  • GB004 demonstrated activity in 11 of 12 systems in the BioMAP human co-culture assay, which covers a range of disease-relevant immune and non-immune mechanisms under stimulation conditions. (ecco-ibd.eu)
  • 1992. A Multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, comparison of nocturnal Roxatidine in the treatment of active duodenal ulcer disease. (uc.edu)
  • Nucleic acids, such as antisense oligonucleotides (AONs) and small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) have enormous potential as therapeutics for life-threatening diseases because in principle, any problematic gene can be targeted with high efficacy and sequence-specificity. (grstiftung.ch)
  • More importantly, it will allow establishing a technological platform, which could be exploited for the oral treatment of several rare colonic diseases. (grstiftung.ch)
  • Reporting April 28 in Genome Medicine, researchers led by Ullrich Wüllner of the University of Bonn in Germany describe striking changes in the microbial communities living in the intestines of people in the earliest stages of the disease. (alzforum.org)
  • Whether these microbial changes are a cause or consequence of the disease process is unclear, although a study in mice colonized with human microbes suggested both may be true: PD somehow alters the composition of the intestinal flora, which in turn accelerates pathology (see Dec 2016 news ).

  • The assays were repeated in the presence or absence of 10 mM sodium butyrate in using colonic explants isolated from ( G ) wild-type or ( H ) SCAD-deficient mice. (jci.org)
