Enteral nutrition has a primary therapeutic effect in active Crohn's disease. It is unknown which nutrient(s) account for this action, but a role for both the amount and type of dietary fat has been postulated. Some clinical and experimental data suggest that medium-chain triglycerides (MCT) may
BACKGROUND
Although enteral nutrition (EN) therapy for Crohn's disease has been confirmed to be as effective as steroid therapy, the precise mechanism responsible for the effects of EN remains unclear, although some of the therapeutic effects of EN are believed to be due to a low dietary fat
The specific purpose of this study was to evaluate the significant effects of medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) and N-3 fatty acids on chemically induced experimental colitis induced by 2,4,6-trinitrobenzene sulphonic acid (TNBS) in rats. Male Wistar rats were fed liquid diets enriched with N-6
Serum copper, zinc, selenium, magnesium, calcium, cholesterol, triglyceride and retinol contents were determined in 11 patients with ulcerative colitis and in 20 healthy volunteers. Lipid and retinol loadings were performed as well. No differences were found in serum copper, zinc, calcium and
The effects of dietary medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) on experimental colitis induced by 2,4,6-trinitrobenzene sulphonic acid (TNBS) were investigated in rats. Male Wistar rats were given an intracolonic injection of TNBS and were then fed liquid diets containing MCTs or corn oil (AIN93) as
BACKGROUND
Soybean oil is rich in ω-6 fatty acids, which are associated with higher incidence and more severe cases of inflammatory bowel diseases. The authors evaluated whether partial replacement of soybean oil by medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) or olive oil influenced the incidence and severity
Abnormal lipid metabolism is one of many factors that contribute to the development of ulcerative colitis (UC). As a lipid droplet-associated protein, Cideb facilitated the export of lipids from enterocytes and promoted intestinal lipid absorption. We found that Cideb was upregulated in the colonic
This study investigated the effect of Urtica dioica, known as stinging nettle, seed oil (UDO) treatment on colonic tissue and blood parameters of trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS)-induced colitis in rats. Experimental colitis was induced with 1 mL of TNBS in 40% ethanol by intracolonic
OBJECTIVE
Chronic inflammation in the ileal pouch is the most significant late complication after ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA). It leads to changes in mucosal morphology, with consequent decreased vitamin B12, bile acid and cholesterol absorption documented. The aims of this study were to
N-3 fatty acids were supplied to a 36-year-old female patient suffering from ulcerative colitis and severe steroid side-effects, in a sequence of parenteral and enteral administration. During a moderately active period of disease, 200 ml d-1 fish oil-derived lipid emulsion (eicosapentaenoic acid
We have analyzed the prothrombotic risk factors in 124 patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) as compared with control subjects with other gastrointestinal disorders. The patients were hospitalized from 1991 to 2000 in the Department of Internal Medicine. Platelets level was significantly higher (p <
The present study was undertaken to investigate the effects of parenteral lipid emulsions (LE) enriched with n-3 fatty acids (n-3 FA) in experimental acute colitis. Seventy-four adult male Wistar rats were randomized into six groups, five of which had acetic acid-induced colitis. The animals
The use of monotherapy with intensive granulocyte and monocyte adsorptive apheresis (GMA) or a Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor has been limited to patients with refractory ulcerative colitis (UC). The efficacy and safety of combination therapy with tofacitinib (TOF) plus intensive GMA CD1d is a major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I-related molecule that functions in glycolipid antigen presentation to distinct subsets of T cells that express natural killer receptors and an invariant T-cell receptor-alpha chain (invariant NKT cells). The acquisition of glycolipid antigens
The authors recently reported the occurrence of low fasting serum triglyceride (TG) and high free fatty acid (FFA) levels in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. TG estimation in diverse groups of patients with autoimmune disease or hyperactive immune response confirmed the occurrence of a similar
