Gastric cancer is the second cause of cancer-related mortality and the fourth most common cancers worldwide. Owing to the immune modulatory effect of vitamin D in the body, the role of vitamin D receptor gene in vitamin D regulation receives a great deal of research interest. The aim of the current study was to highlight the association between two variants of TaqI and FokI in the vitamin D receptor gene and gastric cancer predisposition in a sample of South Khorasan population. The present investigation consisted of 69 patients affected with gastric cancer and 100 healthy individuals. The genomic DNA was extracted by salting out the protocol from peripheral venous blood. Genotyping of TaqI and FokI variants were performed by PCR-RFLP method. Our findings manifested that TC genotype of TaqI polymorphism was statistically significant between the case and the control groups (p = 0.002). Moreover, the frequency of TC + CC genotypes was statistically significant between the two groups (p = 0.009). Furthermore, we could not find any meaningful association between FokI variant and the participant groups. The present results declared that, in our population, TC genotype of TaqI polymorphism has an association with gastric cancer susceptibility. In addition, more investigation with greater sample sizes is needed to confirm our results. 相似文献

Electromagnetic fields (EMFs) are reported to interfere with chemical reactions involving free radical production. Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is a strong antioxidant with some neuroprotective activities. The purpose of this study was to examine and compare the neuroprotective effects of EMF and CoQ10 in a mouse model of hippocampal injury. Hippocampal injury was induced in mature female mice (25–30 g), using an intraperitoneal injection of trimethyltin hydroxide (TMT; 2.5 mg/kg). The experimental groups were exposed to EMF at a frequency of 50 Hz and intensity of 5.9 mT for 7 hr daily over 1 week or treated with CoQ10 (10 mg/kg) for 2 weeks following TMT injection. A Morris water maze apparatus was used to assess learning and spatial memory. Nissl staining and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) tests were also performed for the histopathological analysis of the hippocampus. Antiapoptotic genes were studied, using the Western blot technique. The water maze test showed memory improvement following treatment with CoQ10 and coadministration of CoQ10 + EMF. The Nissl staining and TUNEL tests indicated a decline in necrotic and apoptotic cell count following treatment with CoQ10 and coadministration of CoQ10 + EMF. The Western blot study indicated the upregulation of antiapoptotic genes in treatment with CoQ10, as well as coadministration. Also, treatment with EMF had no significant effects on reducing damage induced by TMT in the hippocampus. According to the results, EMF had no significant neuroprotective effects in comparison with CoQ10 on hippocampal injury in mice. Nevertheless, coadministration of EMF and CoQ10 could improve the neuroprotective effects of CoQ10. 相似文献

Male Pattern Baldness (MPB) or androgenetic alopecia is a common form of hair loss with androgens and genetics having etiological
significance. Androgens are thought to pathophysiologically power on cascades of chronically dramatic alterations in genetically
susceptible scalp dermal papillas, specialized cells in hair follicles in which androgens react, and finally resulting in
a patterned alopecia. However, the exact mechanisms through which androgens, positive regulators of growth and anabolism in
most body sites, paradoxically exert their effects on balding hair follicles, are not yet known. The role of microRNAs, a
recently discovered class of non-coding RNAs, with a wide range of regulatory functions, has been documented in hair follicle
formation and their deregulation in cancer of prostate, a target organ of androgens has also been delineated. Yet, there is a lack of knowledge in agreement with microRNAs’ contribution in pathophysiology of MPB. To investigate the
role of microRNAs in pathogenesis of MPB, we selected seven microRNAs, predicted bioinformatically on a reverse engineering
basis, from previously published microarray gene expression data and analyzed their expression in balding relative to non-balding
dermal papillas. We found for the first time upregulation of four microRNAs (miR-221, miR-125b, miR-106b and miR-410) that
could participate in pathogenesis of MPB. Regarding microRNAs’ therapeutic potential and accessibility of hair follicles for
gene therapy, these microRNAs can be considered as good candidates for a new revolutionized generation of treatments. 相似文献

