Alcohol and Gut-Derived Inflammation
Alcohol promotes intestinal inflammation. This gut inflammation in turn can promote multiple organ dysfunctions and chronic disorders associated with alcohol consumption, including chronic liver disease, neurological disease, GI cancers, and inflammatory bowel syndrome. This review summarizes the mechanisms by which chronic alcohol intake leads to intestinal inflammation. Understanding these mechanisms of gut inflammation can aid in the discovery of therapeutic approaches to mitigate alcohol-induced organ damage.
