Preliminary Studies Demonstrating Acetoclastic Methanogenesis in a Rat Colonic Ring Model
Washed rat colonic rings were incubated in closed flasks under N2 at physiologic pH and temperature levels. In the absence of an exogenous substrate, negligible H2 but some CH4 concentrations were detected in vitro after one hour of incubation, but high concentrations (H2 > 100 ppm, CH4 > 10 ppm) of both gases were found after 24 hours of culture. Production of H2 and CH4 by the washed colonic ...
متن کاملEffect of inhibition of acetoclastic methanogenesis on growth of archaeal populations in an anoxic model environment.
Methyl fluoride is frequently used to specifically inhibit acetoclastic methanogenesis, thus allowing determination of the relative contribution of acetate versus H2/CO2 to total CH4 production in natural environments. However, the effect of the inhibitor on growth of the target archaeal population has not yet been studied. Therefore, we incubated rice roots as an environmental model system und...
متن کاملThe impact of Lactobacillus acidophilus on hepatic and colonic fibrosis induced by ethephon in a rat model
Objective(s): The study is aimed to elucidate the impact of antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and antifibrosis properties of Lactobacillus acidophilus (L. acidophilus) on liver and colon in ethephon treated rats through measuring Pro- inflammatory cytokines, oxidative stress index, lysosomal cathepsin-D enzyme activity and fibrosis markers.Materials and ...
متن کاملA preliminary study of ALPPS procedure in a rat model
Associating Liver Partition and Portal vein ligation for Staged hepatectomy (ALPPS) has been reported to be a novel surgical technique that provides fast and effective growth of liver remnant. Despite occasional reports on animal studies, the mechanisms of rapid liver regeneration in ALPPS remains unclear. In the present study, we intend to develop a reproducible rat model to mimick ALPPS and t...
متن کاملTriptolide ameliorates colonic fibrosis in an experimental rat model
Triptolide is known to exert anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory activities; however, its impact on intestinal fibrosis has not been previously examined. Based on our previous studies of the suppressive activity of triptolide on human colonic subepithelial myofibroblasts and the therapeutic efficacy of triptolide in Crohn's disease, it was hypothesized that triptolide may have beneficial eff...
