Longitudinal relationships between nutritional status, body composition, and physical fitness in rural children of South Africa: The Ellisras longitudinal study.

The objective of this study was to investigate the development and tracking of nutritional status, body composition and physical fitness, and the longitudinal relationship of changes in nutritional status, and body composition with changes in physical fitness over a 1-year period of follow-up. Studied were 380 boys and 322 girls aged 7-14 years from the Ellisras Longitudinal Study. Boys and girls were divided into two groups of pre-adolescence (<11 years) and adolescence (>10 years). High tracking coefficients (>8) were found for nutritional status, body mass index, and fat-free mass, while low tracking coefficients (<4) were found for the sum of skinfolds, fat mass, arm muscle area, and central fat distribution. Moderate and low tracking coefficients were found for the physical fitness items. Longitudinal regression analyses showed that physical fitness performances that require a high energy flux over a short period of time are affected by muscle wasting, whereas having a low body weight appears to be important for a good performance on other fitness items in these malnourished rural South African children.

Hematopoietic Stem Cells Expansion in Rotating Wall Vessel

1 Introduction Clinical trials have demonstrated that ex vivo expanded hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and progenitors offer great promise in reconstituting in vivo hematopoiesis in patients who have undergone intensive chemotherapy.It is therefore necessary to develop a clinical-scale culture system to provide the expanded HSCs and progenitors.Static culture systems such as T-flasks and gas-permeable blood bags are the most widely used culture devices for expanding hematopoietic cells. But they reveal several inherent limitations: ineffective mixing, lack of control options for dissolved oxygen and pH and difficulty in continuous feeding, which restricts the usefulness of static systems. Several advanced bioreactors have been used in the field of HSCs expansion. But hematopoietic cells are extremely sensitive to shear, so cells in bioreactors such as stirred and perfusion culture systems may suffer physical damage. This problem will be improved by applying the rotating wall vessel (RWV) bioreactor in clinic because of its low shear and unique structure. In this research, cord blood (CB) HSCs were expanded by means of a cell-dilution feeding protocol in RWV.     

Lung preservation solution substrate composition affects rat lung oxidative metabolism during hypothermic storage

Lungs harvested for transplantation utilize oxygen after procurement. We investigated the effects of storage solution substrate composition on pulmonary oxidative metabolism and energetics during the preservation interval. Rat lungs were harvested and stored at 10 degrees C in low-potassium dextran (LPD) solution. Groups of lungs were preserved with preservation solution containing 5mM carbon-13 ((13)C) labeled glucose or increasing concentrations of (13)C labeled pyruvate. Additional groups of rat lungs were studied with dichloroacetate (DCA) added to the pyruvate-modified preservation solutions. Oxidative metabolism (measured by (13)C-enrichment of glutamate) and adenine nucleotide levels were quantified. Increasing preservation solution pyruvate concentration augmented glutamate (13)C-enrichment up to a concentration of 32mM pyruvate. DCA further stimulated oxidative metabolism only at lower concentrations of pyruvate (4 and 8mM). ATP and ADP were not different among groups, but AMP levels were higher in the glucose group. These data suggest that altering the substrate composition of the preservation solution influences lung metabolism during allograft preservation for transplantation.     

Entamoeba invadens contains the components of a classical adrenergic signaling system

Epinephrine (Epi) was previously found to bypass the need for galactose ligands during early steps in the initiation of Entamoeba encystment. Epinephrine is presumed to act on amoebae through a classical adrenergic signaling pathway that results in the increased production of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP). The object of this study was to verify the existence of an adrenergic like pathway and its response to Epi in both whole Entamoeba trophozoites and purified plasma membrane preparations. Whole trophozoite and purified membrane preparations from Entamoeba invadens responded to the presence of Epi by increasing the production of cAMP. The modulators of heterotrimeric G protein signaling, forskolin (FK), pertussis toxin (PTX) and cholera toxin (CTX), also increased cAMP levels in whole cells and membrane fragments. All of these increases in cAMP were inhibited by specific inhibitors of adenylyl cyclase (AC). Treatment of membrane fragments with epinephrine caused an increased binding of non-hydrolysable GTP analogs. Entamoeba trophozoites therefore appear to contain G-protein-regulated adenylyl cyclase that functions downstream of an adrenergic ligand receptor.     

B细胞特异性激活蛋白Pax-5在淋巴瘤组织中的表达

Temporal expression and cellular origin of CC chemokine receptors CCR1, CCR2 and CCR5 in the central nervous system: insight into mechanisms of MOG-induced EAE

Background  

The CC chemokine receptors CCR1, CCR2 and CCR5 are critical for the recruitment of mononuclear phagocytes to the central nervous system (CNS) in multiple sclerosis (MS) and other neuroinflammatory diseases. Mononuclear phagocytes are effector cells capable of phagocytosing myelin and damaging axons. In this study, we characterize the regional, temporal and cellular expression of CCR1, CCR2 and CCR5 mRNA in the spinal cord of rats with myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein-induced experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (MOG-EAE). While resembling human MS, this animal model allows unique access to CNS-tissue from various time-points of relapsing neuroinflammation and from various lesional stages: early active, late active, and inactive completely demyelinated lesions.
