Published in 2019 at "NanoImpact"

DOI: 10.1016/j.impact.2019.100164

Abstract: Abstract Ingestion of engineered nanoparticles (NPs) can affect gut microbiota composition, and gut bacteria influences colonic epithelial function. The colonic mucus layer is a physical barrier that separates trillions of gut bacteria from the host… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "ACS applied materials & interfaces"

DOI: 10.1021/acsami.1c00580

Abstract: Protein and peptide drugs orally suffer from extremely low bioavailability principally for the complicated gastrointestinal environment along with the difficulty of passing through the mucus layer and the underlying epithelium. In our work, we fabricated… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Biochemical Society Transactions"

DOI: 10.1042/bst20201201

Abstract: The mucus layer covering the gastrointestinal (GI) tract plays a critical role in maintaining gut homeostasis. In the colon, the inner mucus layer ensures commensal microbes are kept at a safe distance from the epithelium… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "Gut Microbes"

DOI: 10.1080/19490976.2024.2434685

Abstract: ABSTRACT The intestinal mucosal barrier is a dynamic system that allows nutrient uptake, stimulates healthy microbe–host interactions, and prevents invasion by pathogens. The mucosa consists of epithelial cells connected by cellular junctions that regulate the… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Glycobiology"

DOI: 10.1093/glycob/cwab105

Abstract: Abstract The intestinal epithelium is protected from direct contact with gut microbes by a mucus layer. This mucus layer consists of secreted mucin glycoproteins. The outer mucus layer in the large intestine forms a niche… read more here.

Published in 2023 at "Chinese medical journal"

DOI: 10.1097/cm9.0000000000002711

Abstract: ABSTRACT The intestinal mucus layer is a barrier that separates intestinal contents and epithelial cells, as well as acts as the "mucus layer-soil" for intestinal flora adhesion and colonization. Its structural and functional integrity is… read more here.
