Fiber for use in the treatment of inflammation of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract of a companion animal, in which the inflammation treatment comprises administering a composition comprising fiber orally to the
When it comes to gut inflammation, gluten is often a common culprit. According to a 2016 study published inTissue Barrier,gluten triggers the release of zonulin, which is a protein that causes the breakdown of tight protein junctions between intestinal epithelial cells(6). This can result in g...
In this article, you will learn what inflammation is, what the difference between acute and chronic inflammation is and what its causes and consequences are. I will also share some powerful strategies on how to lower inflammation and reduce the risk of disease with herbs instead of non-steroidal...
ranging from cytokine inhibitors/agonists, inflammasome inhibitors, some inhibitors that have already been or are expected to be applied in clinical practice, as well as recent discoveries of the anti-tumor effect of non-steroidal
Tight junctions are critical for the homeostatic maintenance of epithelial barrier integrity, especially in the gastrointestinal tract. In addition, tight junction proteins serve as intermediary molecules in a variety of signaling pathways in both health and disease. Dysregulation of tight junction proteins...
In particular, we span the spectrum from basic research to translational findings, including a review of current and potential immune-modulatory therapeutic options for metabolic disease aimed to treat disease progression and complications. Inflammation in obesity and the pathogenesis of T2D The potential...
However, little is known about the molecular mechanism or mechanisms by which the immune system orchestrates the production of these proinflammatory factors during gut inflammation and CRC. Thus, pharmacological regulation of inflammation to prevent and/or improve CRC treatment is nonspecific and ...
UC is limited to the colon and rectum and affects only the mucosal layer, whereas Crohn's disease can affect any part of the GI tract and involves deeper layers of the bowel wall. How is UC different from Crohn’s disease? A CBC helps detect inflammation by measuring white blood ...
As researchers strive to elucidate the role of inflammation in nutrition, the interest in potential anti-inflammatory properties of nutrition also grows. We aim to provide an overview of the influence of nutrition on inflammation through a discussion of dietary patterns such as the Mediterranean diet...
The human central nervous system is convolutedly connected to the gut microbiome, a diverse community of microorganisms residing in the gastrointestinal tract. Recent research has highlighted the bidirectional communication between the gut microbiome and neuroglial cells, which include astrocytes, microglia...
