Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Chronic inflammation is a major risk factor for various human diseases. Inflammatory bowel diseases are the best abdominal example of this. Although many studies have focused on the steps of the inflammatory responses in the last several decades, further experiences are required for the effective understanding of the pathogenesis of this heterogeneous group of diseases. Moreover, there is a great need for studies able to clarify specific issues about clinical aspects of Crohn’s disease. This Special Issue aims to highlight the latest research about this topic. We invite researchers to contribute with original research, review articles, nonclinical studies and translational/clinical studies focusing not only on the roles of integrome but also on potential therapeutic targets for medical or surgical treatments.
Dr. Francesco Giudici
Guest Editor
