Gastrointestinal Diseases of the Ferret

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Exotic Animal Practice, 2005
Gastrointestinal (GI) disease is common in pet ferrets. According to Delaney, unique ferret anatomy and physiology, including rapid GI transit time, and short, simple GI tract predisposes to GI disease [1]. Etiologies include bacteria, including helicobacter infections, virus, parasites, inflammatory conditions, neoplasia, foreign body-related diseases,

Crosstalk between gut microbiota and tumor: tumors could cause gut dysbiosis and metabolic imbalance

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
In this research, we analyzed the relationship between gut microbiota and tumor. We discovered that both subcutaneous and metastatic tumors would alter the composition and metabolic function of gut microbiota. Meanwhile, fecal microbiota transplantation also indicated the anti‐tumor role of the gut microbiota, revealing the crosstalk between tumor and ...

Targeted metabolomics reveals novel diagnostic biomarkers for colorectal cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study employed targeted metabolomic profiling to identify 302 distinct metabolites present in platelet‐rich plasma (PRP), revealing aberrant metabolic profiles amongst individuals diagnosed with colorectal cancer (CRC). Compared to carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and cancer antigen 19‐9 (CA199), our metabolite panel showed improved sensitivity ...

Molecular and functional profiling unravels targetable vulnerabilities in colorectal cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We used whole exome and RNA‐sequencing to profile divergent genomic and transcriptomic landscapes of microsatellite stable (MSS) and microsatellite instable (MSI) colorectal cancer. Alterations were classified using a computational score for integrative cancer variant annotation and prioritization.

Lactoferrin in Gastrointestinal Disease

Internal Medicine, 2009
Lactoferrin, a major whey protein, is a red iron-binding protein present mainly in external secretions such as breast milk and in polymorphonuclear neutrophils. The presence of lactoferrin in body fluids is proportional to the flux of neutrophils and its assessment can provide a reliable biomarker for inflammation.

Plasma lipidomic and metabolomic profiles in high‐grade glioma patients before and after 72‐h presurgery water‐only fasting

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Presurgery 72‐h fasting in GB patients leads to adaptations of plasma lipids and polar metabolites. Fasting reduces lysophosphatidylcholines and increases free fatty acids, shifts triglycerides toward long‐chain TGs and increases branched‐chain amino acids, alpha aminobutyric acid, and uric acid.

Human epididymis protein 4 (HE4) in benign and malignant diseases [PDF]

, 2012
Background: Human epididymis protein 4 (HE4) is described as a useful new biomarker in ovarian cancer. As HE4 is neither tumor nor organ specific, we intensively investigated the occurrence of this protein in female and male patients with various benign ...
