抄録

Conventional treatments for CD are nonspecific, and target the suppression or regulation of inflammatory responses ; however, the mechanism of action is not well understood. These treatments improve symptoms for the short term, but it is difficult to prevent post-inflammatory sequelae and avoid surgery. In recent years, the treatment of CD has been approaching a turning point : the use of biological products targeting cytokines causing mucosal inflammation, such as, the endogenous protein preparation anti-TNFα antibody (infliximab). The second targeting treatment is a specific inhibitor of the transcription activity of a specified gene (pathway for signal conversion), and it is in the process of development. However, these biological preparations are also limited in their effectiveness ; therefore, conventional treatments must be used in conjunction.<BR>In the treatment of CD, it is important to understand the cascade of mucosal inflammation based on the results of previous studies on genetics, immuno-regulation, signal transduction, intestinal microecology, host-microbial interactions, epithelial cell biology, tissue injury, and fibrogenesis.
