Vitamin A inhibits the action of LPS on the intestinal epithelial barrier function and tight junction proteins.

Food & Function, 2019
Inflammation caused by either intrinsic or extrinsic toxins results in intestinal barrier dysfunction, contributing to inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and other diseases.

Apoptosis and Intestinal Barrier Function

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2000
The signal transduction pathways of the induction of apoptosis in the gastrointestinal tract have in part been discovered. However, almost nothing is known about the functional influence of apoptotic signals on intestinal barrier function. In this study the effect of camptothecin-induced apoptosis in HT-29/B6 monolayers and the influence of apoptosis ...

Bilberry anthocyanin extract promotes intestinal barrier function and inhibits digestive enzyme activity by regulating the gut microbiota in aging rats.

Food & Function, 2019
This study was aimed at understanding potential mechanisms regarding bilberry anthocyanin extract consumption and healthy aging and the effects on intestinal barrier function and digestive enzyme activity, through regulating the gut microbiota in aging ...

Glutamine and intestinal barrier function

Amino Acids, 2014
The intestinal barrier integrity is essential for the absorption of nutrients and health in humans and animals. Dysfunction of the mucosal barrier is associated with increased gut permeability and development of multiple gastrointestinal diseases. Recent studies highlighted a critical role for glutamine, which had been traditionally considered as a ...

Moisturization and skin barrier function

Dermatologic Therapy, 2004
Over the past decade, great progress has been made toward elucidating the structure and function of the stratum corneum (SC), the outermost layer of the epidermis. SC cells (corneocytes) protect against desiccation and environmental challenge by regulating water flux and retention.

Endothelial barrier function in preeclampsia

Frontiers in Bioscience, 2007
Impaired endothelial barrier function resulting in increased vascular permeability is a characteristic vascular response in preeclampsia, a hypertensive and multiple systemic disorder of human pregnancy. During the last two decades, endothelial function in preeclampsia has been intensively studied and significant progress has been made in understanding

Skin Barrier Function and Allergens

2016
The skin is an important barrier protecting us from mechanical insults, microorganisms, chemicals and allergens, but, importantly, also reducing water loss. A common hallmark for many dermatoses is a compromised skin barrier function, and one could suspect an elevated risk of contact sensitization (CS) and allergy following increased penetration of ...

Functional barriers: Properties and evaluation

Food Additives and Contaminants, 2005
Functional barriers are multilayer structures deemed to prevent migration of some chemicals released by food-contact materials into food. In the area of plastics packaging, different migration behaviours of mono- and multilayer structures are assessed in terms of lag time and of their influence of the solubility of the migrants in food simulants ...

Filaggrin and Skin Barrier Function

2016
The skin barrier function is greatly dependent on the structure and composition of the uppermost layer of the epidermis, the stratum corneum (SC), which is made up of flattened anucleated cells surrounded by highly organized and continuous lipid matrix.
