A university researcher is studying the potential effect of leaky gut syndrome on our overall health. 'A mechanism by which gut microbiota elevates permeability and inflammation in obese/diabetic mice and human gut,' a paper coauthored by Bo Wang, chemical engineering assistant professor, and researchers at the University of South Florida, looks at the role of gut microbes. The paper was published in the spring edition of Gut.

Obese microbiota is causal to instigate elevated gut permeability, inflammation and metabolic dysregulation. Mice receiving FMT from both db/db and DIO mice showed significant increase in FITC 4kDa-dextran , endotoxin leakage from gut to blood compared with their lean control FMT recipient mice.

Intestinal permeability, also known as leaky gut syndrome, is a theoretical condition where the intestines leak water and nutrients. That can lead to inflammation and changes in the normal gut bacterial which in turn could cause problems within the digestive tract.
