Abstract
Over the years a large number of animal models of IBD have been put forth. The stimuli used to promote inflammation in the models include infectious agents, immune manipulation, toxic compounds and tissue homogenates from IBD patients. Although all of the models are successful models of intestinal inflammation it is hard to single out one as being a more successful model of IBD because we have no specific markers of IBD for the model to mimic. Progress in the development of animal models awaits the better definition of characteristics specific to IBD.
