Previous studies from our laboratory and those of others have shown thyroxine to be a stimulator of coronary microvascular growth. The present study tested the hypothesis that 3,5-diiodothyropropionic acid (DITPA), a thyroid hormone analog with inotropic but not chronotopic characteristics, is angiogenic in the nonischemic heart. Daily injections (3.75 mg/kg sc) of DITPA to Sprague-Dawley rats affected protein increases in vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)(164), VEGF(188,) basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) (FGF-2), angiopoietin-1, and Tie-2 during the first few days of treatment. After 3 wk of treatment, arteriolar length density and the relative number of terminal arterioles (<10 microm diameter) increased in the left ventricle as determined by image analysis of perfuse-fixed hearts. These findings occurred in hearts that did not undergo changes in mass nor in increases in capillary length density. We conclude that DITPA, which is known to improve ventricular function after infarction, is angiogenic in normal nonischemic hearts.

Members of the transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) superfamily play a variety of important roles in testicular development and function. The tumor suppressor gene, Smad4, is a common mediator of TGF-beta, activin, and bone morphogenetic protein-mediated signaling pathways. To investigate the role of the Smad4 gene during testicular development and function, transgenic mice were generated using a Flag-tagged Smad4 gene driven by 180-bp fragment of the Mullerian inhibiting substance upstream promoter sequence. Three Smad4 transgenic founders (A, B, and G) were detected by Southern blot analysis; line B showed the highest expression of the Smad4 transgene and was further studied. The fertility in F1 generation (B) and F2 generation (BB) of the Smad4 transgenic mice was not impaired. However, in the F3 generation (B2x) all animals were impacted by the overexpression of the Smad4 transgene and two kinds of phenotypes were observed. In one group animals were completely infertile, while in the other group animals were fertile and sired the normal number of pups/litter. These groups are designated as infertile and fertile in the text. Histological evaluation of the testes from the infertile group showed variable degrees of Leydig cell hyperplasia, apoptosis of germ cells, spermatogenic arrest, seminiferous tubule degeneration, and infertility. In the fertile group, there was no apparent change in the histology of the testis except for a slight increase in the number of Leydig cells. Serum follicle-stimulating hormone levels in the adult animals of both groups of Smad4 transgenic male mice were not significantly different from normal littermates; however, testosterone levels in both groups were significantly (P < 0.05) increased. These results suggest that overexpression of Smad4 leads to testicular abnormalities and infertility supporting the hypothesis that the TGF-beta signaling pathways are carefully orchestrated during testicular development. In the absence of normal levels of Smad4 testicular function is compromised.

Aldosterone-induced inflammation in the rat heart : role of oxidative stress.

Heart failure and hypertension have each been linked to an induction of oxidative stress transduced by neurohormones, such as angiotensin II and catecholamines. Herein, we hypothesized that aldosterone (ALDO) likewise induces oxidative stress and accounts for a proinflammatory/fibrogenic phenotype that appears at vascular and nonvascular sites of injury found in both right and left ventricles in response to ALDO/salt treatment and that would be sustained with chronic treatment. Uninephrectomized rats received ALDO (0.75 micro g/hour) together with 1% dietary NaCl, for 3, 4, or 5 weeks. Other groups received this regimen in combination with an ALDO receptor antagonist, spironolactone (200 mg/kg p.o. daily), or an antioxidant, either pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC) (200 mg/kg s.c. daily) or N-acetylcysteine (NAC) (200 mg/kg i.p. daily). Unoperated and untreated age- and gender-matched rats served as controls. We monitored spatial and temporal responses in molecular and cellular events using serial, coronal sections of right and left ventricles. Our studies included: assessment of systolic blood pressure; immunohistochemical detection of NADPH oxidase expression and activity; analysis of redox-sensitive nuclear factor-kappaB activation; in situ localization of intercellular adhesion molecule-1, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha mRNA expression; monitoring cell growth and infiltration of macrophages and T cells; and analysis of the appearance and quantity of fibrous tissue accumulation. At week 3 of ALDO/salt treatment and comparable to controls, there was no evidence of oxidative stress or pathological findings in the heart. However, at weeks 4 and 5 of treatment, increased gp91(phox) and 3-nitrotyrosine expression and persistent activation of RelA were found in endothelial cells and inflammatory cells that appeared in the perivascular space of intramural coronary arteries and at sites of lost cardiomyocytes in both ventricles. Coincident in time and space with these events was increased mRNA expression of intercellular adhesion molecule-1, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha. Macrophages, lymphocytes, and proliferating endothelial and vascular smooth muscle cells