Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) affects profoundly several cardiac ion channels and transporters, and studies of PIP2-sensitive currents in excised patches suggest that PIP2 can be synthesized and broken down within 30 s. To test when, and if, total phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PIP) and PIP(2) levels actually change in intact heart, we used a new, nonradioactive HPLC method to quantify anionic phospholipids. Total PIP and PIP2 levels (10-30 micromol/kg wet weight) do not change, or even increase, with activation of Galpha(q)/phospholipase C (PLC)-dependent pathways by carbachol (50 microM), phenylephrine (50 microM), and endothelin-1 (0.3 microM). Adenosine (0.2 mM) and phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (1microM) both cause 30% reduction of PIP2 in ventricles, suggesting that diacylglycerol (DAG)-dependent mechanisms negatively regulate cardiac PIP2. PIP2, but not PIP, increases reversibly by 30% during electrical stimulation (2 Hz for 5 min) in guinea pig left atria; the increase is blocked by nickel (2 mM). Both PIP and PIP2 increase within 3 min in hypertonic solutions, roughly in proportion to osmolarity, and similar effects occur in multiple cell lines. Inhibitors of several volume-sensitive signaling mechanisms do not affect these responses, suggesting that PIP2 metabolism might be sensitive to membrane tension, per se.

Mechanisms of leptin secretion from white adipocytes.

Cammisotto PG, Bukowiecki LJ.

Department of Physiology, Faculty of Medicine, Laval University, Quebec, Canada G1K 7P4.

The mechanisms regulating leptin secretion were investigated in isolated rat white adipocytes. Insulin (1-100 nM) linearly stimulated leptin secretion from incubated adipocytes for at least 2 h. The adrenergic agonists norepinephrine, isoproterenol (two nonselective beta-agonists), or CL-316243 (potent beta3) all inhibited insulin (10 nM)-stimulated leptin release. The inhibitory effects of norepinephrine and isoproterenol could be reversed not only by the nonselective antagonist propranolol but also by the selective antagonists ICI-89406 (beta1) or ICI-118551 (beta2), the beta2-antagonist being less effective than the beta1. Insulin-stimulated leptin secretion could also be inhibited by a series of agents increasing intracellular cAMP levels, such as lipolytic hormones (ACTH and thyrotropin-stimulating hormone), various nonhydrolyzable cAMP analogs, pertussis toxin, forskolin, methylxanthines (caffeine, theophylline, IBMX), and specific inhibitors of phosphodiesterase III (imazodan, milrinone, and amrinone). Significantly, antilipolytic agents other than insulin (adenosine, nicotinic acid, acipimox, and orthovanadate) did not mimic the acute stimulatory effects of insulin on leptin secretion under these conditions. We conclude that norepinephrine specifically inhibits insulin-stimulated leptin secretion not only via the low-affinity beta3-adrenoceptors but also via the high-affinity beta1/beta2-adrenoceptors. Moreover, it is suggested that 1) activation of phosphodiesterase III by insulin represents an important metabolic step in stimulation of leptin secretion, and 2) lipolytic hormones competitively counterregulate the stimulatory effects of insulin by activating the adenylate cyclase system.

Fat distribution and insulin sensitivity in postmenopausal women: influence of hormone replacement.

Munoz J, Derstine A, Gower BA.

Department of Nutrition Sciences, Division of Physiology and Metabolism, and Clinical Nutrition Research Center, University of Alabama at Birmingham, 35294-3360, USA. munozab.edu

OBJECTIVE: To examine cross-sectionally the influence of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) on the relationship between body composition and insulin sensitivity (Si). RESEARCH METHODS AND PROCEDURES: Subjects were 57 early postmenopausal white women, 33 receiving HRT and 24 controls. Body composition was estimated using DXA and computed tomography scans at the abdomen and mid-thigh. Si was assessed by a frequently sampled intravenous glucose tolerance test with minimal model analysis. RESULTS: Compared with nonusers, HRT users had lower visceral adipose tissue, fasting serum glucose, and fasting insulin. Total body fat and unadjusted Si did not differ between groups. Visceral adipose tissue mass (VATM) was the only body-fat compartment significantly associated with Si (r(2) = 0.43, p < 0.0001) in a model including total-body fat, upper-trunk fat, subcutaneous abdominal fat mass, leg fat, and mid-thigh low-density lean tissue. Lean body mass was positively correlated with Si among HRT users and tended to be negatively correlated among nonusers. HRT status also affected the relationship between VATM and Si such that, relative to nonusers, HRT users had lower Si across lower VATM levels, but higher Si across higher VATM. DISCUSSION: These results suggest that in postmenopausal women, VATM is uniquely related to Si. HRT affects the relationship between VATM and Si and between lean body mass and Si. These interactions should be considered in future studies.

