June 16, 2015 Helicobacter pylori targets cancer-associated apical-junctional constituents
Helicobacter pylori strains that express the a protein that increases the risk of gastric cancer. However, the precise mechanisms through which the cancer risk is heightened have not been fully investigated and understood.
In this podcast Dr Mairi McLean talks to Dr Lydia Wroblewski from the Vanderbilt University School of Medicine about the study her group conducted to define mechanisms through which H. pylori modulates expression of the cancer-associated tight junction protein claudin-7.

May 29, 2015 Diagnosis and management of acute kidney injury in patients with cirrhosis
Acute renal failure (ARF) is a common complication in patients with decompensated cirrhosis. The traditional diagnostic criteria of renal failure in these patients were proposed in 1996 and have been refined in subsequent years. More recently the International Club of Ascites (ICA)redefined the criteria to reach a new definition of acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients with cirrhosis. Dr Mairi McLean speaks to lead author Professor Paolo Angeli from the University of Padova about the scientific evidence supporting the new approach to the diagnosis and treatment of acute kidney injury.

April 27, 2015 Demonstration of the usefulness of epigenetic cancer risk prediction
Epigenetic alterations accumulate in normal-appearing tissues of patients with cancer, producing an epigenetic field defect. Cross-sectional studies show that the degree of the defect may be associated with risk in some types of cancer, especially cancers associated with chronic inflammation. Dr Mairi McLean speaks to Dr Toshikazu Ushijima about his study investigating these defects and the association with gastric cancer.

February 10, 2015 XIAP variants in male Crohn’s disease
The genetic basis of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is incompletely understood, and the aim of a recent study in Gut was to identify rare genetic variants involved in the pathogenesis of IBD.
Mairi McLean speaks to authors Sebastian Zeissig, Department of Internal Medicine I, University Medical Center Schleswig-Holstein, and Andre Franke, Institute of Clinical Molecular Biology, Christian-Albrechts-University of Kiel, to hear what they found.

January 02, 2015 Cell lineage distribution atlas reveals heterogeneous gland populations in the gastric antrum
The glands of the stomach body and antral mucosa contain a complex compendium of cell lineages. In lower mammals, the distribution of oxyntic glands and antral glands define the anatomical regions within the stomach.
Now a paper in Gut has examined in detail the distribution of the full range of cell lineages within the human stomach. Mairi McLean talks to authors James Goldenring, Eunyoung Choi and Joseph Roland, all Vanderbilt University School of Medicine, Nashville, Tennessee.

September 25, 2014 Update on basic and clinical aspects of eosinophilic oesophagitis
The identification of a distinct syndrome, designated eosinophilic oesophagitis (EoE), with its own clinical and histopathological characteristics, was first described in the early 1990s. Meanwhile intense research has uncovered many molecular, immunological and clinical aspects of this chronic-inflammatory disorder.
In this podcast, Mairi McLean talks to Professor Alex Straumann, Swiss EoE Clinic and EoE Research Network, about the basic and clinical insights of EoE gathered during the last few years.

August 21, 2014 AIEC pathobiont instigates chronic colitis in susceptible hosts by altering microbiota composition
Inflammatory bowel disease is driven by a seemingly aberrant immune response to the gut microbiota with disease development dictated by genetics and environmental factors. A model exemplifying this notion is work by Andrew Gewirtz, Center for Inflammation, Immunity, & Infection, Georgia State University, and colleagues, demonstrating that colonisation of adherent-invasive Escherichia coli (AIEC) during microbiota acquisition drove chronic colitis in mice lacking the flagellin receptor TLR5 (T5KO).
They have now published a paper in Gut hypothesising that AIEC instigates chronic inflammation by increasing microbial lipopolysaccharide and flagellin levels, and investigating how AIEC colonisation might instigate colitis in T5KO mice.
Mairi McLean talks to Dr Gerwitz about their findings.

August 15, 2014 Besifovir versus entecavir in Asian patients with chronic hepatitis B
Despite the success of hepatitis B virus vaccination in preventing new infection in endemic areas, chronic hepatitis B still poses a heavy burden globally. There are approximately 350 million carriers in the world, with an estimated 60 000 persons dying annually of hepatitis B-related cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma.
In a study recent published in Gut, Professor Man-Fung Yuen, Department of Medicine, The University of Hong Kong, and colleagues, report the results of viral suppression and safety of two doses of besifovir, with entecavir as a comparator in treatment-naive subjects for 48 weeks.
He talks to Mairi McLean about the findings.
