Infliximab and the Microbiome: Exploring the Link between Biologic Treatment and Gut Health

Abstract

Mohnader Abadi

The human gut microbiome, composed of trillions of microorganisms
including bacteria, fungi, and viruses, plays a crucial role in maintaining
the overall health of the Gastrointestinal (GI) tract and supporting immune
system function. In recent years, there has been growing recognition of the
importance of the gut microbiome in both the pathogenesis and treatment
of various inflammatory diseases. In particular, autoimmune diseases such
as Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), rheumatoid arthritis, and ankylosing
spondylitis have been found to have strong associations with dysbiosis
(an imbalance in the microbiome), which can exacerbate inflammation and
immune system dysfunction.
