    174. Connections Between Histamine Intolerance, Intestinal Dysbiosis, & Impaired Intestinal Barrier Function | Diamine Oxidase Enzyme Production and More

    In this encore episode, we discuss the role of histamine within the gastrointestinal tract, detailing its regulation of gastric acid secretion and impact on intestinal motility. We examine how histamine-producing enterochromaffin-like (ECL) cells, mast cells, and gut microbiota contribute to histaminergic signaling, and how enzymatic degradation via diamine oxidase (DAO) maintains homeostasis. Additionally, we discuss histamine intolerance, highlighting the impacts of dysbiosis (as well as SIBO or small intestinal bacterial overgrowth) and intestinal barrier dysfunction on DAO insufficiency and histamine accumulation.

We discuss endogenous secretions and how lactoferrin functions as an antimicrobial, immunomodulatory, and iron-regulating glycoprotein, influencing microbial balance and intestinal barrier integrity. Additionally, we highlight lactoferrin testing and levels. We finish by going through supplementation as a phenomenal tool. Topics: 1. The Intestinal Barrier & Mucus Layer - The intestinal lumen, microbiome, mucus layer, epithelial cells, and lamina propria. - The mucus layer: antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) and secretory IgA (sIgA). - Intestinal epithelial cells including goblet cells and enterocytes. 2. Immune Cells in the Gut - The lamina propria. - Macrophages, dendritic cells, neutrophils, B cells, T cells, mast cells, and more. 3. Antimicrobial Peptides & Secretory IgA - AMPs and sIgA in the mucus layer regulate microbial balance and prevent pathogen adhesion. 4. Lactoferrin: Functions & Sources - Iron-binding glycoprotein, antimicrobial and immunomodulatory properties. - Found in mucosal secretions, colostrum, and more. - Intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) and neutrophils. 5. Lactoferrin’s Role in Intestinal Health - Regulates iron absorption via lactoferrin receptors (LFR)on enterocytes. - Sequesters free iron, limiting bacterial growth, bacteriostatic. - Destabilizes bacterial membranes, cell lysis, bactericidal. 6. Lactoferrin Levels - Neutrophils release lactoferrin during infection,increasing its presence in the large intestine. - Fecal lactoferrin levels. - Fecal calprotectin levels. 7. Lactoferrin & Candida Overgrowth - Fungal membranes. - Aiding in the inhibition of biofilm formation. 8. Lactoferrin Supplementation & Benefits - Supports gut microbiota, epithelial integrity, and immunemodulation. - Bovine colostrum and as a supplement. 9. Conclusion - The intestinal mucus layer is key to gut barrier function. - Lactoferrin plays a central role in microbial regulationand immune defense. Thank you to our episode sponsors: 1.
