Characterization and multilocus sequence typing of Clostridium perfringens isolated from patients with diarrhoea and food poisoning in Tai'an region, China.

Objectives: Clostridium perfringens (C. perfringens) is a significant opportunistic pathogen. This study aims to examine the occurrence of C.

The secondary bile acid, deoxycholate accelerates intestinal adenoma-adenocarcinoma sequence in Apc (min/+) mice through enhancing Wnt signaling.

Colorectal cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer deaths. It correlates to a high fat diet, which causes an increase of the secondary bile acids including deoxycholate (DOC) in the intestine. We aimed to determine the effects of DOC on intestinal carcinogenesis in Apc (min/+) mice, a model of spontaneous intestinal adenomas.

Sporadic fundic gland polyps are not associated with proton pump inhibitors therapy but negatively correlate with Helicobacter pylori infection in China.

Background: Sporadic fundic gland polyps (FGPs) are common gastric polyps. Some studies reported that FGPs dramatically increased due to proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) use and a decreased prevalence of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection in Western countries.
