| 1 | Applicability of five models to simulate water infiltration into soil with added biochar显示文摘As a soil amendment, biochar can reduce soil bulk density, increase soil porosity, and alter soil aggregates and thus affect the infiltration. Researchers have proposed and revised several theoretical models to describe the process of soil infiltration. Although these models have been successfully used to evaluate the soil infiltration in different scenarios in agricultural fields, little effort has been devoted to assess their performances in arid and semi-arid soils after the addition of biochar. A laboratory experiment was performed to study the infiltration characteristics of two typical Loess Plateau soils at three particle sizes(2–1, 1–0.25, and <0.25 mm) and five biochar application amounts(0, 10, 50, 100, and 150 g/kg). The performance of five models(i.e., the Philip model, Kostiakov model, Mezencev model, USDA-NRCS model, and Horton model) in simulating the infiltration process was then evaluated based on the adjusted coefficient of determination and a reduced Chi-Square test. Results indicated that the Horton model best simulated the water-infiltration process in an aeolian sandy soil with added biochar. However, the Mezencev model best simulated the infiltration process in a loamy clay soil(Eum-Orthic Anthrosol). The three-parameter model, i.e., Mezencev and Horton models can better describe the relationship between cumulative infiltration and infiltration time. In conclusion, biochar reduced the soil infiltration capacity of the aeolian sandy soil and increased that of the Eum-Orthic Anthrosol. | WANG Tongtong Catherine E STEWART MA Jiangbo ZHENG Jiyong ZHANG Xingchang | 2017 | Journal of Arid Land2017,9,5: | 9 |
| 2 | Orally administered extract from Prunella vulgaris attenuates spontaneous colitis in mdr1a^(-/-) mice显示文摘AIM: To investigate the ability of a Prunella vulgaris(P. vulgaris) ethanolic extract to attenuate spontaneous typhlocolitis in mdr1a-/- mice. METHODS: Vehicle(5% ethanol) or P. vulgaris ethanolic extract(2.4 mg/d) were administered daily by oral gavage to mdr1a-/- or wild type FVBWT mice from 6 wk of age up to 20 wk of age. Clinical signs of disease were noted by monitoring weight loss. Mice experiencingweight loss in excess of 15% were removed from the study. At the time mice were removed from the study, blood and colon tissue were collected for analyses that included histological evaluation of lesions, inflammatory cytokine levels, and myeloperoxidase activity. RESULTS: Administration of P. vulgaris extracts to mdr1a-/- mice delayed onset of colitis and reduced severity of mucosal inflammation when compared to vehicle-treated mdr1a-/- mice. Oral administration of the P. vulgaris extract resulted in reduced(P < 0.05) serum levels of IL-10(4.6 ± 2 vs 19.4 ± 4), CXCL9(1319.0 ± 277 vs 3901.0 ± 858), and TNFα(9.9 ± 3 vs 14.8 ± 1) as well as reduced gene expression by more than two-fold for Ccl2, Ccl20, Cxcl1, Cxcl9, IL-1 α, Mmp10, VCAM-1, ICAM, IL-2, and TNFα in the colonic mucosa of mdr1a-/- mice compared to vehicle-treated mdr1a-/-mice. Histologically, several microscopic parameters were reduced(P < 0.05) in P. vulgaris-treated mdr1a-/-mice, as was myeloperoxidase activity in the colon(2.49 ± 0.16 vs 3.36 ± 0.06, P < 0.05). The numbers of CD4+ T cells(2031.9 ± 412.1 vs 5054.5 ± 809.5) and germinal center B cells(2749.6 ± 473.7 vs 4934.0 ± 645.9) observed in the cecal tonsils of P. vulgaris-treated mdr1a-/- were significantly reduced(P < 0.05) from vehicle-treated mdr1a-/- mice. Vehicle-treated mdr1a-/- mice were found to produce serum antibodies to antigens derived from members of the intestinal microbiota, indicative of severe colitis and a loss of adaptive tolerance to the members of the microbiota. These serum antibodies were greatly reduced or absent in P. vulgaris-treated mdr1a-/- mice. CONCLUSION: The anti-inflammatory activity of P. vulgaris ethanolic extract effectively attenuated the severity of intestinal inflammation in mdr1a-/- mice. | Kelley MK Haarberg Meghan J Wymore Brand Anne-Marie C Overstreet Catherine C Hauck Patricia A Murphy Jesse M Hostetter Amanda E Ramer-Tait Michael J Wannemuehler | 2015 | World Journal of Gastrointestinal Pharmacology and Therapeutics2015,6,4: | 8 |
