The purpose of this study was to compare intestinal permeability between enantiomers of 2-(2-hydroxypropanamido) benzoic acid ((R)-/(S)-HPABA), a marine-derived antiinflammatory drug, using an in situ single-pass intestinal perfusion (SPIP) model in rats. Concentrations, isolated regions of small intestine, and p-glycoprotein (P-gp) inhibitor were performed to investigate their influences on the intestinal absorption of (R)-/(S)-HPABA. In addition, a molecular docking method was performed to illustrate our prediction. The absorption rate coefficients (K ) and permeability values (P ) of (R)-/(S)-HPABA were calculated. The permeability of (S)-HPABA was significantly (P < 0.01) higher than that of (R)-HPABA in jejunum, and ileum permeability of (R)-/(S)-HPABA appeared best in ileum; the investigated concentrations ranged from 20 to 80 μg/mL, K and P values of (R)-/(S)-HPABA increased linearly; in the presence of P-gp inhibitor (verapamil), P values of two enantiomers were increased significantly; and the effect of P-gp on absorption of (R)-HPABA is stronger than that of (S)-HPABA in ileum segment. Based on these results, carrier-mediated transport or passive transport combined with carrier-mediated transport seems to be the mechanism for intestinal absorption of (R)-/(S)-HPABA, and (R)-/(S)-HPABA may be recognized as the P-gp substrate. In addition, the intestinal permeability of (S)-HPABA is higher than that of (R)-HPABA.

Purpose Of Review: The purpose of this narrative review is to describe the mechanisms for gut dysfunction during critical illness, outline hypotheses of gut-derived inflammation, and identify nutrition and non-nutritional therapies that have direct and indirect effects on preserving both epithelial barrier function and gut microbiota during critical illness.

Recent Findings: Clinical and animal model studies have demonstrated that critical illness pathophysiology and interventions breach epithelial barrier function and convert a normally commensal gut microbiome into a pathobiome. As a result, the gut has been postulated to be the "motor" of critical illness and numerous hypotheses have been put forward to explain how it contributes to systemic inflammation and drives multiple organ failure.

Background And Aims: Increased intestinal permeability exacerbates the development of metabolic dysfunction associated steatohepatitis (MASH), but the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Autophagy is important for maintaining normal intestinal permeability. Here, we investigated the impact of intestinal transcription factor EB (TFEB), a key regulator of autophagy, in intestinal permeability and MASH progression.

Alginate oligosaccharides (AOS) have gained attention for their capacity to regulate human health as prebiotics. Osteosarcopenia is a progressive disease of the musculoskeletal system and result in heavy burden of patients. Studies suggest that gut microbiota is involved in the pathogenesis of osteosarcopenia, whether AOS can improve the symptoms of osteosarcopenia by modulating gut microbiota remains to be elucidated.
