Recent studies have associated genetic variation near the interleukin 28B (IL28B/IFN‐λ3) gene with natural clearance of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, and a common variant in the DEP domain containing 5 (DEPDC5) locus on chromosome 22 has been shown to affect susceptibility to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in Japanese individuals with chronic HCV infection. This study was conducted to determine whether polymorphisms near or in interferon‐lambda (IFN‐λs) genes and their receptor genes such as interleukin 28 receptor, alpha (IL28RA) and interleukin 10 receptor, beta (IL10RB) as well as p21_activated kinases 4 (PAK4) and iron/zinc purple acid phosphatase‐like protein (PAPL), which are locate upstream of IFN‐λs, and lastly the DEPDC5 gene are associated with hepatitis B virus‐related liver disease in Han Chinese. The study subjects included 507 normal healthy controls, 350 individuals with natural clearance of HBV and 792 HBV‐infected patients. The patients were categorized into 157 inactive carriers (Case I), 216 active carriers (Case II), 111 cirrhotics (Case III) and 308 HCC patients (Case IV) subgroups. Seven single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were genotyped using the Matrix‐assisted Laser Desorption/Ionisation mass spectrometric (MALDI‐TOF MS) SNP genotyping assay. Rs423058 upstream of PAPL, rs2834167 in IL10RB and rs1012068 in DEPDC5 were associated with chronic HBV status, HBV natural clearance and the presence of HCC (P = 0.0004–0.024), respectively. PAPL, IL10RB and DEPDC5 polymorphisms have an impact on progression of HBV‐related liver disease. However, IFN‐λs genes as a tool to differentiate between different clinical courses of HBV infection were not useful in the Han Chinese population. 相似文献

Acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) in infants is an intractable cancer in childhood. Although recent intensive chemotherapy progress has considerably improved ALL treatment outcome, disease cure is often accompanied by undesirable long‐term side effects, and efficient, less toxic molecular targeting therapies have been anticipated. In infant ALL cells with KMT2A (MLL) fusion, the microRNA let‐7b (MIRLET7B) is significantly downregulated by DNA hypermethylation of its promoter region. We show here that the expression of HMGA2, one of the oncogenes repressed by MIRLET7B, is reversely upregulated in infant ALL leukaemic cells, particularly in KMT2A‐AFF1 (MLL‐AF4) positive ALL. In addition to the suppression of MIRLET7B, KMT2A fusion proteins positively regulate the expression of HMGA2. HMGA2 is one of the negative regulators of CDKN2A gene, which encodes the cyclin‐dependent kinase inhibitor p16INK4A. The HMGA2 inhibitor netropsin, when combined with demethylating agent 5‐azacytidine, upregulated and sustained the expression of CDKN2A, which resulted in growth suppression of KMT2A‐AFF1‐expressing cell lines. This effect was more apparent compared to treatment with 5‐azacytidine alone. These results indicate that the MIRLET7B‐HMGA2‐CDKN2A axis plays an important role in cell proliferation of leukaemic cells and could be a possible molecular target for the therapy of infant ALL with KMT2A‐AFF1. 相似文献

Aims/Introduction
Many patients with diabetes now use 5‐, 6‐ or 8‐mm needles for insulin injection. However, it is unclear whether needle length, particularly for shorter needles, affects the pharmacokinetic properties of insulin.Materials and Methods
This was a three‐way, randomized, cross‐over, single‐center study involving 12 healthy Japanese adult males (age 27.4 ± 4.14 years; weight 64.2 ± 5.2 kg; body fat percentage 18.2 ± 1.5%). Participants received a subcutaneous (abdomen) dose of insulin lispro (1.5 U for participants weighing 55 to <65.0 kg; 2.0 U for participants weighing 65.0 to <80.0 kg) delivered using a 32‐G × 4 mm (32G × 4), 31‐G × 8 mm (31G × 8) or 32‐G × 6 mm (32G × 6) needle with a 3–7‐day washout between doses. Pharmacokinetic parameters of exogenous insulin were identified using non‐linear least squares, where the total insulin concentration was fit to the measured plasma insulin concentration using an overall combined model that accounted for C‐peptide/insulin secretion in addition to the injected dose.Results
Maximum concentration and area under the curve for 0 to infinity min for insulin were bioequivalent for the 32G × 4 needle relative to the 32G × 6 and the 31G × 8 needles. The time to the maximum insulin concentration was bioequivalent for the 32G × 4 needle relative to the 32G × 6 needle, but not the 31G × 8 needle.Conclusions
The use of 4‐mm needles is unlikely to change the pharmacokinetic properties of insulin when injected subcutaneously in adults. This trial was registered with UMIN‐CTR (no. UMIN000004469). 相似文献5.

