Intestinal homeostasis is a product of a complex and regulated network among diet, microbiota, gut epithelial cells and the immune system. The great challenge for the gastrointestinal tract is to respond to pathogens and to food antigen while it needs to keep its function, such as nutrient absorption, and to tolerate foreign antigens. Any disturb between these interactions unleashes an in…
Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs), such as Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), are chronic disorders characterized by inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract, resulting in debilitating symptoms such as diarrhea, abdominal pain, and weight loss, significantly impacting patients' quality of life. The intestine plays a crucial role in both digestion and immune response, act…
Ulcerative colitis (UC) is currently the most common type of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), with a prevalence of 5 million cases worldwide. Characterized by a dysregulated immune response, microbiota imbalance and damage to the intestinal epithelium, UC affects the colon and rectum. Macrophages are crucial for orchestrating immune responses in the intestinal epithelium and ensure intes…

Enteroendocrine hormones are hormones released from the activation of enteroendocrine cells (CEE), cells that reside in the epithelial layer of the gastrointestinal tract. CEEs release these hormones from the presence of nutrients. Among these hormones are the incretins GIP (Gastric Inhibitory Polypeptide) and GLP-1 (Glucagon-like Polypeptide 1). These two hormones have the ability to rel…
Short Chain Fatty Acids (SCFA) are end-products produced from the fermentation of complex carbohydrates by intestinal microbiota. It has been reported that AGCCs have anti-inflammatory properties, protecting from colitis as well as acting in modulation of neutrophil's function and in the maturation and activation of dendritic cells. However, their role in the function of T CD4 + cells, cr…
