Inappropriate expression of hepcidin is associated with iron refractory anemia: implications for the anemia of chronic disease.

The anemia of chronic disease is a prevalent, poorly understood condition that afflicts patients with a wide variety of diseases, including infections, malignancies, and rheumatologic disorders. It is characterized by a blunted erythropoietin response by erythroid precursors, decreased red blood cell survival, and a defect in iron absorption and macrophage iron retention, which interrupts iron delivery to erythroid precursor cells. We noted that patients with large hepatic adenomas had severe iron refractory anemia similar to that observed in anemia of chronic disease. This anemia resolved spontaneously after adenoma resection or liver transplantation. We investigated the role of the adenomas in the pathogenesis of the anemia and found that they produce inappropriately high levels of hepcidin mRNA. Hepcidin is a peptide hormone that has been implicated in controlling the release of iron from cells. We conclude that hepcidin plays a major, causative role in the anemia observed in our subgroup of patients with hepatic adenomas, and we speculate that it is important in the pathogenesis of the anemia of chronic disease in general.

G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) transduce the signal of a wide variety of chemokines, cytokines, neurotransmitters, hormones, odorants, and others to regulate the biologic homeostasis, including hematopoiesis and immunity. Here we report the molecular cloning of leukocyte-specific STAT-induced GPCR (LSSIG), which is a novel murine orphan GPCR with the highest homology to human GPR43. The mRNA expression of LSSIG was clearly induced in M1 leukemia cells during the leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF)-induced differentiation to macrophages, and the induction was evidently signal transducers and activators of transcription 3 (STAT3)-dependent. GPR43 expression was also strongly induced in HL-60 and U937 leukemia cells during the differentiation to monocytes. Further analysis showed that the expression of both LSSIG and GPR43 is highly restricted in hematopoietic tissues. Cytokine-stimulation induced LSSIG and GPR43 in bone marrow cells, and monocytes and neutrophils, respectively. These results suggest that LSSIG and GPR43 might play pivotal roles in differentiation and immune response of monocytes and granulocytes.

Ovariectomy causes cell proliferation and matrix synthesis in the growth plate cartilage of the adult rat.

The in vivo effects of ovariectomy in rats have been studied on cell proliferation and matrix synthesis in the growth plate cartilage by assessing immunohistochemically the levels of proliferating cell nuclear antigen and chondroitin sulphate proteoglycan(s). The serum levels of insulin-like growth factor-I and growth hormone were also measured by radioimmunoassay procedures. At 5 weeks after ovariectomy, the serum levels of the growth factor were significantly higher than those in sham-operated rats. In contrast, the level of growth hormone was lower. The nuclear staining of proliferating cell nuclear antigen was generally seen in the zone of proliferative chondrocytes from both groups of rats. Whereas almost all chondrocytes in the proliferative zone of ovariectomized rats expressed proliferating cell nuclear antigen immunoreactivity, fewer did so in that of the sham rats. Quantitative image analysis by ACAS 570 laser cytometry demonstrated that the nuclear antigen-positive sites in ovariectomized rats had significantly higher integrated values (staining intensity), areas and perimeters than those in sham rats. In addition, the number of chondroitin sulphate proteoglycan-immunoreactive cells in the proliferative chondrocytes was also higher in ovariectomized rats than in sham ones. These results suggest that ovariectomy significantly stimulates the cell proliferation and matrix synthesis in the growth plate cartilage, probably through the higher serum level of insulin-like growth factor-I.

Dexamethasone-induced apoptosis of thymocytes: role of glucocorticoid receptor-associated Src kinase and caspase-8 activation.

Glucocorticoid hormones (GCHs) regulate normal and neoplastic lymphocyte development by exerting antiproliferative and/or apoptotic effects. We have previously shown that dexamethasone (DEX)-activated thymocyte apoptosis requires a sequence of events including interaction with the glucocorticoid receptor (GR), phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC), and acidic sphingomyelinase (aSMase) activation. We analyzed the mechanisms of GCH-activated apoptosis by focusing on GR-associated Src kinase, cytochrome c release, and caspase-8, -9, and -3 activation. We show here that PI-PLC binds to GR-associated Src kinase, as indicated by coimmunoprecipitation experiments. Moreover, DEX treatment induces PI-PLC phosphorylation and activation. DEX-induced PI-PLC phosphorylation, activation, and apoptosis are inhibited by PP1, a Src kinase inhibitor, thus suggesting that Src-mediated PI-PLC activation is involved in DEX-induced apoptosis. Caspase-9, -8, and -3 activation and cytochrome c release can be detected 1 to 2 hours after DEX treatment. Caspase-9 inhibition does not counter cytochrome c release, caspase-8 and caspase-3 activation, and apoptosis. Caspase-8 inhibition counters cytochrome c release, caspase-9 and caspase-3 activation, and apoptosis, thus suggesting that caspase-8 inhibitor can directly inhibit caspase-9 and/or that DEX-induced caspase-8 activation is upstream to mitochondria and can regulate caspase-3 directly or through cytochrome c release and the consequent caspase-9/caspase-3 activation. DEX-induced caspase-8 activation, like ceramide-induced caspase-8 activation, correlates with the formation of Fas-associated death domain protein (FADD)/caspase-8 complex. Caspase-8 activation is countered by the inhibition of macromolecular synthesis and of Src kinase, PI-PLC, and aSMase activation, suggesting it is downstream in the DEX-activated apoptotic pathway of thymocytes.

An intrinsic thyrotropin-mediated pathway of TNF-alpha production by bone marrow cells.

Recent studies have identified a role for thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH; ie, thyrotropin) as an inductive signal for tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) secretion by bone marrow (BM) cells, although the features of that activation pathway have not been defined. Using intracellular TSH staining and enzyme-linked immunoassay for detection of secreted TSH, we demonstrate that TSH synthesis in BM cells occurs within CD45(+) (leukocyte common antigen) hematopoietic cells and that the majority of that activity resides in a component of CD11b(+) BM cells that are not mature T cells, B cells, or Thy-1(+) cells in the BM. Conversely, TSH-responsive BM cells defined by expression of TSH receptor (TSHR) using flow cytometry were selectively associated with a nonerythroid CD11b(-) lymphocyte precursor population. In vitro culture of magnetic-activated cell sorted CD11b(-) and CD11b(+) cells with titrated amounts of purified TSH resulted in significantly higher levels of TNF-alpha secretion from CD11b(-) BM cells compared to non-TSH-treated cells, with no appreciable change in TNF-alpha production from CD11b(+) cells. These findings are the first to demonstrate TSH production by BM hematopoietic cells, and they demonstrate that TSH may be involved in the regulation of TNF-alpha by CD11b(-) BM cells. They also indicate that TSH-mediated regulation of TNF-alpha secretion within the BM most likely operates through an intrinsic network of TSH production and use between different types of BM cells, and they suggest that local TSH may be an important homeostatic regulator of hematopoiesis mediated by TNF-alpha.

Hair growth is a sophisticated biological process, which is still not thoroughly understood. A multitude of therapeutic measures, including drugs, surgery, and suppelements have been made available, and used. However, due to the diversity of the problems underlying hair loss, there is no single solution 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 cope with hair loss problems. Anecdotally, it shows prositive results and improvement especially 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.














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.
