Intraperitoneal administration of butyrate prevents the severity of acetic acid colitis in rats

Malago, J. J.; Sangu, C. L. (Journal of Zhejiang University-SCIENCE B (Biomedicine & Biotechnology), 2015)

Intrarectal infusion of butyrate improves colorectal disorders including ulcerative colitis (UC). However, it is not established whether systemically administered butyrate benefits such patients. The current study aimed ...
Contribution of microbiota to the intestinal physicochemical barrier

Malago, J.J. (Beneficial Microbes, 2015)

The large number of intestinal microorganisms, which exceeds the total number of human cells by ten folds, alludes to a significant contribution to human health. This is vivid in enteric and some systemic diseases emanating ...
Contribution of microbiota to the innate and acquired gut immunity during health and disease

Malago, J. J. (Nova Science Publishers, Inc., 2015)

The large number of microbials in the intestine that overrides the total human cells by ten folds alludes to significant contribution of the microbiota to human health. This is vivid in enteric and some systemic diseases ...
