Journal of Chongqing Medical University 1986;0(02):-
Objective:To investigate the relationship of hyperthyroidism and the level of leptin and the role of thyroid hormone in leptin secretion.Methods:FT3,FT4,TSH,serum leptin and body weight were measured in 30 female Graves' patients and 30 female controls;the percentage of body fat and leptin were calculated,the changes in various index after 6-month treatment with methimazole were observed,the relationship between thyroid hormone and leptin,percentage of leptin analyzed,and multiple regressive analysis was made on these factors.Results:The BMI,percentage of body fat and leptin level were lower than controls,however,percentage of leptin was higher than controls.The leptin level elevated insignificantly but percentage of leptin decreased significantly after 6 months treatment with methimazole.Percentage of leptin showed positive correlation with FT3,FT4 and BMI percentage of body fat.Conclusion:The percentage of leptin is higher in female thyroid hyperfunction patients than controls and thyroid hormone increases the secretion of leptin even on the condition of thyroid hyperfunction.
2.Induction of apoptosis in thyroid cells by iodide excess and its mechanism
Journal of Chongqing Medical University 1986;0(04):-
Objective:To explore the role of excessive iodide in inducing apoptosis in thyroid cells and its mechanism.Methods:Normal primary thyroid cells were cultured in NaI of different concentrations with or without IL-1? and methimazole.The morphological changes in thyroid cells were observed by light microscopy and apotosis rate was determined by flow cytometry techique.In the meantime Fas,FasL,p53 level were determined by histochemistry.Results:Thyroid cells treated with iodide excess underwent the morphological changes and apoptosis. There was a gradually increased apotosis rate and Fas/FasL protein expression accompanying increase in iodide concentrations.No changes in p53 protein expression was shown. IL-1? enhanced the effect of iodide cytotoxicity,whereas methimazole inhibited the role of iodide inducing apotosis.Conclusion:These data indicate that excess molecular iodide induces apoptosis in thyroid cell through Fas/FasL channel, but independent of p53.

Objective To observe the expression of thioredoxin (Trx) and thioredoxin-interacting protein (Txnip) in the kidney of type 2 diabetic rats induced by streptozotocin and the effect of probucol treatment on thioredoxin system. Methods Thirty male SD rats were divided into control group( C, n = 10), diabetes group ( D, n =10), and probucol treated diabetic group ( P, n = 10). After eight weeks of probucol treatment, the expressions of Trx and Txnip in the kidney of three groups were measured by RT-PCR, Western blot, and immunohistochemistry. Body weight,24 h microalbuminuria( ALB), fasting plasma glucose( FPG), fasting insulin( HNS), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), creatinine (Cr), malondialdehyde ( MDA ), superoxide dismutase ( SOD ), and catalase (CAT) were determined. Results Compared with group C, Trx was markedly decreased in group P (0. 162 ±0. 008 vs 0. 239 ±0. 006, P<0.05 ), while Txnip was significantly increased (0. 159±0.003 vs 0. 091 ±0.016, P<0.05 ). Trx in group P was increased as compared with group D (0. 162 ±0. 008 vs 0. 108 ± 0. 013, P < 0. 05 ), while Txnip was lowered (0. 159±0.003 vs 0. 236±0.009 ,P<0.05 ). FPG, 24 h ALB, BUN, Cr,and MDA levels in group D were markedly increased as compared with group C (P<0. 05), while the activity of SOD, CAT, and FINS levels were decreased apparently (P<0.05). The above markers except for FPG in group P were ameliorated (P<0. 05 ).Conclusions Probucol attenuated oxidative stress by means of partially restoring Trx function and reducing Txnip expression, and thus played a major role in renoprotection of type 2 diabetic nephropathy.

Objective To investigate the effect of placing subcutaneous drain tube and preseting triclosan-coated polyglactin 910 suture with delayed suturing to incision infection after typeⅢabdominal surgery. Methords Dividing 504 patients with typeⅢincisions undergone abdominal surgery into 3 groups. The number of group A patients with thoroughly incision washing and primary triclosan-coated polyglactin 910 suture after abdominal surgery was 143. The number of group B with closed anterior rectus sheath, opened skin and subcutaneous fat with preseted triclosan-coated polyglactin 910 suture was 190. The number of group C with subcutaneous drain tube after abdominal surgery was 171. We compared the incidence rates of incision infection and the second phase debridement suture rates among the 3 groups. Results For the group A, B, C, the number of incision infection people was 11, 4, 3 and the incision infection rate was 7.69%, 2.11%and 1.75%respectively. The difference of the 3 groups incision infection rate were statistically significant (P<0.05). The incision infection rate of the group B and group C were lower than that of group A and the difference were statistically significant (P<0.016 7). There were no significant differences in second phase debridement suture rates among the 3 groups. Conclusion Preseting triclosan-coated polyglactin 910 suture with delayed incision sutue and placing subcutaneous drain tube can decrease the incision infection rates for type Ⅲpatients after abdominal surgery, but can not decrease the second phase debridement suture rates of the infectious incision.

Electrochemiluminescence was used to determine thyroid function and thyroid autoantibodies in 140 pregnant women,who were then divided into normal group (n =117) and subclinical hypothyroidism group (n =23) based on the thyroid function.The urine iodine level in the pregnant women was detected by arsenic cerium catalytic spectrophotometric method.The awareness of past history of thyroid disease among the subjects with thyroid dysfunctions were investigated.The results showed that the prevalences of iodine deficiency were 50% and 57% in the normal group and the subclinical hypothyroidism group,respectively.The state of iodine level was not related to thyroid function.The levels of serum thyroid peroxidase antibody (TPOAb) and thyroglobulin antibody were markedly related to serum TSH(P<0.01),so was the level of serum TPOAb related to serum FT4 (P<0.05).Among the subclinical hypothyroidism women,70% did not undergo thyroid function and thyroid autoantibodies screening before pregnancy,8.7% denied past history of thyroid disease,and 21.7% suffered from hypothyroidism before pregnancy.Therefore,we advocate the screening of urine iodine and thyroid autoantibodies before or during the first trimester of pregnancy,aiming to correct iodine deficiency,avoid supplementing too much iodine,improve the outcome of perinatal stage,and reduce all the negative effects on the offsprings.

Objective To evaluate the association between R353Q polymorphism of the coagulation factor Ⅶ gene and cerebral infarction in Chinese Han people. Methods Restriction fragment length polymorphism(PCR-RFLP) methods was adopted to detect FⅦR353Q genotype and R、Q allelomorphie gone frequency of 100 cerebral infarction(CI) patients and 106 healthy people. Results There was FⅦR353Q polymorphism in the CI patients and healthy subjects. RR and RQ genotype could be found in the control group and CI group. RR and RQ genotype dis-position consistented with Hardy-weinberg equilibrium. In CI group,RR genotype was in 91 cases,RQ was in 9 cases and QQ in 0 case(the distribution frequencies were 91.00% ,9.00% and 0), and in the healthy subjects, those are 94 cases, 12 cases and 0 case(88.70% ,11.30% and 0). In the control group and CI group,R allele genotype fre-quencies were 94.33% and 95.50%, and Q were 5.67% and 4.50%. There was not significantly different in the R353Q polymorphism (χ20.3027, P=0.5822);Q allele genotype was not significantly different between the cases of control group and CI patients(χ20.2865, P=0.5925). Conclusion There are the FⅦR353Q polymorphism in Han population,however,the idea that the Q allele is a protective factor in CI is not supported.
