It is made up of an intricate system of cells, mucus and intestinal microbiota. A complex system of proteins allows the selective permeability of elements that are safe and necessary for the proper nutrition of the body. Disturbances in the tightness of this barrier result in the penetration of toxins and other harmful antigens into the system. Such events lead to various digestive tract dysfunctions, systemic infections, food intolerances and autoimmune diseases. Pathogenic and probiotic bacteria, and the compounds they secrete, undoubtedly affect the properties of the intestinal barrier. The discovery of zonulin, a protein with tight junction regulatory activity in the epithelia, sheds new light on the understanding of the role of the gut barrier in promoting health, as well as the formation of diseases. Coincidentally, there is an increasing number of reports on treatment methods that target gut microbiota, which suggests that the prevention of gut-barrier defects may be a viable approach for improving the condition of COVID-19 patients. Various bacteria\u2013intestinal barrier interactions are the subject of this review, aiming to show the current state of knowledge on this topic and its potential therapeutic applications.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijms222111359","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,10,22]],"date-time":"2021-10-22T00:22:02Z","timestamp":1634862122000},"page":"11359","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":106,"title":["The Effect of Bacterial Infections, Probiotics and Zonulin on Intestinal Barrier Integrity"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"22","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4685-4373","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Pawe\u0142","family":"Serek","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biochemistry and Immunochemistry, Wroclaw Medical University, 50-368 Wroclaw, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0527-468X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Monika","family":"Oleksy-Wawrzyniak","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pharmaceutical Microbiology and Parasitology, Wroclaw Medical University, 50-556 Wroclaw, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,10,21]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"83","DOI":"10.23736\/S1120-4826.19.02554-0","article-title":"Physiopathology of intestinal barrier and the role of zonulin","volume":"31","author":"Caviglia","year":"2019","journal-title":"Minerva Biotecnol."},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"119","DOI":"10.1146\/annurev.pathol.4.110807.092135","article-title":"Epithelial Barriers in Homeostasis and Disease","volume":"5","author":"Marchiando","year":"2010","journal-title":"Annu.
