Hyodeoxycholic acid modulates gut microbiota and bile acid metabolism to enhance intestinal barrier function in piglets

Frontiers in Veterinary Science
Oral bile acids, particularly hyodeoxycholic acid (HDCA), serve as critical drivers for gut microbial community maturation in mice. In the first study, Cy5-labeled HDCA combined with fluorescence imaging revealed rapid gastrointestinal transit of HDCA in

Mechanisms of parasite‐mediated disruption of brain vessels

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Parasites can affect the blood vessels of the brain, often causing serious neurological problems. This review explains how different parasites interact with and disrupt these vessels, what this means for brain health, and why these processes matter. Understanding these mechanisms may help us develop better ways to prevent or treat brain infections in ...
