Background Oncostatin M (OSM) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and as a marker for nonresponsiveness to anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) therapy. We further unraveled the potential of OSM and related receptors as markers of diagnosis, prognosis, and therapy response in IBD. Methods We collected inflamed mucosal biopsies and serum from patients with Crohn disease (CD) and with ulcerative colitis: (1) newly diagnosed patients who were treatment-naïve, (2) patients initiating anti-TNF or (3) vedolizumab therapy, (4) postoperative patients with CD, and (5) multiple-affected families with IBD including unaffected first-degree relatives (FDRs). We measured the gene expression of mucosal OSM and its receptors OSMR/LIFR and co-receptor IL6ST, and the protein expression of serum OSM. Statistical significance was defined as P &amp;lt; 0.05. Results Newly diagnosed patients showed significantly increased mucosal OSM/OSMR compared with control patients, with the highest enrichment for OSM (fold change [FC] &amp;gt;17.9). Likewise, ileal OSM/OSMR were significantly upregulated in postoperative recurrent CD. Serum OSM was increased in newly diagnosed patients and postoperative patients with recurrent CD (FC ≥ 2.6). In families with IBD, higher serum levels were observed in FDRs than in control families (FC = 2.2). Furthermore, elevated colonic OSM/OSMR (but not serum OSM) were associated with the early need for biologic therapy (FC ≥ 1.9), and higher OSM was also predictive of primary nonresponse to both anti-TNF and vedolizumab therapy (FC ≥ 2.4). Immunohistochemistry highlighted mucosal OSM expression in macrophages. Conclusions We found that OSM is a diagnostic biomarker in the tissue and serum not only of newly diagnosed patients with IBD and postoperative patients with recurrent CD but also of their FDRs. Higher colonic OSM levels are furthermore associated with poor prognosis and with primary nonresponse to biologic therapies. Therefore, OSM could guide clinical decision-making.
