Hypoxia-induced intestinal barrier injuries lead to necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC). Although NEC in preterm neonates is preventable by human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs), the underlying mechanism remains unknown.To reveal the role and mechanism of HMOs in We studied the cognitive improving and cerebral protective constituents in the roots of Polygala tenuifolia Willdenow, a well-known Chinese traditional medicine prescribed for amnesia, neurasthenia, palpitation, noctural emission and insomnia. Tenuifoliside B (1), which is one of the acylated
Codonopsis pilosula is a traditional Chinese medicine and food supplement that is widely used in China. This study aimed to investigate the antifatigue and antihypoxia activities of different extracts and fractions from C. pilosula, including ethanol extract (ETH), water extract (WAT),
Background: Evidence is accruing to suggest that microbiota-gut-brain signalling plays a regulatory role in cardiorespiratory physiology. Chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH), modelling human sleep apnoea, affects gut microbiota composition
2'-Fucosyllactose (2FL) is the most abundant component of the oligosaccharide content in human milk. It has been reported that 2FL has the ability to protect against infectious disease caused by bacterial pathogens. In this study, we investigated the protective effects of 2FL on particulate matter
Neonatal cerebral ischemic injury is a common and debilitating pathology for which there is currently no known purely pharmacological treatments that are effective when delivered immediately after injury. Cyclodextrins are cyclic oligosaccharides that can remove cholesterol from cell membranes and
Spalax, a subterranean blind mole rat, is well adapted to live in an extreme hypoxic environment through up-regulated expression of growth factors and enzymes for ensuring sufficient oxygen supply. One of the overexpressed enzymes is heparanase, an endoglucuronidase that selectively cleaves heparan
Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is a devastating disease that is highly lethal in premature infants. Human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) efficiently reduce the incidence of NEC. However, the protective mechanism of HMO treatment is unknown. It is hypothesized that HMOs protect against BACKGROUND
Necrotising enterocolitis (NEC) is one of the most common and fatal intestinal disorders in preterm infants. Breast-fed infants are at lower risk for NEC than formula-fed infants, but the protective components in human milk have not been identified. In contrast to formula, human milk
Here, we identified inulin-type oligosaccharides with 3-13 degrees of polymerization from Morinda officinalis. Radical-scavenging assays showed that Inulins 4-7 had modest anti-oxidative effects. Inulins 4 and 5 dose-dependently increased human umbilical vein endothelial cell survival during
The purpose of this review is to give an update of the recent progress in research on erythropoietin (Epo), the hormone that regulates red blood cell production. Epo is a glycoprotein with a molecular mass of approx 30 kDa, which circulates in plasma of the human with 165 amino acids with three
Up to now eight patients with alpha-NAGA deficiency have been described. This includes the newly identified patient reported here who died unexpectedly aged 1 1/2 years of hypoxia during convulsions; necropsy was not performed. Three patients have been genotyped previously and here we report the
Twelve healthy young males volunteered in this pilot-study to test the encephalotropic potency of a deproteinized hemodialysate of calf blood (Actovegin). This compound contains peptides, oligosaccharides and nucleinic acid derivatives, which are supposed to improve transport of glucose and oxygen
1. Ischaemia was applied for 30 min to the liver of Wistar rats and of gsd/gsd rats, which have a genetic deficiency of phosphorylase kinase. The rate of glycogenolysis corresponded closely to the concentration of phosphorylase a. The loss of glycogen from Wistar livers was accounted for by the
Anoxic conditions should hamper the transport of sugar in the phloem, as this is an active process. The canopy is a carbohydrate source and the roots are carbohydrate sinks. By fumigating the shoot with N2 or flooding the rhizosphere, anoxic conditions in the source or sink, respectively, were
