Disassembly of intestinal tight junction proteins is thought to occur due to the rapid breakdown of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to adenosine monophophate (AMP) in intestinal cells. This causes a release of hydrogen peroxide, a potent free radical and disruptor of intestinal tight junction proteins.
Isn't breakdown of ATP to AMP hypothesized to occur in ME/CFS? I wonder if it always causes a release of hydrogen peroxide.
