}There is evidence to link obesity (and metabolic syndrome) with alterations in gut permeability and microbiota. The underlying mechanisms have been questioned and have prompted this review. We propose that the gut barrier function is a primary driver in maintaining metabolic health with poor health being linked to 'gut leakiness'. This review will highlight changes in intestinal permeability and how it may change gut microflora and subsequently affect metabolic health by influencing the…

It is demonstrated that a multiple-stressor military training environment induced increases in IP that were associated with alterations in markers of inflammation and with intestinal microbiota composition and metabolism, and targeting the intestinal microbiota could provide novel strategies for mitigating increases in intestinal permeability during stress.

Alterations in fecal short-chain fatty acids in patients with irritable bowel syndrome
- MedicineMedicine

A meta-analysis of case-control studies, randomized controlled trials, and self-controlled studies revealed differences between patients with IBS and HCs in terms of fecal SCFAs, and found that restricted diets correlated with fecal butyrate reduction in IBS, suggesting propionate andbutyrate could be used as biomarkers for IBS diagnosis.
Intestinal barrier function in obesity with or without metabolic syndrome: a systematic review protocol

A systematic review protocol investigating if obesity with or without metabolic syndrome is associated with an altered intestinal barrier function is described, to assist in producing a systematic review that addresses if Obesity with orwithout metabolic syndrome alters intestine barrier function.
