amylase/inflammation

I read with great interest the article titled "Sourdough Fermentation Degrades Wheat Alpha-Amylase/Trypsin Inhibitor (ATI) and Reduces Pro-Inflammatory Activity" by Huang et al [...].

Background: Postoperative day 1-drains amylase (POD1-DA) values are commonly used to predict the risk of pancreatic fistula (PF) after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). Perioperative inflammatory biomarkers have been associated to higher risk

In this paper, water-soluble polysaccharides (named as NRLP) were extracted from Nitraria retusa leaves. The main structural features of NRLP were determined by High-pressure size exclusion chromatography, Fourier transform infrared and Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry-Electronic Impact

The use of serum amylase levels in the diagnosis of acute pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) was investigated prospectively. Eighty-five women presenting with the chief complaint of lower abdominal pain were entered into the study; all patients were examined by one of the principal investigators. In

Background: We have recently shown that the copy number of salivary amylase (AMY1) gene was significantly decreased, and the obesity-related salivary biomarkers resistin, MCP-1, TNF-α, IL-6, and CRP were significantly increased in

Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) is common in patients with asthma. High levels of GAD may lead both to exacerbation of the condition and poor management. However, the physiological mechanisms of GAD in asthma patient is unclear. This study investigated the associations between the diurnal rhythm

Laparoscopic (assisted) distal gastrectomy (LDG) with radical lymphadenectomy for gastric cancer has been widely conducted, particularly in the Far East. Peripancreatic inflammatory fluid collection (PIFC) is a serious and frequent postoperative complication after LDG for gastric cancer. The aim of

The ingestion of gluten-containing foods can cause wheat-related disorders in up to 15% of wheat consuming populations. Besides the role of gluten, α-amylase/trypsin inhibitors (ATI) have recently been identified as inducers of an innate immune response via toll-like receptor 4 in celiac disease and

Wheat amylase-trypsin inhibitors (ATIs) are nutritional activators of innate immunity, via activation of the toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) on myeloid cells. We aimed to characterize the biologic activity of ATIs in various foods and their effect on intestinal inflammation. We selected 38 different

Previously it was reported elsewhere that Lawsonia inermis have anti-inflammatory and analgesic effect in experimental animals. The in vitro porcine alpha amylase inhibitory effect was investigated of this plant methanolic extracts and consequently hypoglycemic effect by quantitatively determining

Ingestion of wheat, barley, or rye triggers small intestinal inflammation in patients with celiac disease. Specifically, the storage proteins of these cereals (gluten) elicit an adaptive Th1-mediated immune response in individuals carrying HLA-DQ2 or HLA-DQ8 as major genetic predisposition. This
