TY - JOUR. T1 - Protein kinase C regulates the tonic but not the phasic component of contraction in guinea-pig ileum. AU - Sasaguri, T.. AU - Watson, S. P.. PY - 1989/1/1. Y1 - 1989/1/1. N2 - We have investigated the effect of phorbol esters and the down-regulation of protein kinase C on contraction of guinea-pig ileum longitudinal smooth muscle to carbachol and high K+. Phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate (PDBu) enhanced the phasic component and inhibited or enhanced, respectively, the tonic component of contraction to carbachol and high K+. In contrast, 4α-phorbol, which does not activate protein kinase C, had no effect on these responses. Exposure to phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA; 1 μM) for up to 8 h induced a time-dependent loss of [3H]-PDBu binding sites, consistent with the down-regulation of protein kinase C by this treatment. The phasic component of contraction to carbachol or high K+ was unaffected following the down-regulation of protein kinase C. The tonic component of contraction to ...

The ileum /ˈɪliəm/ is the final section of the small intestine in most higher vertebrates, including mammals, reptiles, and birds. In fish, the divisions of the small intestine are not as clear and the terms posterior intestine or distal intestine may be used instead of ileum. The ileum follows the duodenum and jejunum and is separated from the cecum by the ileocecal valve (ICV). In humans, the ileum is about 2-4 m long, and the pH is usually between 7 and 8 (neutral or slightly alkaline). Ileum is derived from the Greek word eilein, meaning to twist up tightly.[citation needed] The ileum is the third and final part of the small intestine. It follows the jejunum and ends at the ileocecal junction, where the terminal ileum communicates with the cecum of the large intestine through the ileocecal valve. The ileum, along with the jejunum, is suspended inside the mesentery, a peritoneal formation that carries the blood vessels supplying them (the superior mesenteric artery and vein), lymphatic ...

Results Transcripts for FGF19 were detected in human ileum, but not colon or duodenum. FGF19 expression was greatly induced in all ileal explants incubated with BA: geometric mean induction of 316-fold by 50 μM CDCA (n=17, p=0.0003), and 231-fold by 50 μM GCDCA (n=11, p=0.001). Measured by ELISA, the amount of FGF19 protein released into the culture media was significantly higher from the explants incubated with 50 μM of BA (CDCA 51 pg/explant, range 8-169, n=11 and GCDCA 38 pg/explant, range 3-113, n=10) compared to the matched control explants (8pg/explant, range 0-46 [p=0.0008] and 6 pg/explant, range 0-13 [p=0.0022] respectively). The EC50 for CDCA was 20 μM and 24 μM for GCDCA. Responses to both BA were similar at 50 μM and 100 μM. 6 h incubation of duodenal and colonic explants with 100 μM CDCA or GCDCA showed that FGF19 expression levels were ,0.35 times the FGF19 expression seen in the control ileal explants at 6 h. In ileal explants, responses of other genes to CDCA and GCDCA at ...

TY - JOUR. T1 - Effect of different calcium channel blockers on inhibitory junction potentials and slow waves in porcine ileum. AU - Borderies, J. R.. AU - Goñalons, E.. AU - Angel, F.. AU - Vergara, P.. AU - Jiménez, Marcel. PY - 1997/2/14. Y1 - 1997/2/14. N2 - The effect of several calcium channel blockers was evaluated: (i) on spontaneous electrical and mechanical activities and (ii) on the response to electrical field stimulation. The study was carried out on whole-thickness preparation of porcine ileum. Glass microelectrodes were used to record membrane potential from smooth muscle cells. Resting membrane potential was -60 ± 2 mV (n = 18) and preparations generated spontaneous slow waves. Electrical field stimulation (EFS) was applied using different parameters. The amplitude and duration of inhibitory junction potentials (IJPs) increased with EFS strength. IJPs were abolished by tetrodotoxin (1 μM). Nifedipine (1 μM) did not modify the amplitude or duration of IJPs. The frequency of ...

Nonadrenergic noncholinergic nerves release nitric oxide in the canine ileocolonic junction, Belg. Soc. Fund. Clin. Physiol. Pharmacol., Ghent, November 17, 1990 ...

