This book, the proceedings of the Falk Symposium No. 146
Gut-Liver Interactions: Basic and Clinical Concepts, held in
Innsbruck, Austria, on March 11-12, 2005, brings together
gastroenterologists and hepatologists both at a clinical and a
basic scientific level. Topics have been structured in such a way
to be of interest to both clinicians and basic scientists. The main
focus of the book is to highlight the role of the immune system in
gut and liver diseases and potential interactions of the gut and
the liver respectively. Special emphasis is based on the importance
of the gut flora in intestinal and also in liver diseases. The role
of NOD2 is one of the very best examples demonstrating the
importance, not only in inflammatory bowel diseases, but also
diseases well beyond this barrier.
Such intense interactions between gastroenterologists and
hepatologists, as shown through this book, might boost and
stimulate scientific ideas and research in other unexpected
areas.
