| 1 | Role and mechanisms of action of escherichia coli nissle 1917 in the maintenance of remission in ulcerative colitis patients: an update显示文摘Ulcerative colitis(UC) is a chronic inflammatory disease, whose etiology is still unclear. Its pathogenesis involves an interaction between genetic factors, immune response and the 'forgotten organ', Gut Microbiota. Several studies have been conducted to assess the role of antibiotics and probiotics as additional or alternative therapies for Ulcerative Colitis. Escherichia coli Nissle(Ec N) is a nonpathogenic Gram-negative strain isolated in 1917 by Alfred Nissle and it is the active component of microbial drug Mutaflor®(Ardeypharm Gmb H, Herdecke, Germany and Ec N, Cadigroup, In Italy) used in many gastrointestinal disorder including diarrhea, uncomplicated diverticular disease and UC. It is the only probiotic recommended in ECCO guidelines as effective alternative to mesalazine in maintenance of remission in UC patients. In this review we propose an update on the role of Ec N 1917 in maintenance of remission in UC patients, including data about efficacy and safety. Further studies may be helpful for this subject to further the full use of potential of Ec N. | Franco Scaldaferri Viviana Gerardi Francesca Mangiola Loris Riccardo Lopetuso Marco Pizzoferrato Valentina Petito Alfredo Papa Jovana Stojanovic Andrea Poscia Giovanni Cammarota Antonio Gasbarrini | 2016 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2016,22,24: | 19 |
| 2 | Effect of rifaximin on gut microbiota composition in advanced liver disease and its complications显示文摘Liver cirrhosis is a paradigm of intestinal dysbiosis. The qualitative and quantitative derangement of intestinal microbial community reported in cirrhotic patients seems to be strictly related with the impairment of liver function. A kind of gut microbial 'fingerprint',characterized by the reduced ratio of 'good' to 'potentially pathogenic' bacteria has recently been outlined,and is associated with the increase in Model for End-Stage Liver Disease and Child Pugh scores. Moreover,in patients presenting with cirrhosis complications such as spontaneous bacterial peritonitis(SBP),hepatic encephalopathy(HE),and,portal hypertension intestinal microbiota modifications or the isolation of bacteria deriving from the gut are commonly reported. Rifaximin is a non-absorbable antibiotic used in the management of several gastrointestinal diseases. Beyond bactericidal/bacteriostatic,immune-modulating and anti-inflammatory activity,a little is known about its interaction with gut microbial environment. Rifaximin has been demonstrated to exert beneficial effects on cognitive function in patients with HE,and also to prevent the development of SBP,to reduce endotoxemia and to improve hemodynamics in cirrhotics. These results are linked to a shift in gut microbes functionality,triggering the production of favorable metabolites. The low incidence of drug-related adverse events due to the small amount of circulating drug makes rifaximin a relatively safe antibiotic for the modulation of gut microbiota in advanced liver disease. | Francesca Romana Ponziani Viviana Gerardi Silvia Pecere Francesca D'Aversa Loris Lopetuso Maria Assunta Zocco Maurizio Pompili | 2015 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2015,21,43: | 16 |
| 3 | Role of Helicobacter pylori infection on nutrition and metabolism显示文摘Helicobacter pylori(H. pylori) is a gram-negative pathogen that is widespread all over the world, infecting more than 50% of the world's population. It is etiologically associated with non-atrophic and atrophic gastritis, peptic ulcer and shows a deep association with primary gastric B-cell lymphoma and gastric adenocarcinoma. Recently, the medical research focused on the modification of the gastric environment induced by H. pylori infection, possibly affecting the absorption of nutrients and drugs as well as the production of hormones strongly implicated in the regulation of appetite and growth. Interestingly, the absorption of iron and vitamin B12 is impaired by H. pylori infection, while infected subjects have lower basal and fasting serum levels of ghrelin and higher concentration of leptin compared to controls. Since leptin is an anorexigenic hormone, and ghrelin stimulates powerfully the release of growth hormone in humans, H. pylori infection may finally induce growth retardation if acquired very early in the childhood and in malnourished children. This review is focused on the nutritional effects of H. pylori infection, such as the reduced bioavailability or the malabsorbption of essential nutrients, and of gastrointestinal hormones, as well as on the relationship between H. pylori and the metabolic syndrome. | Francesco Franceschi Tortora Annalisa Di Rienzo Teresa D'Angelo Giovanna Gianluca Ianiro Scaldaferri Franco Gerardi Viviana Tesori Valentina Lopetuso Loris Riccardo Gasbarrini Antonio | 2014 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2014,20,36: | 11 |
