The human body is colonized by a large number of microbes coexisting peacefully with their
host. The most colonized site is the gastrointestinal tract (GIT). More than 70% of all the …

Studies of the genetics underlying inflammatory bowel diseases have increased our
understanding of the pathways involved in both ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease and …

The collection of whole microbial communities (bacteria, archaea, fungi, and viruses)
together constitutes the gut microbiome. Diet, age, stress, host genetics, and diseases cause …

Background & Aims Gut dysbiosis is closely involved in the pathogenesis of inflammatory
bowel disease (IBD). However, it remains unclear whether IBD-associated gut dysbiosis …

Background: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) represents multifactorial chronic
inflammatory conditions in the gastrointestinal tract and includes Crohn's disease (CD) and …

Aberrant immune responses toward commensal gut bacteria can result in the onset and
perpetuation of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). Reduced microbiota diversity in …

Alterations of the gut microbiota may cause dysregulated mucosal immune responses
leading to the onset of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) in genetically susceptible hosts …

The incidence of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), as well as other inflammatory
conditions, has dramatically increased over the past half century. While many studies have …

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic immune-mediated disease that affects the
gastrointestinal tract. It is argued that environment, microbiome, and immune-mediated …

Background The concept of an altered collective gut microbiota rather than identification of a
single culprit is possibly the most significant development in inflammatory bowel disease …
