Adipokines and ghrelin play role in insulin resistance, the key pathophysiological abnormality in patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver diseases. In the present study, relationship between nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and serum adipokine and ghrelin levels was investigated. Thirty seven patients with biopsy-proven NASH and 25 age- and sex-matched controls were enrolled. Ten of NASH patients (27%) had diabetes mellitus (n = 5) or impaired glucose tolerance (n = 5). Body mass index (BMI) was less than 30 kg/m(2) in 67.6% of patients, while in the remaining 32.4% it was more than 30 kg/m(2). Serum adiponectin, leptin, TNF-alpha, and ghrelin were determined. Serum leptin (15.49 +/- 4.84 vs 10.31 +/- 2.53) and TNF-alpha (12.1 +/- 2.7 vs 10.31 +/- 2.56) levels were significantly higher in the NASH group compared to in the control group (P < .001 for each). Nevertheless, adiponectin (11.1 +/- 2.1 vs 17.3 +/- 2.8) and ghrelin (6.46 +/- 1.1 vs 7.8 +/- 1.1) levels were lower in the NASH group than in the control group (P < .001 for each). Serum levels of the adipokines and ghrelin, however, were comparable in the subgroups of patients regardless of whether BMI was < 30 or > 30 or glucose tolerance was impaired or not (P > .05). Additionally, neither adipokines nor ghrelin was correlated with histopathological grade and stage (P > .05). In conclusion; there is a significant relationship between NASH and adipokines and ghrelin independent from BMI and status of the glucose metabolism. These cytokines that appear to have role in the pathogenesis of NASH, however, do not have any effect upon the severity of the histopathology. 相似文献

Head and neck cancer is the sixth most common cancer in the world and one of the most lethal cancers. Microsatellite instability
is an important characteristic of tumor cells and is observed both in presence and absence of mismatch repair gene mutations.
The importance of microsatellite instability in head and neck cancer is not well established due to the lack of a consensus
panel and selection of different markers, criteria and methodological variances. The main objective of this study was to investigate
the performance of a consensus panel of microsatellite repeats by automated fragment analysis. Matched tumor and normal tissue
samples from 99 patients were analyzed using five mononucleotide markers. Following PCR the amplified fragments were analyzed
by capillary electrophoresis on an ABI 310 genetic analyzer. Microsatellite instability was observed in 26 patients. In 17
patients instability was detected at multiple loci. NR21 and BAT25 were the most frequently altered targets. These two mononucleotide
markers could detect all samples displaying high-instability. In this study we describe a standardized fluorescent multiplex
PCR combined with computerized analysis, which allows rapid and accurate analysis of a high number of samples and obviates
the need to compare tumors with matching normal tissue. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Over the past 10 years stents have been used more frequently for the treatment of de novo coronary artery stenosis. Initally these devices were used primarily in coronary arteries with diameters ranging from 3.0 to 4.0 mm. Traditionally, coronary arteries less than 3.0 mm in diameter were treated with only balloon angioplasty, due to the unavailablity of flexible, low profile, small diameter stents. In the past three years, many stents have been designed to be implanted in small coronary arteries. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to evaluate the safety and feasiblity of the R Stent in patients with coronary lesions located in coronary arteries with a reference diameter 2.5-3.0 mm. METHODS AND RESULTS: Between November 1998 and September 1999, 32 patients with stable (37%) and unstable (63%) angina treated with the R Stent were included in this study. The treated lesions were in the right coronary artery (RCA) (n = 13), left cirumflex coronary artery (LCX) (n = 10), and left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) (n = 9). Of these lesions thirteen were anatomically complex. Stent deployment was successful in 97% with one crossing failure in a patient with a vessel tortuosity of greater than 75 degrees of the circumflex artery. No post-procedual major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular event (MACCE) occurred within 30 days of stent implantation. After the procedure, patients were scheduled for a two-week telephone follow-up and a one-month clinical evaluation. At 30 days, only one patient (3%) experienced the recurrence of angina Canadian cardiovascular society classification ((CCS) Class 2). All other patients were event and angina free. CONCLUSION: This first clinical experience in patients with small vessel disease shows that the use of the R stent is safe and feasible with low rates of acute stent thrombosis. 相似文献

In addition to genetic changes, the occurrence of epigenetic alterations is associated with accumulation of both genetic and epigenetic events that promote the development and progression of human cancer. Previously, we reported a set of candidate genes that comprise part of the emerging “cancer methylome”. In the present study, we first tested 23 candidate genes for promoter methylation in a small number of primary colon tumor tissues and controls. Based on these results, we then examined the methylation frequency of Oncostatin M receptor-β (OSMR) in a larger number of tissue and stool DNA samples collected from colon cancer patients and controls. We found that OSMR was frequently methylated in primary colon cancer tissues (80%, 80/100), but not in normal tissues (4%, 4/100). Methylation of OSMR was also detected in stool DNA from colorectal cancer patients (38%, 26/69) (cut-off in TaqMan-MSP, 4). Detection of other methylated markers in stool DNA improved sensitivity with little effect on specificity. Promoter methylation mediated silencing of OSMR in cell lines, and CRC cells with low OSMR expression were resistant to growth inhibition by Oncostatin M. Our data provide a biologic rationale for silencing of OSMR in colon cancer progression and highlight a new therapeutic target in this disease. Moreover, detection and quantification of OSMR promoter methylation in fecal DNA is a highly specific diagnostic biomarker for CRC. 相似文献

TNF-alpha and leptin in experimental liver fibrosis models induced by carbon tetrachloride and by common bile duct ligation 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

In this study we investigated TNF-alpha and leptin levels in two different liver fibrosis models induced by carbon tetrachloride (CCl(4)) and common bile duct ligation (CBDL). A total of 36 male rats of Albino-Wistar strain were allocated to three groups. One of the groups was the control. The second group received 0.15 ml 100 g(-1) CCl(4) subcutaneously for 6 weeks, 3 days per week. The third group underwent common bile duct ligation (CBDL) and was monitored for 4 weeks. Histopathological investigation included fibrosis, steatosis and inflammation. Serum IL-6 and TNF-alpha levels were analysed by ELISA methods and leptin was analysed by RIA. Fibrosis and steatosis increased significantly in the CCl(4) group in comparison with the CBDL group (p < 0.01; p < 0.001). Leptin and TNF-alpha levels in CCl(4) group were higher than those in the CBDL and control groups (p < 0.05). TNF-alpha and leptin levels were not related to each another in either the CCl(4) group or the CBDL group (r=0.22, p > 0.05; r=0.19, p > 0.05). The IL-6 level was higher in the CCl(4) group in relation to severity of inflammation (p < 0.05). TNF-alpha and leptin levels were higher in animals with liver fibrosis induced by CCl(4), than they were in those whose liver fibrosis was induced by common bile duct ligation. Leptin and TNF-alpha may be less effective on the development of liver fibrosis in the group which underwent common bile duct ligation. 相似文献
