Investigation into the effects of two different dietary proteins, casein and soya, fed at isonitrogenous and isocaloric levels, upon renal function, plasma amino acids and serum lipids, in normal and subtotally nephrectomized rats was undertaken. Groups 1 (24% casein, n = 10) and 2 (24% soya, n = 10) were maintained upon the diets for a 10-week period following subtotal nephrectomy, whilst groups 3 (24% casein, n = 6) and 4 (24% soya, n = 5) served as normal controls. Determination of glomerular filtration rate (GFR), effective renal plasma flow (ERPF) and histological analysis were undertaken at the end of the study. Serum lipids and plasma amino acids were determined in subtotally nephrectomized rats (group 5, 24% casein, n = 11: group 6, 24% soya, n = 12) 12 weeks following reduction in renal mass, and serum lipids determined in normal control animals (group 7, 24% casein, n = 10: group 8, 24% soya, n = 10). The glomerular filtration rate and ERPF in normal animals fed casein were significantly greater than those fed soya (P less than 0.01). Survival, proteinuria, renal histological damage and blood urea when killed were all significantly worse in subtotally nephrectomized animals fed casein. Serum cholesterol of groups 5 and 7 fed casein were significantly higher than groups 6 and 8 (P less than 0.05), whilst a significant reduction in serum triglyceride was found for group 6 (P less than 0.001). Plasma amino acids, and essential amino acid ratios of subtotally nephrectomized rats were equivalent, with the exception of plasma glycine (P less than 0.05). 相似文献

The failure of certain adrenal tumors to respond to ACTH was investigated in vivo be administration of corticotropin-(1-24)-tetracosapeptide (ACTH1-24) and dexamethasone and in vitro by studying the binding properties of ACTH1-24 and prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) and their effect on adenylate cyclase activity of the tumors' crude membranes; in addition, in five cases the stimulation of cortisol production in isolated adrenal cells by both hormones and dibuttyryl cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cAMP) was also studied. The results obtained in 13 hormone-producing tumors of the human adrenal cortex, i.e. 10 carcinomas and 3 adenomas, were compared with those found in normal human adrenal glands. According to the adenylate cyclase responses to ACTH1-24 and PGE1, the tumors fall into different categories. In the first group are six rumors in which the adenylate cyclase was stimulated by both ACTH1-24 and PGE; in addition specific binding could be demonstrated for the two hormones in all six. The binding affinity for 125I-ACTH1-24 was found to be about 10 times higher than that for 125I-ACTH11-24. In the one tumor in which the experiment was performed, bound 125I-ACTH1-24 was displaced by ACTH1-10. These results are similar to the ones found in normal human adrenal preparations. For two rumors of the group in which ACTH did not increase steroidogenesis in vivo, the biochemical abnormality might be located beyond cAMP formation. A second group encompasses six tumors in which the steroidogenesis in vivo and the adenylate cyclase activity were insensitive to ACTH1-24 but in which the enzyme was stimulated by PGE1 and NaF. However, these preparations bound 125I-ACTH1-24 and 125I-ACTH11-24, the binding affinity being similar for both peptides but 10 times lower than the one found in normal adrenal cortex for 125I-ACTH1-24. In the only case of this group where it was tested, ACTH1-10 did not displace bound 125I-ACTH1-24. This result strongly suggests the possibility of a modification or a loss of the receptor site that binds the N-terminal sequency (1-10) of ACTH, the biologically active part of the molecule. In the last tumor, both PGE1 and ACTH were unable to stimulate adenylate cyclase activity and steroid production in a preparation of isolated adrenal cells, although steroidogenesis was stimulated by dibutyryl though steroidogenesis was stimulated by dibutyryl cAMP. No specific binding for PGE1 could be demonstrated. However, 125I-ACTH1-24 and 125I-ACTH11-24 were found to be bound to the tumor with the same affinity. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: The presence of an enhanced cortisol secretion in patients with type 2 diabetes is debated. In type 2 diabetic subjects, cortisol secretion was found to be associated with the complications and metabolic control of diabetes. We evaluated cortisol secretion in 170 type 2 diabetic subjects and in 71 sex-, age-, and BMI-matched nondiabetic subjects. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: In all subjects, we evaluated ACTH at 8:00 a.m. in basal conditions and serum cortisol levels at 12:00 p.m. (F24) and at 9:00 a.m. after a 1-mg overnight dexamethasone suppression test and 24-h urinary free cortisol (UFC). In diabetic patients, we evaluated the presence of chronic complications (incipient nephropathy, asymptomatic neuropathy, background retinopathy, and silent macroangiopathy). Patients were subdivided according to the absence (group 1, n = 53) or presence (group 2, n = 117) of diabetes complications. RESULTS: In group 2, UFC (125.2 +/- 4.6 nmol/24 h) and F24 (120.6 +/- 4.1 nmol/l) were higher than in group 1 (109.2 +/- 6.8 nmol/24 h, P = 0.057, and 99.7 +/- 6.1 nmol/l, P = 0.005, respectively) and in nondiabetic patients (101.7 +/- 5.9 nmol/24 h, P = 0.002, and 100.3 +/- 5.3 nmol/l, P = 0.003, respectively). In diabetic patients, the number of complications was associated with F24 (R = 0.345; P < 0.0001) and diabetes duration (R = 0.39; P < 0.0001). Logistic regression analysis showed that the presence of diabetes complications was significantly associated with F24, sex, duration of diabetes, and glycated hemoglobin. CONCLUSIONS: In type 2 diabetic subjects, hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal activity is enhanced in patients with diabetes complications and the degree of cortisol secretion is related to the presence and number of diabetes complications. 相似文献

