proteinase inhibitor/diarrhea

Biochemical and gross pathological effects of diquat were studied with special attention to cysteine proteinase inhibitor level which was often increased in acute and chronic disorder. Diquat was fed continuously to rats at the dose of 1000 ppm in the diet. After 10 days, anorexia and severe

BACKGROUND Idiopathic acute hemorrhagic diarrhea syndrome (AHDS) is characterized by acute onset of bloody diarrhea, severe dehydration, and increased vascular and intestinal mucosal permeability. Markers of gastrointestinal inflammation, protein loss, and changes in the intestinal microbiota have

Infection with noncytopathic bovine viral diarrhea virus (ncpBVDV) is associated with uterine disease and infertility. This study investigated the influence of ncpBVDV on immune functions of the bovine endometrium by testing the response to bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Primary cultures of

A randomized, controlled clinical trial investigated the effect of early enteral nutrition (EN) on intestinal permeability, intestinal protein loss, and outcome in parvoviral enteritis. Dogs were randomized into 2 groups: 15 dogs received no food until vomiting had ceased for 12 hours (mean 50 hours

Two new methods are described for inactivating lipid-enveloped and non-enveloped viruses in plasma-derived products such as coagulation factors and intravenous immunoglobulin (IGIV). Iodine/Sephadex delivers iodine to IGIV solutions in a slow, controlled way and allows for inactivation of > or = 4

OBJECTIVE To evaluate serum concentrations of biochemical markers and survival time in dogs with protein-losing enteropathy (PLE). METHODS Prospective study. METHODS 29 dogs with PLE and 18 dogs with food-responsive diarrhea (FRD). METHODS Data regarding serum concentrations of various biochemical

In 31 consecutive patients who received an allogeneic bone marrow transplantation the loss of proteins during the period at risk for acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) was studied in order to determine whether the quantity of protein loss could be used for grading the severity of aGVHD. It was

To obtain some insight into the toxicity of paraquat (PQ) in humans, PQ dichloride at 250 ppm in the diet was administered to both normal (NO) rats and ODS-od/od (OD) rats which are unable to synthesize ascorbic acid (AsA). Firstly, OD rats and NO rats treated with PQ were compared with untreated NO

Paraquat dichloride at 250 ppm in the diet was fed continuously to rats. Though no apparent effect of paraquat was observed until 10 d, some rats then began to show several symptoms such as diarrhea, anorexia, epistaxis, and hypokinesia, and in some cases rats died after this period. The biochemical

In this study, the virus-removal capacity of nanofiltration was assessed using validated laboratory scale models on a wide range of viruses (pseudorabies virus; human immunodeficiency virus; bovine viral diarrhea virus; West Nile virus; hepatitis A virus; murine encephalomyocarditis virus; and

The water-soluble protein fraction obtained from Plumeria pudica (LPPp) latex has previously been demonstrated to have anti-inflammatory and antinociceptive effects. In the present study, LPPp was tested for activity against diarrhea induced by castor oil, prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) or cholera toxin.
