Possible role of metformin as an antidepressant in diabetes.

OBJECTIVE: Metformin (MET) is a drug used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes due to its insulin receptor sensitizing properties and anti-hepatic gluconeogenesis effect. One of the comorbidities in diabetes is the depression. This review aimed at summarizing the results of the available MET, depression and diabetes studies to clarify the possible role of MET in the depression during diabetes. METHODS: A bibliographic search on PubMed, Embase, PsycINFO, Web of Science, Cochrane Central for studies referring to MET, depression and diabetes. RESULTS: Several studies have associated depression to the chronic inflammation that characterizes diabetes. Additionally MET is an anti-inflammatory molecule that generally acts by activating AMPK and inhibiting the NF-kB factor. In the context of diabetes, MET can act directly as an anti-inflammatory drug as well as inhibiting other pro-inflammatory molecules. In this regard, MET may inhibit the pro-inflammatory effects of angiotensin II. By facilitating the action of insulin and reducing hepatic gluconeogenesis, MET reduces circulating glucose levels, decreasing the formation of advanced glycation end products and therefore inflammation. During diabetes, the gut microbiota and the permeability of the intestinal barrier are altered, causing high levels of circulating lipopolysaccharides (LPS), which induce inflammation. MET can normalize the microbiota and the intestinal barrier permeability reducing the levels of LPS and inflammation. Clinical and experimental studies show the anti-depressant effect of MET mediated by different mechanisms both at the peripheral level and in the central nervous system. CONCLUSION: Therefore, MET as an anti-inflammatory drug can decrease symptoms of depression and represents a therapeutic approach to improve the psychological state of patients with diabetes. Additionally, insulin also has an anti-inflammatory effect that could act together with MET.

Angiotensin II and post-streptococcal glomerulonephritis.

BACKGROUND: Post-streptococcal glomerulonephritis (PSGN) is a consequence of the infection by group A beta-hemolytic streptococcus. During this infection, various immunological processes generated by streptococcal antigens are triggered, such as the induction of antibodies and immune complexes. This activation of the immune system involves both innate and acquired immunity. The immunological events that occur at the renal level lead to kidney damage with chronic renal failure as well as resolution of the pathological process (in most cases). Angiotensin II (Ang II) is a molecule with vasopressor and pro-inflammatory capacities, being an important factor in various inflammatory processes. During PSGN some events are defined that make Ang II conceivable as a molecule involved in the inflammatory processes during the disease. CONCLUSION: This review is focused on defining which reported events would be related to the presence of this hormone in PSGN.

Apoptosis in post-streptococcal glomerulonephritis and mechanisms for failed of inflammation resolution.

Post-streptococcal glomerulonephritis is a condition resulting from infection by group A beta-hemolytic streptococcus. The main mechanism involves the formation of immune complexes formed in the circulation or in situ on the glomerular basement membrane, which activates complement and causes various inflammatory processes. Cellular mechanisms have been reported in the induction of kidney damage represented by the infiltration of innate cells (neutrophils and monocyte/macrophages) and adaptive cells (CD4 + lymphocytes and CD8 + lymphocytes) of the immune system. These cells induce kidney damage through various mechanisms. It has been reported that nephritogenic antigens are capable of inducing inflammatory processes early, even before the formation of immune complexes. Usually, this disease progresses towards clinical and renal normalization; however, in a smaller number of patients, it evolves into chronicity and persistent kidney damage. Hypotheses have been proposed regarding the mechanisms underlying this progression to chronicity including failure to induce apoptosis and failure to phagocytose apoptotic cells, allowing these cells to undergo membrane permeabilization and release pro-inflammatory molecules into the environment, thereby perpetuating renal inflammation. Other mechanisms involved include persistent infection, genetic background of the host's complement system, tubulointerstitial changes, and pre-existing kidney damage due to old age and comorbidities.

Angiotensin II and dengue.

