  1. 11. Colonic barrier function in ulcerative colitis - Interactions between ion and mucus secretion

    Författare :Jenny K Gustafsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; intestine; mucus; ion transport; colitis; CFTR;

    Sammanfattning : Anion and mucus secretions have traditionally been looked upon as two separate parts of the epithelial defense system. The importance of anion secretion has been attributed to its role in creating the driving force for fluid secretion that flushes the epithelium from bacteria, while mucus secretion ensures protection via the mucus layer that forms a physical barrier between the bacteria and the epithelium.

  2. 12. Bacterial epithelial interaction in intestinal inflammation

    Författare :Lina Yakymenko Alkaissi; Åsa Keita; Johan D Söderholm; Maria Magnusson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : The intestine is constantly exposed to bacteria, invading viruses and ingested food. The intestinal barrier serves as a gate preventing passage of harmful components, and at the same time maintaining absorption of nutrients and water. LÄS MER

  3. 13. Role of mast cells and probiotics in the regulation of intestinal barrier function

    Författare :Anders Carlsson; Johan D. Söderholm; Åsa Keita; Karl-Eric Magnusson; Björn Weström; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The intestinal mucosa is the largest contact area and one of the most important barriers to the outside environment. It is highly specialized in aiding us digest and absorb nutrients. It is daily exposed to several potentially dangerous substances and microorganisms, which if they were allowed to pass into the body, could give rise to diseases. LÄS MER

  4. 14. lntestinal microenvironment, epithelial barrier interactions and human milk oligosaccharide supplementation in irritable bowel syndrome

    Författare :Cristina Iribarren; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; colonoids; epithelium; gut microbiota-host interaction; human milk oligosaccharides; intestinal milieu; irritable bowel syndrome; metabolites; microbiota; mucosal border;

    Sammanfattning : Alterations of the microbiota-host interactions at the mucosal border may be of importance in symptom generation in irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), a disorder of gut-brain interaction. Hence, microbiota-targeted interventions may benefit some patients by beneficially modulating the intestinal microenvironment. LÄS MER

  5. 15. On the Regulation of the Epithelial Paracellular Permeability

    Författare :Pia Nybom; Janove Sehlin; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : The epithelia of for instance the small intestine(s) plays a crucial role in the vectorial transport of nutrients and other solutes from the lumen to underlying body fluids, i.e. blood and lymph. LÄS MER
