Journal ArticleDOI
Changes in expression and distribution of claudin 2, 5 and 8 lead to discontinuous tight junctions and barrier dysfunction in active Crohn’s disease
Sebastian Zeissig,Nataly Bürgel,Dorothee Günzel,Jan F. Richter,Joachim Mankertz,Ulrich Wahnschaffe,Anton J. Kroesen,Martin Zeitz,Michael Fromm,Joerg D. Schulzke +9 more
TL;DR: Upregulation of pore-forming claudin 2 and downregulation and redistribution of sealing claudins 5 and 8 lead to altered tight junction structure and pronounced barrier dysfunction already in mild to moderately active Crohn’s disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Celiac disease–like abnormalities in a subgroup of patients with irritable bowel syndrome
TL;DR: HLA-DQ2 expression and increased intestinal cd-associated antibodies are markers that can identify latent/potential cd in a subgroup of IBS patients who consequently appear to profit from a gluten-free diet.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of chronic Giardia lamblia infection on epithelial transport and barrier function in human duodenum.
Hanno Troeger,H. J. Epple,Thomas Schneider,Ulrich Wahnschaffe,Reiner Ullrich,Gerd-Dieter Burchard,Tomas Jelinek,Martin Zeitz,Michael Fromm,Joerg-Dieter Schulzke +9 more
TL;DR: G lamblia infection causes epithelial barrier dysfunction owing to down regulation of the tight junction protein claudin 1 and increased epithelial apoptoses and the mechanisms of diarrhoea in human chronic giardiasis comprise leak flux, malabsorptive and secretory components.
Journal ArticleDOI
Predictors of clinical response to gluten-free diet in patients diagnosed with diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome.
TL;DR: C celiac disease-associated serum IgG and HLA-DQ2 expression can identify likely responders to gluten-free diet in d-IBS patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pancreatic Pseudocysts: Observation, Endoscopic Drainage, or Resection?
TL;DR: An interdisciplinary approach is best suited for the safe and effective stage-specific treatment of pancreatic pseudocysts.
