Proteome profiling, biochemical and histological analysis of diclofenac-induced liver toxicity in Yersinia enterocolitica and Lactobacillus fermentum fed rat model: a comparative analysis.

Diclofenac is a hepatotoxic non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that affects liver histology and its protein expression levels. Here, we studied the effect of diclofenac on rat liver when co-administrated with either Yersinia enterocolitica strain 8081 serotype O:8 biovar 1B (D*Y) or Lactobacillus fermentum strain 9338 (D*L). Spectroscopic analysis of stool samples showed biotransformation of diclofenac.

Bridging the Evidence and Practice Gap in Chronic Kidney Disease: A System Thinking Approach to Population Health.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is common, costly, and life-limiting, requiring dialysis and transplantation in advanced stages. Although effective guideline-based therapy exists, the asymptomatic nature of CKD together with low health literacy, adverse social determinants of health, unmet behavioral health needs, and primary care providers' (PCP) limited understanding of CKD result in defects in screening and diagnosis. Care is fragmented between PCPs and specialty nephrologists, with limited time, expertise, and resources to address systemic gaps.

Chronic kidney disease associated cardiomyopathy: recent advances and future perspectives.

Purpose Of Review: Cardiomyopathy in chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a complex condition with multiple triggers and poor prognosis. This review provides an overview of recent advances in CKD-associated cardiomyopathy, with a focus on pathophysiology, newly discovered biomarkers and potential therapeutic targets.

Recent Findings: CKD is associated with a specific pattern of myocardial hypertrophy and fibrosis, resulting in diastolic and systolic dysfunction, and often triggered by nonatherosclerotic processes.

Culturing the unculturables: strategies, challenges, and opportunities for gut microbiome study.

Metagenome sequencing techniques revolutionized the field of gut microbiome study. However, it is equipped with experimental and computational biases, which affect the downstream analysis results. Also, live microbial strains are needed for a better understanding of host-microbial crosstalks and for designing next-generation treatment therapies based on probiotic strains and postbiotic molecules.

Lepidopteran insects: emerging model organisms to study infection by enteropathogens.

The in vivo analysis of a pathogen is a critical step in gaining greater knowledge of pathogen biology and host-pathogen interactions. In the last two decades, there has been a notable rise in the number of studies on developing insects as a model for studying pathogens, which provides various benefits, such as ethical acceptability, relatively short life cycle, and cost-effective care and maintenance relative to routinely used rodent infection models. Furthermore, lepidopteran insects provide many advantages, such as easy handling and tissue extraction due to their large size relative to other invertebrate models, like Caenorhabditis elegans.

Proteomic, biochemical, histopathological, and elevated plus maze analysis reveals the gut damaging role of ketoprofen with Yersinia enterocolitica and altered behavior in Wistar rats.

The long-term use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) is known to damage the intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) that play numerous important roles, including nutrient absorption and barrier protection. In the current study, we determined the effect of ketoprofen on the rat gut when administered with Yersinia enterocolitica. On performing the label-free quantitation of the rat gut proteins, the expression of 494 proteins out of 1628 proteins was altered, which has a profound effect on NF-kB signaling pathway, immune system, dysbiosis, and gut injury.

Balancing reactive oxygen species generation by rebooting gut microbiota.

Reactive oxygen species (ROS; free radical form O , superoxide radical; OH , hydroxyl radical; ROO , peroxyl; RO , alkoxyl and non-radical form O , singlet oxygen; H O , hydrogen peroxide) are inevitable companions of aerobic life with crucial role in gut health. But, overwhelming production of ROS can cause serious damage to biomolecules. In this review, we have discussed several sources of ROS production that can be beneficial or dangerous to the human gut.

Yersinia enterocolitica and Lactobacillus fermentum induces differential cellular and behavioral responses during diclofenac biotransformation in rat gut.

Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) can induce small-intestinal injuries through inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis. Gut has an important role in building and maintaining the barriers to avoid the luminal gut microbiota from invading the host, and cytoskeleton plays a crucial role in the maintenance of cellular barrier. The recent advances suggest a bi-directional interaction between the drugs and gut microbiota, where gut microbes can metabolize the drugs, and in response drugs can alter the composition of gut microbiota.

Infected insect gut reveals differentially expressed proteins for cellular redox, metal resistance and secretion system in Yersinia enterocolitica-Helicoverpa armigera pathogenic model.

Objective: Mouse infection models are frequently used to study the host-pathogen interaction studies. However, due to several constraints, there is an urgent need for a simple, rapid, easy to handle, inexpensive, and ethically acceptable in vivo model system for studying the virulence of enteropathogens. Thus, the present study was performed to develop the larvae of Helicoverpa armigera as a rapid-inexpensive in vivo model system to evaluate the effect of Yersinia enterocolitica strain 8081 on its midgut via a label-free proteomic approach.

Inflammatory bowel disease: tri-directional relationship between microbiota, immune system and intestinal epithelium.

Human gut microbiota contributes to host nutrition and metabolism, sustains intestinal cell proliferation and differentiation, and modulates host immune system. The alterations in their composition lead to severe gut disorders, including inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) or inflammatory bowel syndrome (IBS). IBD including ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD) are gamut of chronic inflammatory disorders of gut, mediated by complex interrelations among genetic, environmental, and internal factors.

Bioevaluation and molecular docking analysis of novel phenylpropanoid derivatives as potent food preservative and anti-microbials.

Unlabelled: Novel derivatives were synthesized using natural scaffold, like phenylpropanoids C-C backbone to reduce unfavorable browning of food due to tyrosinase and oxidative spoilage. Most of the compounds displayed mushroom tyrosinase inhibition better than kojic acid. Compound CE48 exhibited better anti-tyrosinase (IC-29.

Stabilization-destabilization and redox properties of laccases from medicinal mushroom Ganoderma lucidum and human pathogen Yersinia enterocolitica.

Immunological co-ordination between gut and lungs in SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has evolved into a major pandemic called coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) that has created unprecedented global health emergencies, and emerged as a serious threat due to its strong ability for human-to-human transmission. The reports indicate the ability of SARS-CoV-2 to affect almost any organ due to the presence of a receptor known as angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) across the body. ACE2 receptor is majorly expressed in the brush border of gut enterocytes along with the ciliated cells and alveolar epithelial type II cells in the lungs.

Proteomic analysis reveals the damaging role of low redox laccase from Yersinia enterocolitica strain 8081 in the midgut of Helicoverpa armigera.

Objective: Earlier, we have found that the enteropathogenic Yersinia enterocolitica have evolved the survival mechanisms that regulate the expression of laccase-encoding genes in the gut. The present study aims to characterize the purified recombinant laccase from Y. enterocolitica strain 8081 biovar 1B and understand its effect on the midgut of cotton bollworm, Helicoverpa armigera (Hübner) larvae.
