It has been argued that stimulation of the immune system depresses performance. Accordingly, an experiment was conducted to determine the effect of dietary xylitol (150 g/kg diet) on growth and selected inflammatory responses in male broiler chickens. During the final 6 d of the experimental
Porphyromonas gingivalis is one of the suspected periodontopathic bacteria. The lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of P. gingivalis is a key factor in the development of periodontitis. Inflammatory cytokines play important roles in the gingival tissue destruction that is a characteristic of periodontitis.
OBJECTIVE
The present prospective, randomised, placebo-controlled, clinical trial was designed to evaluate the clinical effects of a commercially available dentifrice containing fluoride, xylitol or xylitol-probiotic on the decrease of plaque and gingival inflammation in children between 13 and 15
BACKGROUND
Glycerol is known to possess anti-irritant and hydrating properties and previous studies suggested that xylitol may also have similar effects.
OBJECTIVE
Our aim was to study whether different concentrations of these polyols restore skin barrier function and soothe inflammation in sodium
BACKGROUND
Xylitol is a well-known anticaries agent and has been used for the prevention and treatment of dental caries. In this study, the anti-inflammatory effects of xylitol are evaluated for possible use in the prevention and treatment of periodontal infections.
METHODS
Cytokine expression was
Introduction: Dental caries is an infectious disease with predominantly of cariogenic bacteria such as Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans). Xylitol is considered as one of the effective agents that can limit this dental infection. In this
Chewing gums may be suitable vehicles for the delivery of xylitol (X) and chlorhexidine acetate (CHX), both of which can aid oral health. The aim of this study was to determine the clinical effectiveness of chewing gums containing X or a combination of X and CHX in a double-blind, randomised, cross
OBJECTIVE
To compare tolerance of two sources of isocaloric intake (fructose-glucose-xylitol mixture [FGX] versus glucose) in parenteral nutrition for patients with systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS).
METHODS
Open, prospective, cohort and randomized study.
METHODS
Intensive Care
To distinguish clinical effects and mechanisms of sodium monofluorophosphate plus xylitol and herbal extracts of Swiss medicinal plants (Chamomilla recutita, Arnica montana, Echinacea purpurea, and Salvia officinalis).A 2-month-long comparative clinical A 2-year-old spayed female Great Pyrenees cross dog was presented following the consumption of pure xylitol sweetener. Blood tests revealed hepatocellular leakage and cholestasis, hyperlactatemia, thrombocytopenia, and prolonged prothrombin and activated partial thromboplastin times. Thoracic
Purpose: Our goal was to study whether glycerol and xylitol provide protection against osmotic stress in keratinocytes. Methods: The experiments were performed on HaCaT keratinocytes. Hyperosmotic stress was induced by the addition of sorbitol (450, 500 and 600 mOsm). Both polyols were
Bone culture was used as an experimental model in studying the ability of dental plaque grown in the presence of xylitol or sucrose to induce bone resorption. Plaque samples were collected in young adults after six or ten days with no oral hygiene and with frequent use of xylitol- or
BACKGROUND
Xylitol is a 5-carbon sugar that can lower the airway surface salt concentration, thus enhancing innate immunity. We tested the safety and tolerability of aerosolized iso-osmotic xylitol in mice and human volunteers.
METHODS
This was a prospective cohort study of C57Bl/6 mice in an animal
Angiogenesis is an important process involved in tumor growth and metastasis. Many studies have investigated the use of natural compounds such as angiogenic inhibitors. Xylitol is a 5-carbon sugar alcohol and is an artificial sweetener that has been used in chewing gums to prevent tooth decay.
Introduction: Chronic rhinosinusitis is an inflammatory condition of the nasal cavity and the paranasal sinuses that requires multifactorial treatment. Xylitol can be employed with nasal irrigation and can provide better control of the
