TLDR
In this paper, the physicico-chemical properties of dietary fiber have been investigated and the main contributors to metabolic effects (glucose and lipid metabolisms) whereas fermentation pattern, bulking effect and particle size are strongly involved in effects on colonic function.About:

Determination of the Pore Size of Cell Walls of Living Plant Cells
TL;DR: Results indicate that molecules with diameters larger than these pores would be restricted in their ability to penetrate such a cell wall, and that such a wall may represent a more significant barrier to cellular communication than has been previously assumed.

Hydration Properties of Dietary Fibre and Resistant Starch: a European Collaborative Study
James A. Robertson,François Le Deschault de Monredon,Patrick Dysseler,Fabienne Guillon,Renato Amadò,Jean-François Thibault +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors defined and measured hydration properties related to the fiber matrix in 19 European laboratories using common methods and the substrates: resistant starches, pea hull, citrus pulp and apple pulp.

Direct visualization of cross-links in the primary plant cell wall
TL;DR: A positive role for hemicellulose is proposed in maintaining the ordered spacing of cellulose micronbrils, perhaps regulating wall porosity and strength.
