Role of the Gut Barrier in Acute Pancreatitis

Journal of Clinical Gastroenterology, 2012
The small intestine is one of the distant organs that become damaged during severe acute pancreatitis, due to microcirculation disturbance associated with loss of fluids in the "third space," hypovolemia, splanchnic vasoconstriction, and finally an ischemia-reperfusion injury.

Crosstalk between Resveratrol and Gut Barrier: A Review

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2022
The plant-based nutraceuticals are receiving increasing interest in recent time. The high attraction to the phytochemicals is associated with their anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities, which can lead to reduced risk of the development of cardiovascular and other non-communicable diseases. One of the most disseminated groups of plant bioactives

Kiwifruit, Mucins, and the Gut Barrier

2013
Kiwifruit has long been regarded in China, where it originated from, for its health properties and particularly in relation to digestion and general gut health. There are a number of physical and chemical properties of the fruit, including its dietary fiber content, the presence of raphides, its high water holding capacity and actinidin content, that ...

Alterations of gut barrier and gut microbiota in food restriction, food deprivation and protein-energy wasting

Clinical Nutrition, 2015
Increasing evidence shows that gut microbiota composition is related to changes of gut barrier function including gut permeability and immune function. Gut microbiota is different in obese compared to lean subjects, suggesting that gut microbes are also ...

Biomarkers of gut barrier failure in the ICU

Current Opinion in Critical Care, 2016
Gut barrier failure is associated with bacterial translocation, systemic inflammation, and is presumed to be associated with the development of multiple organ dysfunction syndrome. As the gut barrier function is carried out by a monolayer of enterocytes, a minimum requirement is the integrity of the enterocytes, and controlled paracellular permeability

Probiotics, Gut Inflammation and Barrier Function

Gastroenterology Clinics of North America, 2005
Mucosa of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract function as a barrier excluding and eliminating numerous antigens derived from the external environment. Protection against potentially harmful agents is ensured by numerous nonimmunologic factors, including saliva, gastric acid, peristalsis, mucus, intestinal proteolysis, and epithelial cell membranes with the

The gut vascular barrier: a new player in the gut–liver–brain axis

Trends in Molecular Medicine, 2021
The intestinal barrier protects our body from external insults through specialized cells organized in a multilayered structure that evolved in symbiosis with the resident microbiota. A breach in the outer mucus and epithelium can be transmitted to the inner gut vascular barrier (GVB), leading to systemic dissemination of microbes or microbe-derived ...

THE GUT'S ROLE IN METABOLISM, MUCOSAL BARRIER FUNCTION, AND GUT IMMUNOLOGY

Infectious Disease Clinics of North America, 1999
The gastrointestinal tract functions not only to absorb nutrients, it also plays an important immunologic role during health and critical illness. Under experimental and certain clinical conditions, stimulating the gut attentuates the stress response and avoids mucosal atrophy and increases permeability.

Milk: A Natural Guardian for the Gut Barrier

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry
The gut barrier plays an important role in health maintenance by preventing the invasion of dietary pathogens and toxins. Disruption of the gut barrier can cause severe intestinal inflammation. As a natural source, milk is enriched with many active constituents that contribute to numerous beneficial functions, including immune regulation.
