Antrodia cinnamomea reduces obesity and modulates the gut microbiota in high-fat diet-fed mice. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
BackgroundObesity is associated with gut microbiota dysbiosis, disrupted intestinal barrier and chronic inflammation. Given the high and increasing prevalence of obesity worldwide, anti-obesity treatments that are safe, effective and widely available ...

Atractylodes Macrocephala Polysaccharides Ameliorate Diabetic Hepatorenal Injury and Remodel Gut Microbiota in Mice

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
Atractylodes macrocephala polysaccharides alleviate diabetic liver and kidney injury in HFD/STZ‐induced mice by improving gut microbiota composition, restoring intestinal barrier function, and partially correcting disturbed unsaturated fatty acid metabolism.

Crocin Supplementation Mitigates DSS‐Induced Ulcerative Colitis by Promoting Autophagy and Modulating Gut Microbiota in Mice

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
Crocin enhanced intestinal barrier integrity and alleviated colonic inflammation in DSS‐induced UC mice. Crocin promoted autophagy by targeting the AMPK/mTOR pathway. Crocin reshaped gut microbiota composition of UC mice. ABSTRACT Crocin has been widely recognized for its anti‐inflammatory and antioxidant properties.

Therapeutic Galectin‐3 Apheresis Improves Sepsis Outcomes Through Coordinated Neutrophil Modulation and Endothelial Barrier Preservation: A Translational Study

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2026.
Gal‐3 apheresis reduces neutrophil hyperactivation (CXCL2/CXCL8, MPO, NETs), preserves endothelial barrier function (tight junctions, vWF/VCAM‐1/ICAM‐1), and attenuates PI3K/AKT/HIF‐1α signaling. These coordinated effects significantly improve hemodynamics, reduce pulmonary edema (ELWI), lower vasopressor and fluid requirements, and increase survival ...

Blood–Brain Barrier: Structure, Function, Diseases, and Drug Delivery Systems

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2026.
This graphical abstract illustrates how blood–brain barrier‐targeted nanomedicine integrates diverse nanocarrier platforms with mechanism‐based therapeutic strategies to overcome delivery barriers in ischemic stroke, enabling targeted modulation of oxidative stress, inflammation, excitotoxicity, and neuronal survival.

Charakterisierung der Struktur, Funktion und Wechselwirkungen der Tight Junction Proteine Occludin und Zonula Occludens 1

open access: yes, 2009
Die tight junction schränken die Diffusion durch den parazellulären Raum in Epithel- und Endothelzellschichten für viele Moleküle stark ein. Dadurch behindern sie die Aufnahme von wasserlöslichen Medikamenten in das dahinterliegende Gewebe. Zwei Proteine, die am tight junction Aufbau mitwirken, sind Zonula Occludens Protein 1 (ZO-1) und Occludin.

Synergistic antiviral activity against human adenovirus through combination of itraconazole and brincidofovir

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 7, Page 1578-1601, April 2026.
Background and Purpose Human adenovirus (HAdV) causes respiratory or gastrointestinal tract infections depending on the virus subtype. While HAdV infections are generally self‐limiting in immunocompetent people, they can result in significant morbidity and mortality in immunocompromised adults and children.

EHD4 and ASAP2 are critical negative regulators of the claudin‐5‐based endothelial barrier

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 7, Page 2067-2085, April 2026.
Cell‐surface CLDN‐5 protein levels can be evaluated using a probe that can bind to the extracellular domains of CLDN‐5. A probe derived from Clostridium perfringens enterotoxin allows us to isolate cells with high CLDN‐5 protein levels from a knockout cell library.

Immunomodulatory effects of cathelicidin in the gut–brain axis: A novel link between mucosal immunity and neuroinflammation

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 4, Page 1733-1745, 1 April 2026.
Abstract Cathelicidins are evolutionarily conserved host defence peptides known for their dual antimicrobial and immunomodulatory functions. Among them, LL‐37 in humans and CRAMP in rodents have emerged as crucial regulators of both mucosal immunity and CNS inflammation.