| 4 | Nodular lymphoid hyperplasia: A marker of low-grade inflammation in irritable bowel syndrome?显示文摘AIM To evaluate the prevalence of nodular lymphoid hyperplasia(NLH) in adult patients undergoing colonoscopy and its association with known diseases. METHODS We selected all cases showing NLH at colonoscopy in a three-year timeframe, and stratified them into symptomatic patients with irritable bowel syndrome(IBS)-type symptoms or suspected inflammatory bowel disease(IBD), and asymptomatic individuals undergoing endoscopy for colorectal cancer screening.Data collection included medical history and final diagnosis. As controls, we considered all colonoscopies performed for the aforementioned indications during the same period.RESULTS One thousand and one hundred fifty colonoscopies were selected. NLH was rare in asymptomatic individuals(only 3%), while it was significantly more prevalent in symptomatic cases(32%). Among organic conditions associated with NLH, the most frequent was IBD, followed by infections and diverticular disease. Interestingly, 31% of IBS patients presented diffuse colonic NLH. NLH cases shared some distinctive clinical features among IBS patients: they were younger, more often female, and had a higher frequency of abdominal pain, bloating, diarrhoea, unspecific inflammation, self-reported lactose intolerance and metal contact dermatitis. CONCLUSION About 1/3 of patients with IBS-type symptoms or suspected IBD presented diffuse colonic NLH, which could be a marker of low-grade inflammation in a conspicuous subset of IBS patients. | Anna Chiara Piscaglia Lucrezia Laterza Valentina Cesario Viviana Gerardi Rosario Landi Loris Riccardo Lopetuso Giovanni Calò Giovanna Fabbretti Massimo Brisigotti Maria Loredana Stefanelli Antonio Gasbarrini | 2016 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2016,22,46: | 2 |
| 5 | Anti-tumor necrosis factor α therapy associates to type 17 helper T lymphocytes immunological shift and significant microbial changes in dextran sodium sulphate colitis显示文摘BACKGROUND Anti-tumor necrosis factor α(TNFα) represents the best therapeutic option to induce mucosal healing and clinical remission in patients with moderate-severe ulcerative colitis. On the other side gut microbiota plays a crucial role in pathogenesis of ulcerative colitis but few information exists on how microbiota changes following anti-TNFα therapy and on microbiota role in mucosal healing.AIM To elucidate whether gut microbiota and immune system changes appear following anti TNFα therapy during dextran sulfate sodium(DSS) colitis.METHODS Eighty C57 BL/6 mice were divided into four groups: 'No DSS', 'No DSS + antiTNFα', 'DSS' and 'DSS + anti-TNFα'. 'DSS' and 'DSS + anti-TNFα' were treated for 5 d with 3% DSS. At day 3, mice whithin 'No DSS+anti-TNFα' and'DSS+anti-TNFα' group received 5 mg/kg of an anti-TNFα agent. Forty mice were sacrificed at day 5, forty at day 12, after one week of recovery post DSS. The severity of colitis was assessed by a clinical score(Disease Activity Index), colon length and histology. Bacteria such as Bacteroides, Clostridiaceae, Enterococcaceae and Fecalibacterium prausnitzii(F. prausnitzii) were evaluated by quantitative PCR.Type 1 helper T lymphocytes(Th1), type 17 helper T lymphocytes(Th17) and CD4+ regulatory T lymphocytes(Treg) distributions in the mesenteric lymph node(MLN) were studied by flow cytometry.RESULTS Bacteria associated with a healthy state(i.e., such as Bacteroides, Clostridiaceae and F. prausnitzii) decreased during colitis and increased in course of anti-TNFαtreatment. Conversely, microorganisms belonging to Enterococcaceae genera,which are linked to inflammatory processes, showed an opposite trend.Furthermore, in colitic mice treated with anti-TNFα microbial changes were associated with an initial increase(day 5 of the colitis) in Treg cells and a consequent decrease(day 12 post DSS) in Th1 and Th17 frequency cells. Healthy mice treated with anti-TNFα showed the same histological, microbial and immune features of untreated colitic mice. 