| 3 | Recent trends in liver transplantation for alcoholic liver disease in the United States显示文摘AIM To examine temporal changes in the indications for liver transplantation(LT) and characteristics of patients transplanted for alcoholic liver disease(ALD).METHODS We performed a retrospective cohort analysis of trends in the indication for LT using the United Network for Organ Sharing(UNOS) database between 2002 and 2015. Patients were grouped by etiology of the liver disease and characteristics were compared using χ~2 and t-tests. Time series analysis was used identifying any year with a significant change in the number of transplants per year for ALD, and before and after eras were modeled using a general linear model. Subgroup analysis of recipients with ALD was performed by age group, gender, UNOS region and etiology(alcoholic cirrhosis, alcoholic hepatitis and hepatitis C-alcoholic cirrhosis dual listing).RESULTS Of 74216 liver transplant recipients, ALD(n = 9400, 12.7%) was the third leading indication for transplant after hepatitis C and hepatocellular carcinoma. Transplants for ALD, increased from 12.8%(553) in 2002 to 16.5%(1020) in 2015. Time series analysis indicated a significant increase in the number of transplants per year for ALD in 2013(P = 0.03). There were a stable number of transplants per year between 2002 and 2012(linear coefficient 3, 95%CI:-4.6, 11.2) an increase of 177 per year between 2013 and 2015(95%CI: 119, 234). This increase was significant for all age groups except those 71-83 years old, was observed for both genders, and was incompletely explained by a decrease in transplants for hepatitis C and ALD dual listing. All UNOS regions except region 9 saw an increase in the mean number of transplants per year when comparing eras, and this increase was significant in regions 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10 and 11.CONCLUSION There has been a dramatic increase in the number of transplants for ALD starting in 2013. | Catherine E Kling James D Perkins Robert L Carithers Dennis M Donovan Lena Sibulesky | 2017 | World Journal of Hepatology2017,9,36: | 6 |
| 4 | Oral treatment with plecanatide or dolcanatide attenuates visceral hypersensitivity via activation of guanylate cyclase-C in rat models显示文摘AIM To investigate the effects of plecanatide and dolcanatide on maintenance of paracellular permeability, integrity of tight junctions and on suppression of visceral hypersensitivity. METHODS Transport of fluorescein isothiocyanate(FITC)-dextran was measured to assess permeability across cell monolayers and rat colon tissues. Effects of plecanatide and dolcanatide on the integrity of tight junctions in Caco-2 and T84 monolayers and on the expression and localization of occludin and zonula occludens-1(ZO-1) were examined by immunofluorescence microscopy. Anti-nociceptive activity of these agonists was evaluated in trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid(TNBS)-induced inflammatory as well as in non-inflammatory partial restraint stress(PRS) rat models. Statistical significance between the treatment groups in the permeability studies were evaluated using unpaired t-tests.RESULTS Treatment of T84 and Caco-2 monolayers with lipopolysaccharide(LPS) rapidly increased permeability, which was effectively suppressed when monolayers were also treated with plecanatide or dolcanatide. Similarly, when T84 and Caco-2 monolayers were treated with LPS, cell surface localization of tight junction proteins occludin and ZO-1 was severely disrupted. When cell monolayers were treated with LPS in the presence of plecanatide or dolcanatide, occludin and ZO-1 were localized at the cell surface of adjoining cells, similar to that observed for vehicle treated cells. Treatment of cell monolayers with plecanatide or dolcanatide without LPS did not alter permeability, integrity of tight junctions and cell surface localization of either of the tight junction proteins. In rat visceral hypersensitivity models, both agonists suppressed the TNBS-induced increase in abdominal contractions in response to colorectal distension without affecting the colonic wall elasticity, and both agonists also reduced colonic hypersensitivity in the PRS model. CONCLUSION Our results suggest that activation of GC-C signaling might be involved in maintenance of barrier function, possibly through regulating normal localization of tight junction proteins. Consistent with these findings, plecanatide and dolcanatide showed potent antinociceptive activity in rat visceral hypersensitivity models. These results imply that activation of GC-C signaling may be an attractive therapeutic approach to treat functional constipation disorders and inflammatory gastrointestinal conditions. | Illona-Marie Boulete Anusha Thadi Catherine Beaufrand Viren Patwa Apoorva Joshi John A Foss E Priya Eddy Helene Eutamene Vaseem A Palejwala Vassilia Theodorou Kunwar Shailubhai | 2018 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2018,24,17: | 5 |
