Journal ArticleDOI

Klebsiella oxytoca as a causative organism of antibiotic-associated hemorrhagic colitis.

TL;DR: The fulfillment of Koch's postulates for cytotoxin-producing K. oxytoca suggests that it is the causative organism in at least some cases of antibiotic-associated hemorrhagic colitis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Afferent nerve-mediated protection against deep mucosal damage in the rat stomach

TL;DR: Data indicate that afferent nerve stimulation by intragastric capsaicin protects against deep mucosal damage in response to ethanol, an effect that seems related to an increase in mucosal blood flow but not to eicosanoid formation.
Journal ArticleDOI

The effect of omega conotoxin GVIA, a peptide modulator of the N-type voltage sensitive calcium channels, on motor responses produced by activation of efferent and sensory nerves in mammalian smooth muscle.

TL;DR: These findings indicate that CTX-sensitive calcium channels modulate transmitter release in autonomic nerve terminals of mammals, but noticeable species and organ related variations exist in sensitivity to this peptide, possibly reflecting the existence of a heterogenous population of voltage- sensitive calcium channels.
Journal ArticleDOI

Participation of endothelium-derived nitric oxide but not prostacyclin in the gastric mucosal hyperaemia due to acid back-diffusion.

TL;DR: Findings indicate that endothelium‐derived NO plays an important mediator role in the gastric mucosal vasodilatation caused by back‐diffusion whilst vasodilsator prostanoids such as prostacyclin are not involved.
Journal ArticleDOI

Increased expression of TRPV1 receptor in dorsal root ganglia by acid insult of the rat gastric mucosa.

TL;DR: The TRPV1 receptor may be a key molecule in the transduction of acid‐induced nociception of the gastric mucosa and a mediator of visceral hypersensitivity.
