OBJECTIVES: We investigated the effect of human growth hormone (GH) on newborn rat brain superoxide dismutase, glutathione and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels in hypoxic-ischemic (H-I) newborn rats. METHODS: Fourty-eight 7 days old newborn rats were randomized to a healthy (n: 15), H-I (n: 18) and GH administered H-I (GH-H-I, n: 15) group. Permanent, left common carotid ligation was performed in the H-I groups. In the GH-H-I group, 50 mg/kg human GH (Norditropin Simplex, Novo Nordisk A/S) was administered subcutaneously just before carotid artery ligation. Two hours after ligation, rats were subjected to 2 h of hypoxemia and then were decapitated. Right and left cerebral hemispheres (CHs) and cerebellum-brain stem (C-BS) were separated. RESULTS: Glutathione levels of each region were not statistically different from each other in and between the groups. Superoxide dismutase levels were higher in C-BSs compared to CHs (for each comparison p < 0.01). CHs and C-BS MDA levels were similar in the control and H-I groups but MDA levels of both CHs of the GH-H-I group were significantly higher than the levels of the H-I group (p = 0.01; p = 0.024, respectively). Left CH MDA level of GH-H-I group was higher compared to left CH MDA of the control group (p = 0.045) while there was no difference between right CHs. In the GH-H-I group, left CH MDA level was higher than the C-BS (p = 0.03). MDA levels of the C-BSs did not differ between the groups (p > 0.05). CONCLUSION: Although we have not evaluated the effect of GH histopathologically, increased lipid peroxidation especially in the H-I (left) hemisphere of the GH treated rats might suggest that GH treatment may be harmful in H-I encephalopathy. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of a school-based cardiovascular-fitness-training program in children with mental retardation (MR). Thirty boys (8-15 years old) with mild to moderate mental retardation were randomly divided into 2 groups--experimental (EX) and control (CN). The EX group underwent 10 weeks of training 3 times/week for a duration of 1 hr/session at 60-80% peak heart rate. At Week 10, significant increases in 20-m shuttle-run-test (20-MST) laps were observed for the EX group. No improvements were found in percent body fat. No changes were observed for the CN. The school-based training program might prove useful in improving the cardiovascular fitness of children with MR. 相似文献

The goal of this study was to evaluate the role of oxidant–antioxidant balance in the pathogenesis of COPD. We included 30
healthy nonsmokers [24 male, 6 female; mean age (yr) ± SD: 62.4 ± 9.3], 30 healthy smokers [27 male, 3 female; mean age (yr) ± SD:
58.7 ± 6.0], 71 patients with stable COPD [68 male, 3 female; mean age (yr) ± SD: 63.5 ± 7.9], and 31 patients with COPD exacerbation
[30 male, 1 female; mean age (yr) ± SD: 64.2 ± 7.3]. In all study groups the peripheral venous blood samples were taken for
plasma malonyldialdehyde (MDA), a parameter of lipid peroxidation caused by the oxidants, and erythrocyte superoxide dismutase
(SOD), an antioxidant enzyme. The mean plasma MDA level was higher in healthy smokers and in patients with COPD than in healthy
nonsmokers (p < 0.05), and erythrocyte SOD enzyme activity in patients with COPD exacerbation (1048.2 ± 226.5 Ug/Hb) was significantly
higher than in healthy nonsmokers (947.9 ± 198.0 Ug/Hb) (p < 0.05). Although mean erythrocyte SOD enzyme activity in healthy smokers and patients with stable COPD was higher than in
healthy nonsmokers, the difference was not statistically significant. We found that healthy smokers and stable and exacerbated
COPD patients had an impairment in oxidant–antioxidant balance. We suggested that new therapeutic interventions, which may
repair the impaired oxidant-antioxidant balance in COPD, are needed to prevent the development of COPD. 相似文献

A 9-year-old boy with nephrotic syndrome who had a history of atopic dermatitis since 5 years of age is presented in this report. Generalized edema and hyperpigmented and desquamated pruritic lesions were detected on the trunk and extremities. Mesangial C1q deposition was seen on kidney biopsy. A high serum IgE level was also detected. Complete remission was achieved with steroid therapy. 相似文献

