Gut Microbiota as a Mediator Between Intestinal Fibrosis and Creeping Fat in Crohn's Disease

United European Gastroenterology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Intestinal stricture remains one of the most challenging complications in Crohn's disease, and its underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. Accumulating evidence suggests that gut microbiota is significantly altered in stenotic intestines and may play a key role in the development of fibrogenesis in Crohn's disease.
