Hypoxia influences the normal metabolism of cells and normal functions of organs, eventually causing diseases. Various degrees of hypoxia can be seen in the intestinal mucosa of both experimental mouse models and patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), whose oxygen supply and oxygen consumption are damaged. A number of hypoxia inducible factors, such as HIF-1, HIF-2 and HIF-3, can regulate different physiological responses via different mechanisms. Proline hydroxylasedomain (PHD) is a two-dioxygenase oxygen sensor that can mediate degradation of proline residues of HIFs. IBD is closely related to hypoxia. In recent years, researchers have paid more attention to improving the body's reaction to hypoxia in IBD, which is considered a novel treatment concept. This review will analyze the role of hypoxic injury in the pathophysiology of intestinal mucosal inflammation in IBD.
