Pectin limits epithelial barrier disruption by <i>Citrobacter rodentium</i> through anti-microbial effects
نویسندگان
چکیده
Pectins inhibit the growth of C. rodentium in vitro, preventing attachment rodentium to CMT93 epithelial cells. Through these antimicrobial effects, pectins protect epithelium from rodentium-induced barrier dysfunction and damage.

Blood Brain Barrier Disruption by Focused Ultrasound and Microbubbles: A Numerical Study on Mechanical Effects
Introduction: Microbubbles are widely used as contrast agent in diagnostic ultrasound. Recently they have shown good potential for applications in the therapeutic field such as drug delivery to the brain. Recent studies have shown focused ultrasound in conjunction with injected micro-bubbles could temporarily disrupt blood-brain barrier and let therapeutic agents transport into...
متن کاملAnti-microbial Effects
The research studied the antibacterial properties of five essential oils (EO) on Escherichia coli O157:H7. The results show that oregano and thyme EO have significant in vitro colicidal and colistatic properties and are exhibited in a broad temperature range. The effects were greatly improved by the addition of agar as stabilizer. Bay and clove bud EO are shown less active in reducing the numbe...

Benencia, F. (1999). Antiviral activity of sandalwood oil against Herpes simplex viruses-1 and -2. Phytomedicine 6(2), 119-23. The study tested the antiviral activity of sandalwood oil, the essential oil of Santalum album L against Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) and 2 (HSV-2). Results demonstrated dose-dependent effect of sandalwood oil in inhibiting the replication of virus, and more sign...
متن کاملA novel mechanism for gut barrier dysfunction by dietary fat: epithelial disruption by hydrophobic bile acids.
Impairment of gut barrier is associated with a fat-rich diet, but mechanisms are unknown. We have earlier shown that dietary fat modifies fecal bile acids in mice, decreasing the proportion of ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) vs. deoxycholic acid (DCA). To clarify the potential role of bile acids in fat-induced barrier dysfunction, we here investigated how physiological concentrations of DCA and UDC...
متن کاملDisruption of epithelial barrier integrity by Salmonella enterica serovar typhimurium requires geranylgeranylated proteins.
Epithelial cells that line the human intestinal mucosa constitute the initial sites of host invasion by bacterial pathogens. A number of bacteria, such as Salmonella and Yersinia spp., have been shown to disrupt the integrity of the epithelial barrier, although little is known about the mechanisms underlying that effect. We found that polarized MDCK-1 epithelial cells infected with invasive Sal...
