Air-liquid interface organoid cultures are initiated from human small intestine biopsy tissue comprising both the syngeneic intestinal epithelium and native intestinal immune cells, without reconstitution, which may be obtained from an individual pre-disposed or suffering from celiac disease. The organoid cultures exhibit T cell activation in response to in vitro gluten challenge and provide tools for a novel diagnostic method for celiac disease. Diagnosis may comprise the addition of immunogenic gluten-derived peptides into the organoid cultures, and assessing hallmarks of active celiac disease, including without limitation: 1) gliadin-presentation, resulting T-cell responses, such as 2) expansion and 3) activation, 4) epithelial-cell death and consequent 5) increased proliferative epithelial cell responses to gliadin. Celiac patients, either in GRD or GFD, test positive for these tests. In other embodiments the organoids are used to test responses to candidate therapeutic agents, assessing reduction of gliadin-dependent (1) T cell activation or expansion, or (2) organoid epithelial cell death.

It was identified that intestinal organoids derived human blood and endocytes of the present invention expressed the intestinal differentiation markers CGA, CDX2, LYZ, ECAD, KLF5, MUC2, Ki67, VIL, LGR5, SOX9, VIM, and SMA, thereby effectively reflecting intestinal conditions and can assay intestinal protection and intestinal secretions according to treatment with microbiomes. In addition, the (Bifidobacterium microbiome RAPO of the present invention was identified to upregulate the expression of IL-10 and REG3A and induce the expression of lysozyme, E-cadherin, and CGA and the proliferation of intestinal crypts in the intestinal organoids. Furthermore, intestinal organoids of the present invention were examined for responses to treatment with homologous PBMC to identify the reactivity of transplant rejection. In addition, an inflammatory bowel disease simulated avatar model of the present invention was identified to allow for effectively engrafting human blood immune cells thereto and induce the development of inflammatory bowel disease and the injury of intestinal tissues, thereby effectively reflecting diseased conditions of patients. Also, it was identified that injection of PBMC from patients with inflammatory bowel disease advanced the inflammatory bowel diseases, compared to injection of PBMC from normal persons and treatment with candidate materials could palliate the inflammatory bowel diseases, whereby therapeutic agents customized for patients can be screened.

The Applicant has discovered a cytokine profile that can accurately distinguish between ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD) in a subject having, or having symptoms of, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The profile of ulcerative colitis is increased IL-10 levels (compared with a reference IL-10 level, and decreased IL-23 levels (compared with a reference IL-23 level). The cytokine profile can be detected at a protein or genomic level, and is generally determined from a peripheral blood sample (i.e. a blood fraction such as serum, plasma, or blood cells such as peripheral blood mononuclear cells). Distinguishing between UC and CD in a subject with IBD allows a clinician prescribe a suitable therapeutic regime for the subject using a non-invasive blood test, and avoiding the need for scoping or tissue biopsy, which are undesirable for the subject. The cytokine profile can also be used to monitor a therapeutic regime for effectiveness.

Disclosed herein are methods, kits and compositions for treating an inflammatory disease or condition, or fibrosis in a subject that has been determined to have increased fold-change in Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-like cytokine 1A (TL1A) expression based, at least partially, on a presence of a combination of genotypes detected in a sample obtained from the subject. In some embodiments, the combination of genotypes is significantly associated with the increased fold-change in TL1A, and in some cases, may also be predictive of severe forms of the inflammatory disease or condition. In some embodiments, the inflammatory disease or condition is an inflammatory bowel disease, such as Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis.
