Intestinal epithelium in inflammatory bowel disease [PDF]
The intestinal epithelium has a strategic position as a protective physical barrier to luminal microbiota and actively contributes to the mucosal immune system. This barrier is mainly formed by a monolayer of specialized intestinal epithelial cells (IECs)

Intestinal fatty acid binding protein regulates mitochondrion β-oxidation and cholesterol uptake
The role of intestinal fatty acid binding protein (I-FABP) in lipid metabolism remains elusive. To address this issue, normal human intestinal epithelial cells (HIEC-6) were transfected with cDNA to overexpress I-FABP and compared with cells treated with

Summary: Upon exposure to a bacterial pore-forming toxin, enterocytes rapidly purge their apical cytoplasm into the gut lumen, resulting in a thin intestinal epithelium.

LRH-1 mitigates intestinal inflammatory disease by maintaining epithelial homeostasis and cell survival. [PDF]
Epithelial dysfunction and crypt destruction are defining features of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). However, current IBD therapies targeting epithelial dysfunction are lacking.

Surface Structure of Intestinal Epithelium
Summary Specimens of human and rat small intestine were studied by scanning electron microscopy. Human specimens were examined intact, while rat specimens were studied after partial or complete dissociation of epithelium from the underlying villus core. The present technique confirms, in a simple, direct way, previous concepts of the three-dimensional
