Description:
Microparticles are small fragments of the plasma membrane released by activated and/or apoptotic cells. In theory, all type of cells can shed microparticles representing a physiological process in the cell life. Mainly, microparticles generation has been studied in different cardiovascular pathologies due to the facility to obtain blood samples from individuals. Although microparticles have been considered as simply markers of several diseases, in the last decade, several studies support the hypothesis that they participate in the regulation of the cardiovascular system function by carrying biological messages between cells. Among the effects of microparticles, recent data show that they can be implicated in the modulation of neovascularization, an essential function of cells from cardiovascular system during either ischemic diseases or cancer development. Whereas during pathologies associated with ischemia an increase of neovascularization may have beneficial effects, anti-angiogenic strategies represent new approaches for manipulation of tumor development. Here, we give an overview of the mechanisms and factors involved in neovascularization, and finally, we look at the role and the consequences of the modulation of this process by microparticles in pathological situations., H.

Description:
Hepcidin is a key regulator of iron metabolism and a mediator of anemia in inflammation. Recent in vitro studies recognized prohepcidin as a type II acute phase protein regulating via interleukin-6. The aim of the present study was to investigate the time course of plasma prohepcidin after a large cardiac surgery in relation to IL-6 and other inflam matory parameters. Patients with chronic thromboembolic hypertension (n=22, males/females 14/8, age 51.9±10.2 years) underwent pulmonary endarterectomy using cardiopulmonary bypass and deep hypothermic circulatory arrest were included into study. Arterial concentrations of prohepcidin, IL-1β , IL-6, IL-8, tumor necrosis factor-α , and C-reactive protein were measured before/after sternotomy, after circulatory arrest, after separation from bypass, and then 12, 18, 24, 36, 48 h and 72 h after the separation from bypass. Hemodynamic parameters, hematocrit and markers of iron metabolism were followed up. Pulmonary endarterectomy induced a 48 % fall in plasma prohepcidin; minimal concentrations were detected after separation from cardiopulmonary bypass. Prohepcidin decline correlated with an extracorporeal circulation time (p<0.01), while elevated IL-6 levels were inversely associated with duration of prohepcidin decline. Postoperative prohepcidin did not correlate with markers of iron metabolism or hemoglobin concentrations within a 72-h period after separation from CPB. Prohepcidin showed itself as a negative acute phase reactant during systemic inflammatory response syndrome associated with a cardiac surgery. Results indicate that the evolution of prohepcidin in postoperative period implies the antagonism of stimulatory effect of IL-6 and contraregulatory factors inhibiting prohepcidin synthesis or increasing prohepcidin clearance., P.

Language:

Description:
Tissue factor is a cell surface protein that is expressed constitutively by monocytes, macrophages and fibroblasts, but also by some other cells in response to a variety of stimuli. The main function of the tissue factor is to form a complex with factor VII/VIIa that converts factors IX and X to their active forms. Tissue factor is also involved in the pathophysiology of systemic inflammatory disorders, coagulopathies, atherosclerotic disease, tumor angiogenesis and metastasis. Increased tissue factor expression either locally in the coronary plaques or systematically on circulating blood elements of patients with acute coronary syndromes may be responsible for increased thrombin generation, thus leading to platelet activation and fibrin formation. Tissue factor therefore plays a pivotal role in the initiation of thrombotic complications in patients with coronary artery disease., J. Vojáček, J. Dušek, J. Bis, J. Šťásek, M.

Language:

Description:
It is known that chromosomes occupy non-random positions in the cell nucleus. However, it is not clear to what extent their nuclear positions, together with their neighborhood, are conserved in daughter cells. To address specific aspects of this problem, we used the model of the chromosomes carrying ribosomal genes that are organized in clusters termed Nucleolus Organizer Regions (NORs). We compared the association of chosen NOR-bearing chromosomes (NOR-chromosomes) with nucleoli, as well as the numbers of nucleoli, in the pairs of daughter cells, and established how frequently the daughter cells had equal numbers of the homologs of certain NOR-chromosomes associated with individual nucleoli. The daughter cells typically had different numbers of nucleoli. At the same time, using immuno-FISH with probes for chromosomes 14 and 15 in HeLa cells, we found that the cell pairs with identical combinations appeared significantly more frequently than predicted by the random model. Thus, although the total number of chromosomes associated with nucleoli is variable, our data indicate that the position of the NOR-bearing chromosomes in relation to nucleoli is partly conserved through mitosis., M.

