Food allergens are the key triggers of allergic diarrhea, causing damage to immune-rich ileum. This weakens mucosal barrier and tight junctions, increases intestinal permeability, exacerbates allergen exposure, thereby worsening condition. Sesamin, a natural lignan isolated from sesame seed, has shown potential in regulating immune responses, but its effects on health remain unclear. In this study, we constructed an ovalbumin (OVA)-induced diarrhea mouse model, which demonstrated increased mast cell degranulation, reduced junction integrity, impaired function. Pro-inflammatory cytokines were significantly ileum, along with unbalanced cluster differentiation 4 (CD4

Within the pediatric population, bronchial asthma is one of most prevalent chronic respiratory system diseases. The number exacerbations, severity, and duration symptoms all have a significant impact on children's life quality. In last decades, prevention management strategies this pathology focused maintaining or even increasing pulmonary function to maximum levels in early childhood, as it has been demonstrated that functional deficits at level occurring before school age cause pathological manifestations later, adulthood. epithelium airways implicitly lung first barrier against lesions caused by pro-oxidative factors. Both oxidative antioxidative factors can be endogenous origin (produced body) exogenous (from environment diet). Good functioning antioxidant defense mechanisms from molecular tissue level, balance between anti- factors, influence occurrence compensatory epithelium, causing delay local responses stress induced inflammation (bronchial remodeling, thickening airway smooth muscles, bronchoconstriction, hyper-reactivity). These underlie pathophysiological changes asthma. Numerous studies carried out among population inclusively effectiveness antioxidants prophylaxis, slowing down preventing progression pathology. This review complements scientific articles, aiming emphasizing complexity physio-pathological pathways their importance occurrence, development, therapeutic response asthma, providing good understanding relationship being source future strategies.
