Immunopathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease.
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a group of idiopathic, chronic and relapsing inflammatory conditions of the gastrointestinal tract. Familial and epidemiological studies have stressed the involvement of genetic factors and have also shown the critical role of environmental factors such as sanitation and hygiene in the development of IBD. However, the molecular mechanisms of intestinal inflam...
متن کاملCurrent concepts on the immunopathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease.
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is comprised of both ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD) and is a chronic inflammatory disorder that results from a dysregulated immune response in genetically susceptible individuals. Data from genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified approximately 70 genetic loci that confer susceptibility to CD and over 30 loci that are associated w...
متن کاملTherapeutic approaches in inflammatory bowel disease based on the immunopathogenesis.
Our understanding of the etiology and pathogenesis of IBD has improved extensively over the past years. At the center of the pathogenesis seems to be an excessive pro-inflammatory immune reaction towards normal intestinal flora. The different factors involved in this concept will form the focus of this review. The initial phase of antigen processing and presentation can be influenced by either ...
متن کاملNeonatal Presentation of Unremitting Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Very-early-onset inflammatory bowel disease (VEO-IBD) has a distinct phenotype and should be considered a specific entity. VEO-IBD presents with very severe clinical pictures and is frequently known by an indeterminate colitis whose clinical remission is unmanageable. This study examines the case of a neonate with VEO-IBD, not responding to medical and surgical treatment. A 7-day-old Iranian fe...
متن کاملEffects of Probiotics and Prebiotics in Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) including most important forms; Crohn’s disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC); are chronic diseases affecting the gastrointestinal tract with unclear etiology and pathology. The role of gut microbiota has recently been considered as major a factor, since altered microbiome or "dysbiosis" is a key player in the protracted course of inflammation in IBD. Howeve...