A novel series of tacrine based cyclopentapyranopyridine- and tetrahydropyranoquinoline-kojic acid derivatives were designed, synthesized, and evaluated as anti-cholinesterase agents. The chemical structures of all target compounds were characterized by 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, and elemental analyses. The synthesized compounds mostly inhibited acetylcholinesterase enzyme (AChE) with IC50 values of 4.18–48.71 μM rather than butyrylcholinesterase enzyme (BChE) with IC50 values of >100 μM. Among them, cyclopentapyranopyridine-kojic acid derivatives showed slightly better AChE inhibitory activity compared to tetrahydropyranoquinoline-kojic acid. The compound 10-amino-2-(hydroxymethyl)-11-(4-isopropylphenyl)-7,8,9,11-tetrahydro-4H-cyclopenta[b]pyrano[2′,3′ : 5,6]pyrano[3,2-e]pyridin-4-one ( 6f ) bearing 4-isopropylphenyl moiety and cyclopentane ring exhibited the highest anti-AChE activity with IC50 value of 4.18 μM. The kinetic study indicated that the compound 6f acts as a mixed inhibitor and the molecular docking studies also illustrated that the compound 6f binds to both the catalytic site (CS) and peripheral anionic site (PAS) of AChE. The compound 6f showed moderate neuroprotective properties against H2O2-induced cytotoxicity in PC12 cells. The theoretical ADME study also predicted good drug-likeness for the compound 6f . Based on these results, the compound 6f seems to be a very promising AChE inhibitor for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease. 相似文献

Macrophages are important cells in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis because of their tendency to accumulate lipid and become transformed into foam cells. Cultured human monocyte-derived macrophages spontaneously secrete lipoprotein lipase (LPL), and LPL has been linked to increased lipid uptake by these cells. Because secretion of various macrophage products depends on activation by lymphokines, we studied the effects of immunoregulatory lymphokines on LPL secretion by cultured human macrophages. After culturing cells in RPMI 1640 medium with 20% fetal calf serum, recombinant human gamma-interferon (gamma-INF), interleukin-1 (IL-1), and interleukin-2 (IL-2) were added to the medium and LPL secretion was assessed by measuring LPL activity and/or LPL mass in the medium. Gamma-INF suppressed LPL production both when added to freshly plated cultures of human blood monocytes, as well as when added to monocyte/macrophages from mature cultures (day 6) that were producing large amounts of LPL. IL-1 inhibited medium LPL when added to freshly plated cultures, but not when added to mature cultures. On the other hand, IL-2 did not inhibit LPL in freshly plated cultures, but produced a dose-dependent suppression of LPL from mature cultures. None of the cytokines were cytotoxic to macrophages, and cells that were cultured in gamma-INF demonstrated partial recovery from LPL-suppressive doses of the cytokine. After exposure of cells to 50 U/ml of gamma-INF and 50 U/ml of IL-2 for 3 days, LPL mRNA levels, when expressed as LPL/gamma-actin ratios, were 42% and 53% of controls, respectively. Thus, activation of human macrophages in vitro by gamma-INF resulted in a suppression of LPL production.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

A novel series of benzimidazole‐1,2,3‐triazole hybrids containing substituted benzyl moieties were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their inhibitory activity against mushroom tyrosinase. The results indicated that 2‐(4‐{[1‐(3,4‐dichlorobenzyl)‐1H‐1,2,3‐triazol‐4‐yl]methoxy}phenyl)‐1H‐benzimidazole ( 6g ) and 2‐(4‐{[1‐(4‐bromobenzyl)‐1H‐1,2,3‐triazol‐4‐yl]methoxy}phenyl)‐1H‐benzimidazole ( 6h ) exhibited effective inhibitory activity with IC50 values of 9.42 and 10.34 μm , respectively, comparable to that of kojic acid as the reference drug (IC50 = 9.28 μm ). Kinetic study of compound 6g confirmed mixed‐type inhibitory activity towards tyrosinase indicating that it can bind to free enzyme as well as enzyme‐substrate complex. Also, molecular docking analysis was performed to determine the binding mode of the most potent compounds ( 6g and 6h ) in the active site of tyrosinase. Consequently, 6g and 6h derivatives might serve as promising candidates in cosmetics, medicine or food industry, and development of such compounds may be of an interest. 相似文献
