Overview

IBS is caused by the complex interaction of various factors such as intrinsic gastrointestinal factors, CNS dysregulation and psychosocial factors, genetic and environmental factors. Intrinsic gastrointestinal factors include motor abnormalities, visceral hypersensitivity, immune activation and mucosal inflammation, altered gut microbiota and abnormal serotonin pathways. Visceral hypersensitivity is a decreased threshold for the perception of visceral stimuli that affects spinal excitability brain stem and cortical modulation, activation of specific gastrointestinal mediators and recruitment of peripheral silent nociceptors. Immune activation and mucosal inflammation involves an interaction of lymphocytes, mast cells and proinflammatory cytokines. Environmental factors encompass dietary changes and infections. Psychosocial factors such as stress, anxiety and depression directly shape adult connectivity in the executive control network consisting of structures such as the insula, anterior cingulate cortex and the thalamus. Semipermanent/permanent changes in complex neural circuits lead to central pain amplification and contribute to abdominal pain in IBS patients. The dorsolateral prefrontal cortex activity (responsible for vigilance and alertness of the human brain) and the mid-cingulate cortex (engaged in attention pathways and responses) is reduced in IBS patients, which may lead to alterations in the subjective sensations of pain. Genetic factors also play a role in IBS. It has high twin concordance and familial aggregation. It is associated with Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in genes involved in immune activation, neuropeptide hormone function, oxidative stress, nociception, permeability of the GI tract, host-microbiota interaction, inflammation, and TNF activity.

Pathophysiology

Pathogenesis

IBS is an interplay between four main factors:


 
 
 
 
 
CNS dysregulation and psychosocial factors
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Intrinsic gastrointestinal factors:
Motor abnormalities
Visceral hypersensitivity
Immune activation and mucosal inflammation
• Altered gut microbiota
• Abnormal serotonin pathways
 
 
IRRITABLE BOWEL SYNDROME
 
 
 
Genetic factors:
Twin concordance
• Familial aggregation
Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms(SNPs)
TNF polymorphism
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Environmental factors
 
 
 


 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Spinal hyperexcitability
 
Activation of
N-methyl D aspartate (NMDA) receptor
nitric oxide
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Central (brainstem and cortical) modulation
 
Increased activation of:
• Anterior cingulate cortex
Thalamus
insula
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Visceral hypersensitivity
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Activation of specific gastrointestinal mediators
 
Kinins and serotonin activation lead to afferent nerve fiber sensitization
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Recruitment of peripheral silent nociceptors
 
Increased end organ sensitivity due to hormonal or immune activation