Genetic variation in the IL‐28B (interleukin‐28B; interferon lambda 3) region has been associated with sustained virological response (SVR) rates in patients with chronic hepatitis C treated with peginterferon‐α and ribavirin. However, the mechanisms by which polymorphisms in the IL‐28B gene region affect host antiviral responses are not well understood. Using the HCV 1b and 2a replicon system, we compared the effects of IFN‐λs and IFN‐α on HCV RNA replication. The anti‐HCV effect of IFN‐λ3 and IFN‐α in combination was also assessed. Changes in gene expression induced by IFN‐λ3 and IFN‐α were compared using cDNA microarray analysis. IFN‐λs at concentrations of 1 ng/mL or more exhibited concentration‐ and time‐dependent HCV inhibition. In combination, IFN‐λ3 and IFN‐α had a synergistic anti‐HCV effect; however , no synergistic enhancement was observed for interferon‐stimulated response element (ISRE) activity or upregulation of interferon ‐ stimulated genes (ISGs). With respect to the time course of ISG upregulation, the peak of IFN‐λ3‐induced gene expression occurred later and lasted longer than that induced by IFN‐α. In addition, although the genes upregulated by IFN‐α and IFN‐λ3 were similar to microarray analysis, interferon‐stimulated gene expression appeared early and was prolonged by combined administration of these two IFNs. In conclusion, IFN‐α and IFN‐λ3 in combination showed synergistic anti‐HCV activity in vitro. Differences in time‐dependent upregulation of these genes might contribute to the synergistic antiviral activity. 相似文献

The study included 1848 diffuse large B‐cell lymphoma (DLBCL )patients treated with chemotherapy/rituximab. The aims were to validate the National Comprehensive Cancer Network International Prognostic Index (NCCN ‐IPI ) and explore the effect of adding high Beta‐2 microglobulin (β2M), primary extranodal presentation and intense treatment to the NCCN ‐IPI variables in order to develop an improved index. Comparing survival curves, NCCN ‐IPI discriminated better than IPI , separating four risk groups with 5‐year overall survival rates of 93%, 83%, 67% and 49%, but failing to identify a true high‐risk population. For the second aim the series was split into training and validation cohorts: in the former the multivariate model identified age, lactate dehydrogenase, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status, Stage III ‐IV , and β2M as independently significant, whereas the NCCN ‐IPI ‐selected extranodal sites, primary extranodal presentation and intense treatments were not. These results were confirmed in the validation cohort. The Grupo Español de Linfomas/Trasplante de Médula ósea (GELTAMO )‐IPI developed here, with 7 points, significantly separated four risk groups (0, 1–3, 4 or ≥5 points) with 11%, 58%, 17% and 14% of patients, and 5‐year overall survival rates of 93%, 79%, 66% and 39%, respectively. In the comparison GELTAMO IPI discriminated better than the NCCN ‐IPI . In conclusion, GELTAMO ‐IPI is more accurate than the NCCN ‐IPI and has statistical and practical advantages in that the better discrimination identifies an authentic high‐risk group and is not influenced by primary extranodal presentation or treatments of different intensity. 相似文献

Aims/Introduction
This cohort study of middle‐aged Japanese participants investigated the relationship between family history of diabetes, the incident risk of type 2 diabetes and the interaction of these variables with other factors.Materials and Methods
Study participants were 3,517 employees (2,037 men and 1,480 women) of a metal products factory in Japan. Baseline health examinations included questions about medical history, physical examination, anthropometric measurements, questions about lifestyle factors, such as smoking, alcohol consumption and habitual exercise, and a self‐administered diet history questionnaire. Family history of diabetes was defined as having at least one‐first‐degree relative with diabetes. The incidence of diabetes was determined in annual medical examinations over a 7‐year period. Hazard ratios (HRs) for type 2 diabetes were estimated by Cox proportional hazards analysis.Results
Of the 3,517 participants, 630 (18%) had a family history of diabetes mellitus. During the study, 228 participants developed diabetes. The age and sex‐adjusted HR for type 2 diabetes in participants with a family history of diabetes was 1.82 (95% confidence interval 1.36–2.43) as compared with those without a family history of diabetes. HRs did not change after adjustment for body mass index and lifestyle factors. We found no interactions with body mass index, insulin resistance, pancreatic β‐cell function or lifestyle factors.Conclusions
Family history of diabetes was associated with the incident risk of diabetes, and these associations were independent of other risk factors, such as obesity, insulin resistance, and lifestyle factors in Japanese men and women. 相似文献10.
