A female case with Down syndrome and non-neurogenic neurogenic bladder

Although the prevalence of a learned voiding dysfunction and non-neurogenic neurogenic bladder (NNB), which is one type of dysfunctional elimination syndrome, is considered to be relatively rare, the association of NNB with Down syndrome (DS) has been elucidated in male patients. We herein describe the occurrence of NNB in an adult female with DS. The diagnosis was confirmed after completely ruling out any neurological or anatomical anomalies that could be related to a lower urinary tract dysfunction. She had renal dysfunction and multiple obstructive uropathies for which clean intermittent catheterization was successfully introduced.

Safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetic study of recombinant human parathyroid hormone in healthy male Chinese subjects

AIM： To determine the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetic parameters of a new drug recombinant human parathyroid hormone [ rhPTH （1-84）] in healthy male Chinese subjects. METHODS： domly divided Thirty-six healthy male volunteers were rangroups received into 3 groups. The volunteers in these single subcutaneous injection of rhPTH （ 1-84） in a dosage of 1, 2 and 4 μg/kg respectively. Blood samples were obtained before and after administration within 24 hours. The rhPTH concentrations in sennn were determined by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. The pharmacokinetic parameters determined with use of standard noncompartmental analysis were the maximum serum concentration （ Cmax ）, the time to attain that concentration （ tmax ）, and the area under the serum concentration-time curve up to 24 hours（ AUC0-24 ） and up to infinity （AUC0-∞）. Dose proportionality of pharmacokinetic parameters （AUC, Cmax of every volunteer of each dosage and A UC was computed from log transformed data） and was examined by mean of analysis of variance （ANOVA） using SPSS software package. In the study, subjects＇ symptoms, objective signs, and vital signs, including blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate and body temperature, were checked and 12-lead electrocardiography was recorded before and after drug administration within 24 hours. Routine laboratory tests, including hematology, blood biochemistry, serum electrolyte, and urinalysis, were performed before and after drug administration within at 24 hours.[第一段]     

The relationship between reproductive state and "sexually" dimorphic brain areas in sexually reproducing and parthenogenetic whiptail lizards

The anterior hypothalamus-preoptic area and ventromedial hypothalamus are sexually dimorphic in the reproductively active whiptail lizard Cnemidophorus inornatus. The anterior hypothalamus-preoptic area, which is involved in the control of male-typical copulatory behaviors, is larger in males, whereas the ventromedial hypothalamus, which is involved in the control of female-typical receptivity, is larger in females. In the parthenogenetic whiptail lizard C. uniparens, which is a direct descendant of C. inornatus and exhibits both male-like and female-like pseudosexual behaviors, both brain areas are comparable in size to those of female C. inornatus. This study was conducted to determine whether these brain areas change in size in either species or sex during a time of year when these animals are reproductively inactive, or after removal of the gonads. In male C. inornatus both brain areas changed during reproductive inactivity (either seasonally or surgically induced) and became equivalent to the size characteristic of reproductively active female C. inornatus. When corrected for brain size, the anterior hypothalamus-preoptic area was significantly smaller in intact hibernating and castrated males than in intact males from the summer breeding season. Conversely, the ventromedial hypothalamus was significantly larger in intact hibernating and castrated males than in intact males from the summer breeding season. The two brain areas were not significantly different among the groups of female C. inornatus or parthenogenetic C. uniparens. These results suggest that 1) the brain of whiptail lizards may differentiate seasonally and 2) the female state may be a neutral one to which the male brain reverts during reproductive inactivity.     

