Likewise, Scharf and Tartar [ 8] suggested that marked lignin degradation should be the first step in the process of wood digestion in the gut of WFT.
Vermicomposting is a bio-oxidative process where the microorganisms, both in the gut of the earthworms and in the feedstock, are responsible for the biochemical degradation of the organic matter while the earthworms fragment the substrate, thereby increasing the surface area exposed to the microorganisms.
Crohn's disease (CD) is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease in humans which has features that might be the result of a microbial process in the gut [1], [2], [3], [4].
The rapid increase in ghrelin levels observed on day 3 may be concomitant with the initial phase of the mucositis process in the gut [ 1], thus representing an acute response against the damage induced by cytotoxic drugs.
As part of the normal metacyclogenic process occurring in axenic cultures and in the gut of sand fly vectors, a sub-population of metacyclic promastigotes exposes PS.
This information is valuable since secretory proteins are important components of biological processes in the gut [ 44, 45].
Furthermore, it has been implicated to be involved in the pathogenesis of diabetes [3, 4] and inflammatory processes in the gut [5].
The balance between MMPs and TIMPs is essential for many physiological processes in the gut.
Studies looking at first-degree relatives of patients with AS showed that they too have increased gut permeability, so it is likely that there is an underlying genetic process operating in the gut [ 26, 27].
In our previous work, we demonstrated different oxygen concentrations and the lignin degradation/modification process degradation/modification process both occur in the gut in the whole gut passage of the lower termite, Coptotermes formosanus Shiraki [ 5, 6].
