Products of cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 contribute to mucosal defense. Acetylation of COX-2 by aspirin has been shown to result in the generation of 15(R)-epi-lipoxin A4, which exerts protective effects in the stomach. In gastritis, it is possible that lipoxin A4 makes a greater contribution to mucosal defense. We tested this hypothesis in the rat, by using the iodoacetamide-induced gastritis model....

The intestine is an extremely complex living system that participates in the protection of the host through a strong defense against aggressions from the external environment. This defensive task is based on 3 constituents that are in permanent contact and dialog with each other: the microflora, mucosal barrier, and local immune system. We review herein current knowledge about these important f...

Normal luminal bacteria and their products play a role in experimental colitis and inflammatory bowel disease. However, what molecules from what cells are responsible for mounting and maintaining the mucosal defense against luminal flora is still uncertain. The aim of this study was to identify epithelial gene products involved in mucosal defense and inflammation associated with ubiquitous ente...

Mucosal surfaces provide first-line defense against microbial invasion through their complex secretions. The antimicrobial activities of proteins in these secretions have been well delineated, but the contributions of lipids to mucosal defense have not been defined. We found that normal human nasal fluid contains all major lipid classes (in micrograms per milliliter), as well as lipoproteins an...

The mucosal barrier plays an integral function in human health as it is the primary defense against pathogens, and provides a critical transition between the external environment and the human internal body. In the context of HIV infection, the most relevant mucosal surfaces include those of the gastrointestinal (GI) and genital tract compartments. Several components help maintain the effective...

The mucosal immune system consists of molecules, cells, and organized lymphoid structures intended to provide immunity to pathogens that impinge upon mucosal surfaces. Mucosal infection by intracellular pathogens results in the induction of cell- mediated immunity, as manifested by CD4-positive (CD4 + ) T helper-type 1 cells, as well as CD8 + cytotoxic T-lymphocytes. These responses are normall...