Dengue is a disease caused by a flavivirus that is transmitted principally by the bite of an Aedes aegypti mosquito and represents a major public-health problem. Many studies have been carried out to identify soluble factors that are involved in the pathogenesis of this infection. Cytokines, soluble factors, and oxidative stress have been reported to be involved in the development of severe disease. Angiotensin II (Ang II) is a hormone with the ability to induce the production of cytokines and soluble factors related to the inflammatory processes and coagulation disorders observed in dengue. However, a direct involvement of Ang II in this disease has not been demonstrated. This review primarily summarizes the pathophysiology of dengue, the role of Ang II in various diseases, and reports that are highly suggestive of the involvement of this hormone in dengue.

Angiotensin II and human obesity. A narrative review of the pathogenesis / Angiotensina II y obesidad humana. Revisión narrativa de la patogénesis

Abstract Angiotensin II (Ang II) is a hormone and the main effector of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS). This peptide has crucial pathophysiological effects on hypertension, cardiac hypertrophy, endothelial proliferation, inflammation and tissue remodelling through G protein-coupled receptors. The pro-inflammatory role of Ang II has been reported in various inflammatory processes. Obesity is linked to a chronic inflammatory process which in turn is the cause of some of its morbidities. Ang II is related to the comorbidities related to the comorbidities of obesity, which include alterations in the heart, kidney, hypertension and coagulation. In this regard, activation of AT1 receptors by Ang II can induce an inflammatory process mediated by the transcription factor NF-kB, triggering inflammation in various systems that are related to the comorbidities observed in obesity. The aim of this review was to highlight the pro-inflammatory effects of Ang II and the alterations induced by this hormone in various organs and systems in obesity. The search was done since 1990 through Medline, EMBASE and PubMed, using the keywords: angiotensin II; angiotensin II, obesity; angiotensin II, kidney, obesity; angiotensin II, coagulation, obesity; angiotensin II, inflammation, obesity; angiotensin II, adipose tissue, obesity; angiotensin II, hypertension, obesity; angiotensin II, insulin resistance, obesity; angiotensin II, adiponectin, leptin, obesity; angiotensin II, COVID-19, obesity. Angiotensin II through its interaction with its AT1 receptor, can induce alterations in diverse systems that are related to the comorbidities observed in obesity. Therapeutic strategies to decrease the production and action of Ang II could improve the clinical conditions in individuals with obesity.

Resumen La angiotensina II (Ang II) es una hormona y el principal efector del sistema renina-angiotensina (SRA). Este péptido tiene importantes efectos fisiopatológicos en la hipertensión, la hipertrofia cardíaca, la proliferación endotelial, la inflamación y la remodelación tisular a través de receptores acoplados a la proteína G. El papel pro-inflamatorio de la Ang II se ha reportado en diversos procesos inflamatorios. La obesidad está ligada a un proceso inflamatorio crónico que a su vez es causa de algunas de sus morbilidades. Se ha demostrado que la Ang II está relacionada con las comorbilidades de la obesidad, que incluyen alteraciones en el corazón, el riñón, la hipertensión y la coagulación. En este sentido, la activación de los receptores AT1 por la Ang II puede inducir un proceso inflamatorio mediado por el factor de transcripción NFkB desencadenado inflamación en diversos sistemas que se relacionan con las co-morbilidades observadas en la obesidad. El propósito de esta revisión fue destacar el efecto pro-inflamatorio de la Ang II y las alteraciones inducidas por esta hormona en diversos órganos y sistemas en la obesidad. La búsqueda se hizo desde 1990 a través de Medline, EMBASE and PubMed, utilizando las palabras clave: angiotensina II; angiotensina II, obesidad; angiotensina II, riñón, obesidad; angiotensina II, coagulación, obesidad; angiotensina II, inflamación, obesidad; angiotensin II, adipose tissue, obesidad; angiotensin II, hipertensión, obesidad; angiotensin II, resistencia a la insulina, obesidad; angiotensin II, adiponectina, leptina, obesidad; angiotensina II, COVID-19, obesidad. La angiotensina II a través de su interacción con su receptor AT1 puede inducir alteraciones en diversos sistemas que están relacionados con las comorbilidades observadas en la obesidad. Estrategias terapeúticas para disminuir su producción y la acción de la AngII pudieran mejorar las condiciones clínicas en individuos con obesidad.

