Blocking intestinal bile acid absorption by inhibiting the apical sodium codependent bile acid transporter (ASBT) is a target for increasing hepatic bile acid synthesis and reducing plasma LDL cholesterol. SC-435 was identified as a potent inhibitor of ASBT (IC50 = 1.5 nM) in cells transfected with the human ASBT gene. Dietary administration of 3 mg/kg to 30 mg/kg SC-435 to apolipoprotein E-/- (apoE-/-) mice increased fecal bile acid excretion by >2.5-fold. In vivo inhibition of ASBT also resulted in significant increases of hepatic mRNA levels for cholesterol 7alpha-hydroxylase and HMG-CoA reductase. Administration of 10 mg/kg SC-435 for 12 weeks to apoE-/- mice lowered serum total cholesterol by 35% and reduced aortic root lesion area by 65%. Treatment of apoE-/- mice also resulted in decreased expression of ileal bile acid binding protein and hepatic nuclear hormone receptor small heterodimer partner, direct target genes of the farnesoid X receptor (FXR), suggesting a possible role of FXR in SC-435 modulation of cholesterol homeostasis. In dogs, SC-435 treatment reduced serum total cholesterol levels by </=12% and, in combination with atorvastatin treatment, caused an additional reduction of 25%. These results suggest that specific inhibition of ASBT is a novel therapeutic approach for treatment of hypercholesterolemia resulting in a decreased risk for atherosclerosis.

Bone health in patients with fibromyalgia.

Objectives. To determine whether women with fibromyalgia are at increased risk of developing osteoporosis or osteomalacia. Methods. Forty premenopausal women with fibromyalgia and 37 age-matched female controls were studied. Broadband ultrasound attenuation (BUA) and velocity of sound (VOS) were measured at the calcaneum and bone mineral density was measured at the forearm and lumbar spine using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Serum calcium, alkaline phosphatase, gamma-glutamyl transferase, 25-hydroxyvitamin D and plasma viscosity were measured in all subjects and parathyroid hormone was measured in subjects recruited in the latter part of the study. Results. Seventeen patients with fibromyalgia syndrome and seven controls had 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentrations <20 nmol/l (P < 0.015) and in three FMS patients serum parathyroid hormone was raised. Bone density in fibromyalgia patients was slightly lower at the mid-distal forearm but comparable to that in controls at other sites. Conclusions. There is no reason to recommend routine bone densitometry in fibromyalgia patients. However, vitamin D subnutrition is common in these patients and this should be sought.

Human acetyl-CoA carboxylase 1 gene: presence of three promoters and heterogeneity at the 5'-untranslated mRNA region.

Acetyl-CoA carboxylase 1 (ACC1) catalyzes the formation of malonyl-CoA, the C2 donor for de novo synthesis of long-chain fatty acids. We have identified 64 exons, including 7 alternatively spliced minor exons (1A, 1B, 1C, 3, 5A', 5A, and 5B) in human ACC1 gene ( approximately 330 kb). The gene is regulated by three promoters (PI, PII, and PIII), which are located upstream of exons 1, 2, and 5A, respectively. PI is a constitutive promoter and has no homology with the PI sequences of other mammalian ACC1. PII is regulated by various hormones. PIII is expressed in a tissue-specific manner. The presence of several alternatively spliced exons does not alter the translation of the 265-kDa ACC1 protein starting from an ATG present in exon 5. Translation of PIII transcripts from exon 5A generates a 259-kDa isoform in which the N-terminal 75 aa of 265-kDa ACC1 are replaced with a new sequence of 17 aa. Interestingly, the inclusion of exon 5B between 5A and 6 in PIII transcripts would yield a third 257-kDa isoform, which is translated from an ATG in exon 6. However, the presence of exon 5B in PI and PII transcripts leads to an in-frame stop codon that results in an ACC1-related 77-aa peptide. The presence of alternatively spliced exons and three isoforms of ACC1 could contribute to overall ACC1 activity either by influencing the mRNA stability and translational efficiency or by increasing the stability and specific activity of the ACC1 protein, respectively.

