Functions and Diseases of the Retinal Pigment Epithelium
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2021 The retinal pigment epithelium is a fundamental component of the retina that plays essential roles in visual functions. Damage to the structure and function of the retinal pigment epithelium leads to a variety of retinopathies, and there is currently no ...

Cellular and functional heterogeneity of the airway epithelium
Mucosal Immunology, 2021 The airway epithelium protects us from environmental insults, which we encounter with every breath. Not only does it passively filter large particles, it also senses potential danger and alerts other cells, including immune and nervous cells.

Evolution of cooperation in an epithelium [PDF]
Journal of The Royal Society Interface, 2019 Cooperation is prevalent in nature, not only in the context of social interactions within the animal kingdom but also on the cellular level. In cancer, for example, tumour cells can cooperate by producing growth factors. The evolution of cooperation has traditionally been studied for well-mixed populations under the framework of evolutionary game ...

Biofilm-stimulated epithelium modulates the inflammatory responses in co-cultured immune cells [PDF]
, 2019 The gingival epithelium is a physical and immunological barrier to the microbiota of the oral cavity, which interact through soluble mediators with the immune cells that patrol the tissue at the gingival epithelium.

Cross-talk between Akkermansia muciniphila and intestinal epithelium controls diet-induced obesity
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2013 Obesity and type 2 diabetes are characterized by altered gut microbiota, inflammation, and gut barrier disruption. Microbial composition and the mechanisms of interaction with the host that affect gut barrier function during obesity and type 2 diabetes ...

Immunomodulation of Epithelium [PDF]
Canadian Journal of Gastroenterology, 1994 Many studies have provided evidence that the immune system is a key regulatory system of intestinal function. The interaction of immune cells with the gut epithelium plays an important role in host defence, acting to eliminate pathogens, antigens and other noxious material from the lumen of the gastrointestinal tract.

Expression profiling of ascorbic acid–related transporters in human and mouse eyes [PDF]
, 2016 PURPOSE: Ascorbic acid (AsA) is an important antioxidant in the eye. Ascorbic acid is usually transported by sodium-dependent AsA transporters (SVCTs), and dehydroascorbic acid (DHA) by glucose transporters (GLUTs).
