Foreign metallothionein-I expression by transient transfection in MT-I and MT-II null astrocytes confers increased protection against acute methylmercury cytotoxicity

The mechanisms associated with metallothionein (MT) gene regulation are complex and poorly understood. Only a modest increase in brain MT expression levels is attained by exposure to metals, MT gene transfection, and MT gene knock-in techniques. Accordingly, in the present study, MT null astrocytes isolated from transgenic mice deficient in MT-I and MT-II genes were introduced as a zero background model of MT expression. MT protein levels were determined by western blot analysis. MT proteins in MT-I and MT-II null astrocytes were undetectable. Transient MT-I gene transfection increased the levels of foreign MT expression in MT-I and MT-II null astrocytes by 2.3-fold above basal levels in wild-type astrocytes. Intracellular Na(2)51CrO(4) efflux and D-[2,3-3H]aspartate uptake were studied as indices of acute methylmercury (MeHg) (5 microM) cytotoxicity. In MT-I and MT-II knockout astrocytes MeHg led to significant (p<0.01) increase in Na(2)51CrO(4) efflux and a significant (p<0.05) decrease in the initial rate (1 min) of D-[2, 3-3H]aspartate uptake compared to MT-I and MT-II knockout controls. Transfection of the MT-I gene in MT-I and MT-II null mice significantly (p<0.01) decreased the effect of MeHg on Na(2)51CrO(4) efflux in MT null, as well as wild-type astrocytes. MT-I gene transfection in MT-I and MT-II null astrocytes reversed the inhibitory effect of MeHg on D-[2,3-3H]aspartate uptake, such that initial rates of uptake in MT-I transfected cells in the presence and absence of MeHg (5 microM) were indistinguishable. These results demonstrate that: (1) astrocytes lacking MTs are more sensitive to MeHg than those with basal MT protein levels, (2) the MT-I gene can be overexpressed in MT-I and MT-II null astrocytes by transient MT-I gene transfection, and (3) that foreign MT expression endows astrocytes with increased resistance to MeHg.

Psychometric evaluation of the Taiwan version of the Disability of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand (DASH) questionnaire.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: To adapt the Taiwan version of the Disability of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand (DASH) questionnaire and evaluate its psychometric properties. METHODS: The DASH questionnaire was adapted through the process of translation, back-translation, and expert review. Eighty two subjects with upper extremity disorders were recruited in a medical center and 46 of these patients could be followed up to assess retest reliability in less than 10 days. Cronbach alpha and intraclass correlation coefficient were used to evaluate the internal consistency and test-retest reliability. Principal axis factor analysis was performed to assess the factor-construct validity, while concurrent validity was tested with the Medical Outcomes Study Short Form-36 (SF-36) Taiwan version questionnaire. RESULTS: The internal consistency of the Taiwan version of the DASH questionnaire was high (Cronbach alpha = 0.96) and the test-retest reliability was satisfactory (intraclass correlation coefficient = 0.9). Principal axis factor analysis confirmed the 1-factor model. The Pearson correlation coefficients of the DASH questionnaire to the SF-36 showed a correlation with physical component summary scores rather than mental component summary scores. Bodily pain, physical function and role-physical scores among the SF-36 subscales were most significantly correlated with DASH disability/symptom scores. CONCLUSION: The Taiwan version of the DASH questionnaire is a valid and reliable measure of health status for patients with upper-extremity disorders.

Effects of kadsurenone on the systemic inflammatory response in rat model of acute pancreatitis

Objective： To study the effects of kadsurenone on inflammatory mediators Platelet-activating factor （PAF）, tumor necrosis factor-α（TNF-α） and interleukin-6（IL-6） in rat model of acute pancreatitis（AP）. Methods： SD male rats （104） were randomly divided into sham group （n = 24）, AP group （n = 40） and kadsurenone group （n = 40）. The rats were killed 3, 6, 12 and 24 hours after operation. The serum level of PAF, TNF-α and IL-6 was measured. Results： The serum level of PAF, TNF-α and IL-6 of AP group was significantly increased（P 〈 0.01 ）compared with control group. The serum level of TNF-α got to a peak 6 hours after operation, and the serum IL-6 getting to a peak 12 hours after operation in AP group. After kadsurenone was administered to AP rats, pancreas and lung myeloperoxidase （MPO）, serum amylase activity was reduced. Histology showed a trend toward improvement. The serum level of PAF, TNF-α and IL-6 was significantly decreased （P 〈 0.05）. Conclusion. Kadsurenone can reduce the severity of systemic inflammation in rats with AP and relieve the damage of the pancreas and lung in AP rats. These results suggested that kadsurenone may be useful in the treatment of acute pancreatitis.

Membrane phospholipid abnormalities in postmortem brains from schizophrenic patients

Previous studies in schizophrenia have shown alterations in membrane phospholipids and polyunsaturated fatty acids. However, these studies have primarily examined peripheral (non-neuronal) cell types. The purpose of the present study was to examine whether the membrane deficits seen in peripheral tissues are also observed in the brain. The caudate was the primary region of interest for this study. Using high-pressure liquid chromatography in conjunction with an evaporative light-scattering detector, we first measured the level of various membrane phospholipids (PL) in schizophrenic (n=11) and control groups with (n=7) and without (n=14) other mental disorders. Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) were then determined by capillary gas chromatography. Within groups, there are no significant correlations between membrane PL levels and other collection and demographic parameters including age, postmortem interval, storage time and brain weight. Significantly lower amounts of phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine were found in postmortem brain tissue from schizophrenic patients than in those from control groups, even after accounting for potential confounds. In addition, strong reductions of total PUFAs and saturated fatty acids were found in schizophrenic brains, relative to control brains. Specifically, the reduced PUFAs were largely attributable to decreases in arachidonic acid (AA) and, to a lesser extent, its precursors, linoleic and eicosadienoic acids. There are no significant differences between the control groups with and without other mental disorders. The present findings suggest that deficits identified in peripheral membranes may also be present in the brain from schizophrenic patients. Such a deficit in membrane AA may contribute to the many biological, physiological, and clinical phenomena observed in schizophrenia.
