Specific microbiota direct the differentiation of Th17 cells in the mucosa of the small intestine

open access: yesCell Host and Microbe, 2008
SUMMARY IL-17-producing T-helper cells (Th17) are potent effectors of inflammation, but little is known about the requirements for their differentiation in vivo at steady state.

Experience With Performing Rheocarna Therapy via the Single‐Needle Method for Treatment of Chronic Limb‐Threatening Ischemia

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction This study investigated the safety and efficacy of single‐needle Rheocarna therapy for chronic limb‐threatening ischemia (CLTI) with wounds. Methods Six patients with CLTI involving ulcers unresponsive to revascularization underwent single‐needle Rheocarna treatment.

Enteropathogenic E. coli shows delayed attachment and host response in human jejunum organoid‐derived monolayers compared to HeLa cells

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...

Small intestine: chronic disease

open access: yes, 2019
The major clinical manifestations of chronic small intestinal disease, namely diarrhoea, vomiting and weight loss, reflect perturbations in the digestive and absorptive function of the small intestine and its resident bacterial population.

Role of the Small Intestine in Developmental Programming: Impact of Maternal Nutrition on the Dam and Offspring.

open access: yesAdvances in Nutrition, 2016
Small-intestinal growth and function are critical for optimal animal growth and health and play a major role in nutrient digestion and absorption, energy and nutrient expenditure, and immunological competence.

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

Presence of atrial natriuretic factor prohormone in enterochromaffin cells of the human large intestine [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
Atrial natriuretic factor is a hormone intimately involved in water and salt homeostasis. The heart constitutes the major but not exclusive site of synthesis of this hormone.
