OBJECTIVE: To study the changes and clinical implication of leukotriene B(4) (LTB(4)) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) in exhaled breath condensate (EBC) of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients. METHODS: EBC of 20 patients in acute episode of COPD (AECOPD), 20 patients in period of remission of COPD, and 20 persons who were having regular check-up (healthy control group) were enrolled. The concentrations of LTB(4) and TNF-alpha in EBC were assayed. Forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) and peak expiratory flow (PEF) of COPD patients were observed at the same time, pH, oxygenation index (PaO(2)/FiO(2)), partial pressure of oxygen in arterial blood (PaO(2)) and leukocyte count were also determined. RESULTS: (1)The concentrations of LTB(4) in EBC of AECOPD (35.43+/-14.19)ng/L and remission of COPD(24.39+/-13.75)ng/L, were significantly higher than that of the healthy control group (16.75+/-7.44)ng/L, and the concentration of LTB(4) in EBC during remission of COPD was significantly lower than that of AECOPD (all P<0.05). (2)The concentration of TNF-alpha in EBC of AECOPD (9.35+/-8.66) ng/L was significantly higher than that of remission of COPD (4.42+/-4.11)ng/L and healthy control group (4.45+/-3.92) ng/L, and the differences had statistical significance (both P<0.05). The concentration of TNF-alpha in EBC showed no significant difference between patients in remission of COPD and healthy control group. (3)The concentration of LTB(4) in EBC had negative correlation with FEV1 of AECOPD patients. Regression equation was y=-0.51x+0.22, r=-0.481 (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: The concentrations of LTB4 and TNF-alpha in EBC of AECOPD patients are raised when oxidation stress is reinforced, and its level reflects the severity and prognosis of COPD.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To investigate plasma glutathione peroxidase concentration, glutathione peroxidase activity, plasma selenium and oxidative stress in acute severe asthma. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The study was case-control in design, with cases presenting to the emergency department with acute severe asthma and controls randomly selected from a larger cross-sectional study. Plasma malondialdehyde (MDA) was used as a measure of oxidative stress and plasma selenium was measured using ICP-MS. Glutathione peroxidase (GPx) activity was analysed using a colorimetric GPx assay and plasma GPx level was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). RESULTS: Fifteen cases [mean (range) predicted peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR) of 43% (20-69)] and 15 matched controls were recruited. MDA levels (mean+/-SD) were higher in acute asthma subjects (1.30+/-0.56 micromol/L) than in controls (0.86+/-0.53 micromol/L; p<0.05). There were no differences between cases and controls for selenium (99+/-34 microg/L versus 109+/-17 microg/L) or for GPx activity (39+/-25 nmol min(-1) mL(-1) versus 38+/-24 nmol min(-1) mL(-1)), however, GPx plasma levels measured by ELISA were higher in cases than controls (22.5+/-10.8 mg/L versus 13.8+/-7.3 mg/L; p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Patients with acute severe asthma demonstrated increased MDA levels but no differences in plasma selenium levels or GPx activity. GPx levels measured by ELISA were elevated in severe asthma. These results are consistent with an adaptive up-regulation of GPx to protect against oxidative stress.  相似文献

The effect of fish oil and n-3 eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) on intracellular free calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) and thromboxane B2 (TXB2) formation in resting and stimulated cultured rat vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) was examined. In resting control cells [Ca2+]i was 147 +/- 15 nmol l-1 (mean +/- SEM, n = 4). After pretreatment of the cells with fish oil or EPA for 24 days the resting [Ca2+]i was decreased to 126 +/- 10 nmol l-1 and 84 +/- 8 nmol-1, respectively. After stimulation of untreated control cells with either 100 nmol l-1 angiotensin II (AII), 40 micrograms ml-1 low-density lipoprotein (LDL), or 100 ng ml-1 of recombinant platelet-derived growth factor (PDGFAB), [Ca2+]i was (in nmol l-1) 306 +/- 31, 217 +/- 25 and 213 +/- 16. Treatment of cells with fish oil or EPA reduced the stimulatory effect of the agonists, and the following [Ca2+]i values (in nmol l-1) were found: 199 +/- 21, 131 +/- 10, 148 +/- 13; and 175 +/- 11, 98 +/- 12, and 103 +/- 6, respectively. PDGFAB induced a four fold increase in TXB2-generation (270 +/- 28 pg mg-1 cell protein compared with 61 +/- 8.2 pg mg-1 in unstimulated control cells) within 6 min. In cells pretreated with fish oil or EPA, TXB2-formation was reduced by 54% and 44%, respectively. In conclusion: in rat VSMC stimulated by a variety of vasoactive agonist, fish oil and EPA can markedly attenuate intracellular mechanisms related to changes of cytosolic calcium concentration and eicosanoid production.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

