Calcium interference with intestinal absorption of manganese

پژوهان, 2014
Background and Objectives: calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body, making up nearly 2% of total body weight. This element has several roles in organisms. Manganese is an essential trace element which is taken part in the structure of some metal

Quantifying Intestinal Glucose Absorption Using Isolated Vascularly Perfused Rat Small Intestine

Bio-Protocol
Intestinal glucose absorption has been studied for several decades. However, the different methods available for investigating absorption are often the reason for variability in the results, and it is difficult to measure the relative contribution of ...

Absorption and Metabolism of Xanthophylls

Marine Drugs, 2011
Dietary carotenoids, especially xanthophylls, have attracted significant attention because of their characteristic biological activities, including anti-allergic, anti-cancer, and anti-obese actions.

Oxidative stress, antioxidants and intestinal calcium absorption

World Journal of Gastroenterology, 2017
The disequilibrium between the production of reactive oxygen (ROS) and nitrogen (RNS) species and their elimination by protective mechanisms leads to oxidative stress.

Hyperactive ice‐binding proteins stabilize cell membranes and improve resistance to dehydration stress in Caenorhabditis elegans

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
TisIBP8, a fungal‐derived hyperactive ice‐binding protein, helps Caenorhabditis elegans survive dehydration. It localizes near cell membranes, reduces cell damage, and helps maintain membrane structure during drying. These results suggest that ice‐binding proteins can protect cells from dehydration stress as well as freezing stress.

Evaluating the effect of γ‐oryzanol on MASLD pathology using a medaka fish model

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This study explores a liver disease called MASLD, which is increasing worldwide and can lead to serious damage. Researchers used medaka fish instead of rodents to test a food compound, γ‐oryzanol. Fish fed this compound had less liver fat and healthier gut bacteria.

Enhanced ex vivo intestinal absorption of olmesartan medoxomil nanosuspension: Preparation by combinative technology

Saudi Pharmaceutical Journal, 2015
The purpose of this study was to develop nanosuspension based on combinative technology to enhance the intestinal absorption of Olmesartan medoxomil (OLM), a potent antihypertensive agent with limited oral bioavailability. Two combinative approaches were

Identifying and characterising a plant GH1 β‐glucosidase that exhibits hydrolytic activity on N‐linked glucopyranoside

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We report the first β‐glucosidase with demonstrated hydrolytic activity on an N‐linked glycopyranoside. The enzyme, native to maize, was biochemically characterised for this novel reaction, and structural modelling of the enzyme–substrate complex revealed several clues to the underlying reduced catalytic rate relative to its native O‐glycopyranoside ...

Absorption-promoting effects of chitosan in airway and intestinal cell lines: a comparative study

, 2012
This work explored the interaction of chitosan with Calu-3 and Caco-2 cell lines, as models of the airway and intestinal epithelium, respectively. The toxicity, tight junction opening and mucoadhesive effects of chitosan were compared in the two cell ...
