Abstract
En 中文
• Sustained β-adrenergic signalling disrupts the multi-layer intestinal barrier in experimental cirrhosis. • Propranolol restores barrier integrity beyond haemodynamic effects and largely independent of microbiota changes. • β-adrenergic stimulation recapitulates barrier disruption in the absence of liver injury or dysbiosis. • β-adrenergic hyperstimulation drives bi-directional barrier failure: bacterial translocation and albumin leakage. • VE-cadherin destabilisation mediates gut-vascular barrier failure downstream of β-adrenoceptor activation.
