肥胖型PCOS患者的生物学特征和临床特征

多囊卵巢综合征（polycystic ovary syndrome,PCOS）是一种内分泌代谢紊乱综合征,临床表现高度异质性。肥胖是PCOS异质性临床表现之一,超过50%的PCOS患者超重或肥胖。肥胖型PCOS主要表现为高雄激素血症、中心型肥胖和糖脂代谢紊乱,非肥胖型PCOS主要表现为黄体生成激素（luteinizing hormone,LH）水平异常升高。尽管肥胖型和非肥胖型PCOS均存在内分泌代谢异常,然而肥胖可加重PCOS糖脂代谢紊乱;肥胖型PCOS还表现脂肪代谢的异常。综述肥胖型PCOS患者的临床特征、性激素水平、糖脂代谢特征,旨在为肥胖型和非肥胖型PCOS患者新的分型诊治提供参考。     

Fundamentals about onset and progressive disease character of type 2 diabetes mellitus

ResearchGate is a world wide web for scientists and researchers to share papers, ask and answer questions, and find collaborators. As one of the more than 15 million members, the author uploads research output and reads and responds to some of the questions raised, which are related to type 2 diabetes. In that way, he noticed a serious gap of knowledge of this disease among medical professionals over recent decades. The main aim of the current study is to remedy this situation through providing a comprehensive review on recent developments in biochemistry and molecular biology, which can be helpful for the scientific understanding of the molecular nature of type 2 diabetes. To fill up the shortcomings in the curricula of medical education, and to familiarize the medical community with a new concept of the onset of type 2 diabetes, items are discussed like: Insulin resistance, glucose effectiveness, insulin sensitivity, cell membranes, membrane flexibility, unsaturation index (UI; number of carbon-carbon double bonds per 100 acyl chains of membrane phospholipids), slow-down principle, effects of temperature acclimation on phospholipid membrane composition, free fatty acids, energy transport, onset of type 2 diabetes, metformin, and exercise. Based on the reviewed data, a new model is presented with proposed steps in the development of type 2 diabetes, a disease arising as a result of a hypothetical hereditary anomaly, which causes hyperthermia in and around the mitochondria. Hyperthermia is counterbalanced by the slow-down principle, which lowers the amount of carbon-carbon double bonds of membrane phospholipid acyl chains. The accompanying reduction in the UI lowers membrane flexibility, promotes a redistribution of the lateral pressure in cell membranes, and thereby reduces the glucose transporter protein pore diameter of the transmembrane glucose transport channel of all Class I GLUT proteins. These events will set up a reduction in transmembrane glucose transport. So, a new blood glucose regulation system, effective in type 2 diabetes and its prediabetic phase, is based on variations in the acyl composition of phospholipids and operates independent of changes in insulin and glucose concentration. UI assessment is currently arising as a promising analytical technology for a membrane flexibility analysis. An increase in mitochondrial heat production plays a pivotal role in the existence of this regulation system.

Light absorbing properties of indocyanine green (ICG) in solution and after adsorption to the retinal surface — an ex-vivo approach

BACKGROUND: To evaluate potential differences in light absorbing properties and stability of indocyanine green (ICG) adsorbed to the retinal surface and of ICG dissolved in water and balanced salt solution. METHODS: The retina of four human donor eyes was prepared by removing the vitreous from the retinal surface. The inner surface of the specimen was covered with two to three drops of a 0.05% or 0.15% ICG solution respectively. After 1 min, the dye was removed by careful irrigation using BSS plus. The retinal specimens were then investigated by diffuse reflection spectroscopy (UV/VIS/NIR Spectrometer Lambda 900/Perkin Elmer equipped with a PELA-1020 integrating sphere accessory) and their absorption evaluated by the Kubelka-Munk function. To control the sensitivity of the setting, diffuse reflectance spectra of ICG adsorbed to a cellulose membrane and Al(2)O(3) were measured. For comparison, absorption spectra of ICG dissolved in water and BSS plus solution were measured in relation to ICG concentration and time using an UV/VIS/NIR Spectrometer Lambda 900/Perkin Elmer. RESULTS: On the retinal surface, absorption spectra exhibited a steep increase of absorption beginning at 620 nm, with a maximum at 736 nm (0.05%) and a shoulder at 745 (0.15%) and a second maximum at approximately 800 nm for both concentrations. Repeated measurement of the retinal surface 13 days after the ICG exposure revealed no changes in the position of the maxima as compared to the initial measurements. Light absorbing properties of ICG on cellulose or Al(2)O(3) are similar to those seen on the retinal surface with respect to the pattern and location of absorption maxima. In contrast, ICG dissolved in water or BSS plus disclosed variations in absorption characteristics depending on dye concentration, solute and time of measurement. CONCLUSIONS: Absorption characteristics and stability of ICG bound to the retinal surface could be of relevance when investigating potential pathomechanisms of ICG related toxicity, which might be related not only to intraoperative but also to postoperative light exposure of patients after intravitreal use of ICG.     

Increased glucose excursion in cystic fibrosis and its association with a worse clinical status

BACKGROUND: Abnormal glucose tolerance is a frequent co-morbidity in cystic fibrosis patients (CF), and is associated with a worse prognosis. The objectives are to investigate (a) the relative contribution of insulinopenia and insulin resistance (IR) for glucose tolerance and (b) the association between various glucose parameters and CF clinical status. METHODS: Oral glucose tolerance tests were performed in 114 consecutive CF patients not known to be diabetic as well as 14 controls similar for age and BMI. RESULTS: Abnormal glucose tolerance was found in 40% of patients with CF: 28% had impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) and 12% had new cystic fibrosis related diabetes (CFRD). Compared to control subjects, all CF patients were characterized by an increased glucose excursion (AUC). While reduced early insulin release characterised CF, IGT and CFRD patients also present IR thus both mechanisms significantly contribute to glucose tolerance abnormalities. Increased glucose AUC and reduced early insulin release but not glucose tolerance categories were associated with a reduced pulmonary function (FEV(1)). CONCLUSION: In CF, early insulin secretion defect but also IR contribute to glucose intolerance. Early in the course of the disease, increased glucose AUC and reduced early insulin secretion are more closely associated with a worse clinical status than conventional glucose tolerance categories.     

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.
