High pregnancy rates and reproductive health indicators among female injection-drug users in Vancouver, Canada.

OBJECTIVE: To determine the incidence of pregnancy among active injection-drug users and to identify factors associated with becoming pregnant. METHODS: The Vancouver Injection Drug User Study (VIDUS) is a prospective cohort study that began in 1996. Women who had completed a baseline and at least one follow-up questionnaire between June 1996 and January 2002 were included in the study. Parametric and non-parametric methods were used to compare characteristics of women who reported pregnancy over the study period with those who did not over the same time period. RESULTS: A total of 104 women reported a primary pregnancy over the study period. The incidence of pregnancy over the follow-up period was 6.46 (95% confidence interval (CI) 5.24-7.87) per 100 person-years. The average age of women who reported pregnancy was younger than that of women who did not report pregnancy (27 vs. 32 years, p < 0.001). Women of Aboriginal ethnicity were more likely to report pregnancy (odds ratio 1.6, 95% CI 1.0-2.5). Comparison of drug use showed no significant differences in pregnancy rate with respect to the use of heroin, cocaine or crack (p > 0.05). In examining sexual behavior, women who reported having had a regular partner in the previous 6 months were three times more likely to have reported pregnancy. Despite the fact that 67% of women in this study reported using some form of contraception, the use of reliable birth control was low. Only 5% of women in our study reported the use of hormonal contraceptives. CONCLUSION: There were a high number of pregnancies among high-risk women in this cohort. This corresponded with very low uptake of reliable contraception. Innovative strategies to provide reproductive health services to at-risk women who are injecting drugs is a public health priority.

Benefit and risk of exercise on myocardial function in diabetes.

Regular physical activity promotes cardiorespiratory fitness and has been considered a cornerstone for non-pharmacological treatment of more than 17 million Americans with diabetes mellitus. Physical exercise has been shown to positively affect certain cardiovascular risk factors such as insulin resistance, glucose metabolism, blood pressure and body fat composition, which are closely associated with diabetes and heart disease. With the increasingly sedentary life style in our society, routine daily exercise of moderate intensity is highly recommended to reduce cardiovascular risk, the leading cause of death in diabetic patients. Exercise produces many beneficial effects to the heart function such as reduced incidence of coronary heart disease, attenuated severity of diabetic cardiomyopathy, improved cardiac performance, cardiac reserve and autonomic regulation. Nevertheless, many diabetic patients do not appear to gain much benefit from exercise or may even be at risk of performing physical exercise. This review summarizes the benefit and risk of exercise on diabetic heart function, with a special emphasis on myocardial and autonomic function.     

In vivo antioxidant activity of polysaccharide fraction from Porphyra haitanesis (Rhodephyta) in aging mice.

Sulfated polysaccharide fraction F2 from Porphyra haitanesis (Rhodephyta) showed inhibitory effect on the in vitro lipid peroxidation. In the present study, the age-related changes in the antioxidant enzyme activity, lipid peroxidation, and total antioxidant capacity (TAOC) in different organs in mice were investigated and the in vivo antioxidant effect of F2 in aging mice was checked. Increased endogenous lipid peroxidation and decreased TAOC were observed in aging mice. Intraperitoneal administration of F2 significantly decreased the lipid peroxidation in a dose-dependent manner. F2 treatment increased TAOC and the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) in all the organs tested in aging mice. It is concluded that the sulfated polysaccharide fraction F2 can be used in compensating the decline in TAOC and the activities of antioxidant enzymes and thereby reduces the risks of lipid peroxidation.

Utility of peptide–protein affinity complexes in proteomics: identification of interaction partners of a tumor suppressor peptide*

Abstract: We used a N‐biotinylated peptide analog of the C‐terminal domain of the tumor suppressor protein, p21^cip1/waf1 to elucidate peptide/protein interacting partners. The C‐terminal domain of p21^cip1/waf1 protein spanning 141–160 amino acid residues is known to bind PCNA and this interaction is important in many biological processes including cell‐cycle control. This C‐terminal 20‐mer efficiently extracts PCNA in the presence of a variety of N‐ or C‐terminally attached affinity tags. Using difference silver stained 2D gels combined with in‐gel tryptic digests, we identified the difference spots using MALDI‐TOF mass spectrometry‐based peptide mass fingerprinting followed by a database search using profound against NCBIs human nonredundant protein sequence data bank. Identified spots include the p48 subunit of chromatin assembly factor‐1, the heat shock 70 protein analog BiP, calmodulin, nucleolin and a spot similar in size to dimeric PCNA. In contrast, microcapillary ion‐trap LC‐MS/MS analysis of a tryptic digest of entire affinity extracts derived from both control and experimental runs followed by database searches using sequest confirmed the presence of most of the above proteins. This strategy also identified hnRNPA1, HPSP90α, HSP40 and T‐complex protein 1, a protein similar to prothymosin, and a possible allelic variant of the p21^cip1/waf1 protein. The use of N‐biotinylated peptide derived from the C‐terminal domain of p21^cip1/waf1 protein in proteomic analysis exemplified here suggests that peptides obtained from intracellular functional screens could also potentially serve as efficient baits to discover new drug targets.
