Summary

Increased evidence suggests that dopamine acts as an important regulator of immune function. A substantial amount of dopamine exists in the gastrointestinal tract, especially in colonic lumen. Decreased dopamine level has been reported in the colonic mucosa of ulcerative colitis patients. Therefore, the investigators suppose that colonic dopamine could involve in the ulcerative colitis and play an important role. This study aims to explore the role of dopamine in ulcerative colitis and underlying mechanism, which will provide a rationale for diagnosis and treatment of the ulcerative colitis.
