Abstract

Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis are two forms of inflammatory bowel disease, caused by an altered mucosal immune response, and characterized by chronic inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract, augmentation of pro-inflammatory mediator production, and reduction of those with anti-inflammatory effects, as well as by upregulation of the expression of chemokines and adhesion molecules, thus promoting cell infiltration into the inflamed tissue, which finally leads to epithelial cell apoptosis and mucosal damage.
