The protective effect of indigo on intestinal epithelial cells remains unclear. Yokote Akihito et al. preliminarily investigated the anti-ferroptosis effect of indigo in inflammatory bowel disease. Here, we further discuss and evaluate the role of indigo based on the results.

Keynote webinar | Spotlight on medication adherence

Live: Thursday 27th June 2024, 18:00-19:30 (CEST)

WHO estimates that half of all patients worldwide are non-adherent to their prescribed medication. The consequences of poor adherence can be catastrophic, on both the individual and population level.

Join our expert panel to discover why you need to understand the drivers of non-adherence in your patients, and how you can optimize medication adherence in your clinics to drastically improve patient outcomes.
