Enteric Defensin Expression in Necrotizing Enterocolitis [PDF]
Immaturity of local innate defenses has been suggested as a factor involved in the pathophysiology of necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC). The mRNA of enteric human defensins 5 (HD5) and 6 (HD6), antibiotic peptides expressed in Paneth cells of the small intestine, have significantly lower levels of expression in fetal life compared with the term newborn ...

Effects of Feed Additives and Mixed Eimeria Species Infection on Intestinal Microbial Ecology of Broilers [PDF]
Evaluation of digestive microbial ecology is necessary to understand effects of growth-promoting feed. In the current study, the dynamics of intestinal microbial communities (MC) were examined in broilers fed diets supplemented with a combination of ...

Current Cell/Organoid and Animal Models for Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis
Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a chronic cholestatic liver disease with limited therapeutic options and a marked risk of progression to biliary fibrosis, cirrhosis, and malignancy. Progress in PSC research has been hindered by the lack of models that faithfully recapitulate the complex biliary microenvironment and disease heterogeneity ...

Genome analysis of Clostridium perfringens isolates from healthy and necrotic enteritis infected chickens and turkeys [PDF]
Objective: Clostridium perfringens causes gastrointestinal diseases in both humans and domestic animals. Type A strains expressing the NetB toxin are the main cause of necrotic enteritis (NE) in chickens, which has remarkable impact on animal welfare and
