AI Technical Summary
Existing technologies fail to effectively enhance the barrier function and transepithelial electrical resistance in epithelial tissues, leading to conditions such as inflammatory bowel disease, skin disorders, and infectious diseases due to impaired tight junction function and histamine-induced impairment.
A barrier function enhancing agent and transepithelial electrical resistance increasing agent containing green tea extract, matcha extract, coix seed extract, rice ferment, and/or glycyrrhizic acid and/or its derivatives are used to improve the barrier function and electrical resistance.
The agents significantly enhance barrier function and transepithelial electrical resistance, effectively preventing or improving conditions like inflammatory bowel disease, skin disorders, and infectious diseases by restoring the epithelial tissue barrier.