The continuous ileal Peyers patches (IPP) of sheep are regarded as a type of mammalian bursal equivalent where B cells diversify their repertoire in an Ag-independent fashion. Anatomically and developmentally similar IPP occur in swine. Resection of ∼90% of the IPP in piglets at birth did not alter Ig levels in serum and secretions or retard diversification of the Ab repertoire when animals were maintained in isolators and colonized with a defined gut flora. Resection or sham surgery elevated IgG and IgA in serum and in lavage fluid from the gut, lung, and in saliva. No changes in the frequency of IgG-, IgA-, and IgM-containing cells in the spleen and peripheral lymph node were observed. Using an index that quantifies diversification of the VDJ repertoire, no differences were seen in three secondary lymphoid tissues between piglets lacking IPP and colonized controls, whereas both groups displayed ,10-fold greater diversification than did late-term fetal piglets or piglets maintained ...

AIM: To investigate in vitro effects of propofol, midazolam and dexmedetomidine, which are commonly used anaesthesic or sedatives, on spontaneous contractions of the ileum both in normal rats and those exposed to hyperdynamic peritonitis. METHODS: Spontaneous contractions of isolated ileum muscle segments from sham operated rats and those exposed to peritonitis, were studied in vitro. The amplitude and the frequency of spontaneous contractions of ileum muscle segments were studied after adding dexmetetomidine, propofol, and midazolam to the organ bath in a cumulative manner. RESULTS: Both amplitude (85.2 +/- 6.6 vs 47.4 +/- 7.1) and frequency (32.8 +/- 4.6 vs 20.2 +/- 3.9) of spontaneous contractions in ileum smooth muscle segments were decreased significantly in the peritonitis group compared to the control group (P , 0.05). Dexmedetomidine significantly increased the amplitude of spontaneous contractions (85.2 +/- 6.6 vs 152.0 +/- 5.4, P , 0.05) whereas, propofol (85.2 +/- 6.6 vs 49.6 +/- 4.8, ...

TY - JOUR. T1 - Extent and role of urogastrone in the adaptive response of rat intestine to patching of a surgical defect in the ileum. AU - Saxena, S. K.. AU - Thompson, J. S.. AU - Joshi, S. S.. AU - Sharp, J. G.. PY - 1993. Y1 - 1993. N2 - Crypt cell production rate, morphometric changes and uptake of radiolabeled human urogastrone (125I rhUG) were evaluated in intestinal tissues of the rat at 2, 4, 8, and 12 days following patching of a surgical defect in the ileum with adjacent cecum. The terminal ileum was incised along its antimesenteric border and the margin of the opened ileum was sutured onto the serosal surface of the cecum. At autopsy, the animals were injected intraperitoneally with 1 μg/g body weight of the metaphase arrest agent, vincristine sulfate, and 50 μCI of 125I-rhUG (specific activity 1.7 μCi/μg) to quantify the crypt cell production rate and uptake of radiolabeled urogastrone, respectively. The results indicated that the crypt cell production rate was increased ...

The effects of metabolic inhibitors and ouabain on alanine transport across rabbit ileum, in vitro, have been investigated. Net transport of alanine and Na across short-circuited segments of ileum is virtually abolished by cyanide, 2,4-dinitrophenol, iodoacetate, and ouabain. However, these inhibitors do not markedly depress alanine influx from the mucosal solution, across the brush border, into the intestinal epithelium, and they do not significantly affect the Na dependence of this entry process. The results of this investigation indicate that: (a) the Na dependence of alanine influx does not reflect a mechanism in which the sole function of Na is to link metabolic energy directly to the influx process; and (b) the inhibition of net alanine transport across intestine is, in part, the result of an increased rate coefficient for alanine efflux out of the cell across the brush border. Although these findings do not exclude a direct link between metabolic energy and alanine efflux, the increased ...

