Development of an in situ small intestinal injection technique for targeted macromolecule delivery and in vivo functional studies in mice

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This study developed a minimally invasive, in situ small intestinal injection technique for mice, enabling targeted delivery of bioactive molecules while bypassing gastric degradation. Validation using functional assays and single‐cell RNA sequencing reveals high‐mobility group box 1–mediated epithelial responses, offering a translational tool for gut ...

Topographic distribution pattern of morphologically different G cells in the murine antral mucosa

European Journal of Histochemistry, 2017
Gastrin-secreting enteroendocrine cells (G cells) in the antrum play an important role in the regulation of gastric secretion, gastric motility and mucosal cell proliferation. Recently we have uncovered the existence of two subpopulations of G cells with

The complexity of dementia development and its comorbidities: The collaborative cross‐mouse population for multivarious tasks approach

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
The increasing prevalence of dementia and related neurodegenerative diseases—including Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis—poses a growing public health challenge. These conditions have traditionally been studied as isolated central nervous system disorders, but emerging evidence points to ...

Human resident gut microbe Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron regulates colonic neuronal innervation and neurogenic function

Gut Microbes, 2020
Background and aims As the importance of gut–brain interactions increases, understanding how specific gut microbes interact with the enteric nervous system (ENS), which is the first point of neuronal exposure becomes critical.

Heat Stress and Gut Microbiome Dynamics in Poultry: Interplay, Consequences, and Mitigation Strategies

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Heat stress disrupts gut microbial balance in poultry, impairing nutrient absorption and immunity. This review outlines the interplay between thermal stress and microbiome dynamics and discusses integrative mitigation strategies, probiotics, phytogenics, cooling systems, and genetic adaptation to enhance poultry resilience.

Labeling and Characterization of Human GLP-1-Secreting L-cells in Primary Ileal Organoid Culture

Cell Reports, 2020
Summary: Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) from intestinal L-cells stimulates insulin secretion and reduces appetite after food ingestion, and it is the basis for drugs against type-2 diabetes and obesity. Drugs targeting L- and other enteroendocrine cells

Unconventional Functions of Amino Acid Transporters: Role in Macropinocytosis (SLC38A5/SLC38A3) and Diet-Induced Obesity/Metabolic Syndrome (SLC6A19/SLC6A14/SLC6A6)

Biomolecules, 2022
Amino acid transporters are expressed in mammalian cells not only in the plasma membrane but also in intracellular membranes. The conventional function of these transporters is to transfer their amino acid substrates across the lipid bilayer; the ...

Pss knockdown in the midgut causes growth retardation in Drosophila similar to that in human LMHD

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Phosphatidylserine synthase (PSS), localized in the mitochondrial membrane, synthesizes phosphatidylserine. In humans, mutations in Pss lead to Lenz–Majewski hyperostotic dwarfism, a disorder affecting growth and development. The effects of Pss mutations on the growth of Drosophila melanogaster are not fully known. Hence, this study

You Are What You (First) Eat

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2018
As far back as we can remember, we eat. In fact, we eat before we can remember. Our first meal is amniotic fluid. We swallow it during the first trimester of gestation, and with that, we expose our gut to a universe of molecules.

Gut‐microbiota‐brain Axis and post‐traumatic epilepsy

Epilepsia 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.
