Data are accumulating that emphasize the important role of the intestinal barrier and intestinal permeability for health and disease. However, these terms are poorly defined, their assessment is a ...

methods to evaluate intestinal permeability, and most importantly the relevance of abnormal permeability to disease. In this context, we will also present an emerging paradigm regarding the genesis of ...

can increase intestinal permeability, allowing the entrance of food antigens, commensal or pathogenic bacteria and bacterial components into the lamina propria and later on into the systemic ...

Background—The frequency with which non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) increase small intestinal permeability and cause inflammation is uncertain. Aims—To examine small intestinal ...

A study led by David Sancho at the Centro Nacional de Investigaciones Cardiovasculares (CNIC) in Madrid reveals how an ...

Just after birth, oxytocin is relatively freely permeable through intestinal epithelial cells, while after gut closure, RAGE plays the role of transportation of oxytocin from the intestine to the ...

The effect of oxidative stress on the enterocyte and altered intestinal permeability as well as the ultrastructural changes to the mucosa were studied. Surgical stress results in oxidative stress on ...

To conduct such trials in a scientifically sound way, we need a clear definition and validation of the tools needed to assess gut barrier functions and intestinal permeability. New approaches such ...
