Cover Story: Inflammatory Bowel Diseases, encompassing Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis, originate from a complex interplay of genetic, immune, microbial, and environmental factors. This review explores the latest insights into IBD pathogenesis, highlighting the recent developments and knowledge in immune dysregulation, gut microbiota alterations, and exposome influences such as pollutants and antibiotic exposure. Advances in multi-omics and single-cell analysis provide a deeper understanding of disease mechanisms, paving the way for precision medicine. Future strategies should focus on early prevention, microbiome modulation, and targeted immunotherapies to improve patient outcomes. View this paper
