Reduction in jejunal fluid absorption in vivo through distension and cholinergic stimulation not attributable to enterocyte secretion [PDF]
Jejunal fluid absorption in vivo was reduced by distension and by hydrostatic pressure and further declined on adding E. coli STa enterotoxin but no net fluid secretion was detected.

Orally delivered toxin–binding protein protects against diarrhoea in a murine cholera model
The ongoing seventh cholera pandemic, which began in 1961, poses an escalating threat to public health. There is a need for new cholera control measures, particularly ones that can be produced at low cost, for the one billion people living in cholera ...

Cholera Toxin Notches Epithelial Junctions [PDF]
Cholera toxin (CT) is the factor responsible for watery diarrhea associated with Vibrio cholerae infection. In this issue, Guichard et al. (2013) report that CT compromises intestinal epithelium barrier function via cyclic AMP (cAMP)-induced disruption of Rab11- and exocyst-dependent delivery of endocytic recycling cargo to cell-cell junctions.

The Aging Gut–Brain Axis: Effects of Dietary Polyphenols and Metal Exposure
The influence of gut microbiota on brain health ABSTRACT Diet provides essential metals, which are required for the growth, development, and well‐functioning of the body. Nonetheless, some natural and human activities add toxic heavy metals to the diet, consequently introducing them to our bodies, resulting in several disorders and death. The intestine,

Foodborne Hazards and Novel Technologies in Ready‐to‐Eat Crustaceans
Biological hazards, including Listeria monocytogenes, norovirus, Salmonella, and Vibrio spp., and chemical hazards, including heavy metals, biotoxins, pesticides, pharmaceuticals, and personal care products, are of great concern regarding crustaceans and their consumption.

Ca2+-Stimulated Catecholamine Release from alpha-Toxin Permeabilized PC12 Cells [PDF]
Two possible cellular pathways of catecholamines from the chromaffin vesicles of PC 12 cells to the surrounding medium are explored in this study. The direct one circumventing the cytoplasm can be activated in a-toxin-permeabilized cells with micromolar ...

Grape extracts inhibit multiple events in the cell biology of cholera intoxication. [PDF]
Vibrio cholerae produces cholera toxin (CT), an AB5 protein toxin that is primarily responsible for the profuse watery diarrhea of cholera. CT is secreted into the extracellular milieu, but the toxin attacks its Gsα target within the cytosol of a host ...

Exploring the Role of Acrylamide in Food Allergy via Dendritic Cell‐Dependent Th2 Immune Responses
Acrylamide may disrupt immune tolerance as a foodborne immunotoxicant, priming allergic inflammatory susceptibility through DC‐dependent Th2/Th17 polarization, TLR4/NF‐κB signaling amplification, and IL‐10 production suppression. ABSTRACT Acrylamide (AA), a prevalent food processing contaminant with recognized multi‐organ toxicity, has an unexplored ...
