Investigating the molecular mechanisms of the interactions between Lactobacillus reuteri strains and intestinal mucus
Mucus is the first point of contact between the gut microbiota and the host. Here we used the gut symbiont Lactobacillus reuteri to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying the interactions between gut bacteria and mucus. Firstly, the mucus binding ability of a collection of L. reuteri …

Inflammasomes in the Intestinal Epithelium
… inflammasomes are critical for controlling intestinal pathogens and regulating epithelial-mucosal homeostasis, little is known about how they function in this cellular compartment. Moreover, very few studies focus specifically on inflammasomes in human cells, and this has implications for …

The role of mucus in the cross talk between gut bacteria and the host
Abstract The mammalian gastrointestinal tract is home to a complex microbial community engaged in a dynamic interaction with the immune system. Mucus is the first point of contact of the microbiota with the host, acting as a first line of defence. Furthermore γδ intraepithelial lymphocytes (IELs) …

Preparation, Characterization and In Vitro Evaluation of Metformin Loaded Hyaluronic Acid Nanoparticles for Oral Delivery
… oral bioavailability (50-60%) due to its poor intestinal absorption. Orally administered mucoadhesive nanoparticles have been shown to interact with the intestinal mucus layer and increase the intestinal permeability of the entrapped drug. The objective of the present study was to develop and …

Expression Of Gal/galnac Lectin Of Entamoeba Histolytica In Transgenic Chloroplasts To Develop A Vaccine For Amebiasis
Amebiasis, also defined as invasive intestinal and extra intestinal amebiasis, is caused by Entameoba histolytica, an invasive protozoan parasite. World Health Organization (WHO) has reported that approximately 50 million people are infected each year causing an estimated 40 to 100 thousand deaths …
