Background and aims: Elevation of conjugated primary bile acid—GCA in fecal samples was reported in IBD patients compared to healthy controls (nearly 10-fold), as well as in active ulcerative colitis (UC) patients relative to those in remission stages. Therefore we wanted to investigate the poten...
Cecal contents metabolomics analysis of DSS-induced colitis mice and DSS-induced colitis mice with V. parvula colonization.
Background: Bupleurum chinense DC polysaccharide (BCP) demonstrates a significant role in ameliorating gastric ulceration and enhancing intestinal barrier function, and have broad medicinal value. Nevertheless, the therapeutic effects and mechanisms in ulcerative colitis (UC) remain to be elucida...
Background: Unlike the reported CA, the abundance of fecal GCA did not significantly increase after DSS treatment in C57BL/6J mice. Hence, exogenous supplementation of GCA were given to DSS-induced colitis mice via oral gavage. We want to know whether GCA treatment at 200 mg/kg yielded fecal GCA ...
