OBJECTIVE
Because of the regulatory role of neuropeptide Y (NPY) in angiogenesis, we set out to determine the presence of the leucine 7-proline 7 (Leu7Pro) polymorphism in exudative age-related macular degeneration (AMD) patients and to analyse its implications.
METHODS
Genotype analysis of the
Lower levels of tryptophan (TRP) have been identified in people with inflammatory bowel disease and in dogs with protein-losing enteropathy (PLE). No data on serum amino acids (AAs) but some on plasma in canine immunosuppressant-responsive enteropathy (IRE) are available. The aim of The immune dysregulation, polyendocrinopathy, enteropathy, X-linked (IPEX) syndrome is a rare, x-linked, recessive disorder characterized by dysfunction of the T regulatory (Treg) lymphocytes leading to autoimmune diseases. Herein we report a male patient with IPEX syndrome who presented with severe
Proteinuria in dogs with kidney disease can contribute to protein-energy wasting and malnutrition. Little is known about amino acid (AA) status in dogs with protein-losing nephropathy (PLN).The purpose of our study was to further elucidate AA status in PLN To determine the plasma metabolomic profile of exudative age-related macular degeneration (AMD), we performed a targeted metabolomics study on the plasma from patients (n = 40, mean age = 81.1) compared to an age- and sex-matched control group (n = 40, mean age = 81.8). All included
BACKGROUND
Inbred LEW/N and F344/N rats respectively, are susceptible and relatively resistant to a broad range of inflammatory/autoimmune diseases. We recently identified a quantitative trait locus (QTL) on chromosome 10 that protects the F344/N rat from carrageenan-induced exudation in a dominant
Exogenous enzymes are administered orally to treat several diseases, such as pancreatic insufficiency and lactose intolerance. Due to the proteinaceous nature of enzymes, they are subject to inactivation and/or digestion in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Here we describe a convenient
Lymphocytic-plasmacytic enteritis is the common form of idiopathic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in dogs. In human IBD, disturbances of amino acid metabolism have been demonstrated to be involved in the pathophysiology of IBD. Therefore, plasma amino acid profile might represent a BACKGROUND
The effects of glutamine (Gln)-enriched enteral diets on bacterial clearance were investigated in a rat protracted peritonitis model. The effects of the Gln form, peptide-based vs free amino acid-based, were also compared.
METHODS
Twenty-three rats underwent gastrostomy. An osmotic pump
Celiac disease is a chronic enteropathy caused by the ingestion of wheat gliadin and other cereal prolamines. The synthetic peptides 31-43 (P31-43) and 31-49 (P31-49) from A-gliadin are considered to be model peptides for studying innate immunity in celiac disease. Our previous study demonstrated
Celiac disease is an enteropathy caused by intolerance to dietary gluten. The disorder is strongly associated with DQA1*0501/DQB1*0201 (HLA-DQ2) as approximately 95% of celiac patients express this molecule. HLA-DQ2 has unique Ag-binding properties that allow it to present a diverse set of gluten
Celiac disease (CeD) is an autoimmune enteropathy caused by gluten intake in genetically predisposed individuals. We investigated the metabolism of CeD by metabolic profiling of intestinal mucosa, blood plasma and urine using NMR spectroscopy and multivariate analysis. The metabolic profile of the
The antibody response of patients with gluten-sensitive enteropathy and dermatitis herpetiformis against alcohol-soluble prolamines of wheat, rye, barley, oats and corn assessed by immunoblotting was compared to the staining patterns produced by monoclonal antigliadin antibodies. Both monoclonal
Celiac Disease (CeD) is a highly prevalent chronic immune-mediated enteropathy developed in genetically predisposed individuals after ingestion of a group of wheat proteins (called gliadins and glutenins). The 13mer α-gliadin peptide, p31-43, induces proinflammatory responses, observed by in vitro
BACKGROUND
Celiac disease is a T cell mediated-inflammatory enteropathy caused by the ingestion of gluten in genetically predisposed individuals carrying HLA-DQ2 or HLA-DQ8. The immunogenic gliadin epitopes, containing multiple glutamine and proline residues, are largely resistant to degradation by
