抄録 The continuous contact between・commensal bacterial and the single epithelial cell layer of the mucosal tis-sue is a characteristic feature of the gastrointestinal system. ln particularinteraction between -commen$albacteria and mucosal immune system plays an important role in keeping health and disease development.hiammatory bowel diseases are chronic intestinal di$orders of unknown etiology in which in geneticallysusceptible individualsthe mucosal immune system shows an aberrant response towards luminal anti-gens such as dietary factors and/or commensal bacte. riaThe relation between a dysregulated bacterialecosystem and mucosal inflammation in IBD has been demo/nstrated in a variety of clinical and basic lit-eratures. The gastrointestinal tract has developed elaborate mechanisms to coexist with its autologous mi-crobiotabut rapidly respond to invading pathogens and then return to homeostasis with its commensalbacteria after the pathogenic infection is cleared. lf these tightly regu/lated ’homeostatic mechanisms aredisturbedchronic intestinal inflammation may be induced. Previous studies demonstrated that some com-me/nsal bacteria are detrimentaland others have no effect or are protective. ln additioneach host has agenetically determined response to detrimental and protective bacterial species. Environmental and ge-netic factors modulate the relative balance of beneficial and detrimental bacterial speciessuggesting thattherapeutic manipulation of this balance can influence health and disease. This paper focuses on new in-sights into the role of commensal bacteria in gut health and diseaseand presents recent advances intherapeutic approaches to modulate imbalance of intestinal microbiota in IBD patients.