| 5 | 低密度脂蛋白和高密度脂蛋白相对全蛋黄溶液在猕猴精子低温冷冻中的作用显示文摘最近,住各种动物精子低温冷冻的实验中,提取于鸡蛋蛋黄中的低密度脂蛋白被视为优于全蛋黄溶液。与此同时,有研究认为蛋黄中的高密度脂蛋白可能对解冻后精子的生存产生负面影响。关于低密度脂蛋白和高密度脂蛋白在猕猴精子低温冷冻作用的研究还未有过报道。本研究在加和不加渗透型抗冻剂(甘油)两种情况下,通过与全蛋黄溶液对比的手段评价了两种脂蛋白在猕猴精子低温冷冻中的作用。此外,本研究也尝试多种能够改造精于膜与低密度脂蛋白结合体成分的添加剂对保存解冻精子活力的作用。我们的实验结果表明,低密度脂蛋白是伞蛋黄溶液在猕猴精子低温冷冻中发挥保护作用的主要成分。不管有无添加甘油,低密度脂蛋白与令蛋黄溶液在保存解冻精子活性方面作用相近,并未显现出任何优越性。通过加入胆同醇、胆固醇环糊精复合物或卵磷脂来改变精子膜与低密度脂蛋白结合体成分的方法并未改善解冻精子的存活状况;但加入甲基-β-环糊精则明显降低解冻精于的活力。高密度脂蛋白对猕猴精子低温冷冻保存不存在负面影响。对猕猴精子低温冷冻保存而言,本研究表明全蛋黄溶液相比较于稀释液中的有效成分低密度脂蛋白仍然具有优越性。 | Qiao-Xiang Dong Sarah E Rodenburg Dana Hill Catherine A VandeVoort | 2011 | Asian Journal of Andrology2011,13,3: | 4 |
| 6 | Changes in the colon microbiota and intestinal cytokine gene expression following minimal intestinal surgery显示文摘AIM: To investigate the impact of minor abdominal surgery on the caecal microbial population and on markers of gut inflammation.METHODS: Four week old piglets were randomly allocated to a no-surgery 'control' group(n = 6) or a 'transection surgery' group(n = 5).During the transection surgery procedure, a conventional midline incision of the lower abdominal wall was made and the small intestine was transected at a site 225 cm proximal to the ileocaecal valve, a 2 cm segment was removed and the intestine was re-anastomosed.Piglets received a polymeric infant formula diet throughout the study period and were sacrificed at two weeks post-surgery.Clinical outcomes including weight, stool consistency and presence of stool fat globules were monitored.High throughput DNA sequencing of colonic content was used to detect surgery-relateddisturbances in microbial composition at phylum, family and genus level.Diversity and richness estimates were calculated for the control and minor surgery groups.As disturbances in the gut microbial community are linked to inflammation we compared the gene expression of key inflammatory cytokines(TNF, IL1 B, IL18, IL12, IL8, IL6 and IL10) in ileum, terminal ileum and colon mucosal extracts obtained from control and abdominal surgery groups at two weeks post-surgery.RESULTS: Changes in the relative abundance of bacterial species at family and genus level were confined to bacterial members of the Proteobacteria and Bacteroidetes phyla.Family level compositional shifts included a reduction in the relative abundance of Enterobacteriaceae(22.95 ± 5.27 vs 2.07 ± 0.72, P < 0.01), Bacteroidaceae(2.54 ± 0.56 vs 0.86 ± 0.43, P < 0.05) and Rhodospirillaceae(0.40 ± 0.14 vs 0.00 ± 0.00, P < 0.05) following transection surgery.Similarly, at the genus level, changes associated with transection surgery were restricted to members of the Proteobacteria and Bacteroidetes phyla and included decreased relative abundance of Enterobacteriaceae(29.20 ± 6.74 vs 2.88 ± 1.08, P < 0.01), Alistipes(4.82 ± 1.73 vs 0.18 ± 0.13, P < 0.05) and Thalassospira(0.53 ± 0.19 vs 0.00 ± 0.00, P < 0.05).Surgeryassociated microbial dysbiosis was accompanied by increased gene expression of markers of inflammation.Within the ileum IL6 expression was decreased(4.46 ± 1.60 vs 0.24 ± 0.06, P < 0.05) following transection surgery.In the terminal ileum, gene expression of TNF was decreased(1.51 ± 0.13 vs 0.80 ± 0.16, P < 0.01) and IL18(1.21 ± 0.18 vs 2.13 ± 0.24, P < 0.01), IL12(1.04 ± 0.16 vs 1.82 ± 0.32, P < 0.05) and IL10(1.04 ± 0.06 vs 1.43 ± 0.09, P < 0.01) gene expression increased following transection surgery.Within the colon, IL12(0.72 ± 0.13 vs 1.78 ± 0.28, P < 0.01) and IL10(0.98 ± 0.02 vs 1.95 ± 0.14, P < 0.01) gene expression were increased following transection surgery.CONCLUSION: This study suggests that minor abdominal surgery in infants, results in long-term alteration of the colonic microbial composition and persistent gastrointestinal inflammation. | Susan Lapthorne Julie E Bines Fiona Fouhy Nicole L Dellios Guineva Wilson Sarah L Thomas Michelle Scurr Catherine Stanton Paul D Cotter Prue M Pereira-Fantini | 2015 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2015,21,14: | 3 |
