ABSTRACT:
A method for the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is disclosed. The method comprises administration of an antibody, polypeptide or other molecule recognizing VLA-4, a surface molecule expressed on most types of white blood cells and involved in leukocyte adhesion to endothelium and other tissus in the gut.
