RESUMEN

Renal tubulointerstitial fibrosis (TIF) is considered as the final convergent pathway of diabetic nephropathy (DN) without effective therapies currently. MiRNAs play a key role in fibrotic diseases and become promising therapeutic targets for kidney diseases, while miRNA clusters, formed by the cluster arrangement of miRNAs on chromosomes, can regulate diverse biological functions alone or synergistically. In this study, we developed clustered miR-23a/27a/26a-loaded skeletal muscle satellite cells-derived exosomes (Exos) engineered with RVG peptide, and investigated their therapeutic efficacy in a murine model of DN. Firstly, we showed that miR-23a-3p, miR-26a-5p and miR-27a-3p were markedly decreased in serum samples of DN patients using miRNA sequencing. Meanwhile, we confirmed that miR-23a-3p, miR-26a-5p and miR-27a-3p were primarily located in proximal renal tubules and highly negatively correlated with TIF in db/db mice at 20 weeks of age. We then engineered RVG-miR-23a/27a/26a cluster loaded Exos derived from muscle satellite cells, which not only enhanced the stability of miR-23a/27a/26a cluster, but also efficiently delivered more miR-23a/27a/26a cluster homing to the injured kidney. More importantly, administration of RVG-miR-23a/27a/26a-Exos (100 µg, i.v., once a week for 8 weeks) significantly ameliorated tubular injury and TIF in db/db mice at 20 weeks of age. We revealed that miR-23a/27a/26a-Exos enhanced antifibrotic effects by repressing miRNA cluster-targeting Lpp simultaneously, as well as miR-27a-3p-targeting Zbtb20 and miR-26a-5p-targeting Klhl42, respectively. Knockdown of Lpp by injection of AAV-Lpp-RNAi effectively ameliorated the progression of TIF in DN mice. Taken together, we established a novel kidney-targeting Exo-based delivery system by manipulating the miRNA-23a/27a/26a cluster to ameliorate TIF in DN, thus providing a promising therapeutic strategy for DN.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of intraoperative lithotomy position (LP) with a head-down tilt (HDT) on the absorption of intraoperative irrigation fluid in patients undergoing bipolar plasmakinetic resection of the prostate (PKRP). METHODS: Eighty BPH patients underwent PKRP, 40 in a conventional 0-degree position (0° LP) and the other 40 in a -10-degree HDT position (-10° LP), with 0.9% saline containing 1% ethanol as intraoperative irrigation fluid. We determined the alcohol concentration in the exhaled breath of the patients with a digital alcohol detector at the start of the operation and every 10 minutes afterwards. Meanwhile we recorded the operation time, the volume of intraoperative intravenous crystalloid infusion and the weight of the resected prostatic tissue, monitored the mean arterial pressure (MAP) and heart rate (HR) at 5 minutes before surgery, 30 minutes after the start of surgery and the end of surgery, and measured the concentrations of Na+, K+, Cl- and Ca2+ with an arterial blood gas analyzer at 5 minutes before surgery and 1 hour after the start of surgery. RESULTS: There were no statistically significant differences in age, height, body weight and prostate volume, or in intraoperative MAP and HR between the 0° LP and -10° LP groups. Compared with the baseline, at 1 hour after the start of PKRP, the patients in the 0° LP group showed significantly decreased concentrations of K+ (ï¼»3.64 ± 0.29ï¼½ vs ï¼»3.49 ± 0.22ï¼½ mmol/L, P = 0.002) and Ca2+ (ï¼»1.16 ± 0.03ï¼½ vs ï¼»1.13 ± 0.04ï¼½ mmol/L, P = 0.001), increased concentration of Cl- (ï¼»106.9 ± 2.2ï¼½ vs ï¼»108.7 ± 2.3ï¼½ mmol/L, P = 0.006), but no significant difference in the concentration of Na+ (ï¼»139.7 ± 1.5ï¼½ vs ï¼»139.4 ± 1.6ï¼½ mmol/L, P = 0.231), while those in the -10° LP group exhibited remarkably decreased concentration of Ca2+ (ï¼»1.14 ± 0.04ï¼½ vs ï¼»1.13 ± 0.04ï¼½ mmol/L, P = 0.016) but no statistically significant differences in the concentrations of Na+ (ï¼»140.3 ± 1.8ï¼½ vs ï¼»140.0 ± 2.0ï¼½ mmol/L, P = 0.156), K+ (ï¼»3.49 ± 0.36ï¼½ vs ï¼»3.47 ± 0.34ï¼½ mmol/L, P = 0.506) and Cl- (ï¼»108.2 ± 2.6ï¼½ vs ï¼»109.1 ± 2.5ï¼½ mmol/L, P = 0.071). Over 1 500 ml of intraoperative irrigation fluid absorption was observed in 6 cases (15%) in the 0° LP group as compared with 4 cases (10%) in the -10°LP group, with no significant difference between the two groups. CONCLUSIONS: Lithotomy position with a 10-degree head-down tilt can reduce PKRP-induced decrease in the concentration of K+ and increase in that of Cl- without affecting the levels of the other electrolytes.

