Motor strategy patterns study of diabetic neuropathic individuals while walking. A wavelet approach

The aim of this study was to investigate muscle?s energy patterns and spectral properties of diabetic neuropathic individuals during gait cycle using wavelet approach. Twenty-one diabetic patients diagnosed with peripheral neuropathy, and 21 non-diabetic individuals were assessed during the whole gait cycle. Activation patterns of vastus lateralis, medial gastrocnemius and tibialis anterior were studied by means of bipolar surface EMG. The signal?s energy and frequency were compared between groups using t-test. The energy was compared in each frequency band (7–542 Hz) using ANOVAs for repeated measures for each group and each muscle. The diabetic individuals displayed lower energies in lower frequency bands for all muscles and higher energies in higher frequency bands for the extensors? muscles. They also showed lower total energy of gastrocnemius and a higher total energy of vastus, considering the whole gait cycle. The overall results suggest a change in the neuromuscular strategy of the main extensor muscles of the lower limb of diabetic patients to compensate the ankle extensor deficit to propel the body forward and accomplish the walking task.

Urinary and plasma proteomics to discover biomarkers for diagnosing between diabetic nephropathy and minimal change nephrotic syndrome or membranous nephropathy

The choice of treatment for primary nephrotic syndrome depends on the pathologic type of the disorder. Renal biopsy is necessary for a definitive diagnosis, but it is burdensome for the patients, and can be avoided if tests could be performed using urine or plasma. In this study, we analyzed 100 urinary proteins, 141 plasma proteins, and 57 urine/plasma ratios in cases of diabetic nephropathy (DN; n = 11), minimal change nephrotic syndrome (MCNS; n = 14), and membranous nephropathy (MN; n = 23). We found that the combination of urinary retinol-binding protein 4 and SH3 domain-binding glutamic acid-rich-like protein 3 could distinguish between MCNS and DN, with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.9740. On the other hand, a selectivity index (SI) based on serotransferrin and immunoglobulin G, which is often used in clinical practice, distinguished them with an AUC of 0.9091. Similarly, the combination of urinary afamin and complement C3 urine/plasma ratio could distinguish between MN and DN with an AUC of 0.9842, while SI distinguished them with an AUC of 0.8538. Evidently, the candidates identified in this study were superior to the SI method. Thus, the aim was to test these biomarkers for accurate diagnosis and to greatly reduce the burden on patients.     

Effect of Sorbinil on myo-Inositol Metabolism in Cultured Neuroblastoma Cells Exposed to Increased Glucose Levels

Neuroblastoma cells were used to determine the effect of sorbinil on myo-inositol metabolism in cells exposed to elevated levels of glucose in culture. Exposing cells to elevated levels of glucose led to an increase in levels of intracellular sorbitol. The increase in sorbitol levels was dependent on the extracellular glucose concentration. In contrast, the myo-inositol content of cells was decreased in the presence of increasing concentrations of extracellular glucose. Increasing the concentration of glucose in the culture medium caused a decrease in myo-inositol uptake and in the incorporation of extracellular myo-inositol into phospholipid. The effect of elevated glucose levels on myo-inositol metabolism and sorbitol accumulation was blocked by addition of 0.4 mM sorbinil. The ability of sorbinil to block the decrease in myo-inositol metabolism and sorbitol accumulation caused by 30 mM extracellular glucose was dependent on its concentration. Maximal effects were obtained with 0.4 mM sorbinil. However, there was some variation in the degree of effectiveness among batches of sorbinil. These results at the cellular level suggest that the intracellular accumulation of sorbitol is responsible for the alteration of myo-inositol metabolism observed in neuroblastoma cells exposed to elevated glucose concentrations.