Cell differentiation, secondary cell-wall formation and transformation of callus tissue of Pinus radiata D. Don.

Tracheid and sclereid differentiation was induced in callus cultures of Pinus radiata D. Don by culturing on a basal medium containing activated charcoal but no phytohormones; sclereids differentiated in callus derived from xylem strips, but not in callus derived from hypocotyl segments. The tracheids differentiated in hypocotyl-derived callus had helical, scalariform, reticulated or pitted secondary cell-wall patterns, but those differentiated in xylem-derived callus had a reticulate or pitted pattern. The thickened tracheid and sclereid walls contained lignin as indicated by the red colour reaction given with phloroglucinol-HCl. The presence of lignin in the cell walls of differentiated callus was confirmed using pyrolysis gas chromatography-mass spectrometry by the detection of phenylpropanoid components derived from lignin. Lignin was also detected using solid-state (13)C cross-polarisation/magic-angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and quantified as thioglycolic acid lignin. Monosaccharide analyses of the cell walls isolated from differentiated and undifferentiated calli showed that the cell walls of the differentiated calli contained higher proportions of glucose and mannose, consistent with the presence of greater proportions of gluco- and/or galactogluco-mannans in the secondary cell walls of the differentiated cells. A protocol for the stable transformation of undifferentiated, xylem-derived cultures was successfully developed. Transgenic cell lines were established following Biolistic particle bombardment with a plasmid containing the coding region of the nptII gene and the coding region of the cad gene from P. radiata. Expression of the nptII gene in transgenic lines was confirmed by an NPTII-enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The overexpression of cad in the transgenic lines resulted in a down-regulation of cinnamyl alcohol dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.195) expression.

The effect of exercise duration and mode on the growth hormone responses in young women on oral contraceptives.

Previous research is conflicting concerning the minimum time duration needed to elicit a growth hormone (GH) response to aerobic exercise; thus, the purpose of this project was to examine the effects of mode and duration on exercise-induced GH responses in young women taking oral contraceptives. Nine healthy young females on oral contraceptives exercised at 75% of their mode-specific peak aerobic power ( Vdot;O(2)peak) on the treadmill and cycle ergometer for 10, 15 and 20 min, with serial blood samples taken at rest and every 10 min throughout the entire 5.5 h of the study. Each exercise bout was followed by 70 min of rest. A significant ( P<0.02) GH response was observed at the end of exercise regardless of the duration or mode of exercise. The peak GH concentrations were 12.2 (1.8), 10.2 (1.6), and 7.6 (1.5) ng.ml(-1) for the 10-, 15-, and 20-min exercise bouts on the treadmill, respectively. For the cycle ergometer, peak GH concentrations were 9.3 (2.0), 6.3 (1.0), and 9.8 (1.7) ng.ml(-1), respectively. The total integrated area under the curve was not significantly different between the cycle and treadmill exercise for each exercise duration. Moderate-intensity aerobic exercise is sufficient to produce a GH response in as little as 10 min during both treadmill and cycling exercise in young women taking oral contraceptives. Overall, the mode of exercise does not impact the exercise-induced GH response.

Hair loss is a problem in modern soceity. Examining the factors of hair growth may shed light on how hair loss might occur. How long can hair grow before it stops growing eventually if it does? Given that the hair growth rate is quite uniform and constant, somewhere between 0.3-0.5 millimeters per day, it's believed that the length of anagen, the growth phase, differs among individuals, and this is the major determinant to the maximum hair length. For some individuals, anagen may last ten years. Of course the length of the anagen is governed by genes, and the genetic background of the individuals. Non-genetic factors such as nutritional condition, weather, seasonal changes (hair may grow a bit faster during winter), taking medications, health condition may of course influence the rate of hair growth as well as hair loss. The shape of the hair, straight or curly, is dependent on the shape of the follicle. A circular or round hair follicle would generate straight hair, while the follicle with oval or elliptical shapes (in its cross-section) would produce a curly hair.
