The possibility of the intestinal involvement in various forms of shock is discussed on the basis of literature data. The intestine is recognized as "a target- organ" in shock together with kidneys and lungs. Microcirculatory disturbances in the intestinal wall result in the decrease of the intestinal epithelium protective function with the development of endotoxemia and aggravation of shock. The consequence of these disturbances is the development of hemorrhages, acute ulcers or large foci of mucous membrane necrosis: clinically this is manifested in intestinal hemorrhages, abdominal pains and dynamic ileus.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) continues to be a significant global health issue contributing to a high mortality rate. Despite advancements in treatment, the risk of recurrence remains due to inherent mutations and the rapid turnover of intestinal mucosa. We present an exceptionally rare case of CRC metastasis to the duodenum in a 42-year-old female who has been compliant with postsurgical surveillance.

Osmoregulation is essential for the survival of aquatic organisms, particularly teleost fish facing osmotic challenges in environments characterized by variable salinity. While the gills are known for ion exchange, the intestine's role in water and salt absorption is gaining attention. Here, we investigated the adaptive responses of the intestine to salinity stress in guppies (), observing significant morphological and transcriptomic alterations.
