OBJECTIVE
The relationship between intestinal pathology and immune expulsion of gastrointestinal nematodes remains controversial. Immune expulsion of gastrointestinal helminth parasites is usually associated with Th2 responses, but the effector mechanisms directly responsible for parasite loss have
The specific susceptibility of the intestinal mucosa to low blood flow states is related to the "physiologic" makeup of the intestinal milieu. Pancreatic proteases appear to play a crucial role in the ischemic autodigestion of the intestinal mucosa. Moreover, trypsin can activate the conversion of
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate intestinal permeability and gluten sensitivity in a family of Soft-Coated Wheaten Terriers (SCWT) affected with protein-losing enteropathy (PLE), protein-losing nephropathy (PLN), or both.
METHODS
6 affected adult dogs.
METHODS
Intestinal biopsy specimens, urine
Anti-inflammatory actions of proteases, bromelain (BR), trypsin (TR) and their mixed preparation (KT) were studied mainly in rabbits using various experimental test methods. Inhibitory action of edema formation induced by carrageenin was observed to be dose dependent with oral administrations of KT.
OBJECTIVE
To develop and validate an ELISA for quantifying alpha 1-protease inhibitor (alpha 1-PI) in serum and fecal extracts.
METHODS
Affinity-purified rabbit origin canine alpha 1-PI antibodies were biotinylated and, after addition of streptavidin-horseradish peroxidase, were used as the labeled
Syndromic congenital tufting enteropathy (CTE) is a life-threatening recessive human genetic disorder, which is caused by mutations in SPINT2, encoding the protease inhibitor, HAI-2, and is characterized by severe intestinal dysfunction. We recently reported the generation of a
OBJECTIVE
To determine, using a specific small-molecule inhibitor of protease-activated receptor 1 (PAR1) signaling, whether the beneficial effect of thrombin inhibition on radiation enteropathy development is due to inhibition of blood clotting or to cellular (PAR1-mediated) thrombin
OBJECTIVE
Protease-activated receptor-2 (PAR(2)) is highly expressed throughout the gut and regulates the inflammatory, mitogenic, fibroproliferative, and nociceptive responses to injury. PAR(2) is strikingly upregulated and exhibits increased activation in response to intestinal irradiation. We
OBJECTIVE
To improve a previously described purification process by producing a higher yield and purity of alpha 1-protease inhibitor (alpha 1-PI) from canine plasma.
METHODS
Plasma pool from 10 clinically normal male dogs.
METHODS
Canine alpha 1-PI was purified by use of ammonium sulfate
The purpose of this study was to evaluate Soft Coated Wheaten Terriers (SCWTs) affected with protein-losing enteropathy (PLE) or protein-losing nephropathy (PLN) or both for allergy to food. We performed gastroscopic food-sensitivity testing, a provocative dietary trial, and measurement of fecal
Dermatophilus congolensis is a filamentous branching actinomycete that causes dermatophilosis, an exudative dermatitis in ruminants. The pathogenesis of this disease is poorly understood and virulence factors of D. congolensis have not been characterised. Culture filtrate (CF) of 14 D. congolensis
Prostasin (CAP1/PRSS8) is a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored serine protease that is essential for epithelial development and overall survival in mice. Prostasin is regulated primarily by the transmembrane serine protease inhibitor, hepatocyte growth factor activator inhibitor (HAI)-2,
Mucosal graft-versus-host reaction (GvHR) of the small intestine exemplifies an immunologically mediated enteropathy that is associated with expansion of mucosal mast cells (MMC). Quantitative measures of intestinal morphology, epithelial cell kinetics and mucosal immune activity were used to assess
Serglycin proteoglycans are essential for maturation of secretory granules and for the correct granular storage of cationic proteases in hematopoietic cells, e.g. mast cells. However, little is known about the in vivo functions of serglycin proteoglycans during infection. Here we investigated the
