Stronger intestinal barrier may prevent cancer in the rest of the body, new study suggests
A leaky gut may be the root of some cancers forming in the rest of the body, a new study published online Feb. 21 in PLoS ONE by Thomas Jefferson University researchers suggests.
Stronger intestinal barrier may prevent cancer in the rest of the body, new study suggests
PHILADELPHIA A leaky gut may be the root of some cancers forming in the rest of the body, a new study published online Feb. 21 in PLoS ONE by Thomas Jefferson University researchers suggests. It appears that the hormone receptor guanylyl cyclase C (GC-C)a ...
Obstacles no barrier to higher speeds for worms, researchers find
Obstacles in an organism's path can help it to move faster, not slower, researchers from New York University's Applied Math Lab at the Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences have found through a series of experiments and computer simulations. Their findings, which appear in the Journal of the Royal Society Interface, ...
Obstacles no barrier to higher speeds for worms, NYU researchers find
(New York University) Obstacles in an organism's path can help it to move faster, not slower, researchers from New York University's Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences have found through a series of experiments and computer simulations. Their findings have implications for a better understanding of basic locomotion strategies found in ...
Capturing an octopus-eye view of the Great Barrier Reef
The camera enables the researchers to see an aspect of light that humans are essentially blind to: polarized light. Though humans aren't sensitive to polarized light, many reef dwelling animals are but this has not always been taken into account in previous studies of reef communities. ...
FzioMed’s DYNAVISC adhesion barrier gel receives European CE Mark approval
FzioMed, Inc. is pleased to announce that it has received CE Mark approval to market DYNAVISC adhesion barrier gel in Europe for tendon and peripheral nerve surgery.
To Preserve Vital Blood-Brain Barrier, Brain Glia Cells Increase Their DNA Content
The blood-brain barrier is essential for maintaining the brain's stable environment - preventing entry of harmful viruses and bacteria and isolating the brain's specific hormonal and neurotransmitter activity from that in the rest of the body. In addition to nerve cells, the brain contains glia cells that support and protect ...

Inflammatory Cues Modulate Goblet Cell Products Important For Intestinal Barrier Function
In a paper published in the December 2011 issue of Experimental Biology and Medicine, a team of scientists at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign led by Rex Gaskins, PhD have demonstrated that both microbial and host inflammatory factors modulate sulfomucin production in a human cell line, LS174T, that models intestinal ...
