Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Diverticular disease (DD) refers to the presence of diverticula throughout the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, mainly along colon. DD might evolve into diverticulitis that is accompanied by severe clinical presentation, which includes abscess formation, perforation, stricture, obstruction and/or fistula.
AIM: The aim of the present review is to summarize the role of molecular and genetic factors in DD development, as well as their possible contribution towards new prognostic indicators, diagnostic algorithms and new therapeutic approaches.
METHODS AND RESULTS: Except from common predisposing parameters, several genetic mutations, immune factors, neurotransmitters, hormones and protein dysfunctions have been associated to the early onset of DD symptoms, pathogenesis and prognosis of the disease. Specific structural changes in the colonic wall, altered matrix composition and compromised motility have been verified as possible pathogenic factors for the development of DD. Dysregulation in peristaltic activity and reduced ability of the longitudinal muscle to relax following contraction has been also associated with DD evolution. In addition, it has been suspected that genetic defects combined with alterations in intestinal microbiota might play an important role in diverticulitis presentation.
