TNFAIP3 maintains intestinal barrier function and supports epithelial cell tight junctions. [PDF]
Tight junctions between intestinal epithelial cells mediate the permeability of the intestinal barrier, and loss of intestinal barrier function mediated by TNF signaling is associated with the inflammatory pathophysiology observed in Crohn's disease and ...

Logistics and technique for combined hepatic-intestinal retrieval [PDF]
During a 13-month period, en bloc liver-small bowel cadaveric grafts were procured for seven children and one adult. All liver grafts functioned immediately, and all but one of the recipient patients recovered.

Deciphering the complex signalling systems that regulate intestinal epithelial cell death processes and shedding [PDF]
Intestinal epithelial cells play a fundamental role in maintaining homeostasis. Shedding of intestinal cells in a controlled manner is critical to maintenance of barrier function.

AHR in the intestinal microenvironment: safeguarding barrier function
Mammalian aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) is a ligand-dependent transcription factor that belongs to the basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH)-PAS family of transcription factors, which are evolutionarily conserved environmental sensors. In the absence of ligands, AHR resides in the cytoplasm in a complex with molecular chaperones such as HSP90, XAP2 and p23 ...

Biomarkers for monitoring intestinal health in poultry : present status and future perspectives [PDF]
Intestinal health is determined by host (immunity, mucosal barrier), nutritional, microbial and environmental factors. Deficiencies in intestinal health are associated with shifts in the composition of the intestinal microbiome (dysbiosis), leakage of ...

Advances in Energy Metabolism Regulation of Intestinal Stem Cell Function and the Therapeutic Advantages of Traditional Chinese Medicine [PDF]
Intestinal stem cells are an important part of maintaining the stability of intestinal barrier function, which is closely related to intestinal homeostasis, intestinal epithelial renewal, and repair of intestinal damage.

A fixed combination of probiotics and herbal extracts attenuates intestinal barrier dysfunction from inflammatory stress in an in vitro model using Caco-2 cells. [PDF]
Background: Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (IBD), are considered a growing global disease, with about ten million people being affected worldwide. Maintenance of intestinal barrier integrity is crucial for preventing IBD onset and exacerbations. Some recent

The influence of Akkermansia muciniphila on intestinal barrier function
Intestinal barriers play a crucial role in human physiology, both in homeostatic and pathological conditions. Disruption of the intestinal barrier is a significant factor in the pathogenesis of gastrointestinal inflammatory diseases, such as inflammatory

Intestinal barrier function in health and gastrointestinal disease [PDF]
AbstractDefects in intestinal barrier function are associated with diseases of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. There is growing evidence that increases in intestinal permeability plays a pathogenic role in diseases, such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and celiac disease, and functional bowel disorders, such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). This
