There is increasing evidence for the role of intestinal permeability in the pathogenesis of diabetes, and the binding of advanced glycation endproducts to RAGE receptor may trigger proinflammatory signaling cascade, leading to intestinal inflammation and increased permeability, thus contributing to the development of diabetes complications.
There is increasing evidence for the role of intestinal permeability as a contributing factor in the pathogenesis of diabetes; however, the molecular mechanisms are poorly understood. Advanced glycation endproducts, of both exogenous and endogenous origin, have been shown to play a role in diabetes pathophysiology, in part by their ligation to the receptor for advanced glycation endproducts (RAGE), leading to a proinflammatory signalling cascade. RAGE signalling has been demonstrated to play a role in the development of intestinal inflammation and permeability in Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. In this review, we explore the role of AGE-RAGE signalling and intestinal permeability and explore whether activation of RAGE on the intestinal epithelium may be a downstream event contributing to the pathogenesis of diabetes complications.
