Abstract:
Gastrointestinal (GI) disorders including a wide range of infectious, inflammatory, autoimmune, etc. disorders. Inflammatory bowel and celiac disease are non-fatal but overwhelming GI associated disorders. IBD and celiac's complications, besides the great suffering, disturb the normal life of the patients and make them involved in mental and physical problems. The emerging role of genetic content is deniable for GI inflammatory disorders incidence, and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) function is the recent topic for its association. Analyzing of absolute lncRNAs interference in GI inflammatory appearance remains in infancy, and more studies are requested. Here, we concisely performed a systematic review in the last knowledge up to 2020 to identify all of the significant lncRNAs associated with the initiation and progression of GI inflammatory diseases. Accordingly, this assay attempted to refer to the expression of lncRNAs changing from the normal state, discovery of genetic mechanisms, and main effectors that would trigger associated IBD and celiac expression and immune responses would be effective for therapeutic approaches. It could be useful for prognostic and diagnostic purposes of GI associated inflammatory disorders.

Chronic Bowel Disorders: Introduction
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is a common disorder affecting the gastrointestinal tract. The distinctive feature is recurrent abdominal pain associated with altered bowel movements, manifesting as constipation, diarrhea, or fluctuating between both. The...
Inflammatory Bowel Disease I: Ulcerative Colitis
Inflammatory bowel disease, or IBD, encompasses a group of disorders characterized by chronic inflammation or ulceration of the gastrointestinal tract.
Risk Factors
The exact cause of IBD remains unclear, although it is believed to be due to a mix of genetic, environmental, microbial, and immune factors. Genetic factors are significant in determining susceptibility to IBD, with family history being a critical risk factor. Individuals with a first-degree relative who has IBD are at...

Inflammatory Bowel Disease II: Crohn's Disease
Inflammatory bowel disease, commonly known as IBD, refers to a collection of disorders that lead to persistent inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. The two types of IBD are ulcerative colitis, which impacts the colon, and Crohn's disease, which can involve any part of the gastrointestinal segment.
Crohn's disease
Crohn's disease is a chronic, systemic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that predominantly affects the gastrointestinal tract. It is marked by...
