Increased bowel permeability triggers the immune system to attack antigens in contact with the mucosa (foods, bacteria etc) I believe this process may in some individuals escalate and manifest itself as regional enteritis/colitis a.k.a crohns disease.
The increased bowel permeability might have different etiologies. Perhaps too much antibiotic use, different kinds of medications NSAIDs and SSRIs and also some infections or a combination of factors culminate in some people to cause IBD.
Crohns disease in remission also has increased bowel permeability which may be the underlying cause for the chronical nature of the disease. With frequent relapses and medication induced remissions.
