The role of the intestinal microbiota in uremic solute accumulation : a focus on sulfur compounds
The gut microbiota is considered to be a novel important factor to take into account in the pathogenesis of chronic kidney disease and uremia. Much attention has been paid to specific uremic retention solutes of microbial origin, such as indoxyl sulfate, p-cresyl sulfate, and trimethylamine-N-oxide. However, other novel less well studied compounds,...
Surgical Management of Lung Cancer: History, Evolution, and Modern Advances
Published in Current Oncology Reports
Purpose of ReviewAlthough surgery for lung cancer was not common before the early twentieth century, it has enjoyed remarkable progress since then both in type of resection and technical approach. This has been coupled with significant technological advances. Here, we will review the history and evolution of this relatively new field of surgery.Rec...
A prospective cohort study of adolescents' memory performance and individual brain dose of microwave radiation from wire...
BACKGROUND: The potential impact of microwave radiofrequency electromagnetic fields (RF-EMF) emitted by wireless communication devices on neurocognitive functions of adolescents is controversial. In a previous analysis, we found changes in figural memory scores associated with a higher cumulative RF-EMF brain dose in adolescents. OBJECTIVE: We aime...
Allogeneic mesenchymal stem cells improve the wound healing process of sheep skin
...
Background: Skin wound healing includes a system of biological processes, collectively restoring the integrity of the skin after injury. Healing by second intention refers to repair of large and deep wounds where the tissue edges cannot be approximated and substantial scarring is often observed. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effec...
Unravelling the GSK3β-related genotypic interaction network influencing hippocampal volume in recurrent major depressive...
...
Objective Glycogen synthase kinase 3β (GSK3β) has been implicated in mood disorders. We previously reported associations between a GSK3β polymorphism and hippocampal volume in major depressive disorder (MDD). We then reported similar associations for a subset of GSK3β-regulated genes. We now investigate a comprehensive list of genes encoding protei...

Comparative toxicokinetics and plasma protein binding of ochratoxin A in four avian species
Ochratoxin A (OTA, 0.25 mg/kg body weight) was absorbed rapidly (T-max = 0.31-1.88 h) in all avian species (broiler chickens, laying hens, turkeys, and Muscovy ducks) but more slowly in broiler chickens (T-max = 1.43-4.63 h). The absolute oral bioavailability was complete in these bird species (88.0-109.6%). Ducks have a significantly higher volume...
Deglucosylation of zearalenone-14-glucoside in animals and human liver leads to underestimation of exposure to zearaleno...
...
Zearalenone-14-glucoside (ZEN-14G), the modified mycotoxin of zearalenone (ZEN), has attracted considerable attention due to its high potential to be hydrolyzed into ZEN, which would exert toxicity. It has been confirmed that the microflora could metabolize ZEN-14G to ZEN. However, the metabolic profile of ZEN-14G and whether it could be deglucosid...
