Metabolomics and IBD

Diane R Hildebrand, MB ChB, MRCS(Ed)¹, Natasha P Ross, MB ChB, MRCS(Ed)¹, and Angus JM Watson, MB ChB, FRCS(Ed), FRCS(Gen. Surg.)^1,2

IBD is a chronic inflammatory condition with a high incidence in Northern Europe. Current biological markers are inadequate for detecting, phenotyping, and monitoring the disease. It is therefore imperative to find novel biomarkers that will not only help with diagnosis but that will also shed further light on the pathogenesis of IBD. Metabolomics is an emerging science that is increasingly being utilized for biomarker discovery. Here, we discuss the potential utility of metabolomics in Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis. Inflamm Bowel Dis Monit 2011;12(2):58–65.

  Women with IBD are able to conceive at the same rate as women without IBD, but with an increased risk of adverse events. The biggest risk to pregnancy outcome, aside from a diagnosis of IBD, is disease activity. Therefore, continuing medications to maintain remission is important.
