Hong Kong Baptist University joint research reveals that gut microbial enzymes reactivate triclosan which induces colitis

Hong Kong Baptist University

HONG KONG SAR - Media OutReach - 3 May 2022 - A Hong Kong Baptist University (HKBU) collaborative research study has revealed that certain gut microbial enzymes mediate the reactivation of triclosan (TCS) from its inactive glucuronide metabolite. TCS is an antimicrobial agent commonly used in a wide range of consumer products, and it is associated with the development of colitis. Professor Cai Zongwei, Chair Professor of the Department of Chemistry and Director of the State Key Laboratory of Environmental and Biological Analysis at HKBU, points out that according to the research results specific gut microbial enzymes drive the conversion of TCS metabolites to TCS which increases the chance of developing colitis. The research results have been published in Nature Communications, an international scientific journal. Mechanism of TCS exposure leading to colitis previously unclear TCS is widely used as an antimicrobial agent in consumer products such as toothpaste, mouthwash, hand sanitisers, cosmetics and toys. It is a major environmental contaminant, and it has been shown that TCS exposure increases the risk of colitis. Once TCS enters the human body, it is rapidly metabolised to form the biologically inactivemetabolite TCS-glucuronide (TCS-G), which is easily eliminated from the body. Due to this characteristic, the mechanism of how environmental exposure to TCS leads to gut toxicity in the human body has previously remained unclear. To answer this question, a research team co-led by Professor Cai Zongwei, Chair Professor of the Department of Chemistry and Director of the State Key Laboratory of Environmental and Biological Analysis at HKBU; Professor Matthew R Redinbo from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill; and Professor Zhang Guodong from the University of Massachusetts Amherst conducted a research study based on the hypothesis that certain gut microbial enzymes act on TCS-G in the gut, leading to the reactivation of TCS and the subsequent development of colitis. TCS concentration uniquely high in the gut To begin with, the research team sought to determine whether the gut has a different TCS metabolic profile compared to other body tissues. A group of mice were fed food that contained TCS. After four weeks, it was found that the biologically inactive TCS-G was dominant in their liver, bile, heart and small intestine, while the colitis-inducing TCS was dominant in the gut (cecum and colon). The results showed that the gut has a uniquely high concentration of TCS compared to other body tissues. The research team then analysed the relationship between TCS-containing products and the concentration of TCS in the human body. In a group of human subjects who used TCS-containing personal care products for four months, both TCS and TCS-G were detected in their stool and urine samples, with TCS being dominant in stool and TCS-G being dominant in urine. However, TCS and TCS-G were not detected in the control group who used TCS-free personal care products. The results showed that the use of TCS-containing products leads to a high level of TCS, specifically in the human gut. Gut microbiota significant in TCS-G conversion The question remains why the human gut has a uniquely high TCS concentration. To answer this, the research team put forth the hypothesis that gut microbiota participate in the conversion of TCS-G to TCS, leading to the accumulation of TCS in the gut. To test this hypothesis, the researchers observed that in an in vitro setting, cultured gut bacteria from both mice and humans were able to catalyse the conversion of TCS-G to TCS. To investigate whether the same phenomenon appears in an in vivo setting, the research team found that the inhibition of gut bacteria from mice by applying an antibiotic treatment almost reduced the concentration of TCS in their guts by half, and it increased the concentration of TCS-G by six-fold. The results affirmed that gut microbiota play a significant role in the conversion of TCS-G to TCS in the gut. Specific enzymes catalyse TCS-G conversion To investigate the mechanism by which gut microbiota catalyse TCS-G conversion, the research team focused on the intestinal β - glucuronidase (GUS) enzymes produced by gut bacteria in both mice and humans, because they have been shown to catalyse a wide range of metabolite conversions. Using a series of screening techniques, two types of GUS, namely “Loop 1” and “flavin mononucleotide (FMN)-binding” GUSs, were found to be most effective at converting TCS-G to TCS in vitro. The research team then applied a GUS inhibitor, a drug that inhibits the function of Loop 1 and FMN-binding GUSs, to TCS-exposed and TCS-free mice. It was found that the GUS inhibitor could curb the conversion of TCS-G to TCS by the GUS enzymes. Colitis in TCS-exposed mice was also relieved after the application of the GUS inhibitor. The results support the notion that specific microbial GUS enzymes drive the conversion of TCS-G to TCS, and as a result, the chance of developing colitis is increased. More stringent TCS controls needed Professor Cai said: “Our research results clearly defined the mechanism by which gut microbiota are involved in the metabolism and toxicology of TCS, and the study offers a way to prevent the development of colitis following environmental exposure to chemicals. “Regulatory bodies should consider imposing more stringent controls on the use of TCS. Although the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) banned the marketing of TCS in over-the-counter antiseptic products in 2016, the chemical remains approved for use in a wide range of products. Transparency on TCS ingredients in product labelling and illustrations should also be improved so that consumers can be aware of the potential risks and make informed choices.” #HongKongBaptistUniversity #HKBU Contact Details Winnie Shum of the Communication and Public Relations Office +852 3411 5262 hkbunews@hkbu.edu.hk Company Website https://www.hkbu.edu.hk/

