Icariin Metabolism by Human Intestinal Microflora.
Icariin is a major bioactive compound of Epimedii Herba, a traditional oriental medicine exhibiting anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory and anti-osteoporosis activities. Recently, the estrogenic activities of icariin drew significant attention, but the published scientific data seemed not to be so consistent. To provide fundamental information for the study of the icaritin metabolism, the biotransfo...
متن کاملMetabolism of 6-nitrochrysene by intestinal microflora.
Since bacterial nitroreduction may play a critical role in the activation of nitropolycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, we have used batch and semicontinuous culture systems to determine the ability of intestinal microflora to metabolize the carcinogen 6-nitrochrysene (6-NC). 6-NC was metabolized by the intestinal microflora present in the semicontinuous culture system to 6-aminochrysene (6-AC), N-...
متن کاملAlterations in human intestinal microflora
Large quantities of fluid administered through an intestinal tube caused alterations in small bowel bacteriology in four of seven subjects. In two normal individuals, colonic bacteria were found after fluid infusion in areas of the small bowel which previously had none. The faecal microflora was also altered by the fluid purge: anaerobes were reduced in some subjects and large numbers of Entero...
متن کاملThe Human Intestinal Microflora Antibiotics and Probiotics
The human intestinal microflora is a complex microbial ecosystem that plays a critical role in the overall health of an individual. This issue will examine the benefits of the “friendly bacteria” that colonize the gastrointestinal tract, various factors that can disturb the normal GI environment, and the wide variety of health problems that can develop when the intestinal microflora is upset. A...
متن کاملEffects of transgalactosylated disaccharides on the human intestinal microflora and their metabolism.
The effects of transgalactosylated disaccharide (TD) intake on human fecal microflora and their metabolism were investigated in 12 Japanese males. TD is a mixture of sugars, galactosyl galactose, and galactosyl glucose, synthesized from lactose through the transgalactosylation reaction of Streptococcus thermophilus beta-galactosidase. Volunteers took 15 g of the test sugar daily for 6 days. The...