Description:
Idiopathic pes equinovarus (clubfoot) is a congenital deformity of the foot and lower leg defined as a fixation of the foot in plantar flexion, adduction, supination and varus. The deformity does not affect only the foot position, which is usually investigated by radiography, CT, micro-CT, MRI or ultrasound but logically influence the whole gait biomechanics. It is supposed, that clubfoot belongs to a group of fibroproliferative disorders whose origin and multi- hierarchical effect remain unknown. It has been suggested that fibroblasts and growth factors may be involved. To gain a more global view, direct analysis of the protein composition of extra cellular matrix, a proteomic approach was used. At present two principle methods are mostly used for the treatment of clubfoot: physiotherapy and the Ponseti method. The determination of the general biological and biomechanical parameters for various regio ns of the clubfoot can potentially help in the understanding of the mechanisms participating on this serious anomaly and thus contribute to the development of the more efficient therapeutic approach. This review summarizes the present knowledge on the poss ible pathogenetic mechanisms participating in the development of the clubfoot and their possible relation to the new therapeutic approaches., M.

Language:
English
Description:
In the central nervous system (CNS), monocarboxylate transporter 1 (MCT1) is expressed in astrocytes and endothelial cells but also in oligodendroglia. Oligodendroglia support neurons and axons through lactate transportation by MCT1. Limited information is available on the MCT1 expression changes in candidate cells in the developing rat brain, especially in corpus callosum which is the most vulnerable area in demyelinating diseases. In the present study, we investigated the expression pattern of MCT1 during postnatal development in the rat corpus callosum using immunofluorescene staining, Western blotting analysis and RT-PCR. We reported that MCT1 gene and protein were consistently expressed in the rat corpus callosum from birth to adult. MCT1/CNPase and MCT1/GFAP immunofluorescence staining demonstrated that most of MCT1 positive cells were co-labeled with cyclic nucleotide 3′ phosphodiesterase (CNPase) in rat corpus callosum from P7 to adult, whereas MCT1+/GFAP+ cells preserve the dominate position before P7. Moreover, there were significant associations between the expression of MCT1 protein and the expression of myelin basic protein (MBP) (correlation coefficient: r=0.962, P=0.009) from P7 to adult. Similarly, the MCT1 mRNA expression was also significantly associated with MBP mRNA expression (r=0.976, P=0.005). Our results are proposing that in the developing brain white matter, MCT1 is predominately expressed in oligodendrocyte though it mainly expressed in astrocyte in early postnatal, which indicate that MCT1 may involve in the oligodendrocyte development and myelination., F.

Description:
The objective of this prospective double-blind study was to determine whether postoperative residual paralysis (PORP) after pancuronium or vecuronium results in hypoxemia and hypercapnia in the immediate admission period to the recovery ward. Eighty-three consecutive surgical patients received balanced or intravenous anesthesia with pancuronium for operations lasting longer than one hour or vecuronium for those lasting less than 60 min, both combined with neostigmine at the end of anesthesia. Standard clinical criteria assessed neuromuscular function intraoperatively. Postoperatively, we determined neuromuscular function (acceleromyography with supramaximal train-of-four (TOF) stimulation of the ulnar nerve, and a 5-s head lift) and pulmonary function (pulse oximetry: SpO2, and blood gas analysis: SaO2, PaCO2). We defined PORP as a TOF-ratio 70 %, hypoxemia as a postoperative SpO2³ 5 % below the pre-anesthestic level together with a postoperative SaO293 %, and hypercapnia as a PaCO2³ 46 mm Hg. Among the 49 pancuronium and 27 vecuronium patients studied, the PORP rates were 20 % in the pancuronium group and 7 % in the vecuronium group (p>0.05). Hypoxemia and hypercapnia occurred more often in pancuronium patients with PORP than in those without PORP namely 60 % vs. 10% (p<0.05) and 30 % vs. 8 % (p>0.05), respectively. We conclude that PORP after pancuronium is a significant risk factor for hypoxemia., U. Bissinger, F. Schimek, G. Lenz., and Obsahuje bibliografii
