Osteoporosis is a significant complication of a multifactoral etiology associated with inflammatory bowel disease. The aim of study was to evaluate the relationships between bone mineral density as well as bone turnover markers and inflammatory activity modulators (i.e., PGE2 and TGFbeta1) in ulcerative colitis (UC). Twenty-one active ulcerative colitis subjects and 14 healthy individuals were included into the study. We observed no significant differences in serum concentrations of osteoprotegerin and osteocalcin, as well as bone mineral density between UC patients and healthy individuals. Plasma concentrations of PGE2, TGFbeta1 and TNF-alpha were significantly higher in UC patients than in controls. Serum osteocalcin demonstrated a positive correlation with both serum PGE2 and plasma TGFbeta1. Moreover there was significant correlation between osteoprotegerin and TGFbeta1 as well as serum TNF-alpha concentrations. In conclusion a positive association between PGE2 and TGFbeta1 and bone formation markers-osteoprotegerin and osteocalcin, as well as a comparable BMD in UC patients and healthy individuals was shown. Our results may indicate that increase of PGE2 as well as TGFbeta1 concentrations may play a protective role against bone loss in ulcerative colitis patients. 相似文献

Effect of ulcerative colitis treatment on transforming growth factor beta(1) in plasma and rectal mucosa 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of active ulcerative colitis (UC) treatment on transforming growth factor beta(1) (TGF-beta(1)) concentration in plasma and rectal mucosa measured in 28 patients. The highest plasma values were observed in patients with the severe course of the disease (74.2+/-14.0 ng/ml), and they were significantly higher than in the group with mild one (43.7+/-5.6 ng/ml). Mean TGF-beta(1) measured in mucosal samples from patients with severe UC (563+/-146 pg/mg protein) doubled values from patients with mild UC (286+/-65 pg/mg protein). Plasma and mucosal TGF-beta(1) correlated significantly with disease activity index (DAI) and clinical activity index (CAI). Plasma TGF-beta(1) correlated additionally with scored endoscopic degree of mucosal injury. Treatment caused significant decrease of plasma and mucosal TGF-beta(1) concentrations. Patients who responded completely had higher baseline plasma and mucosal TGF-beta(1) that decreased significantly after the treatment. These results show that plasma and mucosal concentrations of transforming growth factor beta(1) are strongly associated with ulcerative colitis activity, and successful treatment of the disease results with decrease of their levels. More effective response to the treatment can be achieved in patients with higher baseline concentrations of TGF-beta(1). 相似文献

Effect of ulcerative colitis activity on plasma concentration of transforming growth factor beta1 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Enhanced expression of transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1) demonstrated in human colonic mucosa of patients with ulcerative colitis (UC), indicates its possible significance in the pathogenesis of this disease. The aim of this study was to evaluate plasma TGF-beta1 concentration in patients with different degrees of colonic mucosal injury, as a possible indicator of ulcerative colitis activity. TGF-beta1 concentration was measured with an enzyme immunoassay (EIA) in plasma of 45 patients with endoscopically confirmed UC. Values observed in UC patients (40.5+/-15.9 ng/ml) were significantly higher than in healthy people (18.3+/-11.6 ng/ml) and higher than in patients with irritable colon syndrome (ICS), (20.5+/-13.6 ng/ml). The highest plasma TGF-beta1 (58.6+/-112.1 ng/ml) was in patients with the severe UC course. TGF-beta1 level analysed in all UC patients revealed significant positive correlation with scored degree of mucosal injury (r=0.396;P<0.01). Among other possible laboratory markers of the disease activity, only C-reactive protein concentration demonstrated significant correlation. Enhanced production of TGF-beta1 can be related to inflammation activity. Measurement of plasma TGF-beta1 may be considered as a biomarker of the disease activity. 相似文献

