Since 2015, Intestinal Cell News has been a valuable resource for keeping researchers and medical professionals updated on the latest publications, news and events in the field of gastrointestinal cell biology. Our editorial team collects and publishes the most current articles and reviews using stomach, colon, and small and large intestinal cells. We cover topics including the culturing of intestinal cells, intestinal organoids, intestinal cancers, and gastrointestinal conditions such as irritable bowel syndrome and Crohn’s disease.

Processed Foods Drive Intestinal Barrier Permeability and Microvascular Diseases

Investigators showed in rodent models that long-term consumption of a processed diet drives intestinal barrier permeability and an increased risk of chronic kidney disease.
