Abstract:
Chemotherapy has been shown to be effective in the treatment of patients malignancies, however, anticancer drugs, particularly high-dose, also damage other chemosensitive tissues such as the intestinal mucosa, and these adverse effects can impair intestinal mucosal barrier. The derangement in the barrier function plays a central role in the pathophysiology of systemic infection, shock, and sepsis syndrome. The chemotherapy-induced intestinal barrier dysfunction and its prevention and treatment had been reviewed.
