Nutritional factors and immune functions of gut epithelium.
The intestinal epithelium acts as a barrier to the external environment contained within the lumen of the gut. It also transports solutes for nutrition and for immunological surveillance. The present review develops the hypothesis that changes in diet, through the composition of the lumen environment, alter the expression of genes in the epithelium. These genes include those that encode for pro...
متن کاملa contrastive study of rhetorical functions of citation in iranian and international elt scopus journals
writing an academic article requires the researchers to provide support for their works by learning how to cite the works of others. various studies regarding the analysis of citation in m.a theses have been done, while little work has been done on comparison of citations among elt scopus journal articles, and so the dearth of research in this area demands for further investigation into citatio...
Nutritional Status and Immune Functions in Maintenance Hemodialysis Patients
Epidemiological studies suggest various kinds of immune dysregulation in hemodialysis (HD) patients. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between immune functions and nutritional status of HD patients. We studied 54 patients with ESRD on chronic HD, included 34 females and 20 males with mean age 46.6 +/- 16.3 (18-77) years. We measured the height and dry weight of all patie...
متن کاملImmunological functions of the gut in relation to nutritional state and mode of delivery of nutrients.
Gut immunology encompasses the need for local cellular immunity and prevention of systemic immune reactions to dietary antigens. The relation between these factors and nutritional state or the presence of luminal nutrients in the enterally fed and parenterally fed is poorly defined. Most studies suggest that acquisition of lymphoid characteristics is independent of luminal nutrition and its res...
متن کاملInteractions between microbes and the gut epithelium.
Gut microbes interact with the epithelium through cell surface components, fermentation products, and extracellular secreted proteins. Host-microbial interactions primarily involve TLRs (toll-like receptors) and NLR (nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain and leucine-rich repeat containing proteins). In a strain and dose-dependent manner, several probiotic strains directly alter tight juncti...
