Background: Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a risk factor for chronic lung allograft dysfunction. Bile acids-putative markers of gastric microaspiration-and inflammatory proteins in the bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) have been associated with chronic lung
OBJECTIVE
To determine free and conjugated serum bile acid (BA) levels in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) subgroups with defined clinical manifestations.
METHODS
Comprehensive serum BA profiling was performed in 358 IBD patients and 310 healthy controls by liquid chromatography coupled to
In order to investigate the effect of bile acids on gastrointestinal inflammations, bile duct ligated rats (BDL) were treated with GCA (25 mM/ml, oral or colonic) or saline I h before ethanol challenge and twice daily for 3 days in the ileitis group, while GCA was given twice daily for 3 days in the
The effect of bile acids on antibiotic resistant strains of Staphylococcus, Proteus, E. coli and Ps. aeruginosa isolated from patients with different purulent inflammatory processes was studied. It was shown in vitro that glycocholic and deoxycholic acids lowered the resistance of the above
The incidence of esophageal adenocarcinoma is increasing rapidly. In rats, surgically induced duodenoesophageal reflux is carcinogenic. One proposed mechanism of carcinogenesis is based on the reaction of physiological bile acids with nitrite to produce carcinogenic N:-nitroso amides. To test this
Gout Party is a Chinese medicine prescription composed of Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparaia, Aconiti Radix Cocta, Cremastrae Pseudobulbus Pleiones Pseudobulbus, Smilacis Glabrae Rhizoma, Rehmanniae Radix, and Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, which can relieve joint pain caused by gouty
Ascites is a major problem for both human health and animal production, due to its association with high rates of morbidity and mortality, low efficiency of nutrient utilization, and permanent adverse effects on performance. Although it is one of the three major metabolic diseases in poultry
OBJECTIVE
Vitamin B6 status in the body is affected by several factors including dietary supply of the antivitamin B6 factor, 1-amino D-proline (1ADP), which is present in flaxseed. Owing to the prevalence of moderate B6 deficiency in the general population, a co-occurrence of 1ADP may lead to a
In the present study we examined the effects of acute thermal and chemical stimuli and gastric ulceration on mechanosensitive gastric vagal afferent fibers. Single-fiber recordings were made from the cervical vagus nerve. Mechanosensitive afferent fibers were identified by response to gastric
Inflammation can enhance responses to different stimuli consistent with the development of hypersensitivity. To determine whether sequentially applied stimuli interact, we determined visceromotor responses (VMR) to gastric distension, measured at baseline and 60 min after instillation of saline,
The accumulation of toxic bile acids (BAs) is closely related to liver injury, inflammation and tumorigenesis. The aim of the present study was to determine the role of the serum BA spectrum in the diagnosis and progression of liver cirrhosis. This was a prospective observational study involving
Zhibaidihuang decoction (ZBDHD) is a Chinese herbal formula, which is used in Chinese traditional medicine to treat symptoms of Yinxuhuowang (Yin deficiency and high fire) syndrome. This study elucidates the mechanism of ZBDHD on oral ulcers, one Yinxuhuowang syndrome. Simultaneously, some
Metabolomics has been applied to explore altered metabolite profiles in disease and identify unique metabolic signatures specific to certain pathologies. The aim of the current study is to characterize the metabolic profile of patients diagnosed with lupus nephritis (LN) and explore new insights
Ulcerative colitis (UC), a kind of inflammatory bowel disease, is generally characterized by chronic, persistent, relapsing, and nonspecific ulceration of the bowel, which is widespread in the world. Although the pathogenesis of UC is multifactorial, growing evidence has demonstrated that gut
OBJECTIVE
The effects of diets high in refined grains on biliary and colonic bile acids have been investigated extensively. However, the effects of diets high in whole versus refined grains on circulating bile acids, which can influence glucose homeostasis and inflammation through activation of
