The microbial basis of inflammatory bowel diseases.
Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) are chronic, progressive diseases characterized by aberrant immune responses to environmental and gut microbial triggers in genetically susceptible hosts. Clinical, genetic, and experimental data support the role of gut microbes in causing and sustaining these diseases. Our understanding of IBD has changed dramatically as the result of advances in cultivation-i...
متن کاملThe microbial basis of inflammatory bowel diseases
The inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) are a group of chronic diseases that result from a confluence of genetic and environmental triggers. IBD have two main clinical phenotypes, ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn’s disease (CD). UC is characterized by mucosal inflammation that is limited to the colon, beginning in the rectum and extending proximally in a continuous and circumferential fashion. C...
متن کاملSpecial Issue: Inflammatory Bowel Diseases and Intestinal Epithelial Stem Cells Brief Review Inflammatory bowel diseases and intestinal epithelial stem cells
Recent studies on human inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) have brought our attention to continued epithelial injury and impaired epithelial regeneration as their key pathophysiological features. In order to develop a novel approach for the treatment of IBD, it is important to understand the ordered process of epithelial repair and the pivotal roles for the epithelial stem cells in this process....

The development of colorectal cancer caused by chronic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is the representative example of inflammation-associated carcinogenesis. The mechanism underlying the development of colorectal cancers through chronic inflammation, however, is not known. Activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID) was originally identified as an inducer of somatic hypermutation in the immu...
متن کاملSpecial Issue: Inflammatory Bowel Diseases and Intestinal Epithelial Stem Cells
Adult stem cells have the capacity to self-renew and to regenerate tissues long-term, in both homeostasis and wound repair. Genetic lineage tracing studies have identified two principal stem cell populations in the intestine. One population consists of actively cycling Lgr5+ cells residing at the crypt base. The other population consists of quiescent Bmi1+ cells that largely reside at approxima...
