The aim of this study is to evaluate antidiarrheal activity of SKB_Gutbiotic against Castor oil and E.coli induced diarrhea in Swiss albino mice and Sprague Dawley rats. In present study three doses of SKB_Gutbiotic were tested against castor oil induced diarrhea in mice. Its effect on
Lactoferrin (Lf), an iron-binding multifunctional glycoprotein, is abundantly present in colostrum and milk of different species such as humans, bovines, and mice. Our previous observation revealed that bovine colostral Lf is transported into the systemic circulation and cerebrospinal fluid from
To clarify the mechanism of castor oil-induced diarrhea, this study was performed by using rats in relation to nitric oxide (NO) and prostaglandin (PG). Castor oil induced diarrhea in all rats within 3 hr in the control group. The pretreatment of NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester prevented the
To evaluate whether L-arginine methyl ester (L-Arg) can improve the structure of the small intestine and enhance adaptation in an experimental model of short-bowel syndrome (SBS), 40 Sprague-Dawley rats were divided randomly into four groups of 10 each. In one group only a laparotomy was performed
For biotherapeutic agents, there is a lack of information on dose-response relationships and mechanism of action. The present study was designed to address these issues for Saccharomyces boulardii using the rat model of castor oil-induced diarrhea. A single dose of Saccharomyces boulardii at 12 x
The effect of NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME) on castor oil-induced diarrhea was studied in control rats and those treated with isosorbide dinitrate or isosorbide-5-mononitrate. Castor oil (2 ml) produced diarrhea that lasted at least 8 h. Pretreatment of the rats with L-NAME (1-25 mg/kg
Nitric oxide (NO) plays an important role as a nonadrenergic, noncholinergic inhibitory neurotransmitter in the GI tract. Our study aims were to investigate the effect of a single intragastric L-arginine (L-Arg) administration, as a source of NO, on proximal stomach tone in basal and
OBJECTIVE
To elucidate the mechanism of patchouli alcohol (PA) in treatment of rat models of diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-D).
METHODS
We studied the effects of PA on colonic spontaneous motility using its cumulative log concentration (3 × 10-7 mol/L to 1 × 10-4 mol/L). We then
We studied: (a) the adverse effects of tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF) given during whole body hyperthermia (WBH) on mean arterial pressure (MAP) and gut mucosa in anaesthetized rats; (b) the potential protective effect of NG-monomethyl-L-arginine (L-NMA), an inhibitor of nitric oxide synthase;
Beneficial effects of L-arginine on immune responses and bowel function have been reported. Mucositis is a side effect of chemotherapy treatment that affects approximately 40% of patients. This complication is characterized by inflammation that affects the gastrointestinal tract, increasing
Lysinuric protein intolerance is an autosomal recessive disease, due to a defect in intestinal, renal and hepatic dibasic amino acid transport. Two new cases in the same family are reported. The disease appears progressively during the first months of life with failure to thrive, anorexia, vomiting,
The effect of the aqueous (aq) seed extract of Aframomum melegueta. K. Schum. (Zingiberaceae) on castor oil-induced diarrhea, intestinal fluid secretion, and gastrointestinal transit was investigated in the study. Castor oil (10 ml/kg, p.o.) induced copious diarrhea in all rats 3 h after treatment.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of low doses of l-arginine supplementation on hemogram, integrity of DNA and spleen, inflammatory infiltrate in the jejunum, and in the coagulogram of rats submitted to 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) OBJECTIVE
To investigate the effect of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) on the diarrheogenic activity, gastrointestinal transit (GIT), and intestinal fluid content and the possible role of nitric oxide (NO) and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) in gastrointestinal functions of endotoxin-treated
The name Vibrio hollisae (synonym = Special Bacteriology group EF-13) is proposed for a new group of 16 strains that occurred in stool cultures of patients with diarrhea. V. hollisae is a small gram-negative rod, which is motile with a single polar flagellum. No lateral or peritrichous flagella were
