The incidence of colorectal cancer in these regions is also different, as tumors more often appear in the descending colon than in the ascending colon. Inflammatory bowel disease and colorectal cancer can increase transepithelial permeability, which is a sign of reduced intestinal barrier function. However, there is not enough evidence to establish a connection between the difference in colorectal cancer incidence in the proximal and distal colon and intestinal permeability or the effects of carcinogenesis on the barrier properties in various areas of the colon. The aim of the study was to assess the permeability of different segments of the large intestine according to a developed mapping methodology in healthy rats and rats with 1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH)-induced colon adenocarcinoma %K Rat %K 1 %K 2-dimethylhydrazine %K colorectal cancer %K Ussing chamber %K short circuit current %K transepithelial electrical resistance %K intestinal permeability %U https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6121046/