Arracacia xanthorrhiza Bancr compounds decrease β-actin, hypoxia-inducible factor-1 and nitric oxide production in HeLa cells / Los componentes de la Arracacia xanthorrhiza Bancr disminuyen las producciones de la actina β, del factor-1 inducible por la hipoxia y del óxido nítrico en células Hela

Abstract The treatment of cancer patients with anti-cancer drugs is often accompanied by the presence of undesirable side effects. The use of natural plant derivatives alone, or in conjunction with existing anti-neoplastic drugs, has been suggested to obtain better results and decrease these side effects. Nitric oxide (NO•), the hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1), and decreased concentration of actin play important roles in cancer progression. The beneficial effects of polyphenols in various organ disorders including cancer has been reported. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of Arracacia xanthorrhiza Bancr extracts, white (WAXB) and red (RAXB) variants (compounds rich in polyphenols) on the concentrations of β-actin, NO• and HIF-1 in Hela cells cultures, to uncover possible anti-neoplastic effects. Extracts from the plant leaves were added to Hela cell cultures at a concentration of 10-3 mg/mL, and after 24 hours of culture, the concentrations of β-actin, NO• and HIF-1 were determined by immunohistochemical, biochemical and western blot assays. Both extracts reduced the concentrations of β-actin, NO• and HIF-1 (p<0.001), similar to the methotrexate effect. These results suggest an antineoplastic effect of the studied plant extracts and highlight the possibility of their use in the treatment of neoplasms.

Resumen El tratamiento de pacientes con cáncer utilizando drogas-antineoplásicas presenta problemas relacionados con efectos colaterales indeseables. Se ha sugerido el uso de derivados de plantas naturales solas, o en combinación con drogas antineoplásicas existentes para obtener mejores resultados y disminuir los efectos colaterales. Así mismo, se ha reportado que el óxido nítrico (NO•), el factor-1 inducible por hipoxia (HIF-1) y la disminución de la expresión de la actina tienen un papel en la progresión del cáncer. También se ha reportado los efectos beneficiosos de lo polifenoles en varios desordenes orgánicos, incluyendo el cáncer. El objetivo de este estudio fue determinar los efectos de los extractos procedentes de la Arracacia xanthorrhiza Bancr blanca (AXBB) y la variedad roja (AXBR) (compuestos ricos en polifenoles) en las concentraciones de la actina-beta, el NO• y el HIF-1 en cultivo de células Hela, para destacar sus posibles efectos antineoplásicos. A los cultivos de células Hela se les agregaron los extractos de las hojas de AXBB o AXBR (10-3 mg/mL, concentración final) y después de 24 horas de cultivo se determinaron las concentraciones de la actina-beta, el NO• y el HIF-1 por métodos inmunohistoquímicos, bioquímicos y western blot. Ambos extractos disminuyeron las concentraciones de la actina-beta, el NO• y el HIF-1 (p<0,001) de una manera similar al efecto del metotrexato. Estos resultados sugieren un efecto antineoplásico de estos extractos y destacan la posibilidad de ser usados para el tratamiento de las neoplasias.

Elevación del índice neutrófilo/linfocito y su relación con la proteína C reactiva en pacientes con diabetes mellitus tipo 2 / Elevation of the neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio and its relationship to C-reactive protein in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus

Introducción: la proporción entre el recuento absoluto de neutrófilos y el recuento absoluto de linfocitos (índice de neutrófilos/linfocitos, INL) se ha convertido en los últimos años en un marcador crucial de inflamación sistémica, y se ha descrito que su elevación se relaciona con numerosas enfermedades inflamatorias crónicas. Objetivos: determinar el índice de neutrófilos/linfocitos (INL) en pacientes con diabetes mellitus tipo 2 (DM2), comparar con no diabéticos y establecer su correlación con la concentración de proteína C reactiva ultrasensible en una población de la localidad de Riobamba, Ecuador.

