| 1 | Antioxidant properties of glutamine and its role in VEGF-Akt pathways in portal hypertension gastropathy显示文摘AIM: To investigate the effects of glutamine on oxidative/nitrosative stress and the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-Akt-endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) signaling pathway in an experimental model of portal hypertension induced by partial portal vein ligation (PPVL). METHODS: Portal hypertension was induced by PPVL. The PPVL model consists of a partial obstruction of the portal vein, performed using a 20 G blunt needle as a guide, which is gently removed after the procedure. PPVL model was performed for 14 d beginning treatment with glutamine on the seventh day. On the fifteenth day, the mesenteric vein pressure was checked and the stomach was removed to test immunoreactivity and oxidative stress markers. We evaluated the expression and the immunoreactivity of proteins involved in the VEGF-Akt-eNOS pathway by Western blotting and immunohistochemical analysis. Oxidative stress was measured by quantification of the cytosolic concentration of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) as well as the levels of total glutathione (GSH), superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity, nitric oxide (NO) production and nitrotyrosine immunoreactivity. RESULTS: All data are presented as the mean ± SE. The production of TBARS and NO was significantly increased in PPVL animals. A reduction of SOD activity was detected in PPVL + G group. In the immunohistochemical analyses of nitrotyrosine, Akt and eNOS, the PPVL group exhibited significant increases, whereas decreases were observed in the PPVL + G group, but no difference in VEGF was detected between these groups. Western blotting analysis detected increased expression of phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K), P-Akt and eNOS in the PPVL group compared with the PPVL + G group, which was not observed for the expression of VEGF when comparing these groups. Glutamine administration markedly alleviated oxidative/nitrosative stress, normalized SOD activity, increased levels of total GSH and blocked NO overproduction as well as the formation of peroxynitrite. CONCLUSION: Glutamine treatment demonstrated to reduce oxidative damage but does not reduce angiogenesis induced by PH in gastric tissue, demonstrating a beneficial role for the PI3K-Akt-eNOS pathway. | Camila Marques Francielli Licks Ingrid Zattoni Beatriz Borges Luiz Eduardo Rizzo de Souza Claudio Augusto Marroni Norma Possa Marroni | 2013 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2013,19,28: | 9 |
| 2 | Protective action of glutamine in rats with severe acute liver failure显示文摘BACKGROUND Severe acute liver failure(SALF) is a rare, but high-mortality, rapidly evolving syndrome that leads to hepatocyte degeneration with impaired liver function.Thioacetamide(TAA) is a known xenobiotic, which promotes the increase of the formation of reactive oxygen species. Erythroid 2-related factor 2(Nrf2) activates the antioxidant protection of cells. Studies have evidenced the involvement of inflammatory mediators in conditions of oxidative stress.AIM To evaluate the antioxidant effects of glutamine on Nrf2 activation and NFκBmediated inflammation in rats with TAA-induced IHAG.METHODS Male Wistar rats(n = 28) were divided into four groups: control,control+glutamine, TAA, and TAA + glutamine. Two TAA doses(400 mg/kg)were administered intraperitoneally, 8 h apart. Glutamine(25 mg/kg) was administered at 30 min, 24 h, and 36 h. At 48 h, blood was collected for liver integrity analysis [aspartate aminotransferase(AST), alanine aminotransferase(ALT), and alkaline phosphatase(ALP)]. The liver was harvested for histology and assessment of oxidative stress [thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances(TBARS), catalase(CAT), glutathione peroxidase(GPx), glutathione S-transferase(GST), glutathione(GSH), Nrf2, Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1(Keap1),NADPH quinone oxidoreductase1(NQO1), superoxide dismutase(SOD)] and inflammatory process.RESULTS TAA caused disruption of the hepatic parenchyma, with inflammatoryinfiltration, massive necrosis, and ballooning degeneration. Glutamine mitigated this tissue damage, with visible