BACKGROUND: Intestinal barrier failure may lead to systemic inflammation and distant organ injury in patients following severe injury. Enteric glia cells (EGCs) have been shown to play an important role in maintaining gut barrier integrity through secretion of S-Nitrosoglutathione (GSNO). We have re...
