Intestinal permeability marker zonulin as a predictor of sarcopenia in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

Respiratory medicine - 1 Jan 2000

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: Sarcopenia or age-related muscle loss is a common finding in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and may lead to functional compromise. The contribution of an increased gut permeability to muscle decline in COPD may be of primary relevance. We measured the plasma zonulin levels (a marker of intestinal permeability) as potential predictors of sarcopenia in COPD patients during...
