Connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) is reported to be a target gene of transforming growth factor beta (TGFbeta) and bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) in vitro. Its physiological role in angiogenesis and skeletogenesis during mouse development has been described recently. Here, we have mapped expression of CTGF mRNA during mouse heart development, postnatal adult life, and after experimental myocardial infarction. Furthermore, we investigated the relationship between CTGF and the BMP/TGFbeta signaling pathway in particular during heart development in mutant mice. Postnatally, CTGF expression in the heart became restricted to the atrium. Strikingly, 1 week after myocardial infarction, when myocytes have disappeared from the infarct zone, CTGF and TGFbeta expression as well as activated forms of TGFbeta but not BMP, Smad effector proteins are colocalized exclusively in the fibroblasts of the scar tissue, suggesting possible cooperation between CTGF and TGFbeta during the pathological fibrotic response. 相似文献

Introduction and hypothesis
A correlation exists between external anal sphincter (EAS) damage during birth and the subsequent development of fecal incontinence. This study evaluated the effect of delivery-related trauma on EAS innervation by means of intra-anal EMG performed with a rectal probe with 16 silver electrodes equally spaced along the circumference, before and after delivery.Methods
Pre-partum EMG measurements were performed on 511 women, by nine clinical partners from five European countries at the 28th to 34th gestational weeks and the 6th to 8th post-delivery weeks; 331 women returned, after delivery, for the second test. The innervation zones (IZ) of EAS single motor units were identified by means of an EMG decomposition algorithm.Results
The subjects were divided into four groups according to the delivery mode (Caesarean, vaginal with no evident damage, spontaneous lacerations and episiotomies). The number of IZs before and after delivery was compared. In the 82 women who underwent right mediolateral episiotomy, a statistically significant reduction of IZs was observed, after delivery, in the right ventral quadrant of the EAS (side of the episiotomy). Women who had Caesarean section, spontaneous lacerations or lack of evident damage did not present any significant change in the innervation pattern.Conclusions
Right episiotomy reduces the number of IZs on the right-ventral side of the EAS. The fast and reliable test proposed indicates the sphincter innervation pattern before delivery and helps obstetricians to evaluate the risks and to choose the preferred side of the episiotomy, if deemed necessary at the time of delivery. 相似文献4.

A novel series of substituted (thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-ylthio)carboxylic acids has been synthesized and tested in vitro towards human protein kinase CK2. It was revealed that the most active compounds inhibiting CK2 are 3-{[5-(4-methylphenyl)thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-yl]thio}propanoic acid and 3-{[5-(4-ethoxyphenyl)thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-yl]thio}propanoic acid (IC50 values are 0.1 μM and 0.125 μM, respectively). Structure-activity relationships of 28 tested thienopyrimidine derivatives have been studied and binding mode of this chemical class has been predicted. Evaluation of the inhibitors on seven protein kinases revealed considerable selectivity towards CK2. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: This monocentric study evaluated the effect of ukrain in the treatment of pancreatic cancer. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Between January 1996 and December 1999 we treated 21 patients with 10 mg ukrain every second day x10. The control group received supportive treatment only. RESULTS: Ukrain treatment was well tolerated. Mean values on pain measure and Karnofsky index were significantly better in the ukrain group than in controls ( P<0.05). One-year survival was 76% in the ukrain group, compared to 9.5% in the control group. Median survival after treatment with ukrain was 574 days, compared to 197 days in the control group. CONCLUSIONS: Our data demonstrate that ukrain improves quality of life in patients suffering from advanced pancreatic cancer and significantly prolongs survival time in these patients. 相似文献

We studied enamel defects in mandibular cheek teeth of fallow deer from an enclosed population that had grown far beyond the carrying capacity of its habitat. Macroscopic inspection revealed a high frequency of pathological enamel alterations in the permanent premolars and the third molar, which form late during dental development, while earlier forming teeth (deciduous premolars and first molar) were generally not affected. Macroscopic enamel alterations comprised opacity and posteruptive discoloration, loss of occlusal enamel ridges, and presence of enamel surface lesions. Backscattered electron imaging in the SEM revealed a marked hypomineralization and related increased porosity of the outer compared to the central and inner enamel portions in the affected teeth. In contrast, the enamel of the unaffected first molars showed a homogeneous high degree of mineralization. Microindentation hardness testing demonstrated a significantly reduced and highly variable hardness of the outer enamel of the affected teeth. The recorded enamel alterations are indicative of a disturbance of enamel maturation. Based on findings of experimental studies by other authors that explored the effects of dietary deficiencies on the mineralization of dental hard tissues in different mammal species, we suggest a dietary calcium deficiency as the cause of the observed pathological enamel changes in the fallow deer. The supposed calcium deficiency only affected teeth whose crown mineralization takes place after weaning, while the deciduous premolars and the first molar, whose crown formation occurs prenatally or during the early postnatal period of intense milk feeding, were unaffected.