Vasoactive intestinal polypeptide (VIP) is a 28 amino acid peptide which is localised in both the central and peripheral nervous system. In the human colon VIP is found in all layers and the highest concentrations have been found in the myenteric plexus. It is known that VIP has various effects on intestinal functions: i) it is a potent stimulant of mucosal water and electrolyte secretion: ii) it is involved in the peristaltic reflex: and iii) plays an inhibitory role on immune cell function. Based on these biological effects it has been hypothesized that the intestinal mucosal immune system and inflammation may be influenced by alterations in the tissue concentrations of VIP. Some authors have demonstrated no changes in the VIP colonic content of patients with ulcerative colitis, whereas others have demonstrated a reduction. Our results, using specific radioimmunoassay, showed that there is a significant decrease of VIP in both rectal and colonic mucosa of patients with ulcerative colitis as compared to controls. The VIP decrease is selective since substance P and calcitonin gene-related peptide were unchanged in the mucosal tissue of ulcerative colitis patients and furthermore the VIP alteration is correlated to the degree of mucosal inflammation. These findings suggest that the reduction of VIP mucosal content, even if it represents a non-specific event, could influence local inflammatory response and the activity of the disease. 相似文献

Milk fat globule-epidermal growth factor 8 (MFG-E8) plays an important role in maintaining intestinal barrier homeostasis and accelerating intestinal restitution. However, studies of MFG-E8 expression in humans with ulcerative colitis are lacking. We examined MFG-E8 expression in colonic mucosal biopsies from ulcerative colitis patients and healthy controls (n = 26 each) by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR), Western blot analysis and immunohistochemistry. MFG-E8 mRNA and protein expression was lower in ulcerative colitis patients than in controls. MFG-E8 expression was inversely correlated with mucosal inflammatory activity and clinical disease activity in patients. MFG-E8 was present in human intestinal epithelial cells both in vivo and in vitro. Apoptosis induction was also detected in the intestinal epithelium of ulcerative colitis patients by terminal-deoxynucleoitidyl transferase mediated nick-end labeling assay. We used lentiviral vectors encoding human MFG-E8 targeting short hairpin RNA to obtain MFG-E8 knockdown intestinal epithelia cell clones. MFG-E8 knockdown could promote apoptosis in intestinal epithelial cell lines, accompanied by a decrease in level of the antiapoptotic protein B-cell lymphoma 2 (BCL-2) and induction of the proapoptotic protein BCL2-associated protein X (BAX). The addition of recombinant human MFG-E8 led to decreased BAX and cleaved caspase-3 levels and induction of BCL-2 level in intestinal epithelia cells. MFG-E8 knockdown also attenuated wound healing on scratch assay of intestinal epithelial cells. The mRNA level of intestinal trefoid factor 3, a pivotal factor in intestinal epithelial cell migration and restitution, was downregulated with MFG-E8 knockdown. In conclusion, we demonstrated that decreased colonic MFG-E8 expression in patients with ulcerative colitis may be associated with mucosal inflammatory activity and clinical disease activity through basal cell apoptosis and preventing tissue healing in the pathogenesis of ulcerative colitis. 相似文献

We evaluated the effect of medically induced symptomatic disease improvement on in vitro tests of cell-mediated immune responses in 33 patients with Crohn''s disease. When results obtained in 17 patients with ulcerative colitis were compared with those of 10 patients with ulcerative colitis who had undergone a colectomy, no significant correlation was detected between individual clinical and laboratory variables or the Crohn''s disease activity index and in vitro tests of cell-mediated immunity. A different pattern emerged from the longitudinal tests of cell-mediated immunity: when these test results were initially abnormal in patients with Crohn''s disease, clinical improvement as assessed by the Crohn''s disease activity index was associated with normalizing cell-mediated immunity. In contrast, when the test results were initially normal, clinical improvement was not associated with any change in the immune response. Following colectomy in patients with ulcerative colitis, some abnormalities of suppressed immune responses remained, although patients were cured of their disease. Factors other than clinical disease activity may be responsible for the suppressed immunoresponsiveness in some patients with inflammatory bowel disease, and variable changes in cell-mediated immunity occur after both surgical and medical treatment. 相似文献

