Core Tip	Hepatocyte nuclear factor 4-alpha (HNF4-α) is an important regulator of liver and intestinal epithelial cells function. Over the last years, HNF4-α has been associated with inflammatory bowel diseases following results obtained from knockout mice and human genome-wide association studies. However, no review has been published on the subject yet and no link with its known role in liver inflammation has been discussed. This review will gather for the first time all the current knowledge about the role of HNF4-α in gut inflammation, the potential impact of its isoforms in its role and hypotheses about the possible biological mechanisms involved.
