Objective To investigate the regional distribution and morphological features of nesfatin-1/NUCB2 in digestive system of the humans, Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats and the institute of cancer research (ICR) mice, so as to lay the foundation for further study of its functions in the digestive system. Methods The specimens were obtained from SD rats and ICR mice as well as 20 patients with digestive disease, who were admitted to the First hospital affiliated to Nanjing Medical University and receired surgercal treatment. The specimens from patients with malignant tumors were obtained 5 cm apart from cancerous tissues and from patients with benign tumors were obtained near the focus. The resected tissues included pancreas, stomach, duodenum, esophagus, liver, small intestine or colon. The distribution of nesfatin-1/NUCB2 was examined with immunohistochemical (IHC) staining and its protein level in each organ was measured using Western blotting. Results The immuinohistocemical study revealed the similar distribution pattern of nesfatin-1/NUCB2 in the digestive system of the patients, SD rats and ICR mice. Nesfatin-1/NUCB2 was found to localize in the center of the pancreatic islets, the lower 1/3 to 1/2 of the gastric mucosal glands, as well as the submucosa of the duodenum. Western blotting examination showed the expression of NUCB2 in all tissues from patients, SD rats and ICR mice, whereas the protein level of the nesfatin-1/NUCB2 was higher in pancreas (0.84±0.03, 0. 84±0.05 and 0. 84±0.04, respectively), stomach (0.86±0.06,0.81±0.02 and 0. 78±0.02, respectively) or duodenum (0.79±0.09,0. 79±0.04 and 0.78±0.05)than that in esophagus (0.43±0.04,0.44 ± 0.02 and 0.47 ± 0.06, respectively), liver (0.42±0.01,0.44±0.04 and 0.43 ± 0.01, objectively), small intestine (0.32±0.04,0. 32 ± 0. 04 and 0.34 ±0.04, respectively) or colon (0. 29±0.01,0.32±0.03 and 0. 28±0.03, respectively)(all P values=0. 000). Conclusion Nesfatin-1/NUCB2 is widely expressed in the pancreatic islets, gastric mucosal glands and duodenum of the patients, SD rats and ICR mice, which indicates that nesfatin-1/NUCB2 may be involved in the regulation of food intake, carbohydrate metabolism and gastrointestinal motility.

ObjectiveTo observe the effect of telmisartan on the level of serum adiponectin and the expression of cardiac adiponectin (APN) receptor 1 in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) in order to explore the role of APN in ventricular remodeling caused by hypertension and the new possible mechanism that telmisartan protects the heart against ventricular remodeling.Methods The sixteen 12-week-old SHR were randomly divided into SHR control group (SHR group, n=8) and SHR+telmisartan group (TEL group, n=8), and eight age-matched male Wistar Kyoto rats were regarded as control group (WKY group). The TEL group was treated with telmisartan 5 mg-1 · kg-1 ·d-1 in a small amount of distilled water and the other two groups were given equal amount of distilled water by gavage.After 8 weeks, the left ventricular end diastolic diameters (LVEDD),thickness of interventricular septal thickness (IVST), left ventricular post wall thickness (LVPWT) and mitral valve blood flow spectrums were recorded by echoeardiograph.The E/A ratio was calculated by velocity of E peak divided by A peak. The left ventricular weight index (LVWI) was calculated. HE staining and Masson staining were used to detect the pathology changes of cardiac tissue and collagen volume fraction (CVF).Serum APN concentration of SHR was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The myocardial protein expression of AdipoR1 was detected by in munohistochemical staining.Reverse transcription polymerase chain reactions (RTPCR) method was used to detect the mRNA expression of AdipoRl in myocardium.ResultsThe values of IVST, LVPWT and LVWI were higher, LVEDD and E/A ratio were lower in SHR group than in WKY group.The disordered arrangement of myocardialcells,interstitialfibroblast hypertrophy and hyperplasia were observed in SHR group. The CVF increased in SHR group than in WKY group [(6.22±0.16)% vs. (3. 18±0. 17)%, P<0.05]. The concentration of serum APN was significantly lower in SHR group [( 10.96±2. 15)μg/ml vs. (24.32±2. 20)μg/ml, P<0. 01].The expressions of myocardial AdipoR1 mRNA and protein were significantly lower in SHR group.The values of IVST, LVPWT and LVWI were lower, LVEDD and E/A ratio were higher in TEL group than in SHR group. The arrangement of myocardial cells were relatively ordered and interstitial fibroblasts hypertrophy and hyperplasia were not significant, CVF was decreased in TEL group versus SHR group. The concentration of serum APN was significantly higher in TEL group [(17.71 ± 5.82)μg/ml, P<0. 01]. The expressions of myocardial AdipoR1 mRNA and protein were significantly higher in TEL group than in SHR group. Conclusions When SHR undergoes ventricular remodeling, the level of serum APN is lower, the mRNA and protein expressions of myocardial AdipoRl are significantly reduced. Telmisartan can reverse the ventricular remodeling and play the role in protecting heart in SHR, which may be due to the serum APN levels increasing, cardiac APN receptor 1 and its mRNA up-regulation.
