Abstract
⺠The effects of zinc on porcine and human intestinal epithelial cells are studied. ⺠Transepithelial resistance, viability tests and Hsp70 as stress marker are analyzed. ⺠High concentrations of zinc cause differentiation-dependent damage to cells. ⺠Hsp70 expression and viability parameters are more affected by zinc than TEER. ⺠Porcine IPEC-J2 cells are more sensitive to zinc than human Caco-2 cells.
