Japanese quail () is a popular experimental animal model in scientific research. The present study investigated the effects of dietary multiple enzyme supplementation on growth performance, carcass characteristics, nutrient digestibility and small intestinal histomorphology in quails fed diets based on wheat and soya bean meal. A total number of 192 1-day-old quails were assigned to three treatments with 16 replicates in each and four quails replicate for 38 days.

Background: Small-bowel angioectasia is commonly diagnosed and managed using double-balloon enteroscopy; however, rebleeding rates can vary significantly. This study aimed to identify and evaluate the clinical predictors of rebleeding in patients with small-bowel angioectasia.
Methods: This retrospective study focused on adult patients who underwent endoscopic management for small bowel vascular lesions (SBVLs).

Background And Aims: Refractory celiac disease type II (RCDII) is characterized by a clonally expanded aberrant cell population in the small intestine. The role of other tissue-resident immune subsets in RCDII is unknown. Here, we characterized CD8 and CD4 T cells in RCDII duodenum at the single-cell level and .

Prostaglandin E receptor type 4 (EP4) agonists have been shown to be effective in treating experimental ulcerative colitis (UC) in animals and in human clinical trials, but their development has been impeded by unacceptable systemic side effects. In this study, a series of methylene phosphate prodrugs of a highly potent and selective prostaglandin EP4 receptor agonist were designed to target and remain localized in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract after either oral or rectal instillation. The prodrugs were designed to be converted to liberate active EP4 agonist by intestinal alkaline phosphate (IAP), a ubiquitous enzyme found at the luminal of the intestinal wall thus exposing the colon epithelial barrier while reducing systemic exposure to the active agonist.

Background: Ration composition may significantly impact the nutrient absorption, duodenal parameters, intestinal health and feed efficiency of animals.
Objectives: The objective of this study was to analyse the impact of concentrate- and forage-based diets on essential morphological parameters of the duodenum, including villus height, villus width, crypt depth and goblet cell density, in three different lamb breeds.
Methods: Forty-five lambs, aged between 2.