Se seleccionaron 80 individuos para participar en el proyecto: 25 sujetos controles y 55 pacientes con diagnóstico de DM2. A cada sujeto se le extrajo una muestra de sangre en ayunas para la determinación de glucosa, colesterol total, triglicéridos, HDL colesterol, LDL colesterol, proteína C reactiva ultrasensible (PCR-us), hemoglobina glicosilada (HbA1c), recuento total de leucocitos, neutrófilos y linfocitos. Resultados: se encontró un incremento significativo en la concentración de glucosa (p<0,0001), HbA1c (p<0,0001), índice de masa corporal (IMC) (p<0,0001), PCR-us (p<0,0001), recuento absoluto de neutrófilos (p=0,001), recuento absoluto de linfocitos (p=0,04) e INL (p=0,0005), y una reducción significativa del HDL colesterol (p=0,02) en los pacientes con DM2 vs los controles. Se observó una correlación positiva (p<0,0001; r=0,7774) entre el INL y la PCR-us en los pacientes con DM2. Conclusiones: los pacientes con DM2 experimentaron elevación en el INL que se correlacionó con el incremento en la concentración de la PCR-us.

Introduction: the ratio between the absolute neutrophil count and the absolute lymphocyte count (neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio, NLR) has become a crucial marker of systemic inflammation in recent years, and its elevation has been described as being related to numerous chronic inflammatory diseases. Objectives: to determine the neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), to compare with non-diabetics and to establish its correlation with the concentration of ultrasensitive C-reactive protein in a population of the town of Riobamba, Ecuador. Materials and methods: a descriptive, correlational, crosssectional, research was conducted from July 2019 to February 2020. Eighty individuals were selected to participate in the project, 25 control subjects and 55 patients with a diagnosis of T2DM. Each subject had a fasting blood sample drawn for the determination of glucose, total cholesterol, triglycerides, HDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, ultrasensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), total leukocyte count, neutrophils and lymphocytes. Results: a significant increase in glucose concentration (p<0.0001), HbA1c (p<0.0001), body mass index (BMI) (p<0.0001), hs-CRP (p<0.0001), absolute neutrophil count (p=0.001), absolute lymphocyte count (p=0.04), and NLR (p=0.0005), and a significant reduction in HDL cholesterol (p=0.02), were found in patients with T2DM vs controls. A positive correlation (p<0.0001; r=0.7774) was observed between NLR and hs-CRP in patients with T2DM. Conclusions: patients with T2DM experience elevation in NLR which correlates with increase in hs-CRP concentration.

C-reactive protein as an effector molecule in Covid-19 pathogenesis.

The current pandemic caused by SARS-CoV-2 virus infection is known as Covid-19 (coronavirus disease 2019). This disease can be asymptomatic or can affect multiple organ systems. Damage induced by the virus is related to dysfunctional activity of the immune system, but the activity of molecules such as C-reactive protein (CRP) as a factor capable of inducing an inflammatory status that may be involved in the severe evolution of the disease, has not been extensively evaluated. A systematic review was performed using the NCBI-PubMed database to find articles related to Covid-19 immunity, inflammatory response, and CRP published from December 2019 to December 2020. High levels of CRP were found in patients with severe evolution of Covid-19 in which several organ systems were affected and in patients who died. CRP activates complement, induces the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and induces apoptosis which, together with the inflammatory status during the disease, can lead to a severe outcome. Several drugs can decrease the level or block the effect of CRP and might be useful in the treatment of Covid-19. From this review it is reasonable to conclude that CRP is a factor that can contribute to severe evolution of Covid-19 and that the use of drugs able to lower CRP levels or block its activity should be evaluated in randomized controlled clinical trials.

La desventaja de los hombres frente a la Covid-19: análisis de la influencia del sexo sobre la respuesta inmunitaria ante la infección por SARS-Cov-2 / The disadvantage of men against COVID-19: analysis of the influence of sex on the immune response to SARS-CoV-2 infection

mundo se encuentra en medio de la pandemia de la enfermedad por coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19). En la mayoría de los países, la tasa de mortalidad, así como, la severidad de la enfermedad es más alta en hombres que en mujeres. Este sesgo sexual sugiere que los hombres son más propensos a desarrollar complicaciones graves o a sucumbir a las mismas, lo que conduce a la muerte. Por lo tanto, es importante comprender los elementos biológicos basados en el sexo que inciden en la respuesta inmunitaria. El objetivo de ésta revisión fue hacer un análisis en relación a la evidencia disponible sobre los diferentes factores que permitirían explicar esta disparidad sexual. Abordamos las diferencias en la respuesta inmunitaria en ambos sexos tomando en cuenta el aspecto genético, hormonal y el papel del sistema renina-angiotensina. Para ello, se realizó una búsqueda minuciosa en diferentes bases de datos utilizando las siguientes palabras clave: (Diferencia de sexo, genética, hormonas sexuales, COVID-19, SARS-CoV-2, respuesta inmunitaria, inflamación, hombres, mujeres). Los resultados de nuestro análisis ofrecen una comprensión más clara sobre la influencia de las diferencias sexuales en la capacidad de respuesta a una infección, con especial énfasis en la infección por SARS-CoV-2. Conocer estos factores no solo ayudará a comprender mejor la patogenia de la COVID-19, sino, además, guiará el diseño de terapias efectivas para la medicina personalizada basada en las diferencias sexuales