regeneration of hepatic parenchyma; decreased TBARS(P < 0.001), GSH(P < 0.01), IL-1β, IL6, and TNFα levels(P <0.01) in hepatic tissue; and decreased blood levels of AST, ALT, and ALP(P <0.05). In addition, CAT, GPx, and GST activities were restored in the glutamine group(P<0.01, P <0.01, and P <0.001, respectively vs TAA alone). Glutamine increased expression of Nrf2(P < 0.05), NQO1, and SOD(P < 0.01), as well as levels of IL-10(P <0.001), while decreasing expression of Keap1, TLR4, NFκB(P < 0.001), COX-2 and iNOS,(P < 0.01), and reducing NO_2 and NO_3 levels(P < 0.05).CONCLUSION In the TAA experimental model of IHAG, glutamine activated the Nrf2 pathway,thus promoting antioxidant protection, and blunted the NFκB-mediated pathway, reducing inflammation. | Elizangela G Schemitt Renata M Hartmann Josieli R Colares Francielli Licks Jéferson O Salvi Cláudio A Marroni Norma P Marroni | 2019 | World Journal of Hepatology2019,11,3: | 5 |
| 3 | Antioxidant and anti-inflammatory action of melatonin in an experimental model of secondary biliary cirrhosis induced by bile duct ligation显示文摘AIM To evaluate the effects of melatonin(Mel) on oxidative stress in an experimental model of bile duct ligation(BDL).METHODS Male Wistar rats(n = 32, weight ± 300 g) were allocated across four groups: CO(sham BDL), BDL(BDL surgery), CO + Mel(sham BDL and Mel administration) and BDL + Mel(BDL surgery and Mel administration). Mel was administered intraperitoneally for 2 wk, starting on postoperative day 15, at a dose of 20 mg/kg.RESULTS Mel was effective at the different standards, reestablishing normal liver enzyme levels, reducing the hepatosomatic and splenosomatic indices, restoring lipoperoxidation and antioxidant enzyme concentrations, reducing fibrosis and inflammation, and thereby reducing liver tissue injury in the treated animals.CONCLUSION The results of this study suggest a protective effect of Mel when administered to rats with secondary biliary cirrhosis induced by BDL. | Josieli Raskopf Colares Elizângela Goncalves Schemitt Renata Minuzzo Hartmann Francielli Licks Mariana do Couto Soares Adriane Dal Bosco Norma Possa Marroni | 2016 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2016,22,40: | 3 |
| 4 | Glutamine prevents oxidative stress in a model of portal hypertension显示文摘AIM To evaluate the protective effects of glutamine in a model of portal hypertension(PH) induced by partial portal vein ligation(PPVL).METHODS Male Wistar rats were housed in a controlled environment and were allowed access to food and water ad libitum. Twenty-four male Wistar rats were divided into four experimental groups:(1) control group(SO)-rats underwent exploratory laparotomy;(2) control + glutamine group(SO + G)-rats were subjected to laparotomy and were treated intraperitoneally with glutamine;(3) portal hypertension group(PPVL)-rats were subjected to PPVL; and(4) PPVL + glutamine group(PPVL + G)-rats were treated intraperitoneally with glutamine for seven days. Local injuries were determined by evaluating intestinal segments for oxidative stress using lipid peroxidation and the activities of glutathione peroxidase(GPx), endothelial nitric oxide synthase(e NOS) and inducible nitric oxide synthase(i NOS) after PPVL.RESULTS Lipid peroxidation of the membrane was increased in the animals subjected to PH(P < 0.01). However, the group that received glutamine for seven days after the PPVL procedure showed levels of lipid peroxidation similar to those of the control groups(P > 0.05). The activity of the antioxidant enzyme GTx was decreased in the gut of animals subjected to PH compared with that in the control group of animals not subjected to PH(P < 0.01). However, the group that received glutamine for seven days after the PPVL showed similar GTx activity to both the control groups not subjected to PH(P > 0.05). At least 10 random, non-overlapping images of each histological slide with 200 × magnification(44 pixel = 1 μm) were captured. The sum means of all áreas, of each group were calculated. The mean areas of e NOS staining for both of the control groups were similar. The PPVL group showed the largest area of staining for e NOS. The PPVL + G group had the second highest amount of staining, but the mean value was much lower than that of the PPVL group(P < 0.01). For i NOS, the control(SO) and control + G(SO + G) groups showed similar areas of staining. The PPVL group contained the largest area of i NOS staining, followed by the PPVL + G group; however, this area was significantly smaller than that of the group that underwent PH without glutamine(P < 0.01).CONCLUSION Treatment with glutamine prevents gut mucosal injury after PH in rats. | Gilmara Pandolfo Zabot Gustavo Franco Carvalhal Norma Possa Marroni Francielli Licks Renata Minuzzo Hartmann Vinícius Duval da Silva Henrique Sarubbi Fillmann | 2017 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2017,23,25: | 3 |
