Chemotherapeutic intestinal mucositis (CIM) is one of toxic side effects chemotherapeutic agents aim this study was to identify structure BO evaluate therapeutic 5-fluorouracil-induced mucosal inflammation. Methods were purified DEAE52 cellulose. characterised by HPGPC, GC-MS NMR. In vivo , mouse model established intraperitoneal injection 5-FU. in mice detected assessing levels flora, ZO-1, occludin, MUC-2, inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β, IL-6, IL-10, TNF-α). Results Structural characterisation showed that neutral polysaccharide composed mainly glucose mannose. backbone consisted of→4)-β-Manp-(1→, →4)-β-Glcp-(1→ small →3,4)-α-Manp-(1→. results experiment symptoms diarrhoea, haematochezia colonic lesions improved after administration BO.

Abstract Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) is one of the major bacterial infections, causing substantial economic losses globally in swine industry. This study aimed to investigate impact low Saccharomyces cerevisiae fermentation postbiotics (SCFP), high SCFP, essential oil (EO), or their combination on growth performance and health weanling pigs during ETEC infection. Forty-eight male were randomly allocated five groups: 1) control group (CON—basal diet, n = 16); 2) SCFP (LSC—basal diet + 1.25 g/kg 8); 3) (HSC—basal 2 4) (EO—basal 0.4 EO, 5) EO (SE—basal 8). On day 15 trial, CON divided into positive (PC) negative (NC), all pigs, except NC, challenged with ETEC. Under normal condition, dietary LSC, HSC, increased average daily gain (ADG) (P < 0.05), decreased F:G ratio 0.05) accompanied by malondialdehyde (MDA) increases catalase (CAT), total superoxide dismutase (T-SOD), antioxidant capacity (T-AOC) indicating enhanced anti-oxidative capacity, as well IL-2, IL-8, INF-γ, mitigated systemic inflammation. During infection, treatments alleviated ETEC-induced ADG reduction, diarrhea, damages intestinal permeability morphology, down-regulation tight junctions (Claudin1, ZO-1, Occludin), while HSC exhibited additional protections.

Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) is a major cause of diarrheal disease worldwide, particularly in children low- and middle-income countries. Its ability to rapidly colonize the intestinal tract through diverse colonization factors toxins underpins its significant public health impact. Despite extensive research several vaccine candidates reaching clinical trials, no licensed exists for ETEC. This review explores temporal spatial coordination ETEC virulence factors, focusing on interplay between adherence mechanisms toxin production as critical targets therapeutic intervention. Advancements molecular biology host–pathogen interaction studies have uncovered species-specific variations cross-reactivity human animal strains. In particular, heat-labile (LT) heat-stable (ST) provided crucial insights into disruption. Additional exotoxins, such EAST-1 hemolysins, further highlight multifactorial nature pathogenicity. Innovative strategies, including multiepitope fusion antigens (MEFAs), mRNA-based approaches, glycoconjugates, aim enhance broad-spectrum immunity. Novel delivery methods, like intradermal immunization, show promise eliciting robust immune responses.