目的:探讨大鼠脑梗死后急性期肾上腺皮质功能的改变以及地塞米松的干预作用。方法健康雄性SD大鼠60只,随机分为假手术组(对照组)、模型加生理盐水组(安慰剂组)和模型加地塞米松组(治疗组),每组20只。采用改进的线栓法建立大鼠脑缺血模型。治疗组应用小剂量地塞米松(0.8 mg/kg)替代治疗。各组分别于脑损伤后第3、12、24、72 h 4个时间点进行观察。给予小剂量促肾上腺皮质激素(ACTH)行刺激试验,应用ELISA法测定血清皮质酮(CORT)和ACTH含量。结果安慰剂组大鼠脑损伤后3 h外周血CORT和ACTH均明显高于对照组(P<0.01),随后逐渐降低,72 h又有升高趋势;各时间点ACTH刺激后CORT上升值均低于对照组(P<0.05或P<0.01)。治疗组伤后所有时间点CORT均高于安慰剂组(P<0.01或P<0.05),ACTH仅24 h高于安慰剂组(P<0.05);各时间点ACTH刺激后CORT上升值均高于安慰剂组(P<0.05或P<0.01)。结论大鼠脑梗死急性期即存在肾上腺皮质功能不全,随着时间推移,肾上腺储备功能下降,对ACTH反应程度降低。小剂量短疗程肾上腺糖皮质激素可增强肾上腺皮质对ACTH刺激的敏感性。 相似文献

ABSTRACT: INTRODUCTION: This study was aimed at characterizing basal and adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH)-induced steroidogenesis in sepsis and nonsepsis patients with a suspicion of critical illness-related corticosteroid insufficiency (CIRCI), taking the use of etomidate-inhibiting 11β-hydroxylase into account. METHOD: This was a prospective study in a mixed surgical/medical intensive care unit (ICU) of a university hospital. The patients were 62 critically ill patients with a clinical suspicion of CIRCI. The patients underwent a 250-μg ACTH test (n = 67). ACTH, adrenal steroids, substrates, and precursors (modified tandem mass spectrometry) also were measured. Clinical characteristics including use of etomidate to facilitate intubation (n = 14 within 72 hours of ACTH testing) were recorded. RESULTS: At the time of ACTH testing, patients had septic (n = 43) or nonseptic critical illness (n = 24). Baseline cortisol directly related to sepsis and endogenous ACTH, independent of etomidate use. Etomidate was associated with a lower baseline cortisol and cortisol/11β-deoxycortisol ratio as well as higher 11β-deoxycortisol, reflecting greater 11β-hydroxylase inhibition in nonsepsis than in sepsis. Cortisol increases < 250 mM in exogenous ACTH were associated with relatively low baseline (HDL-) cholesterol, and high endogenous ACTH with low cortisol/ACTH ratio, independent of etomidate. Although cortisol increases with exogenous ACTH, levels were lower in sepsis than in nonsepsis patients, and etomidate was associated with diminished increases in cortisol with exogenous ACTH, so that its use increased, albeit nonsignificantly, low cortisol increases to exogenous ACTH from 38% to 57%, in both conditions. CONCLUSIONS: A single dose of etomidate may attenuate stimulated more than basal cortisol synthesis. However, it may only partly contribute, particularly in the stressed sepsis patient, to the adrenal dysfunction of CIRCI, in addition to substrate deficiency. 相似文献

Adrenal glands from early, mid, and late fetuses of rabbit, guinea pig, and rat, and from newborn animals of each species, were incubated for 1-4 h with and without 0.1 nM-1 microM ACTH, alpha- or beta-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (alpha MSH or beta MSH). The effects of the peptides were measured on production of glucocorticoids, and on incorporation of labeled thymidine or leucine into DNA or protein, respectively. The findings were similar in all three species. ACTH stimulated synthesis of glucocorticoids throughout fetal life. Potency increased progressively, as reflected by declining minimal effective dose and rising maximal response. In early and mid fetus alpha MSH and beta MSH caused a modest glucocorticoid steroidogenic effect. ACTH and alpha MSH stimulated DNA and protein synthesis in the early and mid fetal gland. alpha MSH was more potent than ACTH in these respects, minimal effective dose being generally 10 times less and maximal response 25-200% greater. The effects diminished or disappeared in the late fetal and newborn gland. These data indicate that alpha- and beta MSH possess steroidogenic or growth-promoting properties, or both, for the fetal adrenal gland. 相似文献
