Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Change from baseline of barrier function (paracellular permeability) after 90 minutes of ex vivo stimulation of the colonic biopsies.
Barrier function (paracellular permeability) will be evaluated with the use of marker related this permeability, through immunofluoresence.
Barrier function will be measured at baseline and after 90 minutes of ex vivo stimulation of the colonic biopsies.
Change from baseline of barrier function (transcellular permeability) after 90 minutes of ex vivo stimulation of the colonic biopsies.
Barrier function (transcellular permeability) will be evaluated with the use of marker related to this permeability, through ELISA tecnhique.
Barrier function will be measured at baseline and after 90 minutes of ex vivo stimulation of the colonic biopsies.
Study Arms (1)
Gut barrier function treatments
EXPERIMENTALStressor, fibre, combination of treatments.
Interventions
I Stimulation of human colonic biopsies with the fermented product of Pleurotus eryngii mushroom
