A microbiota-responsive polyfunctional cytotoxic CD4⁺ T-cell state promotes mucosal inflammation in ulcerative colitis
Ulcerative colitis (UC) is characterised by chronic colonic inflammation with marked heterogeneity in disease severity and therapeutic outcomes. Here, we define a spatially organised, polyfunctional cytotoxic CD4⁺ T-cell state associated with mucosal inflammation and adverse therapeutic outcomes in UC. Integrating ex v...
