Impact of dietary manganese on intestinal barrier and inflammatory response in broilers challenged with Salmonella Typhimurium [PDF]

, 2020
Growing concern for public health and food safety has prompted a special interest in developing nutritional strategies for removing waterborne and foodborne pathogens, including Salmonella.

Melatonin alleviates brain and peripheral tissue edema in a neonatal rat model of hypoxic-ischemic brain damage: the involvement of edema related proteins

BMC Pediatrics, 2017
Background Previous studies have indicated edema may be involved in the pathophysiology following hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE), and melatonin may exhibit neuro-protection against brain insults.

Enhancing Selective Brain Cancer Therapy: Integrating Nanomedicine and Molecular Dynamics to Target the Cancerous Lipid Composition

Nano Select, EarlyView.
Improving selectivity within therapeutic design is critical to ensure targeted delivery to brain tumors. Targeting the cellular membrane composition distinctive of the blood–brain barrier and brain cancer cells is explored in this review. Nanomedicine can be utilized for precise tumor recognition, and detailed mechanistic interactions of therapeutics ...

A Simulated Microgravity Environment Causes a Sustained Defect in Epithelial Barrier Function. [PDF]

, 2019
Intestinal epithelial cell (IEC) junctions constitute a robust barrier to invasion by viruses, bacteria and exposure to ingested agents. Previous studies showed that microgravity compromises the human immune system and increases enteropathogen virulence.

Epigenetic Dysregulation of the NKX2‐1/SPDEF Axis Drives Persistent Goblet Cell Differentiation and Epithelial Barrier Dysfunction in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Respirology, EarlyView.
This study investigated airway epithelial barrier dysfunction persistence in ex‐smokers with COPD and underlying mechanisms using single‐cell RNA and ATAC sequencing. Epigenetic NKX2‐1/SPDEF dysregulation maintains goblet cell hyperplasia and barrier dysfunction despite long‐term smoking cessation.

Brain Pericytes and Wnt/β‐Catenin Signaling Induce Functional Blood–Brain Barrier Phenotype in Human iPSC‐Derived Model

Small Methods, EarlyView.
This study shows that human iPSC‐derived endothelial cells acquire a functional blood–brain barrier phenotype when co‐cultured with brain pericytes and stimulated with CHIR‐99021, a Wnt/β‐catenin activator. This model recapitulates key barrier properties, inflammatory responses, and transcriptomic features of the native human BBB, offering new ...

The kidney tight junction [PDF]

, 2014
The tight junction is an important subcellular organelle which plays a vital role in epithelial barrier function. Claudin, as the integral membrane component of tight junctions, creates a paracellular transport pathway for various ions to be reabsorbed ...

Cellular Stress, Inflammation and Barrier Damage in Gut Epithelial Cells Caused by Aspartame

Allergy, EarlyView.
This study shows that aspartame, at dietary‐relevant doses, induces cytotoxicity, cellular distress associated with endoplasmic reticulum stress, oxidative stress, DNA replication and repair mechanism disturbance culminating in epithelial barrier damage.
