We describe a case of miliary tuberculosis induced by Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) as a complication of an infection after BCG-instillation therapy into the bladder because of bladder carcinoma. Bacilli surely entered blood circulation via an urethral lesion because of a difficult catheterisation. The 60 year old patient was administered to the hospital with septic temperature 4 four days after BCG instillation. CT showed a miliary patten and the diagnosis was confirmed by bronchoscopy: transbronchial biopsy showed granulomatous infiltration and an acid-fast rod-bacterium was detected in bronchial slime. Symptoms vanished after a consequent antituberculous triple therapy regime and the patient left hospital in a good general state of health.

Purpose: Gut microbiota dysbiosis significantly impacts ulcerative colitis (UC) progression and exacerbation. Probiotics show promise in UC management. This study evaluated the effects of different doses of LV149, an aquatic-derived probiotic, on gut injury repair in male C57BL/6 mice with dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced ulcerative colitis (UC) and investigated the underlying mechanisms.

Unlabelled: The SpoVAF/FigP complex, a newly identified dormant spore ion channel, has been shown to amplify the response of germinant receptors (GRs) to nutrient germinants. However, its contribution to high-pressure-induced germination remains unexplored. In this study, we discovered that the 5AF/FigP complex played an important role in the GR-dependent germination of spores under moderate high pressure (MHP) by facilitating the release of ions, such as potassium (K), a mechanism in parallel with its role in nutrient-induced germination.

Zymdetox Z-2000 is a novel zearalenone (ZEN) lactonase produced by Bacillus subtilis that can biodegrade ZEN to hydrolyzed ZEN and decarboxylated hydrolyzed ZEN with much lower estrogenic activity. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of Zymdetox Z-2000 in mitigating the adverse effects of ZEN on the growth performance and reproductive health of gilts. A total of 80 crossbred Landrace × Yorkshire gilts (9.
