Ammonia exposure induced intestinal inflammation injury mediated by intestinal microbiota in broiler chickens via TLR4/TNF-α signaling pathway

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2021
Ammonia is a known environmental pollutant that causes injury to the intestine. Growing evidence suggests that intestinal microbiota dysbiosis involves in the development of intestinal injury under environmental pollution. However, the specific mechanism

The SERPINB4 gene mutation identified in twin patients with Crohn’s disease impaires the intestinal epithelial cell functions

Scientific Reports
Crohn’s disease (CD) is a chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease of unknown etiology. To identify new targets related to the initiation of CD, we screened a pair of twins with CD, which is a rare phenomenon in the Chinese population, for genetic ...

Assessment of chemical methods in the extraction of spore surface layers in Clostridioides difficile spores

mSphere
Clostridioides difficile spores are essential for initiation, recurrence, and transmission of C. difficile infections (CDI). These outermost layers of the spore, the exosporium and spore coat, are responsible for initial interactions with the host and ...

Arabinoxylans, inulin and Lactobacillus reuteri 1063 repress the adherent-invasive Escherichia coli from mucus in a musosa-comprising gut model [PDF]

, 2016
The microbiota that colonises the intestinal mucus may particularly affect human health given its proximity to the epithelium. For instance, the presence of the adherent-invasive Escherichia coli (AIEC) in this mucosal microbiota has been correlated with

Role of gut microbiota in the aetiology of obesity: proposed mechanisms and review of the literature [PDF]

, 2016
The aetiology of obesity has been attributed to several factors (environmental, dietary, lifestyle, host, and genetic factors); however none of these fully explain the increase in the prevalence of obesity worldwide.

Emerging trends in 'smart probiotics' : functional consideration for the development of novel health and industrial applications [PDF]

, 2017
The link between gut microbiota and human health is well-recognized and described. This ultimate impact on the host has contributed to explain the mutual dependence between humans and their gut bacteria.

Intestinal Microbiota Dysbiosis Promotes Mucosal Barrier Damage and Immune Injury in HIV-Infected Patients

Canadian Journal of Infectious Diseases and Medical Microbiology, 2023
The intestinal microbiota is an “invisible organ” in the human body, with diverse components and complex interactions. Homeostasis of the intestinal microbiota plays a pivotal role in maintaining the normal physiological process and regulating immune ...

Gut Microbiota Comparison Between Intestinal Contents and Mucosa in Mice With Repeated Stress-Related Diarrhea Provides Novel Insight

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Repeated stress-related diarrhea is a kind of functional bowel disorders (FBDs) that are mainly stemming from dysregulation of the microbiota–gut–brain axis mediated by a complex interplay of 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HT).

Ecological theory as a foundation to control pathogenic invasion in aquaculture [PDF]

, 2014
Detrimental host-pathogen interactions are a normal phenomenon in aquaculture animal production, and have been counteracted by prophylactic use of antibiotics. Especially, the youngest life stages of cultivated aquatic animals are susceptible to pathogen
