Microbial degradation of plant toxins.

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, 2023
Plants produce a variety of secondary metabolites in response to biotic and abiotic stresses. Although they have many functions, a subclass of toxic secondary metabolites mainly serve plants as deterring agents against herbivores, insects, or pathogens ...

Animal, Herb, and Microbial Toxins for Structural and Pharmacological Study of Acid-Sensing Ion Channels. [PDF]

open access: yesFront Pharmacol, 2020
Acid-sensing ion channels (ASICs) are of the most sensitive molecular sensors of extracellular pH change in mammals. Six isoforms of these channels are widely represented in membranes of neuronal and non-neuronal cells, where these molecules are involved

Microbes against microbial toxins [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 2020
Biodegradation Algal blooms in polluted lakes are often associated with high levels of microbial toxins, including a class of cyclic peptides known as microcystins. Although these molecules are resistant to normal peptidases, some bacteria have developed

Food-Derived Uremic Toxins in Chronic Kidney Disease

open access: yesToxins, 2023
Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have a higher cardiovascular risk compared to the average population, and this is partially due to the plasma accumulation of solutes known as uremic toxins.

The woodrat gut microbiota as an experimental system for understanding microbial metabolism of dietary toxins

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2016
The microbial communities inhabiting the alimentary tracts of mammals, particularly those of herbivores, are estimated to be one of the densest microbial reservoirs on Earth.

The intestinal intermediate filament network responds to and protects against microbial insults and toxins

open access: hybridDevelopment, 2019
The enrichment of intermediate filaments in the apical cytoplasm of intestinal cells is evolutionarily conserved, forming a sheath that is anchored to apical junctions and positioned below the microvillar brush border, which suggests a protective ...

The Impact of CKD on Uremic Toxins and Gut Microbiota

open access: yesToxins, 2021
Numerous studies have indicated that the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD) to end-stage renal disease (ESRD) is strictly associated with the accumulation of toxic metabolites in blood and other metabolic compartments.

Gut dysbiosis and brain microhemorrhages in young vs. aged mice with chronic kidney disease [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
Intestinal dysbiosis and gut-derived toxins in chronic kidney diseases (CKD) are associated with vascular injury. This study examined the relationship between gut dysbiosis and cerebral microhemorrhages (CMH) in young and aged CKD mice (3 vs.