CognitiveCare Inc. Receives a Grant of Nearly $1 Million to Advance Maternal and Fetal Health

CognitiveCare

CognitiveCare, a Healthcare AI startup and pioneer in maternal and infant health, today announced it has received a $965,871 grant from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation to provide antenatal risk stratification AI support for the ARC’s pregnancy surveillance efforts. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), global maternal mortality is an unacceptably high 810 deaths per day, primarily from preventable or treatable causes. Further, 10–15% of all infants born are preterm and are at increased risk of morbidity and mortality. As part of this grant, CognitiveCare will detect and quantify propensity for critical adverse outcomes during antepartum, intrapartum, and postpartum stages, by leveraging CognitiveCare’s Maternal Infant Health Insights & Cognitive intelligence “ MIHIC ” solution. MIHIC incorporates granular insights and patterns that interplay with clinical and social determinants of health to help detect and quantify risks at individual and population levels. CognitiveCare will first validate its models with local data and will then integrate MIHIC into both the Kenya PRiSMA (western Kenya) and the Aga Khan University & VITAL Pakistan ARC sites’ existing production environments. A segment of this grant is dedicated to train the ARC sites to use MIHIC, ensuring sustainable impact. “With the foundation’s grant support, our aim is to support caregivers in understanding propensity for risk early enough to help reduce maternal and infant morbidity and mortality,” said Dr. Suresh Attili, Co-Founder and Chief Medical Officer, CognitiveCare. “Decisions on patient care rest with physicians; however, risk scores generated by MIHIC support triaging patients early. The models will further provide explainable AI functionality to help caregivers understand the ‘why’ behind each MIHIC Score TM.” “ G iven that 94% of all maternal deaths occur in low- and lower-middle-income countries, CognitiveCare is committed to ensuring that low resource settings have access to MIHIC,” said Sheena Gill, President, Americas for CognitiveCare. “With this grant, we take another important step toward our vision to eradicate maternal and infant mortality globally.” About CognitiveCare: CognitiveCare is working at the forefront of science to build the world's first comprehensive health risk quantification solution that integrates AI, advanced math, and stats at the intersection of medicine, biology, genomics and social determinants. CognitiveCare's MIHIC Score™ platform assesses propensity for risk of maternal, fetal and infant health risks categorized as antepartum, intrapartum and postpartum risk scores early in the pregnancy cycle to empower proactive care.

