A Glial Cell Inhibitor Blocks Epithelial Barrier Repair in a Pig Model of Intestinal Ischemia
Sheridan, A., Pridgen, T., Odle, J., Van Landeghem, L., Blikslager, A., & Ziegler, A. (2020, April). FASEB JOURNAL, Vol. 34.
TL;DR:
It is hypothesized that EGC inhibition in juveniles will block epithelial barrier repair after ischemic injury mimicking the neonatal phenotype, and the development of glial‐epithelial crosstalk in barrier repair will ultimately guide novel clinical solutions to improve outcomes in neonatal patients affected by intestinal injury.

Effects of Oligosaccharide Supplementation on Intestinal Morphology and Enteric Glial Cell Marker Expression in a Neonatal Pig Model
Shapiro, L., Ziegler, A., Odle, J., Van Landeghem, L., & Blikslager, A. (2020, April). FASEB JOURNAL, Vol. 34.
TL;DR:
Test the effects of dietary oligosaccharides on postnatal changes in the EGC network and intestinal morphology in a neonatal pig model to find increased mucosal expression of EGC markers earlier in postnatal development in the high oligOSaccharide group, as well as histological changes consistent with enhanced rates of gut maturation in pigs fed a high oligosACcharide diet.

What Constitutes a Gluconeogenic Precursor?
The Journal of Nutrition, 150(9), 2239–2241.
Contributors: M. Tetrick* & J. Odle n
author keywords: acetone; anaplerotic reactions; fatty acids; gluconeogenesis; gluconeogenic precursors; glyoxylate cycle; tricarboxylic acid cycle; precursor
MeSH headings : Acetyl Coenzyme A / metabolism; Carbon / metabolism; Citric Acid Cycle; Fatty Acids / metabolism; Gluconeogenesis / physiology; Glucose / biosynthesis; Glyoxylates / metabolism; Humans; Oxidation-Reduction
