Sevelamer Use in End-Stage Kidney Disease (ESKD) Patients Associates with Poor Vitamin K Status and High Levels of Gut-Derived Uremic Toxins: A Drug–Bug Interaction?

Toxins, 2020
Gut microbial metabolism is not only an important source of uremic toxins but may also help to maintain the vitamin K stores of the host. We hypothesized that sevelamer therapy, a commonly used phosphate binder in patients with end-stage kidney disease ...

Segmentally Variable Genes: A New Perspective on Adaptation [PDF]

, 2004
Genomic sequence variation is the hallmark of life and is key to understanding diversity and adaptation among the numerous microorganisms on earth. Analysis of the sequenced microbial genomes suggests that genes are evolving at many different rates.

Potential Use of Microbial Toxins in Treatment

, 2023
Toxins can have therapeutic applications in medicine when used in controlled and specific ways. Here are a few examples: Botulinum Toxin: Botulinum toxin, commonly known as Botox, is used for various medical purposes. It is primarily used in cosmetic procedures to reduce the appearance of wrinkles by temporarily paralyzing facial muscles. Botox is also
