SCD14 and Intestinal Fatty Acid Binding Protein are Elevated in the Serum of Patients with Idiopathic Anaphylaxis.

Abstract

Intestinal epithelial integrity compromise has been identified in gastrointestinal (GI), atopic, and autoimmune diseases. Episodes of idiopathic anaphylaxis (IA) are often accompanied by GI manifestations. We therefore sought to determine whether surrogate markers of GI permeability were aberrant in this patient population.
