Lipoprotein(a) concentration in diabetes: relationship to proteinuria and diabetes control

Diabetic patients are at increased risk of cardiovascular disease, particularly when proteinuria is present. Lipoprotein(a)[Lp(a)] levels were assessed in 37 patients with insulin dependent (IDDM) and in 75 patients with non-insulin dependent (NIDDM) diabetes who showed varying degrees of proteinuria and glycaemic control. Median Lp(a) in 112 diabetic patients was significantly greater than in 116 healthy controls (113 vs 48 mg/L; p <0.01). 86 of the patients had first morning urine albumin concentration < 30 mg/L (normoalbuminuria = NA), 16 patients 30–200 mg/L (microalbuminuria = MA) and ten patients < 200 mg/L (albuminuria = ALB). There was no significant difference in median Lp(a) concentration between the three groups (NA = 108, MA = 163, ALB = 98 mg/L; p > 0.5). No significant difference in median Lp(a) concentration was found between patients with IDDM, NIDDM treated with insulin, or NIDDM treated with oral agents and/or diet (120, 98, 115 mg/L respectively; p > 0.7). When the 86 NA patients were divided on the basis of median fructosamine concentration (357 umol/L), no significant difference was found in median Lp(a) levels between those grouped below or above this median (98 mg/L vs 118 mg/L; p < 0.5). Across all diabetics studied there was no significant correlation present between Lp(a) and urinary protein or glycaemic control. These cross-sectional results suggest that median Lp(a) concentration is increased in both IDDM and NIDDM patients, but this increase is not related to the degree of proteinuria or short-term glycaemic control.     

Distribution of prion protein in German patients with Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease is different from that in Japanese patients

We investigated the distribution of prion protein (PrP) in 14 German patients with sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) and compared it with that observed in Japanese patients. Immunohistochemical study revealed diffuse gray matter stainings including synaptic structures in all cases. In addition, 4 patients showed plaque-type deposition which was very rarely observed among sporadic Japanese patients without known mutation of the PrP gene but with valine at codon 129. A higher incidence of PrP plaques in German sporadic CJD may be related to the racial difference in the PrP gene.     

Human brain atlas: For high-resolution functional and anatomical mapping

We present the new computerized Human Brain Atlas (HBA) for anatomical and functional mapping studies of the human brain. The HBA is based on many high-resolution magnetic resonance images of normal subjects and provides continuous updating of the mean shape and position of anatomical structures of the human brain. The structures are transformable by linear and nonlinear global and local transformations applied anywhere in 3-D pictures to fit the anatomical structures of individual brains, which, by reformatting, are transformed into a high-resolution standard anatomical format. The power of the HBA to reduce anatomical variations was evaluated on a randomized selection of anatomical landmarks in brains of 27 young normal male volunteers who were different from those on whom the standard brain was selected. The HBA, even when based only on standard brain surface and central structures, reduced interindividual anatomical variance to the level of the variance in structure position between the right and left hemisphere in individual brains. © 1994 Wiley-Liss, Inc.     

Serum Levels of Free Insulin-Like Growth Factor (IGF)-I in Normal Children

Serum levels of free insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I were measured by immunoradiometric assay (IRMA) in fasting sera of 137 normal boys and 120 normal girls aged from 8 to 15 yr to study relationships between free IGF-I levels and ages, total IGF-I, IGF binding protein (IGFBP)-1, IGFBP-3, and acid-labile subunit (ALS) levels. In both sexes, serum free IGF-I levels and the ratios of free IGF-I to total IGF-I were significantly higher in the pubertal age groups than in the prepubertal age groups. Serum levels of free IGF-I showed a significant positive correlation with those of total IGF-I, IGFBP-3 and ALS, while they showed a significant negative correlation with those of IGFBP-1. These observations suggest that increase in serum free IGF-I levels during puberty is caused by a dramatic increase in total IGF-I, rather than IGFBP-3, and a decrease in IGFBP-1. Also, high free IGF-I levels may play an important role in pubertal growth spurt.

Effect of the stable thromboxane derivative, carbocyclic thromboxane A2, on membrane potential of rat myenteric neurones in culture

The effects of carbocyclic thromboxane A(2) (cTXA(2); 10(-6) mol L(-1)) on membrane potential and cytosolic Ca(2+) concentration were measured with the whole-cell patch-clamp or the fura-2 method, respectively, at rat myenteric ganglia. cTXA(2) caused a hyperpolarization of myenteric neurones from -19.3 +/- 2.5 to -29.3 +/- 2.3 mV. In addition, the eicosanoid potentiated the carbachol-induced depolarization from 4.2 +/- 1.0 mV under control conditions to 11.1 +/- 1.1 mV in the presence of the cTXA(2) (n = 9). The hyperpolarization was abolished by internal application of CsCl (140 mmol L(-1)), a non-selective blocker of K(+) channels, or EGTA (11 mmol L(-1)in the pipette solution), a chelator of intracellular Ca(2+). A similar inhibition was observed in the presence of charybdotoxin (10(-7) mol L(-1)). Fura-2 imaging experiments revealed a cTXA(2)-evoked increase in the intracellular Ca(2+) concentration as indicated by a rise in the fura-2 ratio signal. This response was mediated by a release of Ca(2+) from intracellular stores as sarcoplasmic-endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase blockade with cyclopiazonic acid (5 x 10(-5) mol L(-1)) completely abolished the response to cTXA(2). A similar inhibition was observed after blockade of phospholipase C with U-73122 (10(-5) mol L(-1)). These results suggest an activation of Ca(2+)-activated K(+) channels by cTXA(2) after stimulation of phospholipase C.     

正常人颈段脊柱结构内CGRP和SP阳性神经纤维的分布

目的 为深入探讨颈肩痛的发病机理。方法 用免疫组织化学方法观察人颈段脊柱结构内CGRP和SP阳性神经末梢存在的情况。结果 人颈段脊柱结构的纤维层内均有CGRP和SP免疫反应阳性神经末梢存在，多数神经末梢独立行走，呈树枝状或念珠状，少量神经末梢交织网状。结论 CGRP和SP可能参与了人颈段脊柱结构的伤害性感觉信息的传递。当人颈段脊柱结构的神经末梢受刺激时，可能引起CGRP和SP的释放和传递，这可能是引起原发性颈肩痛的原因之一。
