ABSTRACT: Inflammatory bowel disease is represented by two
well-known diseases: ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease. These two entities
have been found on multiple sclerosis patients. Although the location and clinical
manifestations of these diseases are very different, their immune response
patterns present many similarities. This article examines the immune pathology
of inflammatory bowel disease and its relationship to the immunological
behavior of multiple sclerosis.
