Zonulin Upregulation Is Associated With Increased Gut Permeability in Subjects With Type 1 Diabetes and Their Relatives

TL;DR: Zonulin upregulation seems to precede the onset of the disease, providing a possible link between increased intestinal permeability, environmental exposure to non–self antigens, and the development of autoimmunity in genetically susceptible individuals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Alterations of the intestinal barrier in patients with autism spectrum disorders and in their first-degree relatives.

TL;DR: It is indicated that measuring IPT could help to identify a subgroup of patients with autism who could benefit from a gluten-free diet and indicate the presence of an intestinal (tight-junction linked) hereditary factor in the families of subjects with autism.
Journal ArticleDOI

Divergence of gut permeability and mucosal immune gene expression in two gluten-associated conditions: celiac disease and gluten sensitivity

TL;DR: This study shows that the two gluten-associated disorders, CD and GS, are different clinical entities, and it contributes to the characterization of GS as a condition associated with prevalent gluten-induced activation of innate, rather than adaptive, immune responses in the absence of detectable changes in mucosal barrier function.