Summary. Nitric oxide synthase (NOS) activities are responsible for the enzymatic conversion of L-arginine into NO and L-citrulline.
Relatively low amounts of NO are produced in intestinal epithelial cells or are released from nerve endings. The effects of
NO production are related to the maintenance of epithelial integrity and permeability. A pathological role of an increased
NO production has been suggested to play a role in models of experimental colitis. In humans, NOS activity in colon mucosa
from patients with ulcerative colitis is clearly increased when compared with the activity of the control group. In contrast,
an increase of NOS activity in the colon mucosa from patients with Crohn's disease remains controversial. In the present work,
we have measured NOS activity in colon biopsies originating from the control group (n = 16), from patients with ulcerative
colitis (n = 23) and Crohn's disease (n = 17) using the radiochemical method of the conversion of L-[guanido-14C] arginine into radioactive L-citrulline. In the control group, NOS activity was mainly of the inducible type (88% of total
NOS activity) since it was characterised by its insensibility to the absence of calcium in the assay medium. In colon biopsies
originating from patients with ulcerative colitis, inducible NOS activity was increased 3 fold (p < 0.005) and in patients
with Crohn's disease, inducible NOS activity was increased 5 fold (p < 0.005). Correlations between NOS activity in colon
biopsies and the intensity parameters of the disease i.e. Truelove index, endoscopic score and histo-logical parameters were
evidenced in patients with ulcerative colitis. In contrast, in patients with Crohn's disease, the high inducible NOS activity
was not correlated with any intensity parameters of the disease. From these data, we concluded that although inducible NOS
activity was increased several fold in colon biopsies originating from patients with both ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease,
a correlation between this activity and the severity of bowel inflammation was not found in either cases.

Ulcerative colitis (colitis ulcerosa) is a non-specific inflammatory bowel disease of unknown etiology. The symptoms which are observed in the course of ulcerative colitis are: an increase in the number of leukocytes and blood platelets, an increase in the concentration of IL-6 and anemia. Blood platelets are the key element, linking the processes of hemostasis, inflammation and the repair of damaged tissues. Activation of blood platelets is connected with changes in their shape and the occurrence of the reaction of release. P-selectin appears on the surfaces of activated blood platelets and the concentration level of soluble P-selectin increases in the blood plasma. The aim of this study was to define whether the increased number of blood platelets in patients with ulcerative colitis accompanies changes in their activation and morphology. A total of 16 subjects with ulcerative colitis and 32 healthy subjects were studied. Mean platelet count, morphological parameters of platelets and MPC were measured using an ADVIA 120 hematology analyzer. Concentrations of sP-selectin and IL-6 in serum were marked by immunoassay (ELISA). MPC, concentration of sP-selectin and IL-6 were significantly higher in subjects with ulcerative colitis compared to those in the healthy group. There was a decrease of MPV in patients with ulcerative colitis, which is statistically significant. Chronic inflammation in patients with ulcerative colitis causes an increase in the number of blood platelets, a change in their morphology and activation. Decreased MPV value reflects activation and the role blood platelets play in the inflammatory process of the mucous membrane of the colon. A high concentration of sP-selectin, which is a marker of blood platelet activation, demonstrates their part in the inflammatory process. The increase in the concentration of sP-selectin correlated positively with the increase in concentration of IL-6. This is why it may be a useful marker of the activity of colitis ulcerosa. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Tumor, calor, dolor, pallor and functio laesa are together involved in the different acute and chronic inflammatory processes. The processes involved in the inflammation are determined by differently acquired and hereditary factors. Recently the presence of a new genetic marker (Leiden point mutation) was found in Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. On the other hand, the GI mucosal integrity was proven on gastrointestinal mucosal damage to be produced by different chemicals, xenobiotics, drugs. In human observations, the serum level of retinoids (vitamin A, lutein, zeaxanthin, alpha-, beta-carotene) was proven in patients with chronic gastrointestinal inflammatory bowel disease. The aims of this study were (1) to measure the prevalence of Leiden mutation; (2) to identify the changes in the serum retinoid level in patients with Helicobacter pylori infection of the stomach (n=24), hepatitis C infection (n=75), ileitis terminalis (Crohn's disease; n=49), ulcerative colitis (n=35), colon polyposis (n=59) and adenocarcinoma in colon polyps (n=9), and 57 healthy persons were used in the control group; (3) to compare the directions of the changes in the measured parameters in the acute (H. pylori and hepatitis C infections), chronic (ileitis terminalis, ulcerative colitis) GI inflammatory diseases and in colon polyposis without and with malignisation. METHODS: The Leiden mutation was measured by the method of polymerase chain reaction, the retinoid level in the patient's serum was measured by high liquid cromathografic method (HPCL). RESULTS: (1) It has been found that the prevalence of Leiden mutation increased significantly in patients with ileitis terminalis (P<0.001), ulcerative colitis (P<0.001), colon polyposis (P<0.001) and with colon polyps with malignisation (P<0.01). (2) Serum level of vitamin A and zeaxantin were decreased significantly in all group of patients except for the group with H. pylori infections. (3) alpha- and beta-carotenes were found to be practically at the same level as those in the control groups, except in patients of colon polyps with malignisation. (4) The vitamin A, lutein, zeaxantin, alpha- and beta-carotenes were decreased in patients with ileitis terminalis. CONCLUSIONS: (1) The essential role of retinoids (carotenoids) as environmental factors are suggested for keeping GI mucosal integrity in human healthy subjects and patients. (2) Leiden mutation, as a genetic marker, can be used in the screening of patients with ileitis terminalis, ulcerative colitis and colon polyposis (without and with malignisation). (3) An opposite direction can be found between the increased prevalence of Leiden mutation and decrease of serum levels of retinoids in group of patients with ileitis terminalis, ulcerative colitis and colon polyposis (without and with malignisation). 相似文献

