Abstract:
The pathophysiological process of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is complex. Recent studies showed that alteration in gut microbiota, damage of intestinal mucosal barrier and increase of mucosal permeability due to inflammation, diet and stress, as well as abnormalities of enteric nervous system in both function and morphology play important roles in the development of IBS. In this article, the advances in studies on above mentioned pathogenic mechanisms of IBS were briefly summarized.
