Regulatory T Cells Restrict Permeability to Bacterial Antigen Translocation and Preserve Short‐Chain Fatty Acids in Experimental Cirrhosis
Intestinal permeability to translocation of bacterial products is increased in cirrhosis. Regulatory T cells (Tregs) remain central to the interplay between the host and microbial milieu. We propose that Tregs are involved in promoting gut barrier integrity and a balanced interaction with gut microb...
