Zonulin as a Potential Therapeutic Target in Microbiota-Gut-Brain Axis Disorders: Encouraging Results and Emerging Questions
This review discusses zonulin, a protein that regulates tight junctions and modulates the permeability of both the intestinal and blood-brain barriers. It highlights how dysregulation of zonulin, triggered by microbial components, may contribute to neurological and gastrointestinal disorders. The review also explores potential therapeutic interventions targeting the zonulin pathway, particularly
