AIM: To determine the role of inflammatory cytokines and reactive oxygen species (ROS) in childhood reflux esophagitis. METHODS: A total of 59 subjects who had complaints suggesting GERD underwent esophagogastroduoden oscopy. Endoscopic and histopathologic diagnosis of reflux esophagitis was established by Savary-Miller and Vandenplas grading systems, respectively. Esophageal biopsy specimens were taken from the esophagus 20% proximal above the esophagogastric junction for conventional histopathological examination and the measurements of ROS and cytokine levels. ROS were measured by chemiluminescence, whereas IL-8 and MCP-1 levels were determined with quantitative immunometric ELISA on esophageal tissue. Esophageal tissue ROS, IL-8 and MCP-1 levels were compared among groups with and without endoscopic/histo- pathologic esophagitis. RESULTS: Of 59 patients 28 (47.5%) had normal esophagus whereas 31 (52.5%) had endoscopic esophagitis. In histopathological evaluation, almost 73% of the cases had mild and 6.8% had moderate degree of esophagitis. When ROS and chemokine levels were compared among groups with and without endoscopic esophagitis, statistical difference could not be found between patients with and without esophagitis. Although the levels of ROS, IL-8 and MCP-1 were found to be higher in the group with histopathological reflux esophagitis, this difference was not statistically significant. CONCLUSION: These results suggest that the grade of esophagitis is usually mild or moderate during childhood and factors apart from ROS, IL-8 and MCP-1 may be involved in the pathogenesis of reflux esophagitis in children. 相似文献

Introduction In this study, we have investigated the role of leptin, soluble leptin receptor(sOb-R), resistin, and insulin secretory dynamics
in the development of hypothalamic obesity.
Materials and methods Children who had hypothalamo-pituitary tumor were divided into two groups. First group included obese-overweight (hypothalamic
obese = HOB group, n = 23) and second group included non-obese children (hypothalamic non-obese = HNOB group, n = 16). Exogenously obese-overweight children (OB group, n = 22) were included as controls. Basal and second-hour serum glucose and insulin in oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), basal
serum leptin, sOb-R, resistin levels, and homeostasis model assessment (HOMA) indexes were compared between the groups.
Results Age, sex, and pubertal status were similar in study groups. Median and interquartile ranges of body mass index (BMI) z scores were similar in HOB and OB groups (2.0 (1.5–2.1) and 2.1 (1.8–2.3), respectively). Serum leptin levels corrected for
BMI were highest and total leptin/sOb-R ratios (free leptin index (FLI)) tended to be higher in HOB than HNOB and OB groups,
indicating leptin resistance (leptin/BMI, 4.0 (1.6–5.2), 1.5 (0.8–3.1), and 2.5 (1.8–3.5); FLI, 2.0 (0.8–3.5), 0.6 (0.3–1.2),
and 1.5 (1–2.3) in HOB, HNOB, and OB groups; respectively). Serum resistin levels were similar in groups (2.6 (1.9–3.1), 2.8
(1.7–3.4), and 3.0 (2.2–3.5) ng/ml in HOB, HNOB, and OB groups, respectively). Basal serum glucose, basal and second-hour
insulin levels in OGTT, and HOMA index were higher in OB group than the HOB and HNOB groups, indicating insulin resistance
in simple obesity; however, increment of insulin to same glycemic load in OGTT was highest in the HOB group indicating insulin
dysregulation (p < 0.05).
Conclusion Hypothalamic obesity seems to be related to both dysregulated afferent (leptin) and efferent (insulin) neural outputs through
the autonomic nervous system resulting in energy storage as fat.

The objective of this study was to assess the urine levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and interleukin-8 (IL-8) as noninvasive markers of vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) and renal parenchymal scarring (RPS) in children in the absence of a recent urinary tract infection (UTI) episode. Urine concentrations of IL-6 and IL-8 in 114 children aged 1 month to 16 years were evaluated. The children were divided into four groups: group 1, 26 children with VUR and RPS; group 2, 27 children with VUR without RPS; group 3, 34 children with RPS without VUR, group 4, 27 children without VUR and RPS, as the control group. After the first assessment, the children were divided into four larger groups for comparison purposes: group A (groups 1+2), 53 children with VUR; group B (groups 3+4), 61 children without VUR; group C (groups 1+3), 60 children with RPS; group D (groups 2+4), 54 children without RPS. Urinary IL-6 and IL-8 concentrations were determined. To avoid dilution effects and to the standardize samples, urinary levels of IL-6 and IL-8 were expressed as the ratio of cytokine to urinary creatinine (pg/mg). The median urine IL-6/creatinine was significantly higher in patients with VUR than in those without VUR (5.72 vs. 3.73). In patients with VUR, there was a significant but rather weak correlation between IL-6/creatinine concentrations and the reflux grade (p?<?0.05, R?=?0.305). The median urine IL-8/creatinine was significantly higher in patients with RPS than in those without RPS (43.12 vs. 16.36). In patients with RPS, there was a significant but rather weak correlation between IL-8/creatinine concentrations and the renal scar grade (p?<?0.05, R?=?0.251). The results of this study provide preliminary evidence that children with VUR have a high urine IL-6 concentration, whereas children with RPS have a high urine IL-8 concentration. 相似文献

Aim Methotrexate (MTX)-induced hepatotoxicity restricts the clinical use of this immunosuppressive drug. In this study, our aim
was to research the role of oxidative stress in the hepatic toxicity of MTX and the protective effect of ursodeoxycholic acid
(UDCA) in this setting. Methods Wistar type rats (n = 32) were divided into four groups; group-1 as the MTX + UDCA, group-2 as the MTX, group-3 as the UDCA, group-4 as the saline-receiving
groups. The MTX + UDCA and MTX groups of rats received 50 mg/kg of UDCA administered orally; whilst physiological saline was
administered orally to the MTX and saline groups and continued for the next 6 days. On the second day of the study, the MTX + UDCA
and MTX groups had a single intraperitoneal dose of MTX of 20 mg/kg. The UDCA and saline groups also received similar volumes
of physiological saline intraperitoneally. On the sixth day, serum samples were collected and analyzed for ALT, alkaline phosphatase
(ALP) and gamma glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT) and homogenated liver tissues were examined for reactive oxygen metabolites
(ROM); luminol, lucigenin, lipid peroxygenation product malondialdehyde (MDA) and glutathione (GSH) levels. Results In the MTX group, serum ALT, ALP, GGT and tissue ROM levels were higher and GSH level was lower. On the histopathological
examination, hepatocellular necrosis was clearly more evident in the MTX group than the MTX + UDCA group. Conclusions UDCA treatment protects against MTX-induced liver toxicity. Histopathologically hepatocyte necrosis can be prevented by UDCA
treatment, indicating clearly the hepatoprotective effect of this agent on MTX-induced liver injury. 相似文献
