My first stop would be wikipedia or google for a quick reference. I actually had a similar question not even 5 days ago, but I couldn’t find the answer.

Novel Agents for the Treatment of Crohn’s Disease

Developed and produced for www.MDPracticeGuide.com Animation Description Animation reviews novel agents for the treatment of Crohn’s Disease that target key biologic steps in the inflammatory process. Crohn’s disease is an autoimmune disorder characterized by chronic transmural inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. Inflammation can be seen anywhere along the GI tract but is most often found in the terminal ileum and cecum of the ascending colon. In Crohn’s disease, there is a disruption to the normal physiologic balance between immune activated gastrointestinal inflammation and the down regulation of the inflammatory response, thus resulting in chronic inflammation. Leukocyte recruitment is a crucial step in the inflammatory process and involves a cascade of events that consist of the sequential action of molecular signals and adhesion molecules. Blocking any of these steps reduces inflammation by preventing leukocyte accumulation at the site of inflammation. Novel biologic therapies for Crohn’s disease are available that target key biologic steps in the inflammatory process such as tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and alpha-4 (alpha4) integrin subunits. TNF-alpha is a transmembrane protein produced by macrophages and T-cells. It is released from the membrane of activated cells in response to endotoxins, IL-1, and TNF-alpha. The matrix metalloproteinase, TNF-alpha converting enzyme (TACE), is responsible for cleaving TNF-alpha from the membrane. TNF-alpha …

Answer by sazm82
I have Crohn’s Disease so I’m going on what I have read about them both;

1. False. It’s not known what kicks off Crohn’s.
2. True. I have Crohn’s in both intestine (large & Small) and in my esophagus.
3. Surgery for both can give you years symptom free but can keep coming back, it is not a cure. Trouble is you can run out of intestine to remove after so long.
4. Crohn’s Disease can go into remission if treated.

I hope this helps you!! )

colon disease question by : Mom has stage IV colon caner, spread to almost everyone, and bone marrow disease on top of that.?
My Mom has colon cancer in 2004, surgery, told everything good. Cancer reappeared 2006, more surgery and did some kind of pill form of chemo that she took at home. That seem to go well. Then about a year ago she was told that she had a bone marrow disorder (mylordesplysia (spelling) where her bone marrow had pretty much stop producing. She has shots to help increase her red and while blood cell counts and has had a few blood transfusion. In March she had two tumors that actually burst through her skin. Malignant. PET scan done, shows cancer in colon, upper part of right lung and under chest wall on left side Is told that chemo not a treatment option due to her already low immune system, but they do radiation on the tumors. 17 Treatments. Now a lump has shown up on her neck neck, and a new MRI shows that the cancer has gone to her pelvic area and at least into the bones and soft tissues of her left leg. The will do ten treatments of radiation to try to help with pain in legs, as she is barely able to move. They say palliative care is all they can provide, what they are not telling us is how long they thing she can live with all this disease. I know it’s an unknown, but would like thoughts and or opinions on what others think. Thanks for your replies. I am currently provided care for her. Thinking about looking into hospice so that I can get some help, but is it too early for that?

Why Colon Hydrotherapy for Weight Loss, Constipation, Toxins, Bloating and More Part 1?

For more info. go to www.CaptainColon.com or http Poor colon hygiene causes waste material to move sluggishly and form a stagnant lining in the colon. This stagnant lining can remain in the colon for years cutting back elimination of waste so that the poisons remain in the blood stream. When a sufficient amount of protein and sugar are present, fermentation begins. Putrefaction and fermentation produce even more poisons from which the body must defend itself. This condition is aggravated if animal or dairy products, refined flour, sugar or alcohol have been habitually consumed. Under these conditions the immune system is considerably strained and over time the result is an environment that usually results in deadly disease. The colon is the most important organ for maintaining good health!