The unidirectional influxes of Na, K, and C1 into isolated strips of rabbit ileum are comprised of movements across the mucosal membrane of the epithelial cells and ionic diffusion into an extracellular shunt pathway. A large fraction of the Na influx across the mucosal membrane alone is inhibited by Li, suggesting the participation of a carrier mechanism in the influx process. The partial ionic shunt conductances of Na, K, and C1 account for at least 82 % of the total tissue conductance. The calculated shunt permeabilities (P) are (in centimeters per hour) P = 0.040, PN = 0.035, and Pcl = 0.019, so that Px:PN:PclI = 1.14:1.00:0.55. Diffusion potentials across the tissue resulting from isotonic replacement of NaCl in the mucosal solution with mannitol or KC1 are described by the Goldman constant-field equation together with the above permeabilities of the shunt pathway. These observations are not consistent with permeation through a fixed-charge pore but can be explained by a model featuring constant

TY - JOUR. T1 - G protein-mediated dysfunction of excitation-contraction coupling in ileal inflammation. AU - Shi, Xuan Zheng. AU - Sarna, Sushil K.. PY - 2004/6. Y1 - 2004/6. N2 - Inflammation impairs the circular muscle contractile response to muscarinic (M) receptor activation. The aim of this study was to investigate whether the expression of muscarinic receptors, their binding affinity, and the expression and activation of receptor-coupled G proteins contribute to the suppression of contractility in inflammation. The studies were performed on freshly dissociated single smooth muscle cells from normal and inflamed canine ileum. Northern blotting indicated the presence of only M2 and M 3 receptors on canine ileal circular muscle cells. Inflammation did not alter the mRNA or protein expression of M2 and M3 receptors. The maximal binding and Kd values also did not differ between normal and inflamed cells. However, the contractile response to ACh in M3 receptor-protected cells was suppressed, ...

Total cholesterol levels and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol levels were lower in the surgery group throughout the trial (P , 0.001) and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels were higher (P = 0.02). Overall mortality was not reduced in the surgery group compared with the diet instruction alone group (12% vs 15%, P = 0.16) {absolute difference 3%, 95% CI -1% to 8%}* but there were fewer deaths among patients with an ejection fraction ≥ 50% (P = 0.02). 82 patients (20%) in the surgery group had a fatal or nonfatal coronary heart disease (CHD) event compared with 125 patients (30%) in the control group. {This absolute risk reduction (ARR) of 10% means that 10 patients would need to be treated (NNT) with partial ileal bypass (rather than diet only) to prevent 1 additional patient from having a fatal or nonfatal CHD event, 95% CI 6 to 21; the relative risk reduction (RRR) was 35%, CI 17% to 49%}*. During follow-up 52 patients (12%) in the surgery group had coronary-artery ...

Individuals in need of lipid modification but are intolerant of statin drugs who are referred for a partial ileal bypass (PIB) operation, still the most efficacious means to treat hyperlipidemia. In the subgroup of these patients who also have type 2 diabetes, with a functioning pancreas, we hope to perform a pilot study on the effect of PIB on type 2 diabetes.. Study blood tests:. - Pre-PIB and at 6 month and 12 months postop fasting blood samples for glucose, hemoglobin A1c, insulin, C-peptide, GLP-1, ghrelin, and glucagon; then after oral glucose meal testing for determination of glucose, GLP-1, and ghrelin at 30, 60, 90, and 120 minutes. ...

Sodium flux from serosa to mucosa, JsmNa in rabbit ileum in vitro has been studied as a function of applied electrical potential at equal sodium concentrations in the bathing solutions. The results indicate that JsmNa involves two pathways, a diffusional flux through a paracellular shunt pathway and a flux that is independent of applied potential and presumably involves a transcellular pathway. The latter pathway comprises approximately 25 % of JsmNa in Ringers solution containing 10 mM glucose and 25 mM bicarbonate. It is stimulated significantly by theophylline unaffected by removal of glucose or addition of ouabain but is reduced to negligible values by anoxia, dinitrophenol, and replacement of all chloride and bicarbonate by isethionate. Thus this component of JsmNa has a number of characteristics consistent with involvement in a specific secretory process mediating an electrically neutral secretory transport of sodium plus anion from serosa to mucosa. In addition to stimulating this ...

