Hsp60 as a Novel Target in IBD Management: A Prospect.

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) encompasses various pathological conditions similar but distinct that share a multifactorial etiology, including involvement of the intestinal barrier function, the immune system, and intestinal microorganisms. Hsp60 is a chaperonin component of the chaperoning system, present in all cells and tissues, including the intestine. It plays important roles in cell physiology outside and inside mitochondria, its canonical place of residence.

Tea catechins induce crosstalk between signaling pathways and stabilize mast cells in ulcerative colitis.

It is well documented that nutraceuticals, in general, and Green tea catechins, in particular, possess a potential therapeutic value in inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) due to their anti-oxidative and anti-inflammatory effects. This study aimed to investigate the possible mechanism of action of catechins in a rat model of colitis induced by 2.4.

The fingerprint of the human gastrointestinal tract microbiota: a hypothesis of molecular mapping.

The precise etiology of Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IDB) remains unclear and several factors are believed to play a role in its development and progression, including the composition of microbial communities resident in the gastrointestinal tract. Human intestinal microbiota are extensive with at least 15,000-36,000 bacterial species. However, thanks to the new development in sequencing and molecular taxonomic methodologies, our understanding of the microbiota population composition, dynamics, and ecology has greatly increased.
