Distribution of the [3H]-label from low doses of radioactive ochratoxin a ingested by rats,and evidence for DNA single-strand breaks caused in liver and kidneys

The distribution of a single low dose of [³H]ochratoxin A (OTA) in different tissues of male Wistar rats, after administration by intubation, was investigated after 5 h, 24 h and 48 h. This dose corresponds to concentrations encountered in naturally contaminated feed (4 ppm). The distribution of [³H]-label varied with the time elapsed after administration; at 5 h the highest specific label was found in the stomach contents and in decreasing order in: intestinal contents, lung, liver, kidney, heart, fat, intestine, testes, and the lowest in muscles, spleen and brain. With exception of brain, fat, stomach and lung, all tissues showed maximum levels at 24 h, after which time the label decreased steadily, whereas in fat it increased.After a 12-week feeding experiment, with doses of 288.8 g/kg corresponding to an intake of 4 ppm in feed each 48 h, the DNA in liver and kidneys was investigated for damage. By the alkaline elution method combined with micro-spectrofluorimetric determinations of DNA, evidence for DNA single-strand breaks was obtained. These findings support reports on the carcinogenic action of OTA.     

放射性皮肤损伤机制的研究进展

皮肤是人体受到电离辐射时最先接触的器官,因其基底细胞层及毛细血管对射线很敏感,所以放射性皮肤损伤十分常见,急性放射性皮肤损伤常与表皮和真皮中的细胞改变和炎症有关,而皮肤的晚期损伤主要与辐射对血管影响有关。放射性皮肤损伤的临床表现为皮肤黏膜出现红斑、干性脱屑、湿性脱屑、溃疡,严重程度与射线种类、剂量等相关。目前,放射性皮肤损伤的潜在发生机制在很大程度上是未知的,辐射损伤后还未建立治疗的金标准,已知的放射性皮肤损伤的发生机制大致可分为3个途径：活性氧大量增加引发的氧化应激损伤、细胞因子被转录激活后引发的炎症、骨髓源性细胞引起的免疫反应。本文综述了放射性皮肤损伤发生机制的3大途径,为进一步研究放射性皮肤损伤的机制以及预防治疗提供参考。     

The Application of Creatine Supplementation in Medical Rehabilitation

Numerous health conditions affecting the musculoskeletal, cardiopulmonary, and nervous systems can result in physical dysfunction, impaired performance, muscle weakness, and disuse-induced atrophy. Due to its well-documented anabolic potential, creatine monohydrate has been investigated as a supplemental agent to mitigate the loss of muscle mass and function in a variety of acute and chronic conditions. A review of the literature was conducted to assess the current state of knowledge regarding the effects of creatine supplementation on rehabilitation from immobilization and injury, neurodegenerative diseases, cardiopulmonary disease, and other muscular disorders. Several of the findings are encouraging, showcasing creatine’s potential efficacy as a supplemental agent via preservation of muscle mass, strength, and physical function; however, the results are not consistent. For multiple diseases, only a few creatine studies with small sample sizes have been published, making it difficult to draw definitive conclusions. Rationale for discordant findings is further complicated by differences in disease pathologies, intervention protocols, creatine dosing and duration, and patient population. While creatine supplementation demonstrates promise as a therapeutic aid, more research is needed to fill gaps in knowledge within medical rehabilitation.

How defective spermatogenesis affects sperm DNA integrity

Spermatogenesis is the essential process to maintain and promote male fertility. It is extraordinarily complex with many regulatory elements and numerous steps. The process involves several cell types, regulatory molecules, repair mechanisms and epigenetic regulators. Evidence has shown that fertility can be negatively impacted by reduced sperm DNA integrity. Sources of sperm DNA damage include replication errors and causes of DNA fragmentation which include abortive apoptosis, defective maturation and oxidative stress. This review outlines the process of spermatogenesis, spermatogonial regulation and sperm differentiation; additionally, DNA damage and currently studied DNA repair mechanisms in spermatozoon are also covered.
