Engineered Probiotics Mitigate Gut Barrier Dysfunction Induced by Nanoplastics
Intestinal barrier stability is vital for gut health. Plastic polyethylene terephthalate (PET) disrupts this barrier, causing inflammation and infections. This study encodes transforming growth factor‐β into EcN and modifies its surface with pH‐responsive polymer (EcNT@L), creating an oral drug delivery system to repair nano PET‐induced intestinal ...

Foundational Models for Pathology and Endoscopy Images: Application for Gastric Inflammation [PDF]
The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in medical diagnostics represents a significant advancement in managing upper gastrointestinal (GI) cancer, a major cause of global cancer mortality. Specifically for gastric cancer (GC), chronic inflammation causes changes in the mucosa such as atrophy, intestinal metaplasia (IM), dysplasia and ...

Mitosis Detection in Intestinal Crypt Images with Hough Forest and Conditional Random Fields [PDF]
Intestinal enteroendocrine cells secrete hormones that are vital for the regulation of glucose metabolism but their differentiation from intestinal stem cells is not fully understood. Asymmetric stem cell divisions have been linked to intestinal stem cell homeostasis and secretory fate commitment.

Engineered Tissue Models to Decode Host–Microbiota Interactions
Host–Microbiota interactions in the human body. Created in BioRender. Ghezzi, C. (2025) https://BioRender.com/ihivskg. Abstract A mutualistic co‐evolution exists between the host and its associated microbiota in the human body. Bacteria establish ecological niches in various tissues of the body, locally influencing their physiology and functions, but ...

APC-β-catenin-TCF signaling silences the intestinal guanylin-GUCY2C tumor suppressor axis. [PDF]
Sporadic colorectal cancer initiates with mutations in APC or its degradation target β-catenin, producing TCF-dependent nuclear transcription driving tumorigenesis. The intestinal epithelial receptor, GUCY2C, with its canonical paracrine hormone guanylin,

A multifunctional, edible, and hydrogel‐transformable probiotic powder is developed based on the “bacteria‐mediated bacterial eradication” strategy. By leveraging the targeted binding capability of L. reuteri to H. pylori, this approach achieves an integrated therapeutic effect, including bactericidality, anti‐inflammation, gastric mucosal repair, and ...

Identification and Application of a Novel Patulin Degrading Enzyme From Meyerozyma guilliermondii
Patulin (PAT), a hazardous mycotoxin, threatens human health. A novel yeast‐derived short‐chain dehydrogenase/reductase effectively degrades PAT into nontoxic ascladiol via catalytic triad activity. The biological detoxification process has no significant effect on the quality of fresh pear juice.

Heterotopic gastric mucosa leading to chronic jejunal obstruction
Heterotopic gastric mucosa (HGM) has histologic features of gastric mucosa located outside of the stomach. The congenital form is a rare clinical entity that can present with GI bleeding, intussusception from a polypoid mass or intermittent obstruction ...
