Synthetic/secreting and apoptotic phenotypes in renal biopsy tissues from hypertensive nephrosclerosis patients.

The major glomerular abnormalities in hypertensive nephrosclerosis are described as glomerular obsolescence (GO), glomerulosclerosis (GS), and glomerular collapse (GC). However, glomerular cellular changes caused by hypertensive insults have not been well analyzed. Using an immunoenzyme method, we examined eleven biopsy samples from patients with hypertensive nephrosclerosis for two synthetic and secreting phenotypes, a-smooth muscle actin (alpha-SMA) and collagen type III (Col. III), and two apoptotic phenotypes, pro-apoptotic molecule Bax and anti-apoptotic molecule BcI-2. Together with the glomerular and vascular changes and interstitial fibrosis (IF) area, the results were scored quantitatively and semi-quantitatively and compared to the clinical findings, which included systolic blood pressure (SBP), mean arterial pressure (MAP), serum creatinine levels (sCr) and creatinine clearance (Ccr), using univariate and multivariate analyses. As a result, GS was frequently observed in the mild-to-moderate hypertensive group (140 < or = SBP<180 mmHg), whereas GC was positively correlated with SBP. Furthermore, there was a positive correlation of GS with mesangial alpha-SMA and Col. III, suggesting that GS was the reflection of these synthetic and secreting phenotypic changes in mesangial cells. Endothelial Bax was positively correlated with Ccr (p<0.01); in contrast, podocytic Bax was positively correlated with sCr (p<0.05) and showed a tendency to correlate with MAP (p=0.054). In conclusion, these findings support the view that mesangial synthetic and secreting phenotypic changes may be a reflection of cellular activation caused by mild-to-moderate hypertension and that apoptotic phenotypic expression in podocytes, rather than endothelial cells, may be related to the development of a severe form of hypertensive nephrosclerosis.     

多发性硬化患者血清尿酸水平变化的研究

目的　探讨多发性硬化 (MS)患者血清尿酸 (UA)水平的变化及其临床意义。方法　采用酶定量分析法对 4 3例MS患者和 4 5名正常对照者的血清UA水平进行检测。结果　MS组血清UA水平明显低于对照组 (P <0 0 1)。MS组中病程越长 (P <0 0 1)、神经伤残程度越重 (DSS评分越高 ) (P <0 0 5 ) ,血清UA水平越低 ;女性患者UA水平明显低于男性患者 (P <0 0 0 1) ;经过糖皮质激素治疗后血清UA水平明显回升 (P <0 0 0 1) ,但治疗前血清UA水平越低则疗效越差 (P <0 0 1、P <0 0 5 )。结论　MS患者血清UA水平降低 ,且与MS的病程、伤残程度、疗效及性别密切相关。UA水平升高可能为激素治疗MS的一个作用机制     

Angiopoietin1/Tie2 and VEGF/Flk1 induced by MSC treatment amplifies angiogenesis and vascular stabilization after stroke.

Bone marrow stromal cells (MSCs) increase vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) expression and promote angiogenesis after stroke. Angiopoietin-1 (Ang1) and its receptor Tie2 mediate vascular integrity and angiogenesis as does VEGF and its receptors. In this study, we tested whether MSC treatment of stroke increases Ang1/Tie2 expression, and whether Ang1/Tie2 with VEGF/ vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2) (Flk1), in combination, induced by MSCs enhances angiogenesis and vascular integrity. Male Wistar rats were subjected to middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAo) and treated with or without MSCs. Marrow stromal cell treatment significantly decreased blood-brain barrier (BBB) leakage and increased Ang1, Tie2, and occludin (a tight junction protein) expression in the ischemic border compared with MCAo control. To further test the mechanisms of MSC-induced angiogenesis and vascular stabilization, cocultures of MSCs with mouse brain endothelial cells (MBECs) or astrocytes were performed. Supernatant derived from MSCs cocultured with MBECs significantly increased MBEC expression of Ang1/Tie2 and Flk1 compared with MBEC alone. Marrow stromal cells cocultured with astrocytes also significantly increased astrocyte VEGF and Ang1/Tie2 expression compared with astrocyte culture alone. Conditioned media from MSCs alone, and media from cocultures of MSCs with astrocytes or MBECs, all significantly increased capillary tube-like formation of MBEC compared with control Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium media. Inhibition of Flk1 and/or Ang1 significantly decreased MSC-induced MBEC tube formation. Knockdown of Tie2 expression in MBECs significantly inhibited MSC-induced tube formation. Our data indicate MSC treatment of stroke promotes angiogenesis and vascular stabilization, which is at least partially mediated by VEGF/Flk1 and Ang1/Tie2.     

The upregulation of glial glutamate transporter-1 participates in the induction of brain ischemic tolerance in rats.

Glial glutamate transporter-1 (GLT-1) plays an essential role in removing glutamate from the extracellular space and maintaining the glutamate below neurotoxic level in the brain. To explore whether GLT-1 plays a role in the acquisition of brain ischemic tolerance (BIT) induced by cerebral ischemic preconditioning (CIP), the present study was undertaken to observe in vivo changes in the expression of GLT-1 and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) in the CA1 hippocampus during the induction of BIT, and the effect of dihydrokainate (DHK), an inhibitor of GLT-1, on the acquisition of BIT in rats. Immunohistochemistry for GFAP showed that the processes of astrocytes were prolonged after a CIP 2 days before the lethal ischemic insult, which could protect pyramidal neurons in the CA1 hippocampus against delayed neuronal death induced normally by lethal ischemic insult. The prolonged processes extended into the area between the pyramidal neurons and tightly surrounded them. These changes made the pyramidal layer look like a 'shape grid'. Simultaneously, the prolonged and extended processes showed a great deal of GLT-1. Western blotting analysis showed significant upregulation of GLT-1 expression after the CIP, especially when it was administered 2 days before the subsequent lethal ischemic insult. Neuropathological evaluation by thionin staining showed that DHK dose-dependently blocked the protective role of CIP against delayed neuronal death induced normally by lethal brain ischemia. It might be concluded that the surrounding of pyramidal neurons by astrocytes and upregulation of GLT-1 induced by CIP played an important role in the acquisition of the BIT induced by CIP.

The impact of obesity on female reproductive function

Obesity may be described as the new worldwide epidemic, and its serious impact on morbidity and mortality are well known. As more and more women become obese, the reproductive problems associated with obesity present an ever-growing challenge to physicians involved in their fertility care. The spectrum of reproductive problems associated with obesity encompasses a wide range of disorders including infertility problems, miscarriage and pregnancy complications. In this review, we aim to discuss the impact of obesity on the various aspects of female reproductive function with focus on the clinical aspects of fertility problems in obese women. We finally comment on the available therapeutic options available to this group of women.
