Lactate is converted to butyrate by the bacteria in the gut, which induces mucin synthesis, which is a glycoprotein that maintains the gut epithelium integrity. Butyrate also acts to prevent bacterial transport across the epithelium and increases tight junction assembly (11). What this means, is that the fermentation of fiber allows these beneficial metabolites to be produced, causing a cascade of reactions that promote health and gut integrity. This shows the complex beneficial interaction between gut

Introduction The dawn of the antibiotic era began in 1920’s with the discovery of Penicillin by Andrew Fleming. Since that time countless millions of people have survived ailments that by modern medical practice would be considered trivial. Point-in-fact 90% of all children suffering from meningitis died before the implementation of antibiotics. Of the children who survived, many suffered from debilitating conditions such as deafness or even mental retardation. Infections such as strep throat were

consciousness may occur.      The blood brain barrier protects brain cells from harmful substances, as well as, pathogens, by preventing passage of many substances from blood into brain tissue.      Tight junctions seal together the enclothelial cells of brain capillaries, which also are surrounded by a thick basement membrain. The process of many astrocyties pressing up against the capillaries is known as the Astrocyties Process. This process selectively

Mary Gorton Microbiology Research paper Page 1 General defense mechanisms associated with the digestive system The gastrointestinal tract is a lymphoid organ, and the lymphoid tissue within it is collectively referred to as the gut-associated lymphoid tissue or GALT. The number of lymphocytes in the GALT is roughly equivalent to those in the spleen, and, based on location, these cells are distributed in three basic populations: 1. Peyer's Patches: These are lymphoid follicles similar in many

Introduction In this report, the symptoms of this patient will be diagnosed, and the causes of them discussed with reference to the physiology and pharmacology of the autonomic nervous system. The Autonomic Nervous System The autonomic nervous system (ANS) is the part of the motor division of the peripheral nervous system (PNS) that controls involuntary processes in the body (Wieczorek, 2014). Such functions include control of heart rate, gland activity, smooth muscle contraction and constriction

Background Organ transplantation is a surgical procedure of replacing a failing or diseased organ with a healthier donor organ. In 2011, nearly 80% of 4500 Canadians needing an organ transplant are waiting for a donor. Of which, 35% died while waiting for an organ. In 2014, 2356 organs were transplanted and over 4500 patients were still waiting for the donor. The statistics prove that organ transplantation is critical and the transplanted organ must stay healthy for the rest of the recipient’s life

Emily Dickinson's Death Poems Emily Dickinson's world was her father's home and garden in a small New England town. She lived most of her life within this private world. Her romantic visions and emotional intensity kept her from making all but a few friends. Because of this life of solitude, she was able to focus on her world more sharply than other authors of her time were. Her poems, carefully tied in packets, were discovered only after she had died. They reveal an unusual awareness of herself

so far over budget and hours. The number of tasks to be completed is still the same as scheduled at this point in the project. These metrics are highlighting two items that could possibly lead to some changes and mandates to the project and this junction in the project. As the number of hours and cost are over the planned value it could be deduced that workers are putting in significant overtime to complete the tasks assigned. If these numbers would have not be analyzed until the completion of the
