The hormonal mechanism of intestinal adaptation
The gastrointestinal tract has a large functional reserve. This is particularly true of the small intestine, and early studies by Flint in 1912, showed that dogs could withstand 50%-70% small intestinal resection, returning to normal health after an initial period of weight loss and malabsorption. …

Intestinal Adaptation to Repeated Exposure of Flavonoid-rich Foods: In Vitro and Clinical Data
<p>Interest in application of flavonoids for chronic disease prevention has grown significantly, but the low oral bioavailability of these compounds from acute doses is commonly highlighted as a limitation when considering their biological significance. Still, the impact of broad dietary patterns …

Pre-, pro-, and synbiotic modulation of the intestinal microbiota stimulates enteroendocrine mediated intestinal adaptation in piglets with short-bowel syndrome
… an ill-defined etiology that is associated with intestinal microbial dysbiosis, defined by altered intestinal microbiota, decreased bacterial diversity, and antibiotic use. SBS is associated with an enteroendocrine cascade beginning with intestinal secretion of glucagon-like peptide-2 (GLP-2), an …

Soy Protein Consumption in Diabetic Nephropathy and Coronary Heart Disease
… progression of DN, without adversely affecting intestinal adaptation. Soy protein consumption was also shown to positively affect risk factors of CHD in type 2 diabetic patients. Thus, the consumption of soy protein products may constitute an important dietary modification for type 2 diabetic …

Short-Chain Fatty Acids and Functional Adaptations in the Neonatal Intestine
Intestinal adaptation following massive loss of absorptive surface area is an important process that results in enhanced intestinal function to compensate for reduced absorptive capacity. Short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) are known to enhance this adaptive process in adult animal models, and data from …

Thyroid in intestinal development during atlantic salmon smoltification
… present PhD thesis gives a novel insight into intestinal morphology, intestinal SW acquisition, and involvement of TH in intestinal development during the freshwater (FW) and the development of competence for the SW phase. Here we used a winter signal (Photoperiod manipulation) and functional …

Influences of milk intake and dietary inclusion of a bioactive extract from the olive (Olea europaea) on glucagon-like peptide-2 and its effects on growth and intestinal health of dairy calves
Promotion of intestinal health in preruminant dairy calves is essential for growth and overall health. Yet, a large proportion of dairy calves in the United States is affected by enteric challenges in the preweaning period. Maintenance of intestinal integrity is associated with an intestinal …