Finger clubbing, measured objectively by using the hyponychial angle, was present in 75 out of 200 (38%) patients with Crohn''s disease, 15 out of 103 (15%) with ulcerative colitis, and two out of 24 (8%) with proctitis. In Crohn''s disease and ulcerative colitis the hyponychial angle was significantly correlated with both disease activity and the extent of fibrosis in the resected specimens from 47 surgically treated patients. The prevalence of finger clubbing in patients with macroscopic disease within the area of the gut innervated by the vagus nerve was significantly higher than that in patients in whom the disease was confined to the distal colon and rectum. Finger clubbing in patients with Crohn''s disease tended to regress after resection of macroscopic disease. It is concluded that finger clubbing is significantly commoner in Crohn''s disease than ulcerative colitis. The focal stimuli for finger clubbing include mucosal inflammatory change and fibrosis mediated by the vagus and possibly other autonomic pathways acting as the afferent arc of a finger-clubbing reflex. 相似文献

In the present study, probiotic Dahi (LaBb Dahi) containing Lactobacillus acidophilus LaVK2 and Bifidobacterium bifidum BbVK3 was selected as a probiotic therapy to investigate its protective effect on dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced ulcerative colitis model in mice that mimics the picture in human. LaBb Dahi was prepared by co-culturing Dahi bacteria (Lactococcus lactis ssp. cremoris NCDC-86 and Lactococcus lactis ssp. lactis biovar diacetylactis NCDC-60) along with selected strain of L. acidophilus LaVK2 and B. bifidum BbVK3 in buffalo milk (3% fat). Four groups of swiss albino male mice (12 each) were fed buffalo milk (3% fat), buffalo milk (3% fat) plus DSS, Dahi plus DSS, and LaBb Dahi plus DSS, respectively, for 17?days with basal diet. The myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity, levels of tumor necrosis factor-?? (TNF-??), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and interferon (IFN-??) were assessed as inflammatory markers, and the histopathological picture of the colon of mice was studied. DSS-induced colitis appeared to induce significant increase in MPO activity, levels of TNF-??, IL-6 and IFN-??. Feeding with LaBb Dahi offered significant reduction in MPO activity, levels of TNF-??, IL-6 and IFN-?? when compared to either buffalo milk group or group III (Dahi). The present study suggests that LaBb probiotic Dahi can be used to combat DSS-induced biochemical and histological changes and to achieve more effective treatment for ulcerative colitis. 相似文献

