The TMTD does not change the secretory activity of the dogs' stomach with its one-time administration by mouth in doses of 0.5--10 mg/kg. With its multiple introduction (10 mg per kg once a day for a space of consecutive 30 days) the secretion of juice increases, while the pepsin content in the juice of dags diminishes. The DEDCS, EEDMDCA, TMTD and EBDCC (singly into the stomach in a dose of 1l5LD50 per kg) bring down the glycogen-forming and secretory function of the liver in rats and inhibit the propulsive activity of the intestines in mice, stimulated with 5-oxytryptophan. The mechanism of the intestinal motor activity inhibition is caused by the inhibition of oxytryptophandecarboxylase (CP 4.1.1.28) in the intestines of the animals with the DTCA derivatives.

Metabolic syndrome is, in humans, associated with alterations in the composition and localization of the intestinal microbiota, including encroachment of bacteria within the colon's inner mucus layer. Possible promoters of these events include dietary emulsifiers, such as carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) and polysorbate-80 (P80), which, in mice, result in altered microbiota composition, encroachment, low-grade inflammation and metabolic syndrome. While assessments of gut microbiota composition have largely focused on fecal/luminal samples, we hypothesize an outsized role for changes in mucus microbiota in driving low-grade inflammation and its consequences.

The hypothalamus plays a central role in regulating energy expenditure and maintaining energy homeostasis, crucial for an organism's survival. Located in the ventral diencephalon, it is a dynamic and adaptable brain region capable of rapid responses to environmental changes, exhibiting high anatomical and cellular plasticity and integrates a myriad of sensory information, internal physiological cues, and humoral factors to accurately interpret the nutritional state and adjust food intake, thermogenesis, and energy homeostasis. Key hypothalamic nuclei contain distinct neuron populations that respond to hormonal, nutrient, and neural inputs and communicate extensively with peripheral organs like the gastrointestinal tract, liver, pancreas, and adipose tissues to regulate energy production, storage, mobilization, and utilization.

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive disease that requires effective staging management. The role of intestinal microbiota in PD has been studied, but its changes at different stages are not clear. In this study, meta- analysis, bioinformatics analysis and in vivo simulation were used to explore the intestinal microbiota distribution of PD patients and models at different stages.

Background: Nippostrongylus brasiliensis-a nematode of rodents-is commonly used as a model to study the immunobiology of parasitic nematodes. It is a member of the Strongylida-a large order of socioeconomically important parasitic nematodes of animals. Lipids are known to play essential roles in nematode biology, influencing cellular membranes, energy storage and/or signalling.

To investigate the clinicopathological features, diagnosis, genetic alterations, and biological behaviors of hamartomatous inverted hyperplastic polyp (HIHP) in the gastrointestinal tract. The clinical, sonographic, endoscopic and pathologic data of 10 HIHP cases diagnosed at the First Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Medical University, Xi'an, China from January 2013 to March 2024 were collected. Their clinicopathological features and histological morphology were analyzed.