Ileum er sluttsegmentet av tynntarmen, som er delt i tre. De to andre segmentene er henholdsvis duodenum (startsegmentet), som helst er kjent som tolvfingertarmen, og jejunum (midtsegmentet). Ileum følger direkte etter det 2-3 meter lange midtsegmentet av tynntarmen. Den første halvdelen ligner mye på jejunum, men omtrent halvveis ned i dette segmentet endrer tarmen seg og får lagt mindre folder. Opptak av viktige produkter som vitamin-B12 og gallesyre tas først opp når næringsinnholdet i tarmen når den nederste delen av ileum. ...

The subcellular distribution of vitamin B12 was studied during its absorption in the guinea-pig ileum. Animals were fed either (57Co) or (58Co) cyanocobalamin and killed two or four hours later. At two hours labelled cyanocobalamin was concentrated in brush border and lysosomal fractions of ileal homogenates, with some remaining in the sample layer. In contrast, at four hours labelled cyanocobalamin was concentrated predominantly in the cytosol with much smaller peaks in the brush border and lysosomal fractions. These findings are consistent with vitamin B12 absorption by receptor-mediated endocytosis. It is suggested that, after binding at the brush border, vitamin B12 is first sequestrated within lysosomes, and then released into the cytosol, from where it leaves the cell to enter the portal blood.

The apparent molal volumes at infinite dilution, φro, of a number of quaternary ammonium salts, tested on the isolated frog rectus and guinea pig ileum preparations, have been determined from precise pycnometric density measurements with dilute aqueous solutions at 25°. In these salts the differences in φro for related compounds arise largely from differences in intrinsic volume.. The apparent molal volumes have been compared with the activity and affinity of the compounds at the acetylcholine receptors of the frog rectus and guinea pig ileum. Increases in size are associated with increases in affinity at both types of receptor, but efficacy (ability to activate receptors) is decreased. It is suggested that efficacy is limited by the ability of the ions to penetrate to sites within the receptor at which they can act to produce a change in the conformation of the receptor.. ...

but not Na+/H+ exchange on the BBM of villus cells during chronic ileitis (17). Na+-dependent nutrient cotransport processes were also inhibited in the chronically inflamed ileum by different mechanisms of inhibition. For example, Na+-glucose cotransport was inhibited by a decrease in cotransporter numbers without a change in the affinity for glucose (18). In contrast, Na+-amino acid cotransport was inhibited by a decrease in the affinity for amino acid without a change in the cotransporter numbers (19). Unlike these two Na+-nutrient cotransport processes, Na+-bile acid cotransport was inhibited by both a decrease in cotransporter numbers and a decrease in the affinity for the bile acid (20). In view of the unique nature of the transport alterations observed in the chronically inflamed rabbit ileum, it was hypothesized that different immune inflammatory mediators may have unique effects on different transport processes during chronic ileitis (19, 20).. The effect of chronic intestinal ...

Definition of ileal loop in the Legal Dictionary - by Free online English dictionary and encyclopedia. What is ileal loop? Meaning of ileal loop as a legal term. What does ileal loop mean in law?

We have previously demonstrated that acute volume expansion increases gastroduodenal resistance to saline flow in rats and dogs, while hypovolemia due to hemorrhage decreases it (4,5). Since ECF volume retraction increases intestinal salt and water absorption (2) while expansion reduces or even abolishes intestinal absorption and increases secretion (3), we proposed a role for ECF volume in the modulation of liquid flow through the upper GI tract, i.e., coupled modulation of the GI tract contractile activity, salt and water transport and ultimately luminal liquid transit to cope with organic needs.. The present study, using the same experimental protocol (ileocolonic segment and separate ileal, ileocolonic sphincter and colonic portions were perfused under constant pressure and changes in flow were assumed to represent modifications in motor activity, tone and/or motility), extends this idea to the lower gut, showing that acute volume imbalances also modify the motor behavior of ileocolonic ...

