Background  

The broad range in growth observed in short prepubertal children receiving the same growth hormone (GH) dose is due to individual variation in GH responsiveness. This study used a pharmaco-proteomic approach in order to identify novel biomarkers that discriminate between short non-GH-deficient (GHD) children who show a good or poor growth response to GH treatment.  相似文献

Objective:

There are clear sex differences in the distribution of visceral adipose tissue (VAT) and subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) in adults, with males having more VAT and less SAT than females. This study assessed whether these differences between the sexes were already present in preschool children. It also evaluated which measures of body composition were most appropriate for assessing abdominal obesity in this age group.

Design and Methods:

One‐hundred and five children (57 boys and 48 girls) participated in the study. Body composition was measured using dual‐energy X‐ray absorptiometry (DXA). Weight, height, and waist circumference (WC) were also recorded. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the entire abdomen using sixteen 10‐mm‐thick T1‐weighted slices was performed in a subgroup of 48 children (30 boys and 18 girls); SAT and VAT volumes were measured using semiautomated segmentation.

Results:

Boys had significantly more VAT than girls (0.17 versus 0.10 l, P < 0.001). Results showed that VAT correlated significantly with all measurements of anthropometry (P < 0.01) after adjusting for SAT and for total fat mass measured with DXA. The mean limits of agreement between DXA and MRI regarding truncal FM were calculated to be ?11.4 (range ?17.8 to ?3.6), using a Bland–Altman plot.

Conclusion:

Sex differences in adipose tissue distribution are apparent at an early age. MRI is the best method with which to study abdominal fat distribution in young children.

Regulation of lymphocyte survival is essential for the maintenance of lymphoid homeostasis preventing the development of autoimmune diseases. Recently, we described a systemic lupus erythematosus associated with an IgA nephropathy in autoimmune-prone (NZW x C57BL/6)F(1) overexpressing human Bcl-2 (hBcl-2) in B cells (transgenic (Tg) 1). In the present study, we analyze in detail a second line of hBcl-2 Tg mice overexpressing the transgene in all B cells and in a fraction of CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells (Tg2). We demonstrate here that the overexpression of hBcl-2 in T cells observed in Tg2 mice is associated with a resistance to the development of lupus disease and collagen type II-induced arthritis in both (NZW x C57BL/6)F(1) and (DBA/1 x C57BL/6)F(1) Tg2 mice, respectively. The disease-protective effect observed in autoimmune-prone Tg2 mice is accompanied by an increase of peripheral CD4(+)CD25(+) hBcl-2(+) regulatory T cells (T(regs)), expressing glucocorticoid-induced TNFR, CTLA-4, and FoxP3. Furthermore, the in vivo depletion of CD4(+)CD25(+) T(regs) in (DBA/1 x C57BL/6)F(1) Tg2 mice promotes the development of a severe collagen type II-induced arthritis. Taken together, our results indicate that the overexpression of hBcl-2 in CD4(+) T cells alters the homeostatic mechanisms controlling the number of CD4(+)CD25(+) T(regs) resulting in the inhibition of autoimmune diseases.  相似文献

Inhibition of gene expression can be achieved with RNA interference (RNAi) or U1 small nuclear RNA-snRNA-interference (U1i). U1i is based on U1 inhibitors (U1in), U1 snRNA molecules modified to inhibit polyadenylation of a target pre-mRNA. In culture, we have shown that the combination of RNAi and U1i results in stronger inhibition of reporter or endogenous genes than that obtained using either of the techniques alone. We have now used these techniques to inhibit gene expression in mice. We show that U1ins can induce strong inhibition of the expression of target genes in vivo. Furthermore, combining U1i and RNAi results in synergistic inhibitions also in mice. This is shown for the inhibition of hepatitis B virus (HBV) sequences or endogenous Notch1. Surprisingly, inhibition obtained by combining a U1in and a RNAi mediator is higher than that obtained by combining two U1ins or two RNAi mediators. Our results suggest that RNAi and U1i cooperate by unknown mechanisms to result in synergistic inhibitions. Analysis of toxicity and specificity indicates that expression of U1i inhibitors is safe. Therefore, we believe that the combination of RNAi and U1i will be a good option to block damaging endogenous genes, HBV and other infectious agents in vivo.  相似文献

Molecular profiling of human biopsies and surgical specimens is frequently complicated by their inherent biological heterogeneity and by the need to conserve tissue for clinical diagnosis. We have developed a set of novel 'tissue print' and 'print-phoresis' technologies to facilitate tissue and tumor-marker profiling under these circumstances. Tissue printing transfers cells and extracellular matrix components from a tissue surface onto nitrocellulose membranes, generating a two-dimensional anatomical image on which molecular markers can be visualized by specific protein and RNA- and DNA-detection techniques. Print-phoresis is a complementary new electrophoresis method in which thin strips from the print are subjected to polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, providing a straightforward interface between the tissue-print image and gel-based proteomic techniques. Here we have utilized these technologies to identify and characterize markers of tumor invasion of the prostate capsule, an event generally not apparent to the naked eye that may result in tumor at the surgical margins ('positive margins'). We have also shown that tissue-print technologies can provide a general platform for the generation of marker maps that can be superimposed directly onto histopathological and radiological images, permitting molecular identification and classification of individual malignant lesions.  相似文献
