Biochem/physiol Actions

Lubiprostone helps to enhance intestinal permeability in humans. Hence it may inhibit leaky gut syndrome.
Lubiprostone is a bicyclic fatty acid that activates ClC-2 and CFTR chloride channels. Some reports suggest that lubiprostone opens CFTR or both CFTR and ClC-2 through interactions with the prostaglandin receptor EP4. Lubiprostone is used clinically to treat idiopathic chronic constipation and irritible bowel syndrome.