1996). Nevertheless, the GLC and ILEA led the way so far as anti-racist public policy was concerned; ILEAs Research and Statistics branch, for example, made concerted efforts to analyse and understand racialised patterns of success and failure in the capitals schools. Ultimately both the GLC and ILEA paid the price for their counter-cultural stance in their abolition at the hands of a Thatcher government. An inquiry into a racist murder at Burnage High School in Manchester (Macdonald et al. 1989) also became entangled in the wider racialised politics of the time. Gilroy, P.

During the most commonly performed urostomy surgery, called an ileal conduit, the surgeon takes a six to eight inch piece of the small bowel (the ileum) and makes it into a conduit (or pipeline) for urine. The remainder of the small bowel is reconnected so your bowel will function as it did before surgery. This process is similar to splicing a hose. The ureters (tubes that carry urine from each kidney to the bladder) are removed from the bladder and joined to the piece of ileum (small bowel). One end of the piece of ileum that was removed is sewn closed and the other end is brought through an opening on the abdomen (belly). The part of the ileum you see on your abdomen is called the stoma. The stoma will probably stick out from the abdomen about 1 inch. This is where urine will now drain from your body ...

TY - JOUR. T1 - Partial ileal bypass for hypercholesterolemia. T2 - 20- to 26-year follow-up of the first 57 consecutive cases. AU - Buchwald, H.. AU - Stoller, D. K.. AU - Campos, C. T.. AU - Matts, J. P.. AU - Varco, R. L.. N1 - Copyright: Copyright 2020 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.. PY - 1990. Y1 - 1990. N2 - Between 1963 and 1968, 57 patients underwent partial ileal bypass (PIB) at the University of Minnesota for primary hypercholesterolemia. Preoperative total plasma cholesterol (TC) was 363.3 ± 136.8 mg/dL (mean ± SD) in these patients. Baseline and follow-up TC results demonstrated highly significant (p ≤ 0.001) TC reduction, 34% (n = 48), 28% (n = 49), 35% (n = 26), 35% (n = 11), and 30% (n = 25) at 1, 2 to 5, 6 to 10, 11 to 15, and more than 20 years, respectively, after PIB. In 21 patients with baseline, 1-year, and more than 20-year results, TC decreased 33% by 1 year and remained 29% less than baseline more than 20 years after surgery (p = NS versus 1 year).

TY - JOUR. T1 - Electrophysiology of smooth muscle of the small intestine of some mammals.. AU - Hara, Y.. AU - Kubota, M.. AU - Szurszewski, J. H.. PY - 1986/3/1. Y1 - 1986/3/1. N2 - Intracellular recordings were made from cells located in the longitudinal, inner and outer circular muscle layers of the dog, cat, rabbit, opossum and human small intestine. In whole‐thickness preparations in all five species, longitudinal muscle cells generated slow waves and spikes. However, in isolated longitudinal muscle preparations, all cells tested were electrically silent. In whole‐thickness and in isolated preparations, cells in the inner circular muscle layer generated spontaneous spikes superimposed on slow potentials. However, the occurrence of spikes and slow potentials was more regular in whole‐thickness preparations. In whole‐thickness preparations, cells in the outer circular muscle layer generated slow waves which were coupled with phasic contractions. However, in isolated outer circular ...

A total of 46 Lactobacillus isolates obtained from chicken intestine were assessed on their ability to adhere to the chicken ileal epithelial cell (IEC) in vitro. Twelve out of the 46 isolates showed moderate to good ability to adhere to the IEC. Temperature (between 4°C and 42°C) did not affect att

BACKGROUND & AIMS: Patterning of the small intestinal epithelium along its cephalocaudal axis establishes three functionally distinct regions: duodenum, jejunum, and ileum. Efficient nutrient assimilation and growth depend on the proper spatial patterning of specialized digestive and absorptive functions performed by duodenal, jejunal, and ileal enterocytes. When enterocyte function is disrupted by disease or injury, intestinal failure can occur. One approach to alleviate intestinal failure would be to restore lost enterocyte functions. The molecular mechanisms determining regionally defined enterocyte functions, however, are poorly delineated. We previously showed that GATA binding protein 4 (GATA4) is essential to define jejunal enterocytes. The goal of this study was to test the hypothesis that GATA4 is sufficient to confer jejunal identity within the intestinal epithelium. METHODS: To test this hypothesis, we generated a novel Gata4 conditional knock-in mouse line and expressed GATA4 in the ...

