The role of mucosal immunity in the pathogenesis of necrotizing enterocolitis [PDF]
Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is the most devastating gastrointestinal disease of prematurity. Although the precise cause is not well understood, the main risk factors thought to contribute to NEC include prematurity, formula feeding, and bacterial ...

High-fidelity Glucagon-CreER mouse line generated by CRISPR-Cas9 assisted gene targeting
Objective: α-cells are the second most prominent cell type in pancreatic islets and are responsible for producing glucagon to increase plasma glucose levels in times of fasting. α-cell dysfunction and inappropriate glucagon secretion occur in both type 1

Pink1 and Parkin regulate Drosophila intestinal stem cell proliferation during stress and aging. [PDF]
Intestinal stem cells (ISCs) maintain the midgut epithelium in Drosophila melanogaster Proper cellular turnover and tissue function rely on tightly regulated rates of ISC division and appropriate differentiation of daughter cells.

β-Lactoglobulin-linoleate complexes: In vitro digestion and the role of protein in fatty acids uptake [PDF]
peer-reviewedThe dairy protein β-lactoglobulin (BLG) is known to bind fatty acids such as the salt of the essential longchain fatty acid linoleic acid (cis,cis-9,12-octadecadienoic acid, n-6, 18:2).

HISTOMORPHOLOGICAL STUDY OF ENDOCRINE CELLS IN VARIOUS REGION OF DIGESTIVE TRACT OF BUFFALO (BUBALUS BUBALIS) [PDF]
The histomorphology of enteroendocrine cells were studied in different segments of gastrointestinal tract of six adult buffalo. Depending upon the histomorphological study, the enteroendocrine cells were divided into 7 different types viz.

The Brain-Gut-Microbiome Axis. [PDF]
Preclinical and clinical studies have shown bidirectional interactions within the brain-gut-microbiome axis. Gut microbes communicate to the central nervous system through at least 3 parallel and interacting channels involving nervous, endocrine, and ...

bak deletion stimulates gastric epithelial proliferation and enhances Helicobacter felis-induced gastric atrophy and dysplasia in mice [PDF]
Helicobacter infection causes a chronic superficial gastritis that in some cases progresses via atrophic gastritis to adenocarcinoma. Proapoptotic bak has been shown to regulate radiation-induced apoptosis in the stomach and colon and also susceptibility

Single-cell transcriptomic atlas of enteroendocrine cells along the murine gastrointestinal tract
Background Enteroendocrine cells (EECs) produce over 20 gut hormones which contribute to intestinal physiology, nutrient metabolism and the regulation of food intake. The objective of this study was to generate a comprehensive transcriptomic map of mouse
