Background: Our earlier research showed that Bactrian camels have a unique lymph aggregation structure that is similar to ileal Peyer's patches (PPs) and plays a role in the mucosal immunology of the digestive tract. However, Bactrian camels exhibit PPs not only in the ileum but also in all segme...

Significant progress has been recently achieved in generating in vitro human small intestine models. Nonetheless, there remains ample opportunity for enhancement, both in terms of structure and function, within the current model. In this study, our objective is to construct a multilayered small inte...

The gut microbiota is essential to host health. Probiotics can be used as a microbiota targeted therapy to improve host health. However, probiotic molecular mechanisms of action and probiotics targeting the small intestinal microbiota are often not elucidated. In this study, we construct a three ...

Human intervention study with two doses of iron (as ferrous gluconate via intestinal perfusion) to study the effect on genome-wide gene expression in the small intestine, in order to obtain detailed information about intestinal transcriptomics in vivo.

There is increasing appreciation for sexually dimorphic effects, but the molecular mechanisms underlying these effects are only partially understood. In the present study, we explored transcriptomics and epigenetic differences in the small intestine and colon of prepubescent male and female mice. In...

Feline chronic enteropathy (CE) is a common gastrointestinal disorder in cats and mainly comprises inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and small cell lymphoma (SCL). Differentiation between IBD and SCL can be diagnostically challenging. We characterized the fecal metabolome of 14 healthy cats and 22 ca...

By regulating digestion and absorption of nutrients and providing a barrier against the external environment the intestine provides a crucial contribution to the maintenance of health. To what extent aging-related changes in the intestinal system contribute to the impaired health of the aging body i...

Obesity and insulin resistance are two major risk factors underlying the metabolic syndrome. To gain more insight in the role of the small intestine in the etiology of these metabolic disorders, a microarray study was performed on small intestines (SI) of C57BL/6J mice that were fed a high fat diet ...

The NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase (CPR) is essential for the functioning of microsomal cytochrome P450 (P450) monoxygenases. The biological functions of the CPR-dependent enzymes in the intestine are not known, despite the vast knowledge available on the biochemical properties of the various oxyge...

Background; The gut is a major energy consumer, but a comprehensive overview of the adaptive response to fasting is lacking. Gene-expression profiling, pathway analysis, and immunohistochemistry were therefore carried out on mouse small intestine after 0, 12, 24, and 72 hours of fasting. Results; In...
