Factors regulating cell shedding in mouse and rat small intestine

2018-01-01

Abstract excerpt

The gut barrier is composed of a single layer of intestinal epithelial cells which are connected together by junctional complexes and are covered by a layer of glycocalyx. Its function is to prevent the passage of harmful and toxic substances from the gut lumen into the blood circulation.
