Filtered Kombucha tea ameliorates the leaky gut syndrome in young and old mice model of colitis
Objective(s): Zonula occludens proteins (ZO-1 and ZO-2) are important intracellular tight junction (TJ)-associated proteins that link the cell cytoskeleton to the trans-membrane TJ proteins. Destruction of TJ proteins is called the “leaky gut syndrome” and has been observed in some of the gastrointestinal diseases such as the inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). So, ther...
متن کاملNiacin Ameliorates Lipid Disturbances due to Glucocorticoid Administration in Rats
Objective(s) This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of niacin on glucocorticoid-induced dyslipidemia and fatty liver in rats. Materials and Methods Twenty four adult male rats were divided randomly into four equal groups: 1- normal saline (control), 2- dexamathasone 0.125 mg/kg/day, i.m., 3- dexamathasone + niacin 200 mg/kg/day, oral gavages, 4- niacin. After 2 weeks, serum total c...
متن کاملPreventing gut leakiness by oats supplementation ameliorates alcohol-induced liver damage in rats.
Only 30% of alcoholics develop liver disease (ALD) suggesting that additional factors are needed. Endotoxin is one such factor, but its etiology is unclear. Since the gut is the main source of endotoxin, we sought to determine whether an increase in intestinal permeability (leaky gut) is required for alcohol-induced endotoxemia and liver injury and whether the gut leakiness is preventable. For ...
متن کاملZinc supplementation tightens "leaky gut" in Crohn's disease.
OBJECTIVES Small intestinal permeability is often increased in patients with Crohn's disease and may be pathogenic for clinical relapses. No effective prophylactic treatment is available for these patients. The aim of this study was to ascertain whether zinc supplementation may improve intestinal permeability. METHODS We studied 12 patients with quiescent Crohn's disease who had been in remis...
متن کاملCentral action of adrenomedullin to prevent ethanolinduced gastric injury through vagal pathways in rats.
Adrenomedullin (AM), belongs to the calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) family and interacts with AM and CGRP1 receptors. Specific AM receptors and immunoreactivity are present in the rat brain. The effect of intracisternal injection of rat AM on ethanol-induced gastric lesions was studied in conscious Wistar rats. The peptide was injected intracisternally or intravenously under short anesth...
