Dual regulation of voltage-gated calcium channels by PtdIns(4,5)P2.

Wu L, Bauer CS, Zhen XG, Xie C, Yang J.

Department of Biological Sciences, Columbia University, New York, New York 10027, USA.

Voltage-gated calcium channels (VGCCs) conduct calcium into cells after membrane depolarization and are vital for diverse biological events. They are regulated by various signalling pathways, which has profound functional consequences. The activity of VGCCs decreases with time in whole-cell and inside-out patch-clamp recordings. This rundown reflects persistent intrinsic modulation of VGCCs in intact cells. Although several mechanisms have been reported to contribute to rundown of L-type channels, the mechanism of rundown of other types of VGCC is poorly understood. Here we show that phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P2), an essential regulator of ion channels and transporters, is crucial for maintaining the activity of P/Q- and N-type channels. Activation of membrane receptors that stimulate hydrolysis of PtdIns(4,5)P2 causes channel inhibition in oocytes and neurons. PtdIns(4,5)P2 also inhibits P/Q-type channels by altering the voltage dependence of channel activation and making the channels more difficult to open. This inhibition is alleviated by phosphorylation by protein kinase A. The dual actions of PtdIns(4,5)P2 and the crosstalk between PtdIns(4,5)P2 and protein kinase A set up a dynamic mechanism through which the activity of VGCCs can be finely tuned by various neurotransmitters, hormones and trophic factors.

Department for General, Visceral, and Vascular Surgery, Martin Luther University Halle/Wittenberg, Ernst-Grube-Strasse 40, 06097 Halle/Saale, Germany. michael.brauckhofedizin.uni-halle.de

BACKGROUND: In most examined populations the RET germline polymorphism S836S is found in about 3.6% of the normal population but in about 9% of patients suffering from sporadic C-cell hyperplasia or medullary thyroid carcinoma. The polymorphism S836S is thought to be involved in the development of sporadic medullary thyroid carcinoma. CASE PRESENTATION: We report a 48-year-old woman suffering from primary hyperparathyroidism (parathormone 121-166 pg/ml, normal <72), bilateral diffuse and nodular C-cell hyperplasia (calcitonin after pentagastrin administration 156 pg/ml, normal <4.6), and papillary thyroid carcinoma. Two commercial analyses of RET did not reveal any germline mutation within the known hot spots. However, sequencing revealed the presence of the RET polymorphism S836S. Following total thyroidectomy and removal of two hyperplastic parathyroid glands parathormone decreased to 51 pg/ml and calcitonin was no longer detected. CONCLUSIONS: The pathogenetic importance of the RET polymorphism S836S is still obscure. However, according to the published overrepresentation of the RET polymorphism S836S in patients suffering from apparent sporadic medullary thyroid carcinoma, it is conceivable that it also plays a role in multiglandular endocrine disease.

BACKGROUND: Total parathyroidectomy with autografting of parathyroid tissue and subtotal resection of the parathyroid glands are currently considered as standard surgical procedures for the treatment of severe secondary hyperparathyroidism. However, a considerable recurrence rate following these procedures ranges from 5% to 80%. We present a retrospective analysis of the results of parathyroidectomy with autotransplantation to the forearm versus parathyroidectomy alone. PATIENTS AND METHODS: We analyzed the clinical course of 11 consecutive patients who had undergone parathyroidectomy between 1995 and 1999, and who were not simultaneously autografted. Controls were 11 patients in whom autotransplantation of parathyroid tissue into the forearm had been routinely performed between 1993 and 1996 at our institution. Clinical symptoms and recurrence of hyperparathyroidism were assessed for comparison of the alternative treatment modalities. Recurrence of disease was defined by elevated parathormone (PTH) levels (>7.6 pmol/l) with clinical symptoms and/or need for reoperation. RESULTS: No recurrence of hyperparathyroidism was observed in patients without autotransplantation after a mean follow-up of 23 months (range 1-49). Measurement of intact serum PTH revealed residual PTH secretion even after removal of four glands (mean 2.02 pmol/l). Clinical symptoms improved substantially after surgery. In the historical control group 3 of the 11 autotransplanted patients (27%) required resection of transplanted tissue. Additionally, two patients (18%) presented with increased PTH secretion and clinical symptoms of recurrent hyperparathyroidism during follow-up. Thus, a total of five patients (45%) experienced relapsing hyperparathyroidism caused by the implanted tissue. CONCLUSIONS: Total parathyroidectomy without autotransplantation is a safe procedure with a low rate of recurrent hyperparathyroidism when compared to parathyroidectomy with autotransplantation to the forearm in a historical control. These preliminary results mandates further investigations including a randomized trial.

