To elucidate the mechanisms for pathological cytokine production in colitis, we addressed the role of the IRF transcription factors in human inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and experimental colitis. METHODS: IRF levels and cytokine production in IBD patients were studied as well as the effects of IRF4...
