Chinese Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism 1986;0(03):-
Objective To investigate the role of NF-kB in cytokines (IL-1?, TNF-? and IFN-r) -induced impairment of INS-1 cell, a pancreatic islet ?-cell line. Methods Retrovirus expressing IkB??N with mutant IkB?(inhibitor of NF-kB ) was constructed. Immunoblot analysis, fluorescence analysis using a kB-1uc reporter gene and thiazolyl blue viability assay were applied in this study. Results IL-1?-induced IkB? degradation and NF-kB activation were found in INS-1 cells but not in INS-1/IkB??N cells infected with IkB??N retrovirus. The viability of INS-1 cells incubated with the combination of IL-1? and IFN-r or TNF-? and IFN-r was decreased but INS-1/IkB??N cells could resist these cytokines-induced decrease of cell viability. Conclusion IL-1?, TNF-?can decrease the viability of? cells, while IFN-r may have some enhancing role. Inhibition of NF-kB activation can protect ? cells from the cytotoxicity of the cytokines.

Opjective To study the prevalence of diabetic nephropathy of type 2 diabetes and its correlated risk factors. Methods 1 059 cases with type 2 diabetes in our university hospital during the period of 1997-2000 were screened for diabetic nephropathy,and its correlated risk factors were analysed. Results The prevalence of diabetic nephropathy and end stage of renal disease were 9.73% and 5.47%, respectively. Hypertension and dyslipidemia characterized with hypertriglycemia and low leve1 of HDL were the main risk factors of type 2 diabetic nephropathy. There was no significant relationship between single-determining HbAlc level and UAER. Conclusion The prevalence of diabetic nephropathy of this study was slightly lower than that reported by other authors in western countries,and the risk factors were consistent with those papers.

Objective To investigate the effects of host factors and hepatitis B virus (HBV) factors on interferon treatment in patients with chronic hepatitis B(CHB). Methods Polymerase chain reaction sequence specific primers (PCR SSP) technology was used to determine human leukocyte antigen (HLA) DR and DQ alleles in 32 patients with CHB. Serum HBV DNA level was quantified by a PCR assay with a low limit of detection of 1000 copies/ml. HBV genotypes, precore(A 1896 ) and core promoter(T 1762 A 1764 ) mutations was determined by PCR restriction fragment length polymorphism(PCR RFLP) analysis. Results The frequency of HLA DRB1*14 allele was higher in 10 responders to IFN treatment than in 22 non responders(20.0% v.s. 2.3%, relative risk(RR)=10.750, P =0.030); whereas that of HLA DQB1*07 is lower(10.0% v.s. 38.6%, RR=0.176, P =0.022). Pretreatment serum HBV DNA level in 10 responders was lower than that in 22 non responders (6.71?1.06 v.s. 7.59?0.56log 10 copies/ml, P =0.030). Patients with HBV genotype B infection had a higher response rate to IFN than those with HBV genotype C infection(53.8% v.s. 15.8%, P =0.049). Pretreatment serum ALT level, presences of A 1896 mutation and T 1762 A 1764 mutations had no difference between responders and non responders. Logistic multivariate analysis identified low pretreatment HBV DNA level(RR=0.212, P =0.034), presence of A 1896 mutation(RR=0.063, P =0.049) and HLA DQB1*07(RR=13.358, P =0.045) as independent factors associated with IFN antiviral response. Conclusions Low load of pretreatment serum HBV DNA and T 1762 A 1764 mutation in HBV genome or HBV of genotype B are associated with the response rate to IFN treatment in patients with CHB.

