Overview

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are lifelong chronic diseases affecting the gastrointestinal tract. The precise etiology and the different actors participating to the pathophysiological process leading to the disease development are still not well understood. A complex interaction between genetics, gut microbiota and environmental factors is thought to trigger the inappropriate mucosal immune response observed in IBD patients. We hypothesize that DON might be an environmental risk factor for IBD.The focus on the human relevance of the gut effects of DON by studying its exposure, metabolism and adverse effects in health and disease focusing on IBD patients
