TSH receptor inhibitory antibody(TBAb) promotes extracellular accumulation of hyaluronic acid in pretibial myxedema primary fibroblasts via PI3K-AKT pathway / 中华内分泌代谢杂志

Objective:Pretibial myxedema (PTM) is a localized myxedema characterized by excessive dermal hya-luronan (HA) deposition and elevated serum TSH receptor antibody (TRAb). In this study, we investigated the effects of TRAb and its subtypes, stimulating antibody [TSAb (M22)] and inhibitory antibody[TBAb (K1-70)], on the synthesis of hyaluronic acid produced by PTM primary dermal fibroblasts.Methods:Normal and PTM dermal fibroblasts were isolated and stimulated with M22, K1-70, and IgG from patients respectively. HA concentration in the supernatant before and after stimulation was tested by ELISA. The protein level and phosphorylation variation of CEMIP, HAS2 and PI3K-AKT pathway were detected by Western blot.Results:IgG from patients (TRAb 8.4 IU/L) significantly stimulated the extracellular accumulation of HA in PTM primary fibroblasts. Similarly, both M22 and K1-70 also upregulated HA level in the supernatant, though K1-70 seemed much more effecitve. After treatment with IgG, M22, and K1-70, the expression of HAS2 increased and the expression of CEMIP decreased; meanwhile, p-PI3K and p-AkT increased. Among them, further study on K1-70, promoting HA production by regulating PI3K-AkT signal pathway could be inhibited by PI3K inhibitor (LY294002).Conclusion:TSAb (M22) and TBAb (K1-70), especially TBAb, increase HAS2 and inhibit CEMIP expression by activating PI3-AKT signaling pathway in PTM fibroblasts, leading to increased extracellular HA level.

Prevalence of exposure to cooking-based polluting fuels and biofuels of residents aged 40 years and above in some regions of Hunan Province / 公共卫生与预防医学

Objective To investigate the prevalence of exposure to cooking-based polluting fuels and biofuels of residents aged over 40 years in some regions of Hunan Province, and to provide a basis for future prevention and control of the pollutant fuels. Methods The present survey was carried out on residents from five chronic obstructive pulmonary disease surveillance sites in Hunan Province in 2019. A multi-stage stratified cluster sampling strategy was conducted to determine resident participants for the present study. A face-to-face inquiry survey was used to collect the relevant data of the participants. After complex weighting of the samples, the prevalence of residents’ exposure to the pollutant fuel and biofuel was analyzed. Results A total of 2 981 residents aged 40 years and above were included in the analysis. With complex weighting, the exposure rate of polluting fuels and biofuels were 19.69%（95%CI：18.11%-21.27%）and 16.14%（95%CI：14.66%-17.62%）, respectively, among residents aged over 40 years in Hunan. The exposure rates of polluting fuels and biomass fuels were both higher in females than males, and higher in rural areas than urban areas (both P<0.05). The exposure rates of polluting fuels and biomass fuels both decreased with age and education level (both P<0.05). Conclusion The use of polluting fuels and biomass fuels for cooking among residents aged 40 years and above is still popular in some regions of Hunan Province. Appropriate measures should be taken toward rural women to reduce their exposure to polluting fuels and biofuels.

Autosomal dominant lateral temporal lobe epilepsy with heterozygous RELN mutation：one family report and literature review / 中华神经科杂志

Objective:To investigate the clinical features, imaging features, gene diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of autosomal dominant lateral temporal epilepsy (ADLTE) with heterozygous RELN mutation.Methods:Clinical data of an ADLTE family caused by a heterozygous mutation in the RELN gene diagnosed in September 2019 at Qilu Hospital of Shandong University were collected. The clinical characteristics of ADLTE were analyzed, and literature review was conducted.Results:The male proband, 22 years old, was admitted with the clinical manifestations including seizures begun at temporal lobe, which specifically manifested as a sudden emergence of binaural hum, lasting for more than 10 seconds, and the symptoms can self-recover quickly. Half a month later, generalized tonic-clonic seizures attacked subsequently after a similar auditory aura. There were no abnormal findings in interictal electroencephalography (EEG) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Following the family history, his father had similar auditory symptoms around the age of 20, and occasional secondarily generalized tonic-clonic seizures appeared. Antiepileptic drug can control better. The whole exome sequencing of three people in the family revealed that both the proband and his father had NM-005045: c.6068T>C heterozygous mutation in the RELN gene.Conclusions:ADLTE mostly occurs in juveniles or early adulthood. The main clinical manifestations are focal seizures with auditory auras, which can be followed by generalized tonic-clonic seizures. There are no abnormal findings in the interictal EEG and MRI. ADLTE is sensitive to drug treatment and has good clinical prognosis. The study identified a novel heterozygous mutation NM-005045: c.6068T>C in RELN gene, which is responsible for the development of ADLTE.