The world is during the 2019 coronavirus disease pandemic (COVID-19). In most countries, the mortality rate, as well as, the severity of the disease is higher in men than in women. This sex bias suggests that men are more likely to develop severe complications or succumb to severe complications, leading to death. Therefore, it is important to understand the sex-based biological elements that influence the immune response. The aim of this review was to review the available evidence on the different factors that could explain this sex disparity. We addressed the differences in the immune response in both sexes taking into account genetic, hormonal and the role of the renin-angiotensin system. For this purpose, a thorough search was performed in different databases using the following keywords: (Sex difference, genetics, sex hormones, COVID-19, SARS-CoV-2, immune response, inflammation, men, women). The results of our analysis provide a clearer understanding on the influence of sex differences on the ability to respond to an infection, with special emphasis to SARS-CoV-2 infection. Knowing these factors will not only help to better understand the pathogenesis of COVID-19, but will also guide the design of effective therapies for personalized medicine based on sex differences.

SARS-CoV-2 infection represents a high risk for the elderly: analysis of pathogenesis.

As people get older, age-related alterations occur that lead to increased susceptibility to disease. In the current COVID-19 pandemic, older people are particularly susceptible to a SARS-CoV-2 infection developing into severe disease. The objective of this review was to examine the literature regarding factors that may explain the tendency of this population to develop severe COVID-19. Research articles considered in this review were searched for in EMBASE, PubMed, and Web of Science from December 2019 to December 2020. Citations were screened by two independent reviewers. Studies of the immune system in older individuals found alterations in both the adaptive and innate immune systems. The adaptive system is depressed in its functions, and the innate system is in a pro-inflammatory state that can lead to chronic disease. This pro-inflammatory state may be related to a severe course of disease in COVID-19. This review shows that the level of evidence supporting an association between immune alterations in the elderly and susceptibly to severe progression of SARS-CoV-2 infection is generally consistent. Preventive measures such as early antiviral treatment are of key importance for prevention of severe progression of COVID19.

Nanoantibodies: small molecules, big possibilities.

Camelids (camels, dromedaries, alpacas, llamas, and vicuñas) contain in their serum conventional heterodimeric antibodies as well as antibodies with no light chains (L) in their structure and composed of only heavy chains (H), called as HcAbs (heavy chain antibodies). Variable fragments derived from these antibodies, called as VHH or nanoantibodies (Nbs), have also been described. Since their discovery, Nbs have been widely used in the fields of research, diagnostics, and pharmacotherapy. Despite being approximately one-tenth the size of a conventional antibody, they retain similar specificity and affinity to conventional antibodies and are much easier to clone and manipulate. Their unique properties such as small size, high stability, strong antigen binding affinity, water solubility, and natural origin make them suitable for the development of biopharmaceuticals and nanoreagents. The present review aims to describe the main structural and biochemical characteristics of these antibodies and to provide an update on their applications in research, biotechnology, and medicine. For this purpose, an exhaustive search of the biomedical literature was performed in the following databases: Medline (PubMed), Google Scholar, and ScienceDirect. Meta-analyses, observational studies, review articles, and clinical guidelines were reviewed. Only original articles were considered to assess the quality of the evidence.

Tetracycline and viruses: a possible treatment for COVID-19?

