Abstract
Ulcerative Colitis (UC) and Crohn’s disease (CD), the two major types of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), are chronic diseases with recurrent symptoms and significant morbidity. Long-term persistence of chronic inflammation in IBD is among the major factors contributing to neoplastic transformation and the development of colitis-associated colorectal cancer. There exists a lack of efficient medications for IBD, primarily due to either limited efficacy or side effects. Targeting bromodomain-containing protein 4 (BRD4) represents a novel therapeutic strategy for IBD. Recently, we have successfully identified proprietary, highly potent, and specific BRD4 inhibitors which significantly suppressed the initiation of mucosal inflammation and chronicity in proof-of-concept studies in several animal models of IBD.
