A method for treating inflammation in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract of a patient in need thereof comprising parenterally administering to the patient an effective amount of a nanoparticle composition, wherein the composition does not comprise an adjuvant, wherein the composition comprises a plurality of nanoparticle cores, each nanoparticle core coupled to a plurality of peptide antigen-MHC complexes, wherein:
the peptide antigen comprises a peptide having at least 80% identity to a peptide sequence chosen from SEQ ID NO:4 to SEQ ID NO:8 across the entire length;
the nanoparticle core has a diameter from about 1 nm to about 100 nm; and
the ratio of peptide antigen-MHC complexes per nanoparticle core is from about 10:1 to about 1000:1; and
the peptide antigen is a T cell epitope.
