چکیده
Both systemic and organ-specific autoimmune diseases are major manifestations of IgA deficiency (IgAD), the most common primary immunodeficiency In addition to 14 . , discuss the clinical findings of IgAD patients, we proposed a hypothesis to explain the high association with autoimmune phenomena. Assessment of Intestinal Barrier Permeability to Large Antigenic Molecules Aristo Vojdani, Ph.D., M.T. Assessment IBP.ppt 9 Researchers believe that the study of saliva deserves more than just lip service. Nature Medicine, 2008, 14:706-709 Measurement of Secretory IgA in Saliva INDICATION Secretory IgA is an important factor in mucosal immunity and in intraluminal microbial defense system.

For the assessment of intestinal permeability, size matters.
The purpose of this review is to demonstrate that an intestine leaky to small molecules can be impermeable to large antigenic molecules. The author proposes that the permeability of the epithelium to very small sugar molecules such as lactulose/mannitol-used for the past 50 years to gauge intestinal permeability-does not necessarily correlate with epithelial permeability to macromolecules. This...
متن کاملIntestinal permeability: functional assessment and significance.
The intestinal epithelium demonstrates differential properties, providing both barrier and transport functions with respect to luminal molecules. Intestinal permeability relates to barrier function and, although it is the ‘permeation’ of molecular markers that is used to measure ‘permeability’, the terms are often confused. Permeability is that property of the intestinal epithelium or of a memb...
متن کاملThe Pathogenesis, Clinical Implications, and Treatment of Intestinal Hyperpermeability
Normally, the gastrointestinal epithelium provides a semi-permeable barrier which allows nutrients to be absorbed while preventing larger, potentially toxic, antigenic, or pathogenic molecules or organisms from crossing into the bloodstream. Pathogenicallyincreased intestinal permeability predisposes the individual to diffusion of antigenic food molecules and translocation of bacteria and/or ye...
متن کاملInfluence of polyunsaturated fatty acids on intestinal barrier function during colitis
Tight junction proteins are important for intestinal homeostasis. They prevent paracellular transport of large molecules and maintain cell polarity. Impaired tight junction function leads to a more permeable intestinal epithelial barrier and therefore potentially increases disease risk. Limited information is available concerning the effects of food components on the intestinal barrier, particu...
متن کاملIntestinal Permeability in Inflammatory Bowel Disease: Pathogenesis, Clinical Evaluation, and Therapy of Leaky Gut
The pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is multifactorial with data suggesting the role of a disturbed interaction between the gut and the intestinal microbiota. A defective mucosal barrier may result in increased intestinal permeability which promotes the exposition to luminal content and triggers an immunological response that promotes intestinal inflammation. IBD patients displa...