Youth Nicotine Vaping is a Mental Health Crisis

YourUpdateTV

A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/PzinsT6mmYA Two health crises among youth — a mental health crisis and a vaping epidemic — pose increasing threats to a generation of young people. A recently published study in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) shows that youth depression and anxiety doubled during the pandemic, compared to pre-pandemic estimates. Meanwhile, youth vaping remains at epidemic levels with nearly 20% of high schoolers vaping nicotine, with nearly 40% of those who use e-cigarettes, doing so on a regular basis. Truth Initiative ®, the organization behind the highly effective truth ® youth smoking, vaping and nicotine public education campaign organized a Moment of Action for Mental Health as part of its latest Breath of Stress Air effort to bust the fantasy that vaping nicotine is a stress reliever. The Moment of Action for Mental Health comes on the heels of Surgeon General Vivek Murthy issuing an advisory on the state of mental health among young people as an “urgent public health crisis,” and coincides with the on-going youth e-cigarette epidemic. According to the latest December 2021 Monitoring the Future Survey (MTF) report, nearly 20% of high school seniors used e-cigarettes in the past 30 days. A Truth Initiative survey found that 93% of e-cigarette users reported that vaping negatively affected their lives because it made them feel more stressed, depressed, or anxious, while 90% of those who quit said they felt less stressed, anxious, or depressed. Young people nationwide can text “ ACTION ” to 88709 to participate and join in the movement. Those looking to get help quitting e-cigarettes can get free and anonymous help from This is Quitting from truth.

Most people consider BudPop delta 8 gummies helpful against seizures and other chronic disorders. The gummies help stop attacks temporarily or permanently, depending on the usage time. Some other users noted that the product helped relieve seizure symptoms. Note, however, that not everyone consumes these gummies to relieve disorders. Some users utilize the product to enhance their overall body health. Additionally, you can use this product to obtain some therapeutic properties. BudPop uses fruit-derived pectin to make its Strawberry Gelato gummies. Their use favors everybody, especially vegans who can also consume gummies. You will also find that the brand uses hemp from the best-licensed farms in Nevada for production. These farms do not use pesticides or other harmful substances to produce hemp plants. In addition, the product does not contain genetically modified organisms (GMOs). All-natural ingredients ensure that you obtain the best benefits without any harm. BudPop uses an efficient hemp extraction process known as CO2 extraction. The extraction process is efficient because all the essential compounds get retained. Such compounds include terpenes which provide the natural flavoring in the product. What are the ingredients used to make this Strawberry Gelato stand out? The main ingredient used to produce these gummies is the hemp plant. The hemp used for production has 100% GMO-free, pesticide-free, and organic components. Furthermore, the hemp plant used undergoes the full-spectrum separation process. The full-spectrum separation process ensures that all the essential compounds get retained, including THC. Since THC is available, users get the trademark 'high' that comes with consuming cannabis. Some of the compounds you will find include cannabinoids, flavonoids, and terpenes. You will most likely find cannabinoids as natural components of the hemp plant. While the complete profile of cannabinoids includes 66 of them, a few stand out. Some of these components contain tetrahydrocannabinol (THC, cannabigerol (CBG), cannabidiol ( CBD ), and cannabinol (CBN). You will find these components helpful because they provide effects by interacting with some cannabinoid receptors in the body. The results depend on the area of the brain involved in the interaction. However, these ingredients include psychomotor performance, memory, and cognition. Furthermore, these components stimulate pleasure and reward experiences in users. Flavonoids elicit several mind-affecting and medicinal properties in users. In addition, the compound stimulates different pathways in the brain. Thus, flavonoids help control pain and provide uplifting effects to users of this product. The hemp plant contains several exclusive flavonoids such as cannflavin A, B, and C. They offer users anticancer, brain-protecting, and antioxidant properties. Terpenes are vital components in the production of these gummies. These terpenes are responsible for the unique aroma of the gummies. Furthermore, you will find that BudPop's gummies are more effective because they use terpenes. Thus, you can say that terpenes offer a better user experience. In addition, when combined with full-spectrum CBD, users obtain more potent effects. BudPop's Strawberry Gelato gummies work by stimulating the endocannabinoid system in your body. The system consists of your brain receptors essential in the cannabis experience. The compounds used in the gummies modify your brain to lift your mood and relieve pain. Furthermore, the ingredients enhance your sleep cycle, boost your energy levels, and improve other body functions. Thus, when you use this product consistently, you will get positive changes in your overall health. You will feel most of the effects of these gummies immediately after use. However, you may experience lags in results depending on individual differences. These effects usually start slowly and reach their peak before wearing off. Note that the gummies do not contain more than 0.3% THC. Thus, these gummies remain safe for consumption. Furthermore, the brand follows the 2018 Farm Bill to ensure that its product remains legal. While you may experience a slight 'buzz' during usage, you won't get too high since the THC content isn't much. Strawberries are always welcome all day. Many users have identified with gummies because of their sweet aroma and flavor. You will find that the flavor has amassed several orders more than all the other flavors. Furthermore, users love the aftertaste, which reminds them of the good old days as kids. Hence, the flavor provides benefits and ignites youthful memories of the past. You can sneak in a gummy while working without inconveniencing your colleague. You don't need to worry about the trademark scent of consuming cannabis products. Instead of that scent, your colleagues will perceive a pleasant aroma of strawberries. So far, many users believe the Strawberry Gelato is the best flavor yet from BudPop. BudPop is one of the prominent names on the list when considering edibles. With its Strawberry Gelato gummies, the brand has won the hearts of many users. The gummies are the season's flavor because they remind users of childhood memories. Asides from its pleasant aftertaste, you can derive several benefits from using this product.

