Gut‐microbiota‐brain Axis and post‐traumatic epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract There has been growing evidence that perturbations in gut‐microbiota‐brain axis (GMBA) are involved in mechanisms of chronic sequelae of traumatic brain injury (TBI). This review discusses the connection between GMBA and post‐traumatic epilepsy (PTE), the latter being a common outcome of TBI.

Dexmedetomidine infusions improve cardiovascular and renal function in anaesthetised, experimentally endotoxaemic horses

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Dexmedetomidine infusions are beneficial in anaesthetised endotoxaemic horses when administered concurrent to endotoxin, but post‐conditioning effects are unknown. Objectives To evaluate whether a dexmedetomidine infusion is beneficial in horses administered Escherichia coli O55:B5 lipopolysaccharides (LPS) endotoxin prior to ...

Urolithin A, a Diet‐Derived Gut Microbial Metabolite Against Pulmonary Hypertension Identified via Molecular Docking, Molecular Dynamics and Surface Plasmon Resonance

open access: yesFood Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Urolithin A, a gut microbial metabolite, binds TNF to suppress proliferation, inflammation, and oxidative stress, offering a promising microbe‐derived therapeutic avenue for pulmonary hypertension. ABSTRACT Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a complex and multifactorial disease that poses a significant clinical challenge.

Applicability of Whole Blood Monocyte Activation Test for Endotoxin Activity Assessment in Hydroxyapatite-Based Ceramics

open access: yesBioengineering
Hydroxyapatite-based ceramics are widely used in dental bioengineering, yet the reliable assessment of endotoxin activity in solid porous materials remains challenging. This study evaluated the applicability of a whole blood Monocyte Activation Test (MAT)

Molecular modeling of -endotoxins from Bacillus thuringiensis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) is a Gram-positive entomotoxic bacterium widely used to control crop pests and disease vectors. Since the introduction of transgenic plants expressing Bt genes, it has been demonstrated that Bt-crops constitute an important ...

Beyond Gut Modulation: A Critical Review of the Therapeutic Potential, Safety, and Clinical Prospects of Natural Polysaccharides for IBD

open access: yesFood Safety and Health, EarlyView.
In this review, we critically summarized the application of natural polysaccharides (NPs) for the treatment of IBD. This approach combines, in a unique way (right), the basic structure–activity relationships of NPs from different origins (left) with their multipronged mode of action, which involves modulation of the gut microbiota and other ...

Inhibition of biological effects of endotoxins by phenothiazines

open access: yes, 1992
The importance of change transfer reaction involving endotoxins of bacteria and interactions between endotoxin-induced tumor necrosis factor (TNF) were investigated both in vitro and in vivo in the presence of several phenothiazines.

Quantification of Bt δ-endotoxins in leaf tissues of tropical Bt maize populations

open access: yes, 2016
In Kenya, stem borers destroy an estimated 13.5% of farmers' annual maize harvest. Maize transformed using Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) derived genes controls stem borers without negative effects to humans, livestock or the environment.
