Protecting the endothelial glycocalyx with a new therapy prevents diabetic microvascular complications, offering a systemic treatment approach.

Epithelial cells that line the small intestine are protected by a carbohydrate-rich layer called the glycocalyx, which prevents bacteria from coming in direct contact with the cells. A key ...

Hamilton and McMichael 1 and Matthews 2 have recently suggested mechanisms to explain features of intestinal disaccharide absorption which are dependent on the structure of the microvilli and ...
