Ulcerative (chronic) pancolitis - what does this mean

Ulcerative (chronic) pancolitis is an inflammatory bowel disease that affects the large intestine and causes long-term inflammation and ulceration of the intestinal lining. it is characterized by abdominal pain, cramping, diarrhea, and weight loss. it is believed to be caused by a combination of genetic, environmental, and immune factors.

What happens during the disease - ulcerative (chronic) pancolitis

При данной патологии наблюдается нарушение равновесия между физиологией иммунной системы и нормальной микрофлорой кишечника, в результате чего изменяется макро- и микроструктура слизистой оболочки, процессы регенерации и метаболизма в ней. Основное значение в патогенезе имеет изменение микробиоценоза кишечника, барьерной, секреторной и моторной функций. Нарушается активность мембранных ферментов, транспортных каналов, обеспечивающих поступление воды, ионов, продуктов расщепления белков, жиров и углеводов.

 

Дисбактериоз приводит к бродильным и гнилостным процессам, в результате которых образуется большое количество кислот, газа, а также эндогенных токсинов, которые также повреждают слизистую оболочку и нервные окончания. Развивается гиперсекреция слизи. Совокупность этих процессов приводит к поддержанию хронического воспаления кишечника и формированию атрофии его слизистой оболочки. При этом патогенез и тяжесть заболевания зависят в большей степени не от причины, а от степени повреждения энтероцитов.
