The main goals of our study were twofold: (1) To determine if ex vivo treatment with VPR-254 reduced relevant cytokine (IL-17 and IL-21) secretion from colonic strips of mice with colitis; (2) To determine if treatment of mice with VPR-254 attenuated parameters of colitis, using three murine IBD models.

The targets of new therapeutic molecules in IBD must aim to restore immune dysregulation by the inhibition of proinflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, interleukin [IL]-6, IL-13, IL-17, IL-18, and IL-21) and augmentation of the effect of anti-inflammatory cytokines (IL-10, IL-11, and transforming growth factor β) and to pursue new anti-inflammatory targets, such as regulatory T-cell therapy, Smad7 antisense, Janus-activated kinase inhibition, Toll-like receptor stimulation, leukocyte adhesion, and blockade of T-cell homing via integrins and mucosal addressin cellular adhesion molecule-1.

However, genetic deficiency of IL-21 associates with inflammatory bowel diseases and blockade of IL-21 in the early phases exacerbates the disease progression in some models of rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus, thus suggesting a dual role of IL-21 in the control of immune-mediated diseases.

In this article, we focus on data supporting the pathogenic role of IL-21 in human inflammatory bowel diseases and discuss preclinical studies that suggest that neutralization of IL-21 in vivo could be a new strategy to counteract the inflammatory bowel disease-related, tissue damaging immune response.

Five SNPs strongly associated with celiac disease within the KIAA1109/TENR/IL2/IL21 linkage disequilibrium block on chromosome 4q27 and one coding SNP within the IL21 gene were analyzed in a large German IBD cohort.

The four single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the IL2/IL21 locus most associated with coeliac disease were genotyped in 1590 subjects with IBD and 929 controls from The Netherlands, and then replicated in a North American cohort (2387 cases and 1266 controls) and an Italian cohort (805 cases and 421 controls), yielding a total of 4782 cases (3194 UC, 1588 CD) and 2616 controls.

Polymorphisms within the IL2-IL21 linkage disequilibrium (LD) block show a novel association with IBD, this is concordant with suggestive previous results of whole genome analyses in CD and type 1 diabetes.

Finally, we show that IL-21 positively regulates its own expression in human intestinal CD3(+) lamina propria lymphocytes, and blockade of endogenous IL-21 in cultures of CD3(+) lamina propria lymphocytes isolated from patients with Crohn's disease, a chronic inflammatory bowel disease characterized by high IL-21, down-regulates Stat3 activation and IL-21 expression.