Center for Clinical Epidemiology and Biostatistics, University of Pennsylvania, 922 Blockley Hall, 423 Guardian Drive, Philadelphia PA 19104-6021, USA. dnelsoceb.med.upenn.edu

AIMS: This study was designed to determine the association between coagulation factors and spontaneous abortion adjusting for sex steroids and to examine the influence of sex hormones on coagulation factors early in pregnancy. METHODS: Pregnant women presenting to the emergency department at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania were recruited and followed through 22 weeks gestation. Cases were women who experienced a spontaneous abortion (n=29) and controls were women who maintained their pregnancy to 22 weeks gestation (n=89). Participants completed a baseline questionnaire to assess demographic, reproductive, and drug use information. Blood samples measured estradiol, progesterone, fibrinogen, and factor VII antigen. RESULTS: Cases of spontaneous abortion had significantly lower levels of estradiol, progesterone, fibrinogen and factor VII antigen compared to controls. The relationship between low levels of fibrinogen and factor VII antigen was diminished adjusting for the sex steroids. Regression analyses found low progesterone was the primary prospective marker for early pregnancy loss among our study population. CONCLUSIONS: The relationship between coagulation factors and spontaneous abortion was reduced after adjustment for progesterone suggesting that progesterone mediates the relationship between low levels of coagulation factors and spontaneous abortion. Progesterone seems to be the primary marker for a spontaneous abortion among women seeking emergent care.

Successful pregnancy in a patient having high basal serum levels of sex steroid hormones.

Furuhashi M, Suganuma N, Nishimori K.

Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Handa City Hospital, Aichi, Japan.

A 25-year-old infertile woman who had higher basal levels of serum progesterone (P) and estradiol (E(2)) was examined. Ultrasonography and gonadotropin-releasing hormone test suggested polycystic ovarian syndrome. The high serum E(2) and P concentration increased even more along follicle growth and after ovulation, respectively. Although the source of the higher levels of steroids was unclear, she became pregnant with artificial insemination of husband's sperm and luteal support with human chorionic gonadotropin administration, and delivered a healthy newborn. Through the present study, we can conclude that the high basal level of P in follicular phase may not always impair reproduction, although several reports stress that it adversely affects oocyte maturation and fertilization, and is harmful to endometrial receptivity.

Natural Herbal Supplement: Hair Million


Hair loss alone does not pose significant health problems. In fact, there are people who opt for baldness as an alternative hair style. However, in general, however, hair loss is not considered desirable.

The most ostensive feature that distinguishes us human from chimps and other primates is the lack of bodily hair. During evolutionary process, we have lost the majority of hair. Hair is no longer a biologically essential part of our body, just like appendix. The hair we still have on our scalp and a few other bodily parts is still regarded as significant for reasons other than biological necessity. Hair loss is naturally accompanied by aging process, although the extent of hair loss and the timing of onset vary widely among individuals. Thus, loss of hair and baldness is considered as a symbol of maturity or old age. Like winkles and other signs of aging, hair loss is not welcome by most people, because we don't welcome aging, and being perceived as an aging person. However, it is alopecia, or premature hair loss that especially concerns certain people.

While the hair loss and resulting baldness in general have not been proven to be related to underlying health problems, there are certain correlations between hair loss and health problems. For instance, premature hair loss could suggest premature aging or nutritional and hormonal imbalance, stressful life, use of drugs that cause hair loss as a side effect, skin disease, or heart disease. The balding appearance could also impart a subdued impression of integrity in bodily health and youthfulness.
