An investigation of horizontal transfer of feed introduced DNA to the aerobic microbiota of the gastrointestinal tract of rats [PDF]

, 2012
BACKGROUND: Horizontal gene transfer through natural transformation of members of the microbiota of the lower gastrointestinal tract (GIT) of mammals has not yet been described.

Molecular characterisation of selected gastrointestinal microbiota in South African HIV-positive patients during HAART [PDF]

, 2012
Includes bibliographical references.Progression of the HIV disease is characterised by a massive depletion of CD4+ T cells and it has been shown that patients living with a more advanced HIV infection have a higher risk of developing diarrhoea due to the

Multidisciplinary approach to safety of antithrombotic therapy: focus on the gastrointestinal tract

, 2021
Multidisciplinary approach to safety of antithrombotic therapy used in clinical practice is reported. Such complications of antithrombotic therapy as gastrointestinal tract (GIT) erosion/ulceration and gastrointestinal bleeding are discussed in detail ...

MLH1 germline mutation associated with Lynch syndrome in a family followed for more than 45 years

BMC Medical Genetics, 2019
Background Lynch syndrome, is an autosomal dominantly inherited disease that predisposes individuals to a high risk of colorectal cancers, and some mismatch-repair genes have been identified as causative genes.

Metformin and the gastrointestinal tract [PDF]

Diabetologia, 2016
Metformin is an effective agent with a good safety profile that is widely used as a first-line treatment for type 2 diabetes, yet its mechanisms of action and variability in terms of efficacy and side effects remain poorly understood. Although the liver is recognised as a major site of metformin pharmacodynamics, recent evidence also implicates the gut

Chemotherapy for Spinal Cord Intramedullary Pediatric Low‐Grade Glioma—A Systematic Literature Review

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pediatric intramedullary low‐grade gliomas (PIMLGGs) are rare neoplasms that present unique clinical and management challenges. Although surgery remains the primary tool for tissue diagnosis and decompression, complete gross‐total resection is frequently unfeasible due to the infiltrative nature of these lesions.

Enteropathogenic E. coli shows delayed attachment and host response in human jejunum organoid‐derived monolayers compared to HeLa cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...

Microbiome−host proteostasis crosstalk—An emerging perspective on mechanisms and interventions toward healthy longevity

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.

High levels of tumor cell-intrinsic STING signaling are associated with increased infiltration of CD8+ T cells in dMMR/MSI-H gastric cancer

Scientific Reports
Mismatch repair deficient (dMMR)/microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) gastric cancer (GC) exhibits an immune-active tumor microenvironment (TME) compared to MMR proficient (pMMR)/microsatellite stable/Epstein-Barr virus-negative [EBV (−)] GC.

Applications of intraoperative ultrasound in the treatment of complicated cases of acute and chronic pancreatitis and pancreatic cancer – own experience

Journal of Ultrasonography, 2015
Both acute and chronic inflammation of the pancreas often lead to complications that nowadays can be resolved using endoscopic and surgical procedures. In many cases, intraoperative ultrasound examination (IOUS) enables correct assessment of the extent