Recent studies have shown that mucosal serotonin (5-HT) transporter (SERT) expression is decreased in animal models of colitis, as well as in the colonic mucosa of humans with ulcerative colitis and irritable bowel syndrome. Altered SERT function or expression may underlie the altered motility, secretion, and sensation seen in these inflammatory gut disorders. In an effort to elucidate possible mediators of SERT downregulation, we treated cultured colonic epithelial cells (Caco2) with conditioned medium from activated human lymphocytes. Application of the conditioned medium caused a decrease in fluoxetine-sensitive [(3)H]5-HT uptake. Individual proinflammatory agents were then tested for their ability to affect uptake. Cells were treated for 48 or 72 h with PGE(2) (10 microM), IFN-gamma (500 ng/ml), TNF-alpha (50 ng/ml), IL-12 (50 ng/ml), or the nitric oxide-releasing agent S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO; 100 microM). [(3)H]5-HT uptake was then measured. Neither PGE nor IL-12 had any effect on [(3)H]5-HT uptake, and GSNO increased uptake. However, after 3-day incubation, both TNF-alpha and IFN-gamma elicited significant decreases in SERT function. Neither TNF-alpha nor IFN-gamma were cytotoxic when used for this period of time and at these concentrations. These two cytokines also induced decreases in SERT mRNA and protein levels. By altering SERT expression, TNF-alpha and IFN-gamma could contribute to the altered motility and expression seen in vivo in ulcerative colitis or irritable bowel syndrome. 相似文献

South Asians with ulcerative colitis exhibit altered lectin binding compared with matched European cases 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
R. F. T. Mcmahon B. F. Warren C. J. P. Jones J. F. Mayberry C. S. J. Probert A. P. Corfield R. W. Stoddart 《Journal of molecular histology》1997,29(6):469-477
Ulcerative colitis is associated with abnormalities of mucin synthesis and secretion, features that may also be associated
with malignant change. It has been shown that South Asians in Britain have a high incidence of ulcerative colitis but a low
incidence of colorectal carcinoma compared with their European counterparts. Previous studies have demonstrated changes in
colonic mucin sialylation and sulphation in both South Asian and European cases with ulcerative colitis. This was related
to disease severity, but changes were also found in quiescent disease. The aim of the present study was to determine glycoconjugate
expression in the colon from South Asian cases and to compare results with those from a group of affected Europeans. Glycans
were identified in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue from 17 South Asian patients with ulcerative colitis and from
11 European patients with a similar degree of colitis, by the application of 10 biotinylated lectins. These were directed
against a range of sialyl, fucosyl and 2-deoxy, 2-acetamido-galactosyl sequences, using an avidin--peroxidase revealing system
and semiquantitative assessment. The South Asian group showed a reduction in the binding of agglutinins from Sambucus nigra
in the apical-membranous region of enterocytes, and a decrease in apical Maackia amurensis agglutinin binding. These results
suggest that South Asians with ulcerative colitis show a different distribution of terminal N-acetyl neuraminyl residues,
either in their α-2,6 or α-2,3 linkage, compared with their European counterparts. The changes in sialylation observed in
European cases compared with normal disease-free control subjects were present in quiescent disease, but were also related
to disease activity. Their absence in Asians with ulcerative colitis may imply an inherent, genetically determined variation
in this group, which may also play a part in their reduced risk of subsequent malignancy 相似文献

Intestinal fatty acid binding protein (I-FABP) as a possible biomarker of ileitis in patients with ulcerative colitis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Wiercinska-Drapalo A Jaroszewicz J Siwak E Pogorzelska J Prokopowicz D 《Regulatory peptides》2008,147(1-3):25-28
BACKGROUND: One of nine types of FABP, intestinal fatty acid binding protein (I-FABP) is primarily limited to the mature enterocytes of the small intestine, with only trace amounts identified in the stomach and large intestine. The aim of this study was to investigate the use of I-FABP as a possible plasma marker of intestinal injury in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC). MATERIAL AND METHODS: The study group consisted of 42 patients (11 females and 31 males) with active ulcerative colitis (UC), aged from 24 to 74 years (mean age: 41.8+/-3.5 years). Plasma I-FABP concentrations and hsCRP were compared using endoscopic pictures scored according to the system developed by Meyers et al., and analysed in the context of inflammatory process extension: pancolitis, or distal or left side colitis. RESULTS: The mean serum I-FABP concentration /mL), whereas individuals with left-side colitis had a mean I-FABP concentration of 61.8+/-8.5 pg/mL. Significant serum I-FABP elevation was observed in UC patients with a severe form of the disease, in contrast to the serum I-FABP concentration in patients with the mild form (260.5+/-60.6 vs. 61.5+/-7.9 pg/mL). CONCLUSION: The elevated serum I-FABP concentration in patients with UC may indicate ileitis. I-FABP may be a useful marker of the extended inflammatory process. 相似文献