This study is to investigate the effect of high altitude hypoxia on the activity and protein expression of CYP2C9 and CYP2C19. Rats from plain (P) and rats with acute middle altitude hypoxia (AMH), chronic middle altitude hypoxia (CMH), acute high altitude hypoxia (AHH) and chronic high altitude hypoxia (CHH) were administered orally phenytoin sodium (PHT) and omeprazole (OMZ) to evaluate the activity of CYP2C9 and CYP2C19, separately. The serum concentrations of PHT and metabolite 4'-hydroxyphenytoin (HPPH) at 12 h after treatment and the serum concentrations of OMZ and metabolite 5-hydroxy omeprazole (5-OHOMZ) at 3 h after treatment were determined by RP-HPLC. The activity of CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 was evaluated by the ratio of HPPH to PHT and the ratio of 5-OHOMZ to OMZ, respectively. The protein expressions of CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 were determined by ELISA method. The activities of CYP2C9 (HPPH/PHT) in P, AMH, CMH, AHH and CHH were 0.67 +/- 0.31, 0.75 +/- 0.29, 0.76 +/- 0.23, 0.79 +/- 0.31 and 0.75 +/- 0.18, respectively, and the activities of CYP2C19 (5-OHOMZ/OMZ) in P, AMH, CMH, AHH and CHH were 0.17 +/- 0.06, 0.20 +/- 0.10, 0.11 +/- 0.05, 0.37 +/- 0.13 and 0.19 +/- 0.05, respectively. The protein expressions of CYP2C9 in P, AMH, CMH, AHH and CHH were 4.20 +/- 1.27, 3.95 +/- 0.81, 3.93 +/- 1.11, 4.32 +/- 1.03 and 4.12 +/- 0.86 ng x g(-1), respectively, and the protein expressions of CYP2C19 in P, AMH, CMH, AHH and CHH were 3.91 +/- 1.82, 3.63 +/- 2.07, 2.55 +/- 0.85, 4.78 +/- 2.37 and 3.51 +/- 1.03 ng x g(-1), respectively. The activities and protein expressions of CYP2C9 in AMH, CMH, AHH and CHH were not significantly different with those of P. The protein expressions of CYP2C19 in AMH, CMH, AHH and CHH were not significantly different with those of P, but the activity of CYP2C19 in AHH was significantly higher than that of P. This study found significant changes in the activity of CYP2C19 under the special environment of acute high altitude hypoxia.

To study the effect of Tibetan medicine Zuotai on the activity, protein and mRNA expression of CYP1A2 and NAT2, three different doses (1.2, 3.8 and 12 mg x kg(-1)) of Zuotai were administrated orally to rats once a day or once daily for twelve days, separately. Rats were administrated orally caffeine (CF) on the second day after Zuotai administration, and the urine concentration of CF metabolite 5-acetylamino-6-formylamino-3-methyl-uracil (AFMU), 1-methyluric acid (1U), 1-methylxanthine (1X), 1, 7-dimethylxanthine (17U) at 5 h after study drug administration was determined by RP-HPLC. The activity of CYP1A2 and NAT2 was evaluated by the ratio of metabolites (AFMU+1X+1U)/17U and the ratio of AFMU/(AFMU+1X+1U), respectively. The protein and mRNA expression of CYP1A2 and NAT2 were determined by ELISA and RT-PCR method, respectively. After single administration of Zuotai 3.8 mg x kg(-1) and repeated administration of Zuotai 3.8 and 12 mg x kg(-1), the activity of CYP1A2 and NAT2 decreased significantly compared with control group and there was no significant difference between other dose group and control group. The protein expression of CYP1A2 was significant lower than that in control group after repeated administration of Zuotai 12 mg x kg(-1), and the mRNA expression of CYP1A2 decreased significantly compared with that of control group after single administration of Zuotai 3.8 mg x kg(-1) and repeated admistration of Zuotai 12 mg x kg(-1), separately. The protein expression of NAT2 decreased significantly compared with that of control group after single and repeated administration of Zuotai 3.8 mg x kg(-1), respectively, and the mRNA expression of CYP1A2 decreased significantly compared with control group after single administration of Zuotai 3.8 mg x kg(-1). This study found that Tibetan medicine Zuotai had significant effect on the activity, protein and mRNA expression of CYP1A2 and NAT2.
