The phytonutrient cinnamaldehyde limits intestinal inflammation and enteric parasite infection
2021-03-02
Abstract excerpt
Phytonutrients such as cinnamaldehyde (CA) have been studied for their effects on metabolic diseases, but their influence on mucosal inflammation and immunity to enteric infection are not well documented. Here, we show that consumption of CA significantly down-regulates transcriptional pathways connected to inflammation in the small intestine of mice. During infection with the enteric helminth Heligomosomoides pol...
