The gut microbiome in multiple sclerosis (MS) shows consistent depletion of short‐chain fatty acid (SCFA)‐producing bacteria, expansion of pro‐inflammatory species, and reduced levels of butyrate, propionate, and indole metabolites. These alterations increase intestinal permeability, disrupt immune balance, and contribute to blood–brain barrier ...

Anticancer Molecular Mechanisms of Phytosterols: An Updated Review on Clinical Trials
Phytosterols, a form of naturally occurring substance structurally related to cholesterol, have been getting considerable interest due to their possible anticancer properties. Phytosterols induce apoptosis, block the cell cycle, and abrogate the invasion and metastasis of cancer cells, offering a multi‐manifestation treatment of cancer.

Decreased expression of breast cancer resistance protein in the duodenum in patients with obstructive cholestasis [PDF]
Background/Aims: The expression of transporters involved in bile acid homeostasis is differentially regulated during obstructive cholestasis. Since the drug efflux transporter breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) is known to transport bile acids, we ...
