OBJECTIVE
To compare glucose and rice-based oral rehydration solution with rice-based oral rehydration solution containing recombinant human lactoferrin and recombinant human lysozyme in diarrhea outcomes.
METHODS
We conducted a randomized, double-blind controlled trial in children with acute
Childhood diarrhea is a significant problem in many developing countries and E. coli is a main causative agent of diarrhea in young children. Lysozyme is an antimicrobial protein highly expressed in human milk, but not ruminant milk, and is thought to help protect breastfeeding children against
The use of DNA and protein subunit vaccines in animals provides an opportunity to introduce vaccines that are arguably the safest that can be developed. For that reason, considerable effort is under way to devise methods of enhancing the immunogenicity of such vaccines. Seven years ago it was shown
In the small intestine, localized innate mucosal immunity is critical for intestinal homeostasis. Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) infection induces villus injury and impairs digestive function. Moreover, the infection might comprise localized innate mucosal immunity. This study investigated
A simple and economical method was developed for using biotinylated DNA probes to hybridize with bacterial colonies belonging to the various categories of diarrhea-causing Escherichia coli. Simplification and cost containment were achieved by using Whatman no. 541 filter papers instead of
Drug-induced gastrointestinal toxicity (GIT) is a common treatment-emergent adverse event that can negatively impact dosing, thereby limiting efficacy and treatment options for patients. An in vitro assay of GIT is needed to address patient variability, mimic the microphysiology of the gut, and
Familial amyloidoses are a group of inherited disorders that cause deposition of misfolded amyloidogenic proteins in various tissues, resulting in organ dysfunction. Point mutations in the coding region of seven different genes are known to cause clinically significant systemic amyloid disease. We
Clostridium difficile is a clinically important pathogen and the most common cause of hospital-acquired infectious diarrhea. Expression of the C. difficile gene csfV, which encodes σ(V), an extracytoplasmic function σ factor, is induced by lysozyme, which damages the peptidoglycan of bacteria. Here
In food toxinfections caused by various microorganisms (Staphylococcus, Escherichia, Klebsiella, Proteus, Citrobacter, etc.) a decrease of lysozyme debit and an increase of pH of gastric juice were found. One third of patients exhibited lactose deficiency of the small intestine. Treatment with
Clostridioides (Clostridium) difficile is a major cause of hospital-acquired infections leading to antibiotic-associated diarrhea. C. difficile exhibits a very high level of resistance to lysozyme. Bacteria commonly resist lysozyme through modification of the cell wall. In C.
Serum lysozyme (muramidase) activity was determined by the Lyso-Plate diffusion technic in 419 subjects consisting of normal persons and patients with Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, nonspecific diarrhea and various other disorders. Lysozyme activity in the normal subjects did not exceed 37.8