'No DSS + anti-TNFα' group showed a lymphomononuclear infiltrate both at 5 th and 12 th d at hematoxylin and eosin staining, an increase of in Th1 and Th17 frequency at day 12, an increase of Enterococcaceae at day 5, a decrease of Bacteroides and Clostridiaceae at day 12.CONCLUSION Anti-TNFα treatment in experimental model of colitis improves disease activity but it is associated to an increase in Th17 pathway together with gut microbiota alteration. | Valentina Petito Cristina Graziani Loris R Lopetuso Marco Fossati Alessandra Battaglia Vincenzo Arena Domenico Scannone Gianluca Quaranta Andrea Quagliariello Federica Del Chierico Lorenza Putignani Luca Masucci Maurizio Sanguinetti Alessandro Sgambato Antonio Gasbarrini Franco Scaldaferri | 2019 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2019,25,12: | 2 |

| 8 | Orphan patients with inflammatory bowel disease-when we treat beyond evidence显示文摘Inflammatory bowel disease(IBD)is a chronic condition that requires continuous medical treatment.To date,the medical management of patients with moderatelyto-severely active IBD who develop dependence or resistance to corticosteroids is based on immunomodulator drugs.Such therapies are licenced after passing through three phases of randomized controlled trials(RCTs),and are subsequently adopted in clinical practice.However,the real-life population of IBD patients who require these therapies can significantly differ from those included in RCTs.As a matter of fact,there is a number of exclusion criteria–nearly ubiquitous in all RCTs–that prevent the enrolment of specific patients:Chronic refractory pouchitis or isolated proctitis in ulcerative colitis,short-bowel syndrome and stomas in Crohn’s disease,ileorectal anastomosis in both ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease,and elderly age are some representative examples.In this frontier article,we aim to give an overview of current literature on this topic,in order to address the main knowledge gaps that need to be filled in the upcoming years. | Giuseppe Privitera Daniela Pugliese Loris Riccardo Lopetuso Franco Scaldaferri Alfredo Papa GianLodovico Rapaccini Antonio Gasbarrini Alessandro Armuzzi | 2021 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2021,27,47: | 0 |
| 9 | Infliximab does not increase colonic cancer risk associated to murine chronic colitis显示文摘AIM To explore the influence of Infliximab(IFX) on cancer progression in a murine model of colonic cancer associated to chronic colitis.METHODS AOM/DSS model was induced in C57BL/6 mice. Mice were injected with IFX(5 mg/kg) during each DSS cycle while control mice received saline. Body weight, occult blood test and stool consistency were measured to calculate the disease activity index(DAI). Mice were sacrificed at week 10 and colons were analyzed macroscopically and microscopically for number of cancers and degree of inflammation. MTT assay was performed on CT26 to evaluate the potential IFX role on metabolic activity and proliferation. Cells were incubated with TNF-α or IFX or TNF-α plus IFX, and cell vitality was evaluated after 6, 24 and 48 h. The same setting was used after pre-incubation with TNF-α for 24 h.RESULTS IFX significantly reduced DAI and body weight loss in mice compared with controls, preserving also colon length at sacrifice. Histological score was also reduced in treated mice. At macroscopic analysis, IFX treated mice showed a lower number of tumor lesions compared to controls. This was confirmed at microscopic analysis, although differences were not statistically significant. In vitro, IFX treated CT26 maintained similar proliferation ability at MTT test, both when exposed to IFX alone and when associated to TNF-α.CONCLUSION IFX did not increase colonic cancer risk in AOM-DSS model of cancer on chronic colitis nor influence directly the proliferation of murine colon cancer epithelial cells. | Loris R Lopetuso Valentina Petito Tiziano Zinicola Cristina Graziani Viviana Gerardi Vincenzo Arena Maria Emiliana Caristo Andrea Poscia Giovanni Cammarota Alfredo Papa Valerio Cufino Alessandro Sgambato Antonio Gasbarrini Franco Scaldaferri | 2016 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2016,22,44: | 0 |
