The jejunal mucosa of pigs fed diets containing Phaseolus vulgaris beans was characterized grossly as mucosal atrophy and microscopically as atrophy and blunting of the villus in association with elongation of crypts with cells with increased mitotic activity. These morphologic findings were most

BACKGROUND Infantile food protein-induced enterocolitis syndrome (FPIES) is a severe, cell-mediated gastrointestinal food hypersensitivity typically provoked by cow's milk or soy. Solid foods are rarely considered a cause. OBJECTIVE To describe the clinical characteristics and natural history of

Phytohemagglutinin (PHA), derived from red kidney bean (Phaseolus vulgaris), can induce malabsorption and diarrhea when fed to rats. In this study, we determined the effect of PHA on ion transport in the rabbit ileum in vitro. Compared with control tissues, PHA (1 mg/ml) added to the mucosal

Dietary tannins are reported to impair the absorption of nutrients and minerals in whole animals and in semi-isolated intestinal preparations. The present studies investigated the effect of purified procyanidin from black beans (Phaseolus vulgarus) on tissue electrical parameters, isotopic Na+ and

On December 6, 1979, three luncheon banquets were served in a New Jersey restaurant. Thirty-eight of 41 members (92.7%) of the first group became ill as did 25 of 31 members (80.6%) of the second group. None of 12 members of the third group were ill. Illness consisted primarily of diarrhea (76%),
