Ionizing radiation causes acute syndrome, which leads to hematopoietic, gastrointestinal, and cerebrovascular injuries. We investigated a population of mice that recovered from high-dose live normal life spans. These "elite-survivors" harbored distinct gut microbiota developed after protected against radiation-induced damage death in both germ-free conventionally housed recipients. Elevated abundances members the bacterial taxa

Caffeic acid (CA) is one of the major phenolic acids coffee with multiple biological activities. Our previous study found that 500 mg/kg chlorogenic (CGA) had potential capacity alleviating colonic inflammation. Moreover, CGA can be degraded into caffeic by gut microbiota in colon. Therefore, we hypothesize CA exert protective effects on To test hypothesis, 251 was supplemented to DSS-induced colitis mice. The results showed treatment recovered disease activity index (DAI), colon length, and...

Background Idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension (IPAH) is a rare disease with high heritability. Although several predisposing genes have been linked to IPAH, the genetic aetiology remains unknown for large number of IPAH cases. Methods We conducted an exome-wide gene-based burden analysis on two independent case–control studies, including total 331 cases and 10 508 controls. Functional assessments were analyse effects mutations protein biosynthesis function. Results The gene encoding...

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) contribute to cancer initiation and progression by silencing the expression of their target genes, causing either mRNA molecule degradation or translational inhibition. Intraductal epithelial proliferations breast are histologically clinically classified into normal, atypical ductal hyperplasia (ADH), carcinoma in situ (DCIS) invasive (IDC). To better understand development, we attempt identify deregulated miRNAs this process using Formalin-Fixed, Paraffin-Embedded (FFPE)...

Pectin is a heteropolysaccharide that acts as an intestinal immunomodulator, promoting development and regulating flora in the gut. However, relevant mechanisms remain obscure. In this study, pigs were fed corn-soybean meal-based diet supplemented with either 5% microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) or pectin for 3 weeks, to investigate metabolites anti-inflammatory properties of jejunum.The results showed dietary supplementation improved integrity (Claudin-1, Occludin) inflammatory response...
