Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) refers to a group of chronic, recurrent intestinal inflammatory conditions with complex cause and unclear underlying mechanisms. It includes two main types: ulcerative colitis (UC) Crohn's (CD). The conventional treatment IBD mainly 5-aminosalicylates, glucocorticoids, immunosuppressive drugs, which have their limitations. Recent advancements in research expanded options, biological agents playing key role. Anti-tumor necrosis factor alpha has emerged as the first-line therapy for moderate severe IBD. Anti-integrin antibodies also become important disease, vedolizumab is often used cases anti-tumor factor-alpha failure intolerance other treatments. Other are being tested clinical trials at different stages. This article reviews efficacy safety primary therapies provides comprehensive analysis current challenges associated disease.

Microbiomes combine the species and activities of all microorganisms living together in a specific habitat. They comprise unique ecological niches with influences that scale from local to global ecosystems. Understanding connectivity microbiomes across academic disciplines is important help mitigate climate change, reduce food insecurity, control harmful diseases, ensure environmental sustainability. However, most publications refer individual microbiomes, those integrating two or more related are rare. This review examines multifaceted benefits agriculture, manufacturing preservation, natural environment, human health, biocatalyst processes.

In inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), the most promising therapies targeting cytokines or immune cell trafficking demonstrate around 40% efficacy. As IBD is a multifactorial inflammation of intestinal tract, single-target approach unlikely to solve this problem, necessitating an alternative strategy that addresses its variability. One often overlooked by pharmaceutically driven therapeutic options address impact environmental factors. This somewhat surprising considering increasingly viewed as condition heavily influenced such factors, including diet, stress, and pollution-often referred "Western lifestyle". IBD, responses result from complex interplay among genetic background patient, molecules, cells, local microenvironment where danger- microbe-associated molecular patterns (D/MAMPs) provide adjuvant-rich environment. Through activating DAMP receptors, array pro-inflammatory factors can stimulate, for example, NLRP3 inflammasome-a major amplifier response in various cells via non-specific bystander activation myeloid (e.g., macrophages) lymphocytes tissue-resident memory T cells). Current biological treatment approaches dampen response, but without reducing exposure e.g., changing diet (reducing ultra-processed foods), landscape never resolved continues drive mucosal dysregulation. Thus, are not enough put out fire. The resultant smoldering, low-grade diminishes physiological resilience (micro)environment, perpetuating state chronic disease. Therefore, our hypothesis posits successful interventions must complexity disease simultaneously all modifiable aspects: innate immunity microbiota, adaptive cytokines, relate (micro)environment. Thus be comprehensively treated across nano-, meso-, microscales, rather than with focus on single targets. A broader perspective also includes adapt DAMPing (micro)environment warranted.
