Abstract

Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) is a chronic and progressive inflammatory disorder affecting the gastrointestinal tract (GT) caused by a wide range of genetic, microbial, and environmental factors. IBD is characterized by chronic inflammation, decreased gut microbial diversity and dysbiosis, with a lower amount of beneficial bacteria and a concomitant increase of pathogenic species. It is well known that dysbiosis is closely related to the induction of inflammation and oxidative stress, this last caused by an imbalance between reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and cellular antioxidant capacity that leads to cellular ROS accumulation. ROS are responsible for the intestinal epithelium oxidative damage and the increased intestinal permeability found in IBD patients and their reduction could represent a potential therapeutic strategy to limit the IBD progression and alleviate its symptom. Recent evidence highlighted that dietary polyphenols, natural antioxidants, are able to maintain redox equilibrium in the GT preventing gut dysbiosis, intestinal epithelium damage and radical inflammatory responses. Here, we suggest that the relatively new foodomics approaches, together with new technologies for promoting the antioxidative properties of dietary polyphenols, including novel delivery systems, chemical modifications and combination strategies, may provide critical insight to determine the clinical value of polyphenols for IBD therapy and a comprehensive perspective for implementing natural antioxidants as potential IBD candidate treatment.
