Background-Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is characterised by chronic intestinal inflammation and increased epithelial permeability. Both tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) and interferon gamma (IFN-gamma) have been implicated in IBD.Aims-To understand better the effects of these cytokines on epithelial cell function.Methods-T84 cells were cultured with IFN-gamma and TNF-alpha and changes in transepithelial resistance (TER), fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) dextran flux, short circuit current (I-sc), cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein levels, cell morphology, TNF receptor gene expression, and apoptosis were assayed.Results-Relative to controls, significant changes (p
