The colonization of humans with commensals is critical for our well-being. This tightly regulated symbiotic relationship depends on the flora and an intact mucosal immune system. A disturbance of either compound can cause intestinal inflammation. This review summarizes extrinsic and intrinsic factors contributing to intestinal dysbiosis and inflammatory bowel disease.

Crohn's disease (CD) is a chronic, complex inflammatory disorder of the gastrointestinal tract that presents significant therapeutic challenges. Despite the availability of a wide range of treatments, many patients experience primary non-response, secondary loss of response, or adverse events, limiting the overall effectiveness of current therapies. Clinical trials often report response rates below 60%, partly due to stringent inclusion criteria.

Sepsis is a systemic inflammatory response syndrome of multiorgan failure caused by dysregulation of the host response to infection and is a major cause of death in critically ill patients. In recent years, with the continuous development of sequencing technology, the intestinal microecology of this disease has been increasingly studied. The gut microbiota plays a host-protective role mainly through the maintenance of normal immune function and the intestinal barrier.

Cell-type-specific contributions to CD etiology and genetic risk are incompletely understood. Here we built a comprehensive atlas of cell-type- resolved chromatin accessibility comprising 557,310 candidate cis-regulatory elements (cCREs) in terminal ileum and ascending colon from patients with active and inactive CD and healthy controls.

Ulcerative colitis is a chronic, idiopathic, inflammatory condition affecting the colon, primarily impacting individuals aged 30 to 40. It typically begins in the rectum and gradually progresses to the proximal regions of the colon, characterized by recurrent and remitting mucosal inflammation. Ulcerative colitis is categorized under inflammatory bowel disease, which encompasses various gastrointestinal tract disorders, but its underly-ing pathophysiology remains unclear.

Background/aims: Portal vein thrombosis (PVT) frequently occurs in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), particularly when influenced by factors such as abdominal infections, IBD flare-ups, or surgical procedures. The implications of PVT range from immediate issues such as intestinal ischemia to long-term concerns including portal hypertension and its complications. However, there is a notable gap in comprehensive studies on PVT in IBD, especially with the increasing incidence of IBD in Asia.
