TLDR
The correlation between increased intestinal permeability and disease has caught the attention of the public, leading to a rise in popularity of the diagnosis of "leaky gut syndrome," which encompasses a range of systemic disorders.

Interfering With Inflammation: Heterogeneous Effects of Interferons in Graft- Versus-Host Disease of the Gastrointestinal Tract and Inflammatory Bowel Disease

TL;DR: A review on the role of type I, II and III interferons in graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) can be found in this article.

Yap1-driven intestinal repair is controlled by group 3 innate lymphoid cells

TL;DR: The findings reveal that ILC3-driven intestinal repair entails distinct transcriptional networks to control stem cell maintenance and epithelial regeneration which implies that tissue repair and crypt proliferation can be influenced by targeting innate immune cells independent of the well-established effects of IL-22.

Psychologist attitudes, self-reported competence and practices associated with the use of dietary interventions for children presenting for psychological treatment

TL;DR: Despite limited evidence, children with neurodevelopmental and psychological disorders may be having dietary interventions incorporated into treatment as mentioned in this paper. But little is known about psychologists' role in children's dietary interventions.

Claudin Barriers on the Brink: How Conflicting Tissue and Cellular Priorities Drive IBD Pathogenesis

TL;DR: In this article , the claudin family of tight junction proteins are discussed as they are a fundamental component of intestinal barriers, leading to the supposition that intestinal barrier dysfunction exacerbates immune hyperactivity and disease.

Microbial translocation is a cause of systemic immune activation in chronic HIV infection

TL;DR: It is shown that increased lipopolysaccharide is bioactive in vivo and correlates with measures of innate and adaptive immune activation, which establish a mechanism for chronic immune activation in the context of a compromised gastrointestinal mucosal surface and provide new directions for therapeutic interventions that modify the consequences of acute HIV infection.
Journal ArticleDOI

Intestinal mucosal barrier function in health and disease.

TL;DR: Recent advances have uncovered mechanisms by which the intestinal mucosal barrier is regulated in response to physiological and immunological stimuli, along with evidence that this regulation shapes mucosal immune responses in the gut and, when dysfunctional, may contribute to disease.

Microbial translocation is a cause of systemic immune activation in chronic HIV infection

TL;DR: It is shown that circulating microbial products, probably derived from the gastrointestinal tract, are a cause of HIV-related systemic immune activation and increased lipopolysaccharide is bioactive in vivo and correlates with measures of innate and adaptive immune activation.

The inner of the two Muc2 mucin-dependent mucus layers in colon is devoid of bacteria

TL;DR: Findings show that the Muc2 mucin can build a mucus barrier that separates bacteria from the colon epithelia and suggest that defects in this mucus can cause colon inflammation.

Innate immunity and intestinal microbiota in the development of Type 1 diabetes

TL;DR: It is found that MyD88 deficiency changes the composition of the distal gut microbiota, and that exposure to the microbiota of specific pathogen-free MyD 88-negative NOD donors attenuates T1D in germ-free NOD recipients.
