Elevated Paracellular Glucose Flux across Cystic Fibrosis Airway Epithelial Monolayers Is an Important Factor for Pseudomonas aeruginosa Growth. [PDF]
, 2013 People with cystic fibrosis (CF) who develop related diabetes (CFRD) have accelerated pulmonary decline, increased infection with antibiotic-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa and increased pulmonary exacerbations.

A novel role for aquaporin-5 in enhancing microtubule organization and stability. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Aquaporin-5 (AQP5) is a water-specific channel located on the apical surface of airway epithelial cells. In addition to regulating transcellular water permeability, AQP5 can regulate paracellular permeability, though the mechanisms by which this occurs ...

Paracellular transport through healthy and cystic fibrosis bronchial epithelial cell lines--do we have a proper model? [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 It has been reported recently that the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) besides transcellular chloride transport, also controls the paracellular permeability of bronchial epithelium.

Cellular and Molecular Gastroenterology and Hepatology, 2021 Background & Aims: Tight junctions form a barrier to the paracellular passage of luminal antigens. Although most tight junction proteins reside within the apical tight junction complex, claudin-18 localizes mainly to the basolateral membrane where ...

Paracellular Permeability of Bronchial Epithelium is Controlled by CFTR [PDF]
Cellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2011 In normal airway epithelium, the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) transports Cl(-) ions to the apical surface of the epithelium paralleled by the flow of water through transcellular and paracellular pathways. The hypothesis was tested whether CFTR not only regulates the transcellular but also the paracellular shunt pathway ...

Capacity for absorption of water-soluble secondary metabolites greater in birds than in rodents. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Plant secondary metabolites (SMs) are pervasive in animal foods and potentially influence feeding behavior, interspecies interactions, and the distribution and abundance of animals.

Fecal and Circulating Biomarkers for the Non-Invasive Assessment of Intestinal Permeability
Diagnostics, 2023 The study of intestinal permeability is gaining growing interest due to its relevance in the onset and progression of several gastrointestinal and non-gastrointestinal diseases.
