Summary

Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (IBD) is a heterogeneous group of diseases regarding clinical presentation, disease course and treatment response. Pathogenesis is complex and multifactorial, based on interactions between genetic and environmental factors, gut microbiota and the immune system, leading to intestinal inflammation. As the immune reaction itself causes the intestinal damage, differences in components of this immune mediated inflammatory reaction between IBD patients might explain the heterogeneity in response to different therapy strategies. Identifying immune components that are associated to disease activity and prognosis would enable a more personalized treatment.
