Epithelial Barriers in Intestinal Inflammation
Antioxidants & Redox Signaling, 2011The 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.

Microbes, intestinal inflammation and probiotics
Expert Review of Gastroenterology & Hepatology, 2012Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is known for causing disturbed homeostatic balance among the intestinal immune compartment, epithelium and microbiota. Owing to the emergence of IBD as a major cause of morbidity and mortality, great efforts have been put into understanding the sequence of intestinal inflammatory events.

Intestinal inflammation and pain management
Current Opinion in Pharmacology, 2015Intestinal inflammation results in the production of inflammatory pain-inducing mediators that may directly activate colon sensory neurons. Endogenous opioids produced by mucosal effector CD4(+) T lymphocytes identified as colitogenic may paradoxically counterbalance the local pro-algesic effect of inflammatory mediators by acting on opioid receptors ...

Nutritional regulators of intestinal inflammation
Current Opinion in Gastroenterology, 2019Recent knowledge teaches us that food is one of the most important environmental factors affecting our health from disease prevention to cause. Food is one of the key players in the normal gut microenvironment, affecting microbial composition, function, gut barrier and host immunity.

Intestinal stem cells and inflammation
Current Opinion in Pharmacology, 2015The intestinal epithelium is renewed every 3-5 days from at least two principal stem cell pools. Actively cycling crypt based columnar (CBC) Lgr5(+) cells and slower cycling Bmi1-expressing or Krt19-expressing cells maintain the small intestinal and colonic epithelium in homeostasis and injury.

[Acute intestinal inflammation].
Der Radiologe, 2010Acute intestinal inflammation is common. In most cases the medical history, clinical investigations and laboratory parameters alone are not sufficient for a conclusive diagnosis because of the wide variety of differential diagnoses and the striking similarity of symptoms. Modern imaging methods can help to clarify the diagnosis and multi-slice CT (MSCT)

Tolerance in Intestinal Inflammation and Cancer
Current Drug Targets, 2008In the human body, mucosal surfaces of the intestinal tract are the largest and one of the most complex parts of the immune system. These surfaces are covered by a layer of epithelial cells which allows efficient absorption of nutrients but also serves to separate the intestine from an environment loaded with potential harmful agents.

l-Carnitine and Intestinal Inflammation
2011The intestinal barrier is one of the most dynamic surfaces of the body. It is here where a single layer of epithelial cells mediates the intricate encounters that occur between the host's immune system and a multitude of potential threats present in the intestinal lumen.
