Obesity-associated deficits in inhibitory control are phenocopied to mice through gut microbiota changes in one-carbon and aromatic amino acids metabolic pathways

Xavier Fernandez-Real Girona

Background Inhibitory control (IC) is critical to keep long-term goals in everyday life. Bidirectional relationships between IC deficits and obesity are behind unhealthy eating and physical exercise habits. Methods We studied gut microbiome composition and ...

Micellization behavior of bile salt with pluronic (F-127) and synthesis of silver nanoparticles in a mixed system

Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin

The sequestrant is a substance used to cure bile salt diarrhea. They bind to bile salts by hydrophobic and electrostatic forces to stop them from contact with colon mucosa. The block copolymer could be used as bile salt binding agents. Herein, the physicoc ...

Intestinal steroidogenesis controls PPAR expression in the colon and is impaired during ulcerative colitis

Johan Auwerx

Background and aims Immune tolerance breakdown during UC involves the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor- (PPAR), a key factor in mucosal homoeostasis and the therapeutic target of 5-aminosalycilates, which expression is impaired during UC. Here we ...

The Receptor TGR5 Mediates the Prokinetic Actions of Intestinal Bile Acids and Is Required for Normal Defecation in Mice

Kristina Schoonjans

BACKGROUND & AIMS: Abnormal delivery of bile acids (BAs) to the colon as a result of disease or therapy causes constipation or diarrhea by unknown mechanisms. The G protein-coupled BA receptor TGR5 (or GPBAR1) is expressed by enteric neurons and endocrine ...

Direct electric stimulation using a battery-operated device for induction and modulation of colonic contractions in pigs

Jean-Marc Vesin, Vincent Schlageter, Pavel Kucera, Mattia Bertschi

Direct electrical stimulation of the colon offers a promising approach for the induction of propulsive colonic contractions by using an implantable device. The objective of this study was to assess the feasibility to induce colonic contractions using a com ...

Automated characterization of dextran/concanavalin A mixtures-A study of sensitivity and temperature dependence at low viscosity as basis for an implantable glucose sensor

Peter Ryser, Eric Meurville

Mixtures of aqueous solutions of dextran and concanavalin A have a potential use as glucose sensing substances. We investigate these mixtures at low viscosities which are especially advantageous for miniature mechanical glucose sensing devices. The glucose ...