OBJECTIVES: In this study, the effect of enalapril (E) and/or losartan (L) on lipid peroxidation (LPO) is studied in renal transplant recipients (RTRs) with regard to polymorphisms of renin-angiotensin system (RAS). DESIGN AND METHODS: After determination of genotypes of the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE I/D), angiotensinogen (AGT M235T) and angiotensin II type 1 receptor (ATR1 A1166C) by PCR, sixty-four RTRs recruited to four groups randomly: first (13 patients) and second (20 patients) groups were treated with enalapril (E(+): 10 mg/day) and losartan (L(+): 50 mg/day) alone for 2 months, respectively. After 2 weeks as washout period, E group changed to L and vice versa as a cross-over design and they were treated for another 2 months. The third group (13 patients) as positive control received enalapril+losartan (E(+)L(+): 10 mg/day+50 mg/day) for 16 weeks, and the forth group (18 patients) as negative control received no medication (E(-)L(-)). Malondialdehyde (MDA) as LPO marker was measured before and after treatment. In this study, P<0.05 was considered significant. RESULTS: After 2 months of treatment, MDA level significantly decreased in all of the groups except the E(-)L(-). MDA level in pre- vs. post-intervention for the E(+)L(+), E(+), L(+) and E(-)L(-) groups were as follows: 5.81+/-2.13 nmol/mL vs. 1.61+/-0.80 nmol/mL (P=0.001), 5.10+/-2.05 nmol/mL vs. 1.68+/-1.01 nmol/mL (P=0.003), 5.20+/-1.61 nmol/mL vs. 1.22+/-0.27 nmol/mL (P=0.000) and 5.27+/-2.12 nmol/mL vs. 5.07+/-2.03 nmol/mL (P=0.52), respectively. Also, the same results were found in the end of 16th week. Although patients with DD genotype of ACE had higher MDA (P=0.01) levels, RAS polymorphisms could not predict the antioxidative response rate to the drugs (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS: E and/or L reduce MDA regardless of the RAS genotypes.  相似文献

1. The intracellular free calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) in washed human platelets was measured using the fluorescent indicator, fura-2, in a cross-sectional study of 36 normotensive, primigravid volunteers, 12 in each trimester of pregnancy and a further 12 at 6 weeks post partum. The results were compared with those obtained from 30 normal female volunteers not using oral contraception. 2. The mean basal [Ca2+]i in the platelets of the pregnant women in the first two trimesters (115.6 +/- 6.7 and 120.1 +/- 5.7 nmol/l, respectively) was not shown to differ significantly from that of normal non-pregnant volunteers (112.3 +/- 2.9 nmol/l). However, during the third trimester a significant increase in [Ca2+]i was noted (134.0 +/- 4.9 nmol/l; P less than 0.05), with a return to normal values in the post-partum period (108.2 +/- 6.1 nmol/l). 3. [Ca2+]i was also measured in the platelets of a group of 12 primigravid pregnant women in the third trimester whose pregnancies were complicated by gestational hypertension (pregnancy-induced hypertension and pre-eclampsia). A significant rise in basal [Ca2+]i was noted in the platelets of primigravidae whose pregnancies were complicated by pre-eclampsia (163.6 +/- 8.8 nmol/l) as compared with normotensive, third-trimester primigravidae (P less than 0.02). However, no correlation could be demonstrated between [Ca2+]i and systemic blood pressure.  相似文献
