Anthocyanins protect the gastrointestinal tract from high fat diet-induced alterations in redox signaling, barrier integrity and dysbiosis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The gastrointestinal (GI) tract can play a critical role in the development of pathologies associated with overeating, overweight and obesity. We previously observed that supplementation with anthocyanins (AC) (particularly glycosides of cyanidin and ...

Loss of occludin leads to the progression of human breast cancer [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Medicine, 2010
Occludin is an integral membrane protein localised at tight junctions (TJs). It has become clear that the TJ is an important structure that cancer cells must overcome in order to metastasize successfully. The purpose of this study was to elucidate the importance of the expression of occludin in human breast cancer.

Methylglyoxal Accumulation is Associated with Brain Inflammation after Myocardial Infarction with Sex and Regional Differences

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies that methylglyoxal may play an important role in heart‐brain interactions after myocardial infarction. Myocardial infarction leads to increased levels of methylglyoxal‐derived advanced glycation end‐products (MG‐H1) in the brain of mice, which is associated with loss of blood‐brain barrier integrity and neuroinflammation ...

Gasdermin D‐Mediated Release of IL‐33 Results in Fetal Brain Developmental Abnormalities During Maternal Colitis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Under colitis, Gsdmd mediates the release of IL‐33 from the epithelium of pregnant mice. IL‐33 can cross the placenta and enhance the proliferative capacity of neural stem cells, ultimately resulting in behavioral deficits in the offspring. Excessive pyroptosis in the colonic epithelium also triggers the translocation of LPS, which in turn increases ...

Selected Serum Biomarkers in Patients with Relapsing-Remitting Multiple Sclerosis—A 3-Year Prospective Pilot Study

open access: yesMedical Sciences
Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate the significance of serum concentrations of the inflammatory marker osteopontin, the blood–brain barrier damage marker occludin, and the neurodegeneration marker neurofilament light chain (NFL) in ...

Protective effect of bile acids on the onset of fructose-induced hepatic steatosis in mice

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2010
Fructose intake is being discussed as a key dietary factor in the development of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Bile acids have been shown to modulate energy metabolism. We tested the effects of bile acids on fructose-induced hepatic steatosis.

Cytokine tuning of intestinal epithelial function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The intestine serves as both our largest single barrier to the external environment and the host of more immune cells than any other location in our bodies.

A Soft Matrix Microenvironment Promotes Laterally Spreading Tumors via Oxidative Phosphorylation‐Dependent Cell Adhesion

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Laterally spreading tumors (LSTs) are precancerous colorectal lesions characterized by a flat morphology. This study reveals a mechanochemical pathway through which a soft matrix microenvironment diminishes spatial constraints in intestinal adenomas. This process promotes deficiencies in tight junction proteins, mediated by the mechanoreceptor ADORA2B ...

Altered Expression of Intestinal Tight Junctions in Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease: A Pathogenetic Mechanism of Intestinal Hyperpermeability

open access: yesBiomedicines
Background: Systemic inflammation in chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated (as a cause or effect) with intestinal barrier dysfunction and increased gut permeability, with mechanisms not yet fully understood.

Tyrosine-Based Signals Regulate the Assembly of Daple⋅PARD3 Complex at Cell-Cell Junctions. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Polarized distribution of organelles and molecules inside a cell is vital for a range of cellular processes and its loss is frequently encountered in disease.
