Unveiling the TL1A-LTα1β2/IL-22 Axis: A New Therapeutic Target in Crohn’s Disease with Perianal Fistulising Disease

This study reveals that TL1A-activated CD4+ T cells drive distinct cellular and molecular changes in the rectal mucosa of Crohn's disease patients with perianal fistulising disease (PFD), highlighting a novel TL1A-LTα1β2/IL-22 axis independent of TNF signaling, with important therapeutic implications.
