Abstract:
:Both ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease, the two major forms of inflammatory bowel diseases, are recognized, at the moment, as perplexing and challenging clinical entities, in which several molecules and cell types are implicated. Recent molecular evidence proposes the intestinal microvascular remodelling or angiogenesis, as a phenomenon implicated in the pathogenesis of these chronic inflammatory disorders, together with other proposed theories involved in the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel diseases, such as genetic, microbacterial and immune factors. Intestinal damage is followed by a physiological angiogenesis, but the abnormal expression of pro- and anti-angiogenic molecules and the changes of vascular cell types could reflect a pathological vascular remodelling. Thus, the inflammation may be favoured and maintained by a pathological angiogenesis. A better understanding of the angiogenic process may facilitate the design of more effective therapies for chronic intestinal inflammation.
