Endoscopic bariatric therapies can provide treatment options for obesity in non-surgical candidates, as a part of combination or serial treatment plans, and for the reduction of obesity-related comorbidities. Several complications of intragastric balloons have been documented, but spontaneous hyperinflation is a risk that has not been well reported previously. We describe two cases of spontaneous intragastric balloon hyperinflation and their outcomes.

Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is a chronic liver disease characterized by hepatic lipid accumulation, and echinacoside (ECH) has demonstrated antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects across multiple conditions, it has demonstrated hepatoprotective effects. Ferroptosis represents a novel mechanism of cell demise, differing from apoptosis and autophagy. Emerging research indicates that ferroptosis in hepatocytes plays a role in the development of alcoholic liver disease.

Gut dysbiosis serves as an underlying risk factor for the development of hypertension. The resolution of this dysbiosis has emerged as a promising strategy in improving hypertension. Food-derived bioactive protein peptides have become increasingly more attractive in ameliorating hypertension, primarily due to their anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant activities.

Background: Defects in SLC26A3, the major colonic Cl-/HCO3- exchanger, result in chloride-rich diarrhea, a reduction in short-chain fatty acid (SCFA)-producing bacteria, and a high incidence of inflammatory bowel disease in humans and in mice. Slc26a3-/- mice are, therefore, an interesting animal model for spontaneous but mild colonic inflammation and for testing strategies to reverse or prevent the inflammation. This study investigates the effect of Escherichia coli Nissle (EcN) application on the microbiome, SCFA production, barrier integrity, and mucosal inflammation in slc26a3-/- mice.

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the enzyme activity of soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) and quantify its metabolic substrates, namely epoxygenated fatty acids (EpFAs), and products of sEH in the hippocampus after administering TPPU [1-trifluoromethoxyphenyl-3-(1-propionylpiperidin-4-yl)urea], an inhibitor of sEH. Furthermore, it explored whether the extracellular signal-activated protein kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) is involved in the anti-seizure effects of TPPU in the lithium chloride (LiCl)-pilocarpine induced post-status epilepticus (SE) rat model.
Methods: The rats were intraperitoneally (I.
Voluntary wheel running exercise rescues behaviorally-evoked acetylcholine efflux in the medial prefrontal cortex and epigenetic changes in ChAT genes following adolescent intermittent ethanol exposure.

Adolescent intermittent ethanol (AIE) exposure, which models heavy binge ethanol intake in adolescence, leads to a variety of deficits that persist into adulthood-including suppression of the cholinergic neuron phenotype within the basal forebrain. This is accompanied by a reduction in acetylcholine (ACh) tone in the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC). Voluntary wheel running exercise (VEx) has been shown to rescue AIE-induced suppression of the cholinergic phenotype.