Parathyroid hormone decreases in vivo insulin effect on glucose utilization

Hyperparathyroidism is associated with impaired glucose tolerance, and parathyroidectomy may improve carbohydrate homeostasis. It has been suggested that parathyroid hormone (PTH) suppresses insulin secretion but it is unclear whether it also interferes with the peripheral action of insulin. To evaluate in vivo effects of PTH on insulinmediated glucose utilization, 15 male Sprague Dawley rats were continuously infused with rat PTH (1–34) using an Alzet miniosmotic pump at a rate of 0.03 nm/hour. Controls were infused with the vehicle alone. Following 5 days of PTH infusion, plasma calcium (Ca) levels were higher in the PTH-infused rats (12.3±0.2 versus 9.9±0.1 mg/dl, P<0.01). On the 5th day, glucose (700 mg/kg) and insulin (0.175 U/kg) were given as a bolus infusion through the left femoral vein, blood samples were obtained from the right femoral vein, and plasma glucose and insulin were measured at basal (0 minutes) and at 2, 5, 10, and 20 minutes postinfusion. Basal, nonfasting glucose levels were higher (166±4 versus 155±4 mg/dL, P<0.04) in the PTH-infused rats but their insulin levels were similar to those of controls (6.5±0.6 versus 5.6 ±0.5 ng/ml). Postinfusions and maximal (2 minutes) glucose and insulin levels were similar in both groups. However, although insulin levels were similar in both groups at all measured time points, glucose levels at 20 minutes were higher in the PTH-treated rats (205±13 versus 173±9; P<0.03). Also, calculated glucose disappearance rates (Kg) were decreased in the PTH-infused rats (4.05±0.3 versus 4.63±0.8; P=0.054), suggesting an impaired peripheral effect of insulin on glucose utilization. To gain insight into the potential contribution of the hypercalcemia or the PTH to these abnormalities, correlation evaluations were performed. Only in PTH-infused rats did plasma Ca correlate with plasma glucose at 0 and 20 minutes (r=0.6, P=0.02; r=0.7, P=0.01) and with the area under the glucose curve (r=0.6, P=0.03) during the glucose-insulin infusion. Also only in PTH-infused rats did PTH correlate with 0 (P=0.07) and 20-minute (P=0.02) plasma glucose levels. There was no correlation between either Ca or PTH and basal insulin levels or the area under the insulin curve in either group. Consequently, we suggest that in the rat, PTH infusion associated with hypercalcemia impairs insulin effect on glucose utilization in vivo and this defect may be induced by the Ca, PTH, or both.This study was presented in part at the 76th Annual Meeting of the Endocrine Society, Anaheim, CA, USA, June 1994.     

Effects of tumor necrosis factor alpha on parathyroid hormone-induced increases in osteoblastic cell cyclic AMP

Summary Tumor necrosis factor α (10⁻¹⁰–10⁻⁸M) had no effects on cyclic AMP production by the osteoblastic osteosarcomal cells, Saos-2 and G292, or normal rat calvarial cells. The cytokine did, however, inhibit the parathyroid hormone (PTH)-induced effect on cyclic AMP in the Saos-2 and normal rat osteoblastic cells. This inhibitory effect did not occur on prostaglandin E₂-induced cyclic AMP increases in the osteoblastic cells. Interleukin-1 (10 U/ml −100 U/ml) did not produce any effect on basal levels or PTH-induced cyclic AMP increases in these cells.     

Effects of androgen treatment in impotent men with normal and low levels of free testosterone

The relation between sexual function and serum free testosterone (fT) levels, which represent the active fraction of circulating testosterone, was evaluated. Two groups of impotent male subjects with mild hypogonadism were treated with oral testosterone undecanoate (TU); these men presented with tT/luteinizing hormone (LH) ratio and tT levels at the lower limits of normal. The first group had serum fT below 6.6 ng/ml, considered the lower normal value, according to our laboratory method, whereas the second group had normal fT limits. Administration of TU improved sexual function only in impotent men with low fT levels, but not in subjects with normal fT levels, even though the tT levels and the tT/LH ratio of the two groups were not significantly different. The results of our study suggest the presence of a minimun serum fT threshold, lying near the lower normal range, which determines the male sexual function. Moreover, serum fT levels were a more sensitive index than tT for identifying impotent men who can be successfully treated with androgens.

增产菊胺酯对雄性小鼠生殖激素的影响

为了探讨增产菊胺酯引起小鼠精了生成障碍的可能机理，本文研究了增产菊胺酯对雄性小鼠卵泡刺激素（ＦＳＨ）、黄体生成素（ＬＨ）及睾酮（Ｔ）的影响。小鼠经口染毒，隔天一次，连续１０次，第３５天处死。检验因清ＦＳＨ、ＬＨ没有明显变化，而睾丸组织睾酮含量出现剂理依赖性降低，高剂量组与对照组比较有显著性差异（Ｐ〈０．０５），结果表明，增产菊胺酯不影响ＦＳＨ、ＬＨ，而影响Ｔ的合成和分泌。这可能是增产菊胺酯对小鼠精
