Abstract
Structure and Function of Intestinal Intercellular Tight Junctions The epithelium of the gut serves as a barrier limiting the systemic absorption of intraluminal microbes and microbial products. It has been hypothesized, but certainly not proven conclusively, that derangements in the barrier function of the gut predispose critically ill patients to the development of bacteremia, fungemia, and/ or endotoxemia [1-3].
