Parallel Changes in Harvey-Bradshaw Index, TNFα, and Intestinal Fatty Acid Binding Protein in Response to Infliximab in Crohn’s Disease

Intestinal fatty acid binding protein (I-FABP) indicates barrier integrity. Aims: determine if I-FABP is elevated in active Crohn’s disease (CD) and if I-FABP parallels anti-TNFα antibody (infliximab) induced lowering of TNFα and Harvey-Bradshaw Index (HBI) as potential indicator of mucosal healing....
