Intestinal barrier function

Current Opinion in Clinical Nutrition and Metabolic Care, 2002
Intestinal barrier function regulates transport and host defense mechanisms at the mucosal interface with the outside world. Transcellular and paracellular fluxes are tightly controlled by membrane pumps, ion channels and tight junctions, adapting permeability to physiological needs.

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 ...

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 ...

Epithelial Barriers in Intestinal Inflammation

Antioxidants & Redox Signaling, 2011
The gastrointestinal epithelium transports solutes and water between lumen and blood and at the same time forms a barrier between these compartments. This highly selective and regulated barrier permits ions, water, and nutrients to be absorbed, but normally restricts the passage of harmful molecules, bacteria, viruses and other pathogens.

Intestinal Barrier and Behavior

2016
The intestinal barrier function contributes to gut homeostasis by modulating absorption of water, electrolytes, and nutrients from the lumen into the circulation while restricting the passage of noxious luminal substances and microorganisms. Chronic conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, and celiac disease are associated ...

The Intestinal Immune Barrier

NeoReviews, 2009
As the largest interface with the external environment, the mature intestinal epithelium has remarkable physiologic responsibilities. The intestine must function first as an organ of absorption and digestion while simultaneously protecting itself from the vast bacterial flora, array of food antigens, and physiochemical stresses caused by digestive and ...
