Does bromelain protect piglets from diarrhoea caused by oral challenge with K88 positive enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli?
Results show that bromelain can temporarily inactivate ETEC receptors in vivo and protect against ETEC induced diarrhoea. Bromelain may therefore be an effective prophylaxis against ETEC infection.
These data suggest that glutamate acting on ionotropic, but not metabotropic, receptors in the LC exerts an inhibitory modulation of hypercapnia-induced hyperpnea.