Effect of dietary sodium intake on residual renal function in patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis: a prospective study of 33 cases / 南方医科大学学报

OBJECTIVE@#To explore the impact of dietary sodium-intake on residual renal function in patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis (PD).@*METHODS@#Thirty-three patients on PD with stable dialysis were regularly followed up for 12 months. The daily sodium intake of the patients was calculated based on the 3-day dietary record. Based on the mean daily sodium intake, the patients enrolled were divided into low-salt group (sodium intake≤3.0 g/day, 19 patients) and high-salt group (sodium intake>3.0 g/day, 14 patients). The baseline data of the patients were recorded, and the indicators of residual renal function and peritoneal function were regularly tested. The patients were followed-up at 3-month intervals, and their urine volume, peritoneal ultrafiltration volume and other clinical indicators were recorded and the biochemical indexes were detected to evaluate the changes in the residual renal function and peritoneal function.@*RESULTS@#There was a positive correlation between the total sodium excretion and dietary sodium intake in these patients (=0.536, =0.0013), and sodium excretion by dialysis was positively correlated with their sodium intake (=0.901, =0.000). Regression analysis suggested that the total sodium excretion was correlated with dietary sodium intake (β=0.416, 95% : 0.170-0.666; < 0.0018); sodium excretion by dialysis was associated with dietary sodium intake (β=0.489, 95% : 0.395-0.582; < 0.001). The residual renal function was reduced by 17.48±11.22 L /(w·1.73 m) in the low-salt group, as compared to 30.20±18.30 L /(w·1.73 m) in the high-salt group (=0.032). The reduction in the residual renal function was correlated with sodium intake in the PD patients (=0.409, =0.018). Multivariate regression analysis showed that sodium intake was an independent factor contributing to the reduction of residual renal function (β=14.646, 95% CI 7.426-21.866, < 0.001).@*CONCLUSIONS@#Sodium excretion by PD in patients with continuous ambulatory PD is positively correlated with their dietary sodium intake, which contribute to the decrease of residual renal function. A high dietary sodium intake may accelerate the reduction of residual renal function in these patients.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the protective effect and mechanism of Wei medicine Cichorium glandulosum 95% eth-anol extract(CG-I)on immunological liver injury in mice,and provide reference for post-screening its effective site. METHODS:60 mice were randomly divided into blank control group(normal saline),model group(normal saline),positive control group(Di-ammonium glycyrrhizinate,100 mg/kg) and CG-I high-dose,medium-dose,low-dose groups (calculated by crude drugs as 200, 100,50 g/kg),10 in each group,intragastrically administrated once every day,for 10 d. After 1 h of last administration,except for blank control group,mice in other groups were intravenously injected Con-A in tail to induce immunological liver injury. After 8 h of modeling,tumor necrosis factor α(TNF-α),interferon γ(IFN-γ),interleukin 1β(IL-1β)contents in serum were detected;liver and spleen indexes were calculated. The pathological changes in liver tissue were observed,and aspartate aminotransferase(AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), glutathione S-transferase (GST), alkaline phosphatase (AKP), total superoxide dismutase (T-SOD),malondialdehyde(MDA)levels in liver tissue were detected. RESULTS:Compared with blank control group,TNF-α, IFN-γ,IL-1β contents in serum in model group were significantly increased;liver,spleen indexes and AST,ALT,GST,AKP, T-SOD levels in liver tissue were significantly increased;and MDA level in liver tissue was significantly reduced,with statistical significances(P<0.05 or P<0.01);liver of mice in model group was cluttered,showing swelling,necrosis and other diseases in liver cells. Compared with model group, except that AST, ALT,AKP levels in liver tissue in CG-I low-dose group and MDA, IFN-γ contents in serum in CG-I medium-dose, low-dose groups had no significant decrease, other indexes were significantly improved (P<0.05 or P<0.01);and patho-logical changes in liver tissue were relieved to varying degrees. CONCLUSIONS:CG-I shows protective effect on Con-A-in-duced immunological liver injury in mice,especially the high dose and medium dose. The mechanism may be associated with its an-ti-oxidation and anti-inflammatory effects.

Ardipusilloside-I stimulates gastrointestinal motility and phosphorylation of smooth muscle myosin by myosin light chain kinase

Ardipusilloside-I is a natural triterpenoid saponin, which was isolated from Ardisia pusilla A. DC. The aim of the study was to evaluate the stimulation of ardipusilloside-I on gastrointestinal motility in vitro and in vivo. The experiment of smooth muscle contraction directly monitored the contractions of the isolated jejunal segment (IJS) in different contractile states, and the effects of ardipusilloside-I on myosin were measured in the presence of Ca²⁺-calmodulin using the activities of 20 kDa myosin light chain (MLC₂₀) phosphorylation and myosin Mg²⁺-ATPase. The effects of ardipusilloside-I on gastro emptying and intestinal transit in constipation-predominant rats were observed, and the MLCK expression in jejuna of constipated rats was determined by western blot. The results showed that, ardipusilloside-I increased the contractility of IJS in a dose-dependent manner and reversed the low contractile state (LCS) of IJS induced by low Ca²⁺, adrenaline, and atropine respectively. There were synergistic effects on contractivity of IJS between ardipusilloside-I and ACh, high Ca²⁺, and histamine, respectively. Ardipusilloside-I could stimulate the phosphorylation of MLC₂₀ and Mg²⁺-ATPase activities of Ca²⁺- dependent phosphorylated myosin. Ardipusilloside-I also stimulated the gastric emptying and intestinal transit in normal and constipated rats in vivo, respectively, and increased the MLCK expression in the jejuna of constipation-predominant rats. Briefly, the findings demonstrated that ardipusilloside-I could effectively excite gastrointestinal motility in vitro and in vivo.