Tetracyclines have been used to treat many bacterial infections. The use of these antibiotics for the treatment of viral diseases dates to the 1960s to 1970s. Over the decades, the effect of tetracyclines on the pathogenesis of viral infections has been demonstrated both clinically and experimentally. Tetracyclines can act on viral infections either through their antibacterial properties or through direct antiviral action. This review focuses on clinical and experimental data that support the use of tetracycline in treating viral infections and highlights an important approach to slowing disease progression during viral infections. Tetracycline treatment might represent a strategy for eliminating the infection or inhibiting the progression of COVID-19.

Envejecimiento inflamatorio e inmunosenescencia, la posible respuesta a la severidad de la COVID-19 en los adultos mayores. Revisión Narrativa / Inflammaging and immunosenescence, the possible response to the severity of COVID-19 in older people. Narrative Review

La infección por SARS-CoV-2 varía ampliamente con la edad, siendo generalmente más severa en los adultos mayores. En muchos de estos pacientes, puede desencadenarse un síndrome de tormenta de citocinas, caracterizado por una elevación sistémica de varias citocinas proinflamatorias, lo que podría inducir un síndrome de dificultad respiratoria aguda (SDRA), neumonía, insuficiencia orgánica múltiple y finalmente la muerte. Durante el envejecimiento, el sistema inmunitario puede experimentar una disminución gradual de su función llamada "inmunosenescencia", lo cual dificulta el reconocimiento, la señalización y la eliminación de amenazas. También se ha descrito un leve aumento crónico de la inflamación sistémica denominada "envejecimiento inflamatorio", fenómeno implicado en trastornos como diabetes mellitus, Alzheimer y aterosclerosis. Una gran cantidad de datos recientes que describen la patología y los cambios moleculares en pacientes con COVID-19 apuntan a la inmunosenescencia y al envejecimiento inflamatorio como los principales impulsores de las altas tasas de mortalidad en los pacientes mayores. El objetivo de esta revisión es analizar los datos experimentales y las observaciones clínicas que vinculan el envejecimiento inflamatorio y la inmunosenescencia con la fisiopatología de la COVID-19 en adultos mayores con infección grave

SARS-CoV-2 infection varies widely with age, generally being more severe in older adults. In many of these patients, a cytokine storm syndrome can be triggered, characterized by a systemic elevation of several pro-inflammatory cytokines, which could induce acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), pneumonia, as well as multiple organ failure and ultimately death. During aging, the immune system can experience a gradual decline in immune function called immunosenescence, which makes it difficult to recognize, signal, and eliminate threats. A slight chronic increase in systemic inflammation called inflammatory aging, a phenomenon implicated in disorders such as diabetes mellitus, Alzheimer's and atherosclerosis, has also been described. A large body of recent data describing pathology and molecular changes in COVID- 19 patients points to immunosenescence and inflammatory aging as the main drivers of high death rates in older patients. The objective of this review is to summarize the experimental data and clinical observations that link inflammaging and immunosenescence with the pathophysiology of COVID-19 in severely infected older people

Efecto quimiotáctico de los sobrenadantes de cultivos de glomerulos de rata normal sobre macrófagos peritoneales / Chemotactic effect of the supernatants of normal rats glomerular cultures on peritoneal macrophages

En estudios previos se ha determinado que el mesangio glomerular es repoblado periodicamente por células LC+ e Ia+ procedentes de la médula ósea. El presente estudio fue realizado con el objeto de determinar si el glomerulo normal de rata era capaz de producir substancias con capacidad de atraer células (quimiotaxis) provenientes de la médula ósea (macrófagos) y de esta manera acondicionar la penetración en el mesangio de estas células. Para los efectos, se estudiaron los sobrenadantes de cultivos de glomérulos provenientes de ratas normales; encontrándose efecto quiomiotáctico sobre macrófagos obtenidos de la cavidad peritonial de la rata. A su vez, con el objeto de identificar a las posibles substancias que pudiesen causar el efecto quimiotáctico se analizaron en los sobrenadantes la presencia de Fibronectina e Interleucina 1 (ambas substancias quimiotácticas para células del sistema monocito/macrofago). En todos los sobrenadantes se apreció la presencia de ambas substancias. Se concluye de estos resultados que la repoblación del mesangio por parte de células del sistema monocito/macrofago puede ser debida a la presencia de substancias quimiotácticas producidas por el glomérulo y que estas substancias podrían ser la Fibronectina, la Interleucina 1 o ambas
