disease Activity Index was used to evaluate CD in children, and Paediatric Ulcerative Colitis Activity Index was used for the assessment of UC disease activity.
    Results: Subjects with CD (n = 53) had significantly higher serum hepcidin levels compared with subjects with UC (n = 23) - 22.6 ng/mL (range 8.5-65.0) versus 6.5 ng/mL (range 2.4-25.8) (P < 0.05). Hepcidin was independently associated with ferritin levels in all IBD patients (P < 0.05). Moreover, there was a significant positive correlation between hepcidin and platelet count (P < 0.05) in children with CD and a negative correlation between hepcidin and faecal calprotectin (P < 0.05) in children with UC.
    Conclusion: Different hepcidin levels between children with newly diagnosed CD and UC suggest the distinct contribution of iron deficiency and/or systemic inflammation to anaemia and may help clinicians choose the best anti-anaemic treatment.

    Abstract Objectives: Therapeutic drug monitoring of thiopurine erythrocyte levels is not available in all centers and it usually requires quite a long time to obtain the results. The aims of this study were to build a model predicting low levels of 6-thioguanine and 6-methylmercaptopurine in pediatric inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients and to build a model to predict nonadherence in patients treated with azathioprine (AZA).
    Methods: The study consisted of 332 observations in 88 pediatric IBD patients. Low AZA dosing was defined as 6-thioguanine levels <125 pmol/8 × 10 erythrocytes and 6-methylmercaptopurine levels <5700 pmol/8 × 10 erythrocytes. Nonadherence was defined as undetectable levels of 6-thioguanine and 6-methylmercaptopurine <240 pmol/8 × 10 erythrocytes. Data were divided into training and testing part. To construct the model predicting low 6-thioguanine levels, nonadherence, and the level of 6-thioguanine, the modification of random forest method with cross-validation and resampling was used.
    Results: The final models predicting low 6-thioguanine levels and nonadherence had area under the curve, 0.87 and 0.94; sensitivity, 0.81 and 0.82; specificity, 0.80 and 86; and distance, 0.31 and 0.21, respectively, when applied on the testing part of the dataset. When the final model for prediction of 6-thioguanine values was applied on testing dataset, a root-mean-square error of 110 was obtained.
    Conclusions: Using easily obtained laboratory parameters, we constructed a model with sufficient accuracy to predict patients with low 6-thioguanine levels and a model for prediction of AZA treatment nonadherence (web applications: https://hradskyo.shinyapps.io/6TG_prediction/ and https://hradskyo.shinyapps.io/Non_adherence/).
