Mucosal microbiota of intestinal polyps reveals putative biomarkers of colorectal cancer [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
AbstractThe human intestine retains a complex microbial ecosystem, which performs crucial functions that impact on host health. Several studies have indicated that intestinal dysbiosis may impact on the establishment of life-threatening intestinal diseases such as colorectal cancer. An adenomatous polyp is the result of abnormal tissue growth, which is

Protopine Alleviates Dextran Sodium Sulfate-Induced Ulcerative Colitis by Improving Intestinal Barrier Function and Regulating Intestinal Microbiota

open access: yesMolecules, 2023
Ulcerative colitis (UC) is an inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and its pathogenesis is related to intestinal mucosal barrier damage and gut microbiota imbalance. Protopine (PRO), an isoquinoline alkaloid, is one of the main anti-inflammatory ingredients

Intestinal gene expression in pigs: effects of reduced feed intake during weaning and potential impact of dietary components [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The weaning transition is characterised by morphological, histological and microbial changes, often leading to weaning-associated disorders. These intestinal changes can partly be ascribed to the lack of luminal nutrition arising from the reduced feed ...

Molecular characterisation of selected gastrointestinal microbiota in South African HIV-positive patients during HAART [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Includes bibliographical references.Progression of the HIV disease is characterised by a massive depletion of CD4+ T cells and it has been shown that patients living with a more advanced HIV infection have a higher risk of developing diarrhoea due to the

Acetylation: a critical factor in maintaining intestinal inflammation? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
PhDIn inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), both chronic pro-inflammatory pathways and failure of anti-inflammatory (healing) mechanisms sustain disease. The two major anti-inflammatory gut cytokines are transforming growth factor (TGF)-β and interleukin (IL)

Gut Microbiota Signatures in Tumor, Para-Cancerous, Normal Mucosa, and Feces in Colorectal Cancer Patients

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Background: Association studies have linked microbiome alterations with colorectal cancer (CRC). However, differences in tumor, para-cancerous, normal mucosal, and fecal microbiota remain to be strengthened.Methods: We performed a study on the ...

Salmonella transiently reside in luminal neutrophils in the inflamed gut. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Enteric pathogens need to grow efficiently in the gut lumen in order to cause disease and ensure transmission. The interior of the gut forms a complex environment comprising the mucosal surface area and the inner gut lumen with epithelial cell debris and

The Role of Intestinal Microbiota in the Development and Severity of Chemotherapy-Induced Mucositis

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2010
Mucositis, also referred to as mucosal barrier injury, is one of the most debilitating side effects of radiotherapy and chemotherapy treatment. Clinically, mucositis is associated with pain, bacteremia, and malnutrition. Furthermore, mucositis is a frequent reason to postpone chemotherapy treatment, ultimately leading towards a higher mortality in ...