To elucidate the mechanisms leading to the functional regionalization of the digestive epithelium, lactase expression was analyzed at the protein, mRNA and gene levels, along the intestinal tract at various stages of the rat postnatal development. In the colon of neonates, the transient expression of mRNA and enzyme correlated well with gene transcription. In contrast to the colon, complex patterns were observed in the small intestine. In suckling animals, the mRNA was present at a high level despite the progressive decline of enzyme activity. Crypts were devoid of mRNA and the transcript mainly accumulated in the lower half of the villi. From weaning onwards, a functional regionalization of the epithelium was defined, characterized by the modification of the longitudinal distribution of lactase mRNA. Indeed the transcript remained abundant in the distal duodenum, jejunum and proximal ileum, but decreased in the proximal duodenum and became virtually absent in the distal ileum. Concomitantly, ...

The role of the migrating motor complex (MMC) of the small intestine in the absorption of an enterally administered marker (tolfenamic acid, TA) used to investigate enterohepatic recycling was studied in the fasted dog. TA was rapidly and extensively absorbed in the duodenum as well as in the ileum. In contrast, the conjugated form of TA (CTA) was not absorbed in the duodenum but only in the ileum, i.e., after bacterial hydrolysis. By administering CTA in the duodenum at different phases (I and II) of the MMC, it was shown that CTA had to be propelled from the duodenum to the ileum by the motor activity of the MMC. Under these conditions, the peak plasma TA concentration was only observed when phase II of the MMC present in the duodenum at the time of CTA administration arrived in the ileum. The estimated mean transit time of CTA from the duodenum to ileum was 45 min and the mean hydrolysis time of CTA to TA was about 75 min. It was concluded that 1) in the fasted dog, a relatively long delay ...

The jejunum (/dʒɪˈdʒuːnəm/) is the second part of the small intestine in humans and most higher vertebrates, including mammals, reptiles, and birds. The jejunum lies between the duodenum and the ileum. The jejunum is considered to begin at the attachment of the suspensory muscle of the duodenum to the duodenum, a location called the duodenojejunal flexure. The division between the jejunum and ileum is not anatomically distinct. In adult humans, the small intestine is usually 6-7m long, about two-fifths of which (2.5 m) is the jejunum. The interior surface of the jejunum-which is exposed to ingested food-is covered in finger-like projections of mucosa, called villi, which increase the surface area of tissue available to absorb nutrients from ingested foodstuffs. The epithelial cells which line these villi have microvilli. The transport of nutrients across epithelial cells through the jejunum and ileum includes the passive transport of sugar fructose and the active transport of amino acids, ...

In the current study, we investigated the neurochemical basis for the previously reported predominance of stimulatory μ-opioid signaling in guinea pig longitudinal muscle/myenteric plexus (LMMP) preparations after chronic in vivo morphine exposure. As expected, recombinant Gsα (rGsα) dose-dependently stimulated adenylyl cyclase (AC) activity in LMMP membranes obtained from opioid naive as well as tolerant LMMP tissue. However, the magnitude of the increase was significantly greater in the latter than in the former. The Gβγ blocking peptide QEHA (50 μm) essentially abolished stimulation by rGsα in LMMP membranes obtained from both opioid naive and tolerant animals. Interestingly, after partial blockade by lower QEHA concentrations, the incremental AC stimulation by rGsα in tolerant LMMP membranes was no longer observed, indicating augmented Gβγ stimulatory responsiveness. Concomitant changes in the content of AC isoform protein are consistent with these biochemical observations. After ...

