Core Tip Inflammatory bowel disease is still incurable and a major burden in the patient’s life and health care system. The discovery of new and safe therapeutic alternatives is urgently needed. This study tested the efficacy of a new thrombospondin- derived peptide, ABT-898 in a murine model of colitis. Our results indicate that this peptide was able to ameliorate inflammation and angiogenesis. In addition, mice treated with ABT-898 showed significant decrease of plasmatic Interleukin-6 and lesser activation of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 in colitic lesions. These findings suggest that ABT-898 may indeed be an alternative treatment for inflammatory bowel disease.
