OBJECTIVE
Bovine glycomacropeptide (BGMP) is an inexpensive, non-toxic milk peptide with anti-inflammatory effects in rat experimental colitis but its mechanism of action is unclear. It is also unknown whether BGMP can ameliorate inflammation in proximal regions of the intestine. Our aim was
A rabbit model of chronic ileitis has helped decipher the mechanism of alteration of multiple electrolyte and nutrient malabsorptions in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). This study examined alterations in the adenosine A1/A3 receptor, oxidant, antioxidant, and immune-inflammatory pathways in
BACKGROUND
SH2 domain containing inositol-5-phosphatase (SHIP1) is an important modulator of innate and adaptive immunity. In mice, loss of SHIP1 provokes severe ileitis resembling Crohn's disease (CD), as a result of deregulated immune responses, altered cytokine production and intestinal fibrosis.
In our previous study, we observed a severe reduction in the Src homology 2-containing-inositol-phosphatase-1 (SHIP1) protein in a subpopulation of subjects from a small adult Crohn's Disease (CD) cohort. This pilot study had been undertaken since we had previously demonstrated that engineered
OBJECTIVE
Budesonide has been studied in patients with primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC). This study was designed to evaluate the efficacy of oral budesonide on liver function tests in patients with PSC and pouchitis associated with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA).
METHODS
The study group
Porcine proliferative ileitis is a major economic burden for the swine industry, affecting growing pigs and young adult pigs. In this study, the protective efficacy of an inactivated, injectable whole-cell bacteria vaccine against L. intracellularis - Porcilis® Ileitis was evaluated under field
BACKGROUND
Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) has a well-established association with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and may represent a distinctive phenotype. It is unknown whether changes in the clinical and endoscopic presentation of newly diagnosed IBD among patients with PSC might have
Motility disorders are frequently observed in intestinal inflammation. We previously reported that in vitro treatment of intestinal smooth muscle tissue with IL-1beta decreases the expression of CPI-17, an endogenous inhibitory protein of smooth muscle serine/threonine protein phosphatase, thereby