Test reagents. Recombinant human GDNF (PeproTech) and TNF-α (Biomol) were used at 100 ng/ml (7, 16). The p38 MAPK inhibitor SB202190 was used at 30 μM (Calbiochem) and anisomycin (Sigma-Aldrich) was used at 60 μM to activate p38 MAPK (16).. Human tissue samples. Human tissue samples were obtained from patients suffering from IBD with an indication for surgical resection. Tissue samples from patients with CD (n = 9) derived from the terminal ileum. They were taken from the center of the inflamed parts of the resection specimens and from the periphery where no inflammation was seen. In patients with ulcerative pancolitis (n = 9) a sample of the affected colon was taken. Since the whole colon was inflamed in these patients, no uninflamed tissue was collected. Control tissue samples (colon or terminal ileum) from patients not suffering from IBD derived from patients that required right or left hemi-colectomy due to colon carcinoma in which the surgical resection routinely involved a part of the ...

This study more fully characterizes this tissue, which we call neogut, and compares it to normal rat small intestine. Anatomy was studied with light microscopy and scanning and transmission electron microscopy; transport and electrophysiologic parameters were measured in full-thickness pieces of tissue mounted in Ussing chambers; mortality patterns, including slow wave and spike activity, were recorded. Subtle anatomic differences (shortened villi and microvilli were noted in neogut compared to normal small bowel. Both neogut and normal rat ileum demonstrated net mucosal to serosal transport of d-glucose; the magnitudes ...

The aim of the present study was to investigate the segment- and time-related changes in rat short bowel syndrome and construct a 4-dimensional (4D) geometrical model of intestinal adaptation. Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into 3 groups: 2-day, 7-day, and 15-day postresection groups in which 75% of the jejunoileum was removed. Histological and morphometrical parameters in the remaining proximal to distal intestinal segments, from the jejunum to the distal colon, were comparatively evaluated in the groups. The data were used to construct a 4D geometric model in which villi were considered as cylinders, and their surface area was expressed as cylinder lateral area. Major adaptive changes were observed in the ileum consisting of an increase in both the diameter of base and the height of villi. A parallel reduction in their number/mm was observed. The resulting ileal architecture was characterized by a limited number of large villi. An opposite pattern was observed in the jejunum whose ...

My Doctor is the most wishy washy Doctor I have ever met. I ask what to do, what medicine to take, he quotes you a bunch if studies and wants you to guess what to take? As a matter if fact I had to push him for the last scope thats when he found the ileum closed off. I have 8 of bad small intestine at the terminal ileum. My thinking is when my pain is normal should I push to have a bowel resection done while the intestine is less inflamed and less likely to have a problem with the surgery . Option 2 keep pushing drugs in me and wait for a problem thats out of control and in the ER for full blown iliam cutout 6 weeks with a bag and go back in to sew the two back together ...

The middle portion of the small intestine is referred to as the jejunum. It connects the duodenum to the ileum. The length of the jejunum is approximately 2.5m. The pH of the jejunum is maintained between 7 and 9, i.e., either neutral or slightly alkaline. The internal membrane of the jejunum is lined with finger like projections referred to as the villi. The surface area of the internal membrane of the jejunum that is available for the absorption of nutrients and products of digestion is increased manifold by the presence of villi. The epithelial cells lining the villi have microvilli. Various nutrients are transported through the epithelial cells of the jejunum. The sugar fructose moves through passive transport and the amino acids, vitamins, small peptides and glucose moves through active transport. The wall of the jejunum contains longitudinal and circular smooth muscles that help to move the food further in the jejunum by a process referred to as peristalsis.

The intestine plays key roles in maintaining body arginine (Arg) homoeostasis. Meanwhile, the intestine is very susceptible to reactive oxygen species. In light of this, the study aimed to explore the effects of Arg supplementation on intestinal morphology, Arg transporters and metabolism, and the potential protective mechanism of Arg supplementation in piglets under oxidative stress. A total of thirty-six weaned piglets were randomly allocated to six groups with six replicates and fed a base diet (0·95 % Arg,) or base diet supplemented with 0·8 % and 1·6 % l-Arg for 1 week, respectively. Subsequently, a challenge test was conducted by intraperitoneal injection of diquat, an initiator of radical production, or sterile saline. The whole trial lasted 11 d. The diquat challenge significantly decreased plasma Arg concentration at 6 h after injection (P,0·05), lowered villus height in the jejunum and ileum (P,0·05) as well as villus width and crypt depth in the duodenum, jejunum and ileum ...
