Primary and secondary non-response affects approximately 50% of patients with Crohn's disease treated with anti-tumour necrosis factor (TNF) monoclonal antibodies. To date, very little single cell research exists regarding drug repurposing in Crohn's disease. We aimed to elucidate the cellular phenomena underlying resistance to anti-TNF therapy in patients with Crohn's disease and to identify potential drug candidates for these patients. Single-cell transcriptome analyses were performed using data (GSE134809) from the Gene Expression Omnibus and Library of Integrated Network-Based Cellular Signatures L1000 Project. Data aligned to the Genome Reference Consortium Human Build 38 reference genome using the Cell Ranger software were processed using the Seurat package. To capture significant functional terms, gene ontology functional enrichment analysis was performed on the marker genes. For biological analysis, 93,893 cells were retained (median 20,163 genes). Through marker genes, seven major cell lineages were identified: B-cells, T-cells, natural killer cells, monocytes, endothelial cells, epithelial cells, and tissue stem cells. In the anti-TNF-resistant samples, the top 10 differentially expressed genes were , , , , , , , , , , , , and , which were robustly distributed in all cell lineages, mainly in B-cells. Through molecular function analyses, we found that the biological functions of both monocyte and T-cell groups mainly involved immune-mediated functions. According to multi-cluster drug repurposing prediction, vorinostat is the top drug candidate for patients with anti-TNF-refractory Crohn's disease. Differences in cell populations and immune-related activity within tissues may influence the responsiveness of Crohn's disease to anti-TNF agents. Vorinostat may serve as a promising novel therapy for anti-TNF-resistant Crohn's disease.