Letter Outlines Significant Concerns with House Committee’s Unreleased Report

United Network for Organ Sharing

Today, United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) Board President Matthew Cooper, M.D. and Board Vice President Jerry McCauley, M.D. sent a letter to the Chair of the House Committee on Oversight and Reform, sharing their concerns about a report that the committee chose not to release. After receiving an embargoed copy of the report, media outlets began inquiring about the contents. Based on their questions, the report appeared to draw inaccurate conclusions about the nation’s organ donation and transplant system based on a fundamental misunderstanding of donation data and the organ procurement process. The UNOS letter outlines concerns about the impact such a report could have on patients and expressed disappointment in the lack of basic knowledge outside critics involved in the report’s development appear to have about organ donation and recovery. The letter also thanked members of the committee for halting the report’s release. Below are excerpts from the letter: “It is our understanding that the report concludes that some of the nonprofits responsible for facilitating organ donations, organ procurement organizations (OPOs), are missing the “vast majority” of opportunities for donation. Based on the statistics shared with us by the press, it appears as though the report assumes that every person who has died in a hospital is a “potential donor,” even if they were not medically cleared to be an organ donor. In fact, less than 1% of all deaths in the U.S. occur in ways clinically compatible with organ donation; people who die of cancer, sepsis, certain infectious diseases, or organ failure are ruled out for donation by the OPO using medical criteria established by transplant physicians for the safety of the potential recipient.” “The effect of recommending that organ procurement organizations should seek donation authorization for every in-hospital death would have OPOs approaching grieving families about organ donation – even when the OPO had already determined that that donation was not a clinical possibility. Giving false hope to families at such a difficult time wouldn’t just be inefficient, it would be cruel.” “This is not the first time that the organ donation and transplant system has been the subject of criticisms based on inaccurate data. A small group of critics has been circulating a series of op-eds, self-funded “research,” and out-of-context references to paint the world’s highest-performing organ donation and transplant system as ineffective.” The letter closes with Cooper and McCauley sharing the ongoing successes of the nation’s donation and transplantation system and referring to the thoughtful recommendations offered in the recently released National Academies of Science, Engineering, and Medicine (NASEM) report as a blueprint for continuing to improve the system, address challenges, and best serve patients. Read the full letter here. ### About UNOS United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) is the mission-driven non-profit serving as the nation’s transplant system under contract with the federal government.