| 5 | N-acetylcysteine modulates angiogenesis and vasodilation in stomach such as DNA damage in blood of portal hypertensive rats显示文摘AIM: To evaluate the antioxidant effect of N-acetylcysteine(NAC) on the stomach of rats with portal hypertension.METHODS: Twenty-four male Wistar rats weighing ± 250 g were divided into four experimental groups(n =6 each): Sham-operated(SO),SO + NAC,partial portal vein ligation(PPVL),and PPVL + NAC. Treatment with NAC in a dose of 10 mg/kg(i.p.) diluted in 0.6 m L of saline solution was administered daily for 7 d starting 8 d after the surgery. Animals from the PPVL and SO group received saline solution(0.6 m L) for the same period of time as the PPVL + NAC and SO + NAC group. On the 15 th day the animals were anesthetized and we evaluated portal pressure by cannulating mesenteric artery. After,we removed the stomach for further analysis. We performed immunohistochemical analysis for endothelial nitric oxide synthase(e NOS),vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF),and nitrotirosine(NTT) proteins in stomach. We also evaluated e NOS and VEGF by Western blot analysis and assessed DNA damage in blood samples by the comet assay.RESULTS: The portal hypertension group exhibited increases in portal pressure when compared to SO group(29.8 ± 1.8 vs 12.0 ± 0.3 mm Hg)(P < 0.001). The same was observed when we compared the e NOS(56.8 ± 3.7 vs 13.46 ± 2.8 pixels)(P < 0.001),VEGF(34.9 ± 4.7 vs 17.46 ± 2.6 pixels)(P < 0.05),and NTT(39.01 ± 4.0 vs 12.77 ± 2.3 pixels)(P < 0.05) expression by immunohistochemistry of the PPVL animals with the SO group. The expression of e NOS(0.39 ± 0.03 vs 0.25 ± 0.03 a.μ)(P < 0.01) and VEGF(0.38 ± 0.04 vs 0.26 ± 0.04 a.μ)(P < 0.01) were also evaluated by Western blot analysis,and we observed an increase of both proteins on PPVL animals. We also evaluated the DNA damage by comet assay,and observed an increase on damage index and damage frequency on those animals. NAC decreased portal pressure values in PPVL + NAC animals(16.46 ± 2 vs 29.8 ± 1.8 mm Hg)(P < 0.001) when compared to PPVL. The expression of e NOS(14.60 ± 4.1 vs 56.8 ± 3.7 pixels)(P < 0.001),VEGF(19.53 ± 3.2 vs 34.9 ± 4.7 pixels)(P < 0.05) and NTT(21.84 ± 0.7 vs 39.01 ± 4.0 pixels)(P < 0.05) evaluated by immunohistochemistry were also reduced in PPVL + NAC animals. Also,when evaluated by Western blot e NOS expression(0.32 ± 0.03 vs 0.39 ± 0.03 a.μ)(P < 0.05) and VEGF expression(0.31 ± 0.09 vs 0.38 ± 0.04 a.μ)(P < 0.01). Furthermore,NAC modulated DNA damage in PPVL + NAC animals.CONCLUSION: In view of these results,we believe NAC is able to protect the stomach from the alterations induced by the PPVL procedure. | Francielli Licks Renata Minuzzo Hartmann Camila Marques Elizangela Schemitt Josieli Raskopf Colares Mariana do Couto Soares Juliana Reys Camila Fisher Juliana da Silva Norma Possa Marroni | 2015 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2015,21,43: | 2 |
| 6 | 成人脊柱侧弯手术前后影像学改变:评价脊柱平衡和健康生活状态的相关性显示文摘背景:成人脊柱侧弯患者健康生活状态的相关评价与患者的放射学参数结合,以此来指导外科手术并预测治疗结果,而这些放射学参数是如何影响成人脊柱侧弯治疗结果的目前尚无报道。目的:评价成人脊柱侧弯患者手术前后放射学参数变化与健康生活状况的相关性。方法:回顾性分析2008年7月至2010年7月收治的68例成人脊柱侧弯患者,男18例,女50例;年龄20-88岁,平均58.5岁。所有患者术前和末次随访时均拍摄全脊柱站立前后位和侧位X射线片并采集完整的ODI调查表。测量患者的放射学参数包括重力线、C7铅垂线、Cobb角、腰椎前凸角、冠状面侧方滑脱的距离、骨盆入射角、骶骨倾斜角和骨盆倾斜角。分析放射学参数和ODI值的相关性使用Pearson’s相关分析。结果与结论:随访时间6-14个月。患者ODI值术前50.6±16.8,术后41.1±19.6,差异有显著性意义(P≤0.001)。Cobb角的平均值术前26°,术后10.7°;侧方移位距离平均值术前4.9 mm,术后接近0 mm。矢状面上,术前和术后C7铅垂线与ODI值之间有明显相关性,术后重力线数值和ODI值之间有相关性。冠状面上,术前Cobb角和术后腰椎前凸角与ODI数值之间有相关性。骨盆倾斜角的改变和骶骨倾斜角相等,而骨盆入射角在术后没有变化。提示评价脊柱平衡和患者健康生活状态的相关性,使用重力线并不优于C7铅垂线。患者术后放射学参数的改善并不预示着症状的缓解。骶骨倾斜角角度的丢失和骨盆的后倾在成人脊柱侧弯中更加常见,通过手术并不能明显的改变骶骨倾斜角、骨盆的后倾、腰椎前凸以及脊柱的矢状面平衡。 | 邹海波 Chun-hui Wu Amir A.
