Improvement of gut microbiome and intestinal permeability following splenectomy plus pericardial devascularization in hepatitis B virus-related cirrhotic portal hypertension

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
The gut microbiome is an essential component of the intestinal mucosal barrier, critical in regulating intestinal permeability. Microbiome dysbiosis and intestinal permeability changes are commonly encountered conditions in patients with cirrhosis and ...

Intestinal IL-17R Signaling Constrains IL-18-Driven Liver Inflammation by the Regulation of Microbiome-Derived Products

Cell Reports, 2019
Summary: Interleukin (IL)-17 signaling to the intestinal epithelium regulates the intestinal microbiome. Given the reported links between intestinal dysbiosis, bacterial translocation, and liver disease, we hypothesize that intestinal IL-17R signaling ...

Guts within guts: the microbiome of the intestinal helminth parasite Ascaris suum is derived but distinct from its host

Microbiome, 2022
Background Intestinal helminths are extremely prevalent among humans and animals. In particular, intestinal roundworms affect more than 1 billion people around the globe and are a major issue in animal husbandry.

Spatial variation of the gut microbiome in response to long-term metformin treatment in high-fat diet-induced type 2 diabetes mouse model of both sexes

Gut Microbes, 2023
Antidiabetic drug metformin alters the gut microbiome composition in the context of type 2 diabetes and other diseases; however, its effects have been mainly studied using fecal samples, which offer limited information about the intestinal site-specific ...

The intestinal microbiome and surgical disease [PDF]

Current Problems in Surgery, 2016
As we have seen throughout this monograph, microbes play a key role in both human health, disease, response to surgery and pharmacologic intervention. Advancing the understanding of these complex relationships is in its infancy. Technological advances in analysis, large data management and interpretation of data are rapidly evolving to address disease ...

Multicomponent comprehensive confirms that erythroferrone is a molecular biomarker of pan-cancer

Heliyon
All vertebrates organisms produce erythroferrone, a secretory hormone with structure-related functions during iron homeostasis. However, limited knowledge exists regarding the effect of this hormone on the occurrence and progression of cancer.

Exploring the genomic traits of infant-associated microbiota members from a Zimbabwean cohort

BMC Genomics
Introduction Our understanding of particular gut microbiota members such as Bifidobacterium and Enterococcus in low-middle-income countries remains very limited, particularly early life strain-level beneficial traits.
