Pomegranate seed oil reduces intestinal damage in a rat model of necrotizing enterocolitis.
Pomegranate seed oil (PSO), which is the major source of conjugated linolenic acids such as punicic acid (PuA), exhibits strong anti-inflammatory properties. Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is a devastating disease associated with severe and excessive intestinal inflammation. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of orally administered PSO on the development of NEC, intestinal epith...
متن کاملEpidermal growth factor reduces autophagy in intestinal epithelium and in the rat model of necrotizing enterocolitis.
Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is a devastating intestinal disease of premature infants. Epidermal growth factor (EGF) is one of the most promising candidates in NEC prophylaxis. Autophagy regulates cell homeostasis, but uncontrolled activation of autophagy may lead to cellular injury. The aim was to evaluate the effects of EGF on intestinal autophagy in epithelial cells and in the rat NEC mod...
متن کاملYeast-Derived β-Glucan Reduces Intestinal Injury in Rat Model of Necrotizing Enterocolitis
β(1-3)-D-Glucan’s (glucans) are natural products found in yeast, mushrooms, grains and seaweed. β-Glucans represent a group of heterogeneous polysaccharides (both chemically and physicochemically) with strong immunomodulatory capabilities. Natural glucans are found mainly in whole grains, yeast, and mushroom. They represent a complex group of chemically heteregenous polysaccharides with signifi...
متن کاملHepatic inflammatory mediators contribute to intestinal damage in necrotizing enterocolitis.
Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is a common and devastating gastrointestinal disease of premature infants. Along with pathological effects in the ileum, severe NEC is often accompanied by multisystem organ failure, including liver failure. The aim of this study was to determine the changes in hepatic cytokines and inflammatory mediators in experimental NEC. The well-established neonatal rat mod...
متن کاملEpidermal growth factor reduces the development of necrotizing enterocolitis in a neonatal rat model.
Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is the most common gastrointestinal disease of prematurely born infants. Maternal milk plays an important protective role against NEC development and is the major source of epidermal growth factor (EGF) for neonates. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of orally administered EGF on the incidence of NEC in a neonatal rat model. Newborn rats were artifi...
