Regulation of psoriasis, colitis, and the intestinal microbiota by clusterin
Psoriasis, a chronic and systemic inflammatory disorder characterized by activation of the interleukin (IL)-23/IL-17 axis, may be associated with the intestinal microbiota through the so-called “gut–skin axis.” Clusterin is a glycoprotein ubiquitously ...

Reduced diversity of intestinal T-cell receptor repertoire in patients with Crohn’s disease
BackgroundThe intestinal microenvironment directly determines the human T-cell receptor (TCR) repertoire. Despite its extreme diversity, TCR repertoire analysis may provide a better understanding of the immune system in patients with inflammatory bowel ...

Little is known about the regulatory effect of microbiota on the proliferation and regeneration of ISCs. Here, we found that L. reuteri stimulated the proliferation of intestinal epithelia by increasing the expression of R-spondins and thus activating ...

The Caco-2 monolayer is the most widely used in vitro model of the human intestinal mucosa to study absorption. However, models lack communication from other cells present in the native intestine, such as signals from fibroblasts in the lamina propria ...

The intestinal γδ T cells: functions in the gut and in the distant organs
Located in the frontline against the largest population of microbiota, the intestinal mucosa of mammals has evolved to become an effective immune system.

IgG “Detoxes” the Intestinal Mucosa [PDF]
Secretory IgA is important in mucosal defense, but other, incompletely understood effectors exist. In this issue of Cell Host & Microbe, Kamada et al. (2015) show that IgG antibodies are produced against surface virulence factors of an intestinal attaching/effacing pathogen, bind to bacteria localized at the epithelium, and direct their destruction by ...

Akkermansia muciniphila, a novel mucin-degrading bacterium, has been demonstrated to prevent the development of obesity and related complications. However, whether it can protect poultry from intestinal mucosal damage by enteropathogens has never been ...

To explore the effect of selenium-enriched yeast (SeY) on intestinal barrier functions in weaned pigs upon oxidative stress, a 2 × 2 factorial design was utilized and thirty-two pigs were randomly assigned into four groups.

Interaction of Clostridioides difficile spores with the intestinal mucosa contributes to the persistence and recurrence of the infection. Advanced age is one of the main risk factors for C. difficile infection and recurrence of the disease.

Myosin light chain kinase mediates intestinal barrier disruption following burn injury. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Severe burn injury results in the loss of intestinal barrier function, however, the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Myosin light chain (MLC) phosphorylation mediated by MLC kinase (MLCK) is critical to the pathophysiological regulation ...
