https://www.selleckchem.com/products/ono-7300243.html Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a representative intestinal chronic inflammatory disease whose incidence is rapidly increasing worldwide. It was previously shown that some specific probiotics help to guard against UC. In this study, we analyzed the effect of Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis JCM5805 (L. lactis), which has been put to practical use as a probiotic, on the pathogenesis of UC using a dextran sulfate sodium-induced colitis mouse model. Survival rate, length, and histopathological parameters of the colon were elucidated. Further, the concentrations of inflammatory cytokines in serum were measured. As a result, the oral administration of high-dose L. lactis showed significant decreases in survival rate and colon length. Histopathological analysis showed that a bleeding appearance was observed in the L. lactis group, and the histology scores in the L. lactis group were significantly higher than those in the normal saline group. Furthermore, the levels of interferon gamma, tumor necrosis factor alpha, and interleukin-6 were significantly elevated in the L. lactis group. These results support that high-dose administration of L. lactis deteriorates intestinal inflammation and suggest that the careful selection of probiotics strains and administration dose is important for improving colitis including UC. BACKGROUND The 16-item patient-reported Manchester-Oxford Foot Questionnaire (MOXFQ) with subscales of pain, social interactions, and walking/standing has been claimed for strongest scientific evidence in measuring foot and ankle complaints. This study tests the validity of the Finnish MOXFQ for orthopaedic foot and ankle population using the Rasch analysis. METHODS We translated the MOXFQ into Finnish and used that translation in our study. MOXFQ scores were obtained from 183 patients.
