| Abstract | The gastrointestinal tract is crucial for the immunological system in host defense in addition to food intake, food digestion, and nutrient absorption within humans and animals. Epithelium barrier in the intestine plays to block pathogens from the lumen. Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) in dogs, as well as humans, are characterized by dysregulated intestinal inflammation and mucosal tissue damage in parts of the gastrointestinal tract [9, 11-13, 15, 18, 24, 28]. Regarding of histologic criteria, ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn’s disease (CD) are the two types of human IBD. Despite having a common basis in over responsiveness to mucosal antigens, UC and CD have considerably different pathophysiologies. In contrast, IBD in dogs divided into the several types by histological criteria of inflammatory infiltrate such as neutrophilic, eosinophilic, lymphocytic, plasmacytic and granulomatous. However, little is known whether these types reveal the common basis or different basis. Some reports show the pathology is different between humans and dogs, whereas other reports show common mucosal immune system between human and dogs [1, 6, 8, 19]. |
