Intestinal permeability to polyethylene glycol 400 in patients with Crohn's disease
An altered small intestinal permeability has been proposed as an important aetiological factor in the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease. The relevant literature was reviewed. Intestinal permeability to Polyethylene glycol 400 in patients with Crohn' s disease, their relatives and healthy …

Effects of high hydrostatic pressure on immunoreactivity, digestibility and intestinal permeability of major peanut and milk allergens
… allergens on immunoreactivity, digestibility and intestinal permeability were studied in view to reduce their allergic potential. Major peanut allergens (Ara h1, Ara h2, Ara h3 and Ara h6) were purified using a combination of anion exchange chromatography and size exclusion chromatography. The Ara …

Evaluation of spray-dried plasma in milk replacers fed at a high plane of nutrition on performance, intestinal permeability, and morbidity
… (PP) has been shown to improve growth and intestinal function in young calves when included in milk replacers (MR) fed at conventional rates. The use of a PP and wheat blend to replace a portion of whey protein has been shown to perform similarly to an all whey protein control MR. However, …

Effect of yacon flour (Smallanthus sonchifolius) consumption on body weight, body composition, intestinal permeability and metabolic changes in excess body weight adults
… diet on body composition, food intake, intestinal function, biochemical variables concentration, intestinal permeability, fecal short chain fatty acids, oxidative stress and inflammatory markers concentrations in adults with excess body weight. A randomized, parallel arm study involving …

Effects of Nutritional Manipulation on Poultry under Normal and Stressful Conditions
… broiler performance and DFM treatment improved intestinal permeability and nutrient digestibility responses to HS in both experiments but did not improve performance until built up litter was used in Experiment 2. The last objective of this dissertation was to investigate the effects of sulfur …

Relationship of feeding practices, anthropometric status and gut function in infants in Dzimauli Community in South Africa
… milk were the first foods introduced to infants. Intestinal permeability was mostly poor at three months (67.6%) but improved with time as shown by 43.5% by month nine. No significant relationship was observed between any forms of feeding in exception of feeding colostrum which correlated …

Microbial, immunological, phenotypic and genetic markers of risk: aspects of Crohn’s disease that are shared by unaffected siblings
Crohn’s disease (CD) is an incurable intestinal disorder in which an immune response driven by commensal gut microbiota leads to chronic inflammation. Why this occurs in specific individuals is unclear; however, a genetic predisposition is fundamental and relatives of patients with CD are at …

Prebiotic supplementation with inulin and exercise influence gut microbiome composition and metabolic health
… influences on gut microbiome composition, intestinal permeability, insulin sensitivity and metabolic flexibility. Sedentary to recreationally active overweight and obese adults 40-75 years old at-risk for T2D were recruited (n=22) and randomized to either supplementation with inulin, a …

Influences of milk intake and dietary inclusion of a bioactive extract from the olive (Olea europaea) on glucagon-like peptide-2 and its effects on growth and intestinal health of dairy calves
Promotion of intestinal health in preruminant dairy calves is essential for growth and overall health. Yet, a large proportion of dairy calves in the United States is affected by enteric challenges in the preweaning period. Maintenance of intestinal integrity is associated with an intestinal …

Assessment of a Nutritional Rehabilitation Model in Two Modern Broilers and Their Jungle Fowl Ancestor: A Model for Better Understanding Childhood Undernutrition
… villous atrophy, dysbiosis, and increased intestinal permeability. Inclusion of rye in poultry diets induces nutrient deficiencies and increases intestinal permeability, dysbiosis and decreases growth rates. The objective of this dissertation was to determine if chickens consuming a rye …

Role of Myosin Light Chain Kinase in Binge Ethanol and Burn Injury-Induced Intestinal Barrier Dysfunction
… that ethanol increases both pulmonary and gastrointestinal inflammation as well as susceptibility to infection in burn-injured mice; however, the mechanisms of these responses are not entirely known. Moreover, after burn injury, bacteria and their products leak out of the intestinal lumen and …

Effects of fructan source and degree of polymerization on intestinal barrier function and histomorphology characteristics in obese C57BL/6 mice
Obesity is linked to increased intestinal permeability that may contribute to low grade inflammation. Fructan prebiotics have been demonstrated to increase intestinal resistance and decrease systemic inflammation. The objective of this study was to test the effects of prebiotics on intestinal …

Skeletal muscle metabolic adaptations in response to an acute high fat diet
… capacity, insulin resistance, increased gut permeability, inflammation, and other risk factors often preceding metabolic disease states. The disruption of gut function leads to gut permeability and increases endotoxins released into circulation. Endotoxins have been shown to play an important …

From youth to old age: therapeutic potential of microbiota interventions in the gut-brain-axis
… differences between the various age groups. Intestinal permeability and neuronal plasticity were the only modifiable parameters in the elderly. In younger animal prebiotics impact metabolism and inflammation. Polyphenols rich diets (grape pomace and rafuma) significantly alter intestinal …

Corticotropin-releasing factor and acute post-operative gut function in truamatic abdominal injury and elective abdominal surgery
… that peripheral CRF is present in the gastrointestinal tract and associated with inflammatory changes. Critically ill patients frequently display somewhat unexplained gastrointestinal dysfunction including delayed gastric emptying, ileus and increased bowel permeability. The aim of the study …

DIETARY BIOACTIVES IN THE MODULATION OF METABOLIC, FUNCTIONAL AND AGING BIOMARKERS
… health, including cardiometabolic regulation, intestinal function, and healthy aging. In particular, dietary (poly)phenols and xanthines have gained attention for their potential benefits on several metabolic and functional biomarkers. However, the mechanisms are not completely understood and …

The effect of oral glutamine supplementation on gut permeability and heat shock protein regulation in runners with a history of gastrointestinal distress
Gastrointestinal (GI) permeability increases during high intensity exercise leading to endotoxin leakage, and a pro-inflammatory immune response. The purpose of this study are to assess whether oral glutamine supplementation (1) reduces exercise induced permeability through up-regulation of the …

Novel effects of Prefoldin Pathway on Intestinal Homeostasis via Dietary Restriction in Drosophila melanogaster
… the role these subunits play in maintaining intestinal homeostasis is currently unknown. Nor is it known if the expression of these proteins varies in different cell types. My hypothesis was that loss of these subunits would increase intestinal permeability, resulting in a loss of longevity. …
