Enteral feeding decreases gut apoptosis, gut permeability, and pulmonary inflammation during murine endotoxemia
Background: The systemic response to sepsis is associated with gut mucosal damage, increased permeability, and subsequently increased inflammation in distant organs. Enteral feeding may reduce mortality from multiple organ failure by maintaining the gut mucosal barrier, however the mechanism of t...