Methyl methacrylate (MMA) is a monomer, commonly used in neurosurgery, orthopedic surgery, and in dental clinics. The adverse effects of this monomer are well described in the literature. This study was designed to evaluate the effects of MMA on nasal cavity, lung, and antioxidant status. For this purpose, two experimental groups of rats were exposed to MMA (at 1,000 ppm, 6 h/day, 5 days/week for 4 weeks) by inhalation under poor (group A, n = 12) and normal ventilation (group B, n = 11) conditions. A control group (group C, n = 10) received normal air. Degeneration of olfactory epithelium, bronchopneumonia, interstitial pneumonia, hemorrhage, atelectasis, edema, emphysema, and bronchial epithelial hyperplasia were observed in groups A and B. Emphysema was the most common lesion. Bronchopneumonia with abscesses was only observed in group A. Glutathione levels were significantly decreased and malondialdehyde levels were significantly increased in group A. No significant difference was observed in superoxide dismutase levels between the groups. The data presented indicate that before using MMA, adequate protection systems should be in place to prevent occupationally related MMA respiratory-tract injuries. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: The prevalence of different types of bone disease in chronic renal failure (CRF) has changed significantly during the last decade. The aim of the present study is to evaluate the spectrum of bone disease in children with CRF undergoing continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). METHODS: Seventeen children with CRF on CAPD aged 7-20 years were evaluated. All patients had received regular vitamin D and calcium carbonate therapy during the 6 months preceding the bone biopsy. Serum calcium, phosphate, alkaline phosphatase and immunoreactive parathyroid hormone (iPTH) levels were measured and hand X-rays were performed. Transiliac bone biopsies were analyzed for histologic diagnosis. RESULTS: High turnover renal osteodystrophy (ROD) was the most common bone disease, present in eight patients (47%). Five patients (29%) had low turnover bone disease, and four (24%) had mixed ROD. The mean age of the high turnover ROD group was higher than that of the low turnover group (14 +/- 3 vs. 11 +/- 3 years, P < 0.05). Seven of the nine patients who had tubulo-interstitial nephritis were found to have high turnover bone disease. In contrast, none of the patients with glomerulonephritis exhibited high turnover bone lesions. Mean serum calcium levels were found to be significantly higher in the low turnover group compared with the patients with high turnover bone disease (P < 0.001). A serum iPTH level > 200 pg/mL was 100% sensitive and 66% specific in identifying patients with high turnover ROD. CONCLUSION: The spectrum of bone disease of the children with CRF undergoing CAPD seems to depend on the rate of CRF and primary disease. The risk of developing overt hyperparathyroid bone disease is high in children with slowly progressing forms of renal pathology and especially in those with tubulo-interstitial disease. In contrast, children with glomerular diseases who had a more rapidly progressive course may have a lesser risk of developing high turnover bone disease. The results of the present study indicate that even routinely prescribed regular vitamin D therapy early in the course of disease may lead to low turnover bone lesion in small children who have CRF due to rapidly progressive forms of renal pathology. 相似文献

Purpose: The aim of this study was to determine the effects of single-dose intravitreal bevacizumab on the levels of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in serum and distant organs.Methods: Adult New Zealand albino rabbits (n?=?40) were divided into experimental and control groups. Experimental rabbits received a single 0.05?ml intravitreal injection of 1.25?mg bevacizumab (Avastin) into the right eye, and control rabbits (n?=?8) received no injection. Following injection, group 1 rabbits (n?=?8) were sacrificed on day 1, group 2 rabbits (n?=?8) on day 7, group 3 rabbits (n?=?8) on day 14, and group 4 rabbits (n?=?8) on day 28; control rabbits were sacrificed on day 28. After sacrifice, samples of brain, heart, liver, kidney and blood were collected. Levels of VEGF in serum and tissue were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The presence of bevacizumab was evaluated by immunofluorescence staining in tissues.Results: Positive bevacizumab immunoreactivity was observed in brain, heart and kidney. Serum VEGF levels significantly decreased in groups 3 and 4 compared with controls (p?0.05). Liver VEGF levels significantly decreased in group 3 compared with controls (p?0.05).Conclusions: Intravitreal bevacizumab not only may escape from the blood-retinal barrier and enter the general circulation, but also may be disseminated to distant organs. Our study demonstrates that a single dose of intravitreally injected bevacizumab decreases VEGF levels in serum and liver. 相似文献
