Core Tip	In recent years, several novel mechanisms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) that likely relate to previously established IBS theories have been identified. Inflammation and postinfectious low-grade inflammation are emerging areas requiring clarification with regard to IBS pathophysiology. Immunological and genetic predisposition along with altered microbiota are critical in IBS development, while several dietary factors and enteroendocrine cells may also play roles in this syndrome. However, none of these accounts for the full repertoire of IBS symptoms, and the pathophysiology of this condition is not fully understood.
