Organization of the human intestine at single-cell resolution
Intestinal cell types are organized into distinct neighbourhoods and communities within the healthy human intestine, with distinct immunological niches. The intestine is a complex organ that promotes digestion, extracts nutrients, participates in immune ...

Interaction Between the Microbiota, Epithelia, and Immune Cells in the Intestine.
The gastrointestinal tract harbors numerous commensal bacteria, referred to as the microbiota, that benefit host health by digesting dietary components and eliminating pathogens. The intestinal microbiota maintains epithelial barrier integrity and shapes

Self-reinoculation with fecal flora changes microbiota density and composition leading to an altered bile-acid profile in the mouse small intestine [PDF]
Background: The upper gastrointestinal tract plays a prominent role in human physiology as the primary site for enzymatic digestion and nutrient absorption, immune sampling, and drug uptake.

Regulation of bicarbonate secretion in marine fish intestine by the calcium-sensing receptor [PDF]
In marine fish, high epithelial intestinal HCO3- secretion generates luminal carbonate precipitates of divalent cations that play a key role in water and ion homeostasis.

Effect of ischemia on the canine large bowel: A comparison with the small intestine [PDF]
Mucosal injury caused by ischemia and reperfusion has been well documented with the small intestine, but little is known about the colon. In the present study, the effect of warm and cold ischemia on the canine colon was studied and compared to that on ...

A complex human gut microbiome cultured in an anaerobic intestine-on-a-chip
The diverse bacterial populations that comprise the commensal microbiome of the human intestine play a central role in health and disease. A method that sustains complex microbial communities in direct contact with living human intestinal cells and their

Viable bacterial colonization is highly limited in the human intestine in utero
Mucosal immunity develops in the human fetal intestine by 11–14 weeks of gestation, yet whether viable microbes exist in utero and interact with the intestinal immune system is unknown.