RESUMEN

Radical prostatectomy is a standard surgical strategy for prostate cancer though with a few postoperative complications such as urinary incontinence, erectile dysfunction and vesicle urethral anastomotic stricture. Post-prostatectomy incontinence, as a common complication seriously affecting the patient's quality of life, is mainly diagnosed according to the clinical symptoms and the results of urodynamic and imaging examinations. Patients with post-prostatectomy incontinence may undergo corresponding anatomic and functional changes, which can be clearly and directly observed in imaging examination. This review focuses on the advances in the imaging studies of post-prostatectomy urinary incontinence from the perspectives of MRI, ultrasound and cystourethrography.

RESUMEN

AIMS: To examine the protective effects of caffeine in rats with diabetes mellitus (DM) by using urodynamics. METHODS: Female Sprague-Dawley rats (n = 24) were divided into four groups: control group, DM group, DM + caffeine (5 mg/kg/day), and DM + caffeine (10 mg/kg/day). DM was induced by streptozotocin (STZ). Cystometric studies were conducted on all rats. After 8 weeks of treatment with caffeine, the urodynamic parameters, including bladder capacity, residual urine volume, voiding time, and peak voiding pressure, were measured. RESULTS: DM rats had a higher bladder capacity and post-void residual urine volume (PVR), an increased voiding time and peak voiding pressure, and a markedly lower voiding efficiency than the control group rats. After treatment with caffeine, bladder capacity, post-void residual urine volume, and peak voiding pressure were significant lower than those in the DM group, but voiding efficiency was markedly higher. CONCLUSION: The results suggested that caffeine (5 or 10 mg/kg/day) may improve the bladder function at 8 weeks after STZ induction. Thus, this may represent a potential strategy to increase voiding efficiency in diabetes.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVES: The present work evaluated preventive effect of curcumin on cisplatin-induced bladder cystopathy. METHODS: Fifteen female rats were divided into (i) Control group administered with physiological saline solution for 5 days; (ii) Cis-P group injected with cisplatin (6 mg/kg); and (iii) Cis-Cur group given cisplatin (6 mg/kg) with curcumin for 5 consecutive days. The function of bladder was measured by means of urodynamic analysis. Furthermore, hematoxylin-eosin staining and Masson trichrome staining were performed for morphological analysis. The cell apoptosis was evaluated through terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP-biotin nick end labeling (TUNEL) assay and flow cytometry. The expression of nerve growth factor (NGF), NF-E2-related factor 2, and hemeoxygenase-1 (HO-1) levels were measured through Western blotting. RESULTS: Urodynamic assay and histopathological manifestations revealed that curcumin ameliorated the bladder dysfunction induced by cisplatin. The level of cisplatin-induced apoptosis in the bladder decreased following curcumin treatment. Also, the increased protein expression of NGF indicated that the curcumin could offer neuroprotection for bladder against cisplatin. Curcumin also activated NRF2, and elevated the expression of HO-1, but curcumin could not rescue cisplatin-induced apoptosis in the cell lines with knockdown of NRF2. CONCLUSIONS: Taken together, the results of this paper showed that curcumin could ameliorate cisplatin-induced cystopathy and inhibit the apoptosis of bladder cell in cisplatin-treated rats. This may be attributed to curcumin's broad biological functions, particularly antioxidant effect, and to its ability to activate the NRF2 protein.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To assess the clinical efficacy of the saw palmetto fruit extract (SPFE) in the treatment of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in patients with type ⅢA prostatitis. METHODS: This retrospective study included 54 cases of type ⅢA prostatitis treated in the Outpatient Department of our hospital from January to December 2015. The patients were aged 35.06 ± 5.85 years, with a mean disease course of 3.8 ± 2.1 years, and all received oral medication of SPFE Capsules at the dose of 320 mg qd for 12 weeks. We assessed the therapeutic effects by comparing the NIH-chronic prostatitis symptom indexes (NIH-CPSI), voiding diary, International Prostate Symptom Scores (IPSS), and results of urodynamic examination before and after treatment. RESULTS: Compared with the baseline, both NIH-CPSI and IPSS were significantly decreased after medication (27.61 ± 3.76 vs 18.6 ± 5.34, P <0.01; 20.44 ± 4.51 vs 10.96±4.62, P <0.01), and urodynamic examination and voiding diary showed dramatic post-medication improvement in the average urinary flow rate (ï¼»8.05±1.42ï¼½ vs ï¼»12.05±2.60ï¼½ ml/s, P <0.01 ), maximum urinary flow rate (ï¼»14.22±1.74ï¼½ vs ï¼»21.32±4.51ï¼½ ml/s, P <0.01), residual urine volume (ï¼»46.15±16.57ï¼½ vs ï¼»14.55±10.21ï¼½ ml, P <0.01), maximum urethral closure pressure (ï¼»76.52±3.53ï¼½ vs ï¼»65.32±4.75ï¼½ cm H2O, P <0.01), mean urinary volume (ï¼»124.63±40.55ï¼½ vs ï¼»285.93±58.68ï¼½ ml, P <0.01), urination frequency (16.96±4.17 vs 8.96±2.50, P <0.01), and nocturia frequency (8.94±3.23 vs 3.15±1.90, P <0.01). No apparent adverse reactions were observed in any of the patients. CONCLUSIONS: SPFE Capsules can safely and effectively improve LUTS and thus the quality of life of patients with type ⅢA prostatitis.
