Incidence and surveillance of infections from Clostridium difficile: the experience at the Galliera of Genoa in the three-year period 2004-2006

open access: yesMicrobiologia Medica, 2009
Introduction Clostridium difficile is a Gram-positive bacillus, anaerobic, sporogenous ,with oro-faecal transmission.The formation of the spores can persist in a long time, encouraging the transmission.

Colonic Immunopathogenesis of Clostridium difficile Infections

open access: yesClinical and Vaccine Immunology, 2014
There are major gaps in our understanding of the immunopathogenesis of Clostridium difficile infections (CDIs). In this study, 36 different biomarkers were examined in the stools of CDI and non-CDI patients using the Proteome Profiler human cytokine ...

Clostridium difficile Infection

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2016
ABSTRACT Clostridium difficile is an anaerobic, Gram-positive, spore-forming, toxin-secreting bacillus that has long been recognized to be the most common etiologic pathogen of antibiotic-associated diarrhea. C.

The Interplay between the Gut and Ketogenic Diets in Health and Disease

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This review synthesizes current knowledge on the interaction between ketogenic diets and the gut, covering gut physiology, intestinal immunity, and the gut microbiome. It explores innovative methods for tailoring the diet to maximize benefits while reducing side effects. Emphasis is placed on gut‐mediated mechanisms as a critical interface between diet

Molecular Chain Elongation Mechanism for n‐Caproate Biosynthesis by Megasphaera Hexanoica

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The medium‐chain carboxylate‐producing microbe Megasphaera hexanoica is analyzed through genomics, transcriptomics, and metabolic engineering. The n‐caproate biosynthetic pathway is reconstructed in Escherichia coli, highlighting MhTHL as a key β‐ketothiolase. Structural analysis and mutagenesis reveal that MhTHL has a distinct substrate‐binding pocket,

Half‐Pipe Melt Electrowritten Scaffolds Support Engineering of an Immunocompetent Hydrogel‐Embedded Intestine‐on‐a‐Chip

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The immunocompetent Intestine‐on‐a‐Chip (IoC) is developed using melt electrowritten (MEW) half‐pipes. Intestinal epithelial cell (IEC) culture is optimized in the MEW‐based IoC, followed by co‐culture with monocyte‐derived dendritic cells (moDCs) and T cells in 3D hydrogels.

7‐Ketodeoxycholic Acid Promotes Colonic Mucosal Healing by Inducing Calcium Release from Endoplasmic Reticulum via the TGR5‐IP3R Pathway

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
7‐KDCA functions by driving intestinal epithelial cell migration through induction of calcium release from the endoplasmic reticulum. The findings emphasize a previously unrecognized property of 7‐KDCA in regulating cell migration, a required process for effective epithelial restitution and repair that is particularly critical for patients with UC to ...

Hologenomics Reveals Specialized Dietary Adaptations in the Mengla Snail‐Eating Snake

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Dietary adaptation studies from a holobiome perspective are scarce beyond mammals. This research reveals how genomic and microbial interactions drive dietary specialization in the Mengla snail‐eating snake, with evidence of gut symbiont convergence between reptiles and mammals.
