Treatment of intractable pruritus in patients with cholestasis with molecular adsorbents recirculating system dialysis: a case series

Gastroenterology Review, 2021
Pruritus commonly occurs in patients with cholestatic liver diseases. Pruritus that is refractory to pharmacological treatment may be an indication for liver transplantation [1–3]. Pathogenesis of hepatic pruritus is still not fully understood.

A Chirality‐Converted Bacteriolytic Dodecapeptide Regulates Vibrio‐Induced Polymicrobial Infection and Ameliorates Invasion‐Associated Gut Microbiota Disequilibrium

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Multidrug‐resistant Vibrio infections are rising rapidly and threaten coastal populations worldwide. This study introduces D‐zp37, a chirality‐engineered antimicrobial peptide with exceptional potency against resistant Vibrio species. D‐zp37 kills planktonic cells, blocks mixed‐species biofilms, disrupts essential bacterial stress responses, and shows ...

Cholesterol nucleation time in gallbladder bile of patients with solitary or multiple cholesterol gallstones [PDF]

, 1992
Patients with multiple cholesterol gallbladder stones have been found to be at a higher risk for the recurrence of gallstones after successful nonsurgical treatment than those with a solitary stone.

The Enhanced Whey Protein Oral Bioavailability and Muscle Anabolism Ability by a Simple and Effective Piperine‐Whey Protein Synergistic Codelivery System

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
WP(Pip) is a mixture of whey protein and piperine‐loaded nanoemulsion stabilized by WP through microfluidic homogenization. Acting as a “smart key,” piperine opens epithelial tight junctions to enhance absorption of whey protein and, thereby increasing circulating amino acid availability, synergistically up‐regulates the mTOR signaling pathway in ...

Tauroursodeoxycholic acid exerts anticholestatic effects by a cooperative cPKC alpha-/PKA-dependent mechanism in rat liver. [PDF]

, 2008
Objective: Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) exerts anticholestatic effects in part by protein kinase C (PKC)-dependent mechanisms. Its taurine conjugate, TUDCA, is a cPKCa agonist.

Identification of Bile Acids Responsible for Inhibiting the Bile Salt Export Pump, Leading to Bile Acid Accumulation and Cell Toxicity in Rat Hepatocytes [PDF]

Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2017
Inhibition of bile salt export pump (BSEP) causes hepatic accumulation of toxic bile acid (BA), leading to hepatocyte death. We reported a sandwich-cultured hepatocyte (SCH)-based model that can estimate potential cholestatic compounds by assessing their ability to induce hepatotoxicity in combination with a titrated amount of human 12 BA species ...

A Nanobody‐LNP Platform for Targeting and Relicensing Dendritic Cells for Potent Cancer Immunotherapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Plastin‐2 (PLS2) is identified as a dual‐function receptor on DCs that mediates both nanoparticle uptake and immunomodulation. A nanobody‐LNP platform is engineered to integrate antigen delivery with relicensing DCs. The therapeutic strategy elicits potent anti‐tumor T cell responses and leads to significant inhibition of established tumors in vivo ...

Physiological concentrations of bile acids down-regulate agonist induced secretion in colonic epithelial cells [PDF]

, 2009
In patients with bile acid malabsorption, high concentrations of bile acids enter the colon and stimulate Cl− and fluid secretion, thereby causing diarrhoea. However, deoxycholic acid (DCA), the predominant colonic bile acid, is normally present at lower

Constraint of Lignin–Carbohydrate Complex Orchestrated on Polyphenol in Oil–Water Interface Targeting Ulcerative Colitis Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study constructed the W1/O/W2 emulsion–based targeted therapy delivery system for ulcerative colitis (UC) utilizing LCC as surfactant for the first time. This multifunctional emulsion offered certain therapeutic advantages for UC, including targeted colonic delivery of active compounds, synergistic modulation of gut microbiota through combined ...
