Fermented lingonberry juice's effects on active MMP‐8 (aMMP‐8), bleeding on probing (BOP), and visible plaque index (VPI) in dental implants—A clinical pilot mouthwash study

Clinical and Experimental Dental Research, Volume 8, Issue 6, Page 1322-1330, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Objectives We aimed to study the effects of fermented lingonberry juice (FLJ) as a mouthwash on the levels of active matrix metalloproteinase‐8 (aMMP‐8) in peri‐implant sulcular fluid (PISF), bleeding on probing (BOP), and visible plaque index (VPI). We hypothesized that FLJ rinsing could reduce inflammation (aMMP‐8 and BOP) and microbial load

Probiotics and allergy [PDF]

Proceedings of the Nutrition Society, 2005
Allergy is caused by an immune reaction that is out of all proportion to the antigenic stimuli. Classical allergy is a type I hypersensitivity reaction mediated by the interaction of mast cells (and eosinophils) coated with allergen-specific IgE and a cross-linking allergen.

Gut Microbiota Colonization in Early Life Influences Susceptibility to Adulthood Hepatic Lipid Accumulation in High‐Fat‐Diet‐Fed Mice

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study indicates that perinatal antibiotic exposure elevates susceptibility to high‐fat‐diet‐induced hepatic lipid accumulation via disrupting early‐life gut microbiota colonization. The decreased Lactobacillus colonization inhibits primary‐to‐secondary bile acid conversion, lowering secondary bile acids, enhancing adulthood intestinal lipid ...

Photonics study of probiotic treatment on brain cells exposed to chronic alcoholism using molecular specific nuclear light localization properties via confocal imaging [PDF]

arXiv, 2019
Molecular specific photonics localization technique, the inverse participation ratio (IPR), is a powerful technique to probe the nanoscale structural alterations due to abnormalities or chronic alcoholism in brain cells using the confocal image. Chronic alcoholism is correlated with medical, behavioral, and psychological problems including brain cell ...

Revising immune cell coordination: Origins and importance of single‐cell variation

European Journal of Immunology, Volume 52, Issue 12, Page 1889-1897, December 2022., 2022
Single immune cell coordination relies on heterogeneous cellular decision‐making subject to noise, stochastic inputs, and deterministic cell fates. To coordinate collective, population‐wide immune responses, single immune cells are part of complex signaling networks, in which cells rely on various communication strategies.

Mechanisms of Baicalin Alleviates Intestinal Inflammation: Role of M1 Macrophage Polarization and Lactobacillus amylovorus

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Baicalin alleviates E. coli‐induced intestinal inflammation through dual mechanisms: direct inhibition of the TLR4/IRF/STAT signaling pathway to modulate macrophage polarization and antigen presentation, thereby regulating Th17/Treg cell differentiation; and microbiota‐mediated indirect effects via increasing Lactobacillus amylovorus abundance and ...

Decoding Blastocystis‐Driven Mechanisms in Gut Microbiota and Host Metabolism

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Blastocystis, a prevalent gut microbe, interacts with the host through metabolic and immune pathways, influencing cardiometabolic health. This perspective explores its role in modulating short‐chain fatty acid production, tryptophan metabolism, and immune signaling, potentially impacting cholesterol absorption, glucose metabolism, and vascular health ...

Engineered Probiotics Mitigate Gut Barrier Dysfunction Induced by Nanoplastics

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Intestinal barrier stability is vital for gut health. Plastic polyethylene terephthalate (PET) disrupts this barrier, causing inflammation and infections. This study encodes transforming growth factor‐β into EcN and modifies its surface with pH‐responsive polymer (EcNT@L), creating an oral drug delivery system to repair nano PET‐induced intestinal ...
