Segmental ischemic colitis is an uncommon disease in young patients, being usually associated to drug abuse, infectious or autoimmune diseases. We present a case that, in spite of a complete diagnostic study, had repeatedly two attacks of intestinal necrosis during his admission.

While fructose is a key dietary component, concerns have been raised about its potential risks to the liver. This study aimed to assess quercetin's protective effects against fructose-induced mouse hepatic steatosis. Thirty-two male C57BL/6J mice were randomly allocated into four groups: control, high fructose diet (HFrD), HFrD supplemented with low-dose quercetin (HFrD+LQ), and HFrD supplemented with high-dose quercetin (HFrD+HQ).

Objective: The aim of this study is to investigate the protective effect of Cannabidiol (CBD) on DSS-induced colitis in C57BL/6 mice and its related pathways.
Methods: A mouse model of ulcerative colitis (US) was induced by DSS. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), quantitative reverse transcription polymerase-chain reaction (qRT-PCR), Western blot (WB) and immunofluorescence (IF) were used to identify the key factors involved in inflammatory response, oxidative stress and intestinal fibrosis.

Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is an intestinal inflammatory and necrotic disease seen in premature infants, and remains the leading cause of death resulted from gastrointestinal diseases in premature infants. The specific pathogenesis of NEC is still unclear. In recent years, a lot of studies have reported that Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) plays a key role in the pathogenesis of NEC.

Article Synopsis
- COVID-19, caused by SARS-CoV-2, poses serious global health risks, including the potential for secondary liver injury related to metabolic enzyme changes.
- This study explores how prior infection with SARS-CoV-2 affects alcohol-induced liver damage, using transgenic mice that express human ACE2.
- Results showed that infected mice experienced worsened liver injury after alcohol consumption, with alterations in metabolic enzymes and increased levels of a toxic alcohol byproduct, indicating a complex interaction between COVID-19 and alcohol effects on the liver.

Background: Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic intestinal disease of growing global concern. Bacteria associated with fermented food or probiotics regulate immune and inflammatory responses, playing a key role in intestinal immune homeostasis.
Results: Five probiotics with relatively good antioxidant effects, namely H6, QC9, E7, D1, and Q13, were screened out from 30 strains of probiotics through in vitro antioxidant assays.
