OBJECTIVE
2-Deoxy-2-[18F]fluoro-D-glucose ([18F]FDG) accumulates in tumors and also during active inflammation, including therapy-related inflammation. Additional PET tracers that are less avid to inflammation could be useful in differentiating cancer from inflammation and could complement the
The positron emission tomography (PET) probe, 2-amino-[3-¹¹C]isobutyric acid ([3-¹¹C]AIB), is reported to accumulate less in inflammatory lesions than 2-deoxy-2-[¹⁸F]fluoro-D-glucose ([¹⁸F]FDG) and has the potential for evaluation of the efficacy of radiotherapy. To determine whether [3-¹¹C]AIB is
Oxidative stress imposed by reactive oxygen species plays a crucial role in pathophysiology of inflammatory diseases. In the present study, sesquiterpenoids and diterpenoids isolated from Siegesbeckia pubescens, a Chinese traditional medicine used to treat arthritis, were evaluated for inhibition of
Indomethacin has been shown to inhibit selectively the rate of alpha-(methylamino)-isobutyric acid (MeAIB) uptake by the "A" transport system in several cell types. This study was undertaken to determine if this activity was shared by other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID), if the
The saying "An apple a day keeps the doctor away" has been known for over 150 years, and numerous studies have shown that apple consumption is closely associated with reduced risks of chronic diseases. It has been well accepted that dysbiosis is the reflection of various chronic diseases. Therefore,
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of diet supplementation with live yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) and mannan-oligosaccharides (MOS) on ruminal parameters, nutrient digestibility, and the inflammatory response in cattle fed grain-based diets. Three Holstein steers (body
The effect of selected short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) produced by anaerobic bacteria on the production in vitro of procoagulant activity (PCA) by human mononuclear cells stimulated by either Escherichia coli or Bacteroides fragilis which are common pathogens in intra-abdominal infections was
The ultrastructure and the blood-brain-barrier (BBB) permeability were studied in mice suffering from lymphocytic choriomeningitis (LCM). Brains and meninges from mice suffering from LCM virus-induced lymphocytic choriomeningitis were studied by investigating the BBB function and by electron and
Objective: To determine the concentration of stool short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) in critically ill patients with sepsis and to compare the results between the critically ill patient and the control group.Methods: This descriptive, multicenter, observational study was conducted in
Subject material for this study was pus collected from patients with purulent inflammation in the oro-maxillary region. Direct gas-liquid chromatography (GLC) analysis was made, bacterial isolation and identification were carried out, and comparisons were made with results from GLC analysis and
Palm oil (PO), leaf lard oil (LO), rapeseed oil (RO), sunflower oil (SO), and linseed oil (LINO) are the five of the most typical dietary lipids, while few studies have explored and compared their influences on the serum lipid profiles, colonic short chain fatty acids (SCFAs) composition and colon
BACKGROUND
Endotoxemia is characterized by a marked increase in the uptake of amino acids by the liver, but the regulation of this response has not been fully elucidated. In the current study, we investigated the potential role of prostaglandins as mediators of this response. We examined the in vivo
We hypothesized that short chain fatty acid (SCFA) production by oral pathogens is suppressed by exposure to cigarette smoke extract (CSE).Tobacco smoking is a major risk factor for plaque-induced periodontal diseases. Despite increased disease Short chain fatty acids (SCFAs) being produced during fermentation of non-digestible polysaccharides are regulatory compounds with the potential to influence inflammatory, as well as emotional state and cognition through the gut⁻brain axis. We analyzed the association between stool concentration of
