Hyposplenism, Antiendomysial Antibodies and Lymphocytic Colitis in Collagenous Sprue

Canadian Journal of Gastroenterology, 1999
A 66-year-old woman was seen repeatedly over a decade to remove recurrent colonic adenomas and investigate episodes of watery diarrhea. Although the diarrhea was believed to be due to lymphocytic colitis, she developed weight loss, hypoproteinemia and ...

AMSC‐sEVs Ameliorated Crohn's Disease by Inhibiting Macrophage‐Myofibroblast Transition Through the Delivery of MFGE8

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
Our study demonstrated that TGF‐β1 activated MAPK signalling pathway and promoted the MMT and secretion of CCL17 under CD‐associated intestinal inflammatory conditions. AMSC‐sEVs can deliver MFGE8, which inhibits MMT and CCL17‐mediated Treg recruitment by suppressing the MAPK signalling pathway, thereby alleviating intestinal fibrosis.

Topographic Mapping of Collagenous Gastritis

Canadian Journal of Gastroenterology, 2001
A 74-year-old woman was investigated for abdominal pain and diarrhea. Endoscopic examinations including biopsies of the stomach and colon demonstrated the typical subepithelial deposits characteristic of collagenous gastritis and collagenous colitis ...

Extracellular matrix and proteolysis: mechanisms driving irreversible changes and shaping cell behavior

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Irreversible ECM proteolysis by remodeling enzymes shapes development, homeostasis, and disease. ECM‐degrading proteases display cell specificity and are governed by shared mechanisms, exhibiting functional redundancy in generating matrikines, growth factors, and cytokines.

Targeting the microbiota‐miRNA‐protease axis: A new therapeutic avenue in melanoma

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Modulation of extracellular matrix (ECM) turnover is central to melanoma progression and metastasis, driven largely by ECM proteases. This review highlights the epigenetic regulation of ECM proteases by microRNAs and their roles in melanoma growth, invasion, and immune modulation.

An update on the landscape of collagen bioactive fragments

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The remodeling of the extracellular matrix releases collagen bioactive fragments, which exert molecular functions and regulate numerous biological processes via several signaling pathways. Here, we summarize the latest findings describing the roles of major bioactive fragments from collagens I, IV, VI, and XVIII in various physiological and ...

Incomplete microscopic colitis in Vietnam: perspectives for clinical practice

The Egyptian Journal of Internal Medicine
Introduction Microscopic colitis (MC) is an established cause of chronic watery diarrhea in Western countries but remains underrecognized in Asia. Incomplete forms, such as incomplete collagenous colitis (iCC), pose additional diagnostic challenges as ...

Ketotifen Treatment of Active Colitis in Patients with 5-Aminosalicylate Intolerance

Canadian Journal of Gastroenterology, 1998
Mast cell stabilizers are commonly used in the treatment of asthma and allergic disorders. Although the role of mucosal mast cells in the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease remains uncertain, mast cell stabilizers have been shown in animal models

Morphologisches Bild der aplastischen und atrophischen Desmose des Darms [PDF]

, 2018
Zusammenfassung: Neben dem enteralen Nervensystem, den interstitiellen Cajal-Zellen und der glatten Muskulatur kommt dem kollagenfaserigen Gerüst der muskulären Darmwand eine wesentliche Bedeutung bei der gerichteten Peristaltik zu.

Degradomics for large‐scale mechanistic insights on proteases and proteolysis in human health

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Proteolysis has an important role in human disease but remains relatively unexplored. Degradomics, the uncovering of proteolysis in tissues, cells, and proteins, uses mass spectrometry‐based terminomics to identify protein termini occurring therein (forward degradomics) and to define the actions of proteases (reverse degradomics).
