CONCLUSIONS TFF3 level increased with CD activity, which is of significance for diagnosis and for evaluation of mucosal healing. TFF3 could also be a marker in pediatric UC, as TFF3 positively correlated with UCAI. IMPACT The diagnosis and evaluation of IBD is difficult; endoscopy provides objective assessment; TFF3 can be a useful marker instead of endoscopy.TFF3 was increased in active CD of children; TFF3 can be used as a clinical marker of pediatric CD; TFF3 can diagnose and evaluate mucosal healing of CD.Pediatrician should pay attention to clinical marker; TFF3 level may be a key evaluation of mucosal healing of CD; the value of diagnosis of TFF3 in CD is important.BACKGROUND Mechanical ventilation of preterm neonates is associated with neuroinflammation and an increased risk of adverse neurological outcomes. Human amnion epithelial cells (hAECs) have anti-inflammatory and regenerative properties. We aimed to determine if intravenous administration of hAECs to preterm lambs would reduce neuroinflammation and injury at 2 days of age. METHODS Preterm lambs were delivered by cesarean section at 128-130 days' gestation (term is ~147 days) and either ventilated for 48 h or humanely killed at birth. Lambs received 3 mL surfactant (Curosurf) via endotracheal tube prior to delivery (either with or without 90 × 106 hAECs) and 3 mL intravenous phosphate-buffered saline (with or without 90 × 106 hAECs, consistent with intratracheal treatment) after birth. RESULTS Ventilation increased microglial activation, total oligodendrocyte cell number, cell proliferation and blood-brain barrier permeability (P  less then  0.05, PBS + ventilation and hAEC + ventilation vs. control), but did ntion to the preterm neonate is safe.Considering that hAECs are being used in phase
