Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a progressive multifactorial inflammatory disease of the gut. The cause of IBD is yet unknown. Some researchers have shown that genetic factors, environmental factors, and the gut microbiome are significant considerations. Our gut contains gut virome and gut bacteria, which vary among individuals due to some factors. The gut virome is a substantial component of the microbiome. This editorial explores the emerging role of gut virome in IBD.
