Wound infections induce gcFGF8a expression, which subsequently executes direct antimicrobial activity to suppress local infection while simultaneously activating the FGFR4‐mediated ERK/AKT‐mTOR signaling cascade, thereby upregulating HIF1α and enhancing glycolysis. These coordinated actions synergistically promote tissue repair by eliminating pathogens

During the progression of CRC, MDM2, as an E3 ubiquitin ligase, promotes the degradation of the LLGL2 protein. Reduced expression of the LLGL2 protein leads to the loss of support for the CNOT1 protein, decreasing the degradation of THBS3 mRNA. The increased THBS3 further activates the PI3K‐Akt pathway, promoting the proliferation and metastasis of CRC.

Role of Cytolethal Distending Toxin in Altered Stool Form and Bowel Phenotypes in a Rat Model of Post-infectious Irritable Bowel Syndrome. [PDF]
Background/aimsCampylobacter jejuni infection is a leading cause of acute gastroenteritis, which is a trigger for post-infectious irritable bowel syndrome (PI-IBS). Cytolethal distending toxin (CDT) is expressed by enteric pathogens that cause PI-IBS. We
