The present study investigated the immunomodulatory activity and associated mechanisms of heat-treated Lactobacillus plantarum LM1004 (HT-LM1004) in a cyclophosphamide (CTX)-induced mouse model immunosuppression. HT-LM1004 induced phagocytic nitric oxide production RAW264.7 macrophages stimulated release tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interferon (IFN)-γ, interleukin (IL)-2, IL-12p70. In mice with CTX-induced immunosuppression, oral administration restored thymus spleen indices, including...
This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of Rhus succedanea extract addition on in vitro ruminal fermentation and microbial growth. Two ruminally-fistulated steers consuming 600 g/kg timothy- 400 cracked corn-based concentrate with free access water mineral block were used as rumen fluid donors. In batch fermentation, timothy a substrate, for up 72 h, extracts added achieve final concentrations 0, 10, 30, 50, 70, 90 mg/L. Effective dry matter (DM) degradability rate linearly...
This study was aimed to evaluate the in vitro effects of medicinal herb extracts (MHEs) on ruminal fermentation characteristics and inhibition protozoa reduce methane production rumen. A fistulated Hanwoo used as a donor rumen fluid. The MHEs (T1, Veratrum patulum; T2, Iris ensata var. spontanea; T3, Arisaema ringens; T4, Carduus crispus; T5, Pueraria thunbergiana) were added bottles containing fluid medium. Total volatile fatty acid (tVFA), total gas production, profiles, microbe...
The primary aim of this study was to reveal the effects end-effector robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) on motor function, proprioception, balance, and ability in patients with incomplete spinal cord injury (SCI). secondary determine correlation between clinical outcomes. This a prospective multi-center study. A total 13 SCI who met inclusion criteria received 30 min RAGT Morning Walk® (Curexo, Seoul, South Korea), 1 h conventional physiotherapy 5 times per week for 4 weeks. Clinical...
Methane plays a major role in greenhouse gas emissions contributing to climate change. Therefore, reducing methane production by ruminants is primary goal but significant challenge. In this study, five oriental medicine plant extracts (OMPEs), Hypericum ascyron L. (HYA), Rhododendron mucronulatum (RHM), Zizyphus jujube var. inermis (ZIJ), Vitis vinifera (VIV), and Rhus succedanea (RHS), with different polyphenol flavonoid contents were evaluated for their effects on vitro ruminal...