Adrenal C19 steroids and serum lipoprotein levels in healthy men.

BACKGROUND AND AIM: It has become apparent that dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) plays a protective role in atherosclerosis, but its influence on serum lipids has not yet been clarified. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association of endogenous adrenal C19 steroid hormones [(DHEA) and androstenedione (ASD)] and serum lipoprotein levels. METHODS AND RESULTS: The serum concentrations of dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate (DHEA-S), ASD, total and free testosterone, estradiol, total cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C), HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C), triglycerides, apolipoprotein AI (ApoAI) and apolipoprotein B100 (ApoB100) were measured in a sample of 88 healthy men. Statistical analysis using Spearman's correlation coefficient showed a positive correlation between DHEA-S levels and ApoAI (p = 0.034), a negative correlation between ASD and triglycerides (p = 0.005), a positive correlation between ASD and LDL-C (p = 0.005), and a negative correlation between estradiol and HDL-C (p = 0.042). Multiple regression analysis revealed that DHEA-S is an independent factor for ApoAI, ASD an independent factor for triglycerides and LDL-C, and age an independent factor for ApoB100; estradiol was found to be a suggestive factor for HDL. CONCLUSIONS: The results suggest that the plasma levels of DHEA-S and ASD (adrenal C19 steroid hormones) correlate with the plasma lipid profiles of healthy men. It remains to be seen whether this profile is favourable.

NMR studies of CCK-8/CCK1 complex support membrane-associated pathway for ligand-receptor interaction.

Giragossian C, Pellegrini M, Mierke DF.

Department of Chemistry, Brown University, Providence, RI 02912, USA.

The interaction of peptide ligands with their associated G-protein-coupled receptors has been examined by a number of different experimental approaches over the years. We have been developing an approach utilizing high-resolution NMR to determine the structural features of the peptide ligand, well-designed fragments of the receptor, and the ligand-receptor complexes formed upon titration of the peptide hormone. The results from these investigations provide evidence for a membrane-associated pathway for the initial interaction of peptide ligands with the receptor. Here, our results from the investigation of the interaction of CCK-8 with the CCK1 receptor are described. Our spectroscopic results clearly show that both CCK-8 and the regions of CCK1 with which it interacts are closely associated with the zwitterionic interface of the lipids utilized in our solution spectroscopic studies.

Natural Herbal Supplement: Hair Million


Hair Loss, or alopecia is a concern for increasing number of folks in aging society. Loss of hair is a visible problem, and affects the appearance and changes identity of a person.
The phenomenon of hair thinning and hair loss is most commonly associated with natural aging, although there are many other causes of hair loss, which include inherited or genetic conditions, illnesses, malnutrition, stress, hormonal problems, chemotherapy, and use of some drugs.
Hair growth is a sophisticated biological process, which has not yet been completely understood. A multitude of therapeutic measures, including drugs, surgery, and suppelements have been made available, and used. However, due to the heterogeneity in the underlying cause, there is no perfect cure for all hair loss cases. Most of chemical drugs and hair transplantation surgeries are not free from varying degrees of undesirable side effects on health.

Hair Million is an alternative solution to hair loss problems. Anecdotally, it shows prositive results and improvement for age-related hair thinning and hair loss for a fraction of people who take it. We do not know the mechanisms of action as to how Hair Million works to help stop hair loss, and promote hair growth. We only know by anecdotal observations. There has been no clinical trials nor placebo controlled statistical analysis on the efficacy of Hair Million on hair loss and hair growth. However, there are two merits in this hair restoration herbal formula:
Firstly, Hair Million is rather inexpensive, and secondly, it is made of well known herbs that are safe when consumed in regular quantities.














DHEA is a natural hormone, and it is produced in our body by the adrenal glands. DHEA has been suggested to provide numerous potential benefits. DHEA (or dehydroepiandrosterone) is converted into androgens (male hormones) or estrogens (female hormones) in the cells.
