Gut microbiome alterations observed in patients with psoriasis might contribute to the disease pathogenesis through an increased intestinal permeability and translocation of several bacterial metabolites. The aim study was assess gut barrier dysfunction, concentration microbiota-derived metabolites their possible association clinical manifestations comorbidities psoriasis. One hundred twenty mo...

The present study tested the effects of EUK-134, a synthetic superoxide dismutase/catalase mimetic, on several indices of oxidative stress and neuropathology produced in the rat limbic system as a result of seizure activity elicited by systemic kainic acid (KA) administration. Pretreatment of rats with EUK-134 did not modify the latency for or duration of KA-induced seizure activity. It did pro...

We investigated Clostridium difficile in calves and the similarity between bovine and human C. difficile PCR ribotypes by conducting a case-control study of calves from 102 dairy farms in Canada. Fecal samples from 144 calves with diarrhea and 134 control calves were cultured for C. difficile and tested with an ELISA for C. difficile toxins A and B. C. difficile was isolated from 31 of 278 calv...

The $\beta$ decay of the neutron-rich $^{134}$In and $^{135}$In was investigated experimentally in order to provide new insights into nuclear structure tin isotopes with magic proton number $Z=50$ above $N=82$ shell. $\beta$-delayed $\gamma$-ray spectroscopy measurement performed at ISOLDE facility CERN, where indium were selectively laser-ionized on-line mass separated. Three $\beta$-decay bra...
