FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) affects nearly one‐third of the global population and poses a significant risk of progression to cirrhosis or liver cancer. Here, we discuss the roles of hepatic dendritic cell subtypes in MASLD, highlighting their distinct contributions to disease initiation and progression, and their ...

Association of mannose-binding lectin 2 gene polymorphisms with Guillain-Barré syndrome
Scientific Reports, 2022 Complement activation plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS), a debilitating immune-mediated neuropathy. Mannose-binding lectin (MBL) is a complement activation factor of lectin pathway which as genetic host factor may

Introduction to the human gut microbiota
Biochemical Journal, 2017 The human gastrointestinal (GI) tract harbours a complex and dynamic population of microorganisms, the gut microbiota, which exert a marked influence on the host during homeostasis and disease.

The therapeutic management of gut barrier leaking: the emerging role for mucosal barrier protectors [PDF]
, 2015 OBJECTIVE: Gut barrier is a functional unit organized as a multi-layer system and its multiple functions are crucial for maintaining gut homeostasis. Numerous scientific evidences showed a significant association between gut barrier leaking and gastro ...

Medicine, 2003 Gastrointestinal diseases associated with impaired immunity are largely infectious, although an increased incidence of extranodal lymphoma is also found in the context of HIV infection. The range of such infections is related to the role of CD4-positive T cells in their eradication. Infections tend to occur with organisms of limited virulence and to be

Proceedings of the Nutrition Society, 2012 The goal of this brief review is to address the role of the ageing gut in the genesis of malnutrition in the elderly. We assess the burden of malnutrition in the elderly, exploring the role of comorbid conditions and neurohumoral changes that take place to contribute towards the process of anorexia associated with ageing.

Taurine promotes glucagon‐like peptide‐1 secretion in enteroendocrine L cells
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Taurine, a sulfur‐containing amino acid, is likely taken up by enteroendocrine L cells via the taurine transporter. This process increases the levels of cytosolic ATP. The increase in intracellular Ca2+ concentrations and glucagon‐like peptide‐1 secretion through membrane depolarization is caused by the closure of ATP‐sensitive potassium channels ...

TGFβ/BMP immune signaling affects abundance and function of C. elegans gut commensals. [PDF]
, 2019 The gut microbiota contributes to host health and fitness, and imbalances in its composition are associated with pathology. However, what shapes microbiota composition is not clear, in particular the role of genetic factors.

Generalizing Minimal Supergravity [PDF]
Phys.Lett.B692:121-125,2010, 2010 In Grand Unified Theories (GUTs), the Standard Model (SM) gauge couplings need not be unified at the GUT scale due to the high-dimensional operators. Considering gravity mediated supersymmetry breaking, we study for the first time the generic gauge coupling relations at the GUT scale, and the general gaugino mass relations which are valid from the GUT ...
