The Role of Intestinal Health

2021
An intact intestinal epithelium and a balanced microbiota are prerequisites for the proper absorption and utilization of nutrients. Epithelial damage or dysbiosis can result in non-celiac non-wheat allergy wheat sensitivity.

Intestinal stem cells and intestinal homeostasis in health and in inflammation: A review

Surgery, 2016
The human intestine is a complex group of organs, highly specialized in processing food and providing nutrients to the body. It is under constant threat from microbials and toxins and has therefore developed a number of protective mechanisms. One important mechanism is the constant shedding of epithelial cells into the lumen; another is the production ...

Intestinal health

2015
Livestock production is changing worldwide. It is also the case that the ban on antibiotic growth promoters in Europe, the shift in animal production centres to Brazil or Eastern Europe, increase in demand for traceability and natural production, and the emergence of new diseases, are all forcing livestock producers to adapt new husbandry, management ...

Faecalibacterium prausnitzii and human intestinal health

Current Opinion in Microbiology, 2013
Faecalibacterium prausnitzii is the most abundant bacterium in the human intestinal microbiota of healthy adults, representing more than 5% of the total bacterial population. Over the past five years, an increasing number of studies have clearly described the importance of this highly metabolically active commensal bacterium as a component of the ...

Intestinal health in carnivores

2015
The knowledge on the influence of gastro-intestinal (GI) microbiota on the health status of humans and animals is rapidly expanding. A balanced microbiome may provide multiple benefits to the host, like triggering and stimulation of the immune system, acting as a barrier against possible pathogenic micro-organism, and providing energy and nutritional ...

Intestinal absorption in health and disease: micronutrients

Best Practice & Research Clinical Gastroenterology, 2003
The main theme of this chapter concerns the precise biochemical mechanisms involved in stages up to, and including, gastrointestinal absorption of vitamins and certain selected minerals. Essential data regarding sequential events, immediately following absorption of these micronutrients, are also included.

The Human Intestinal Microbiome in Health and Disease

New England Journal of Medicine, 2016
The large majority of studies on the role of the microbiome in the pathogenesis of disease are correlative and preclinical; several have influenced clinical practice.

Amino Acids in Intestinal Physiology and Health

2020
Dietary protein digestion is an efficient process resulting in the absorption of amino acids by epithelial cells, mainly in the jejunum. Some amino acids are extensively metabolized in enterocytes supporting their high energy demand and/or production of bioactive metabolites such as glutathione or nitric oxide. In contrast, other amino acids are mainly

Understanding the Intestinal Microbiome in Health and Disease

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Equine Practice, 2018
This article provides readers with the basic concepts necessary to understand studies using recent molecular methods performed in intestinal microbiome assessment, with special emphasis on the high throughput sequencing. This review also summarizes the current knowledge on this topic and discusses future insights on the interaction between the ...

Intestinal absorption in health and disease—sugars

Best Practice & Research Clinical Gastroenterology, 2003
Carbohydrates are mostly digested to glucose, fructose and galactose before absorption by the small intestine. Absorption across the brush border and basolateral membranes of enterocytes is mediated by sodium-dependent and -independent membrane proteins.
