The Interaction of Large Bowel Microflora with the Colonic Mucus Barrier [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Inflammation, 2010
The colonic mucus barrier is the first line of defence that the underlying mucosa has against the wide range of potentially damaging agents of microbial, endogenous, and dietary origin that occur within the colonic lumen.

The disturbance of oxidant-antioxidant balance in rat colonic mucosa after antibiotic therapy

open access: yesБіологічні студії, 2015
Antibiotic treatment increases susceptibility to development of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) both in children and adults. Oxidative stress plays a prominent role in IBD pathogenesis.

Human gut microbiota-reactive DP8α regulatory T cells, signature and related emerging functions

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
In mice, microbiota-induced Tregs both maintain intestinal homeostasis and provide resistance to immuno-pathologies in the adult. Identifying their human functional counterpart therefore represents an important goal.

Short-term mucosal disruption enables colibactin-producing E. coli to cause long-term perturbation of colonic homeostasis

open access: yesGut Microbes, 2023
Colibactin, a bacterial genotoxin produced by E. coli strains harboring the pks genomic island, induces cytopathic effects, such as DNA breaks, cell cycle arrest, and apoptosis.

Clinical Parasitology and Parasitome Maps as Old and New Tools to Improve Clinical Microbiomics

open access: yesPathogens, 2021
A growing body of evidence shows that dysbiotic gut microbiota may correlate with a wide range of disorders; hence, the clinical use of microbiota maps and fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) can be exploited in the clinic of some infectious diseases.

Modern Metaproteomics: A Unique Tool to Characterize the Active Microbiome in Health and Diseases, and Pave the Road towards New Biomarkers—Example of Crohn’s Disease and Ulcerative Colitis Flare-Ups

open access: yesCells, 2022
Thanks to the latest developments in mass spectrometry, software and standards, metaproteomics is emerging as the vital complement of metagenomics, to make headway in understanding the actual functioning of living and active microbial communities. Modern

The Proinflammatory Role of Guanylate-Binding Protein 5 in Inflammatory Bowel Diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
NLRP3 inflammasome is implicated in the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). Since guanylate-binding protein 5 (GBP5) induces the NLRP3 inflammasome activity, we aim to investigate the potential role of GBP5 in IBD pathogenesis.

In vitro gastrointestinal digestion of Lentinus squarrosulus powder and impact on human fecal microbiota

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Humans have long-used mushrooms as food and medicine, but digestion and colonic fermentation of most mushrooms, including Lentinus squarrosulus is markedly unknown. Here, nutritional profile, digestion and colonic fermentation of L.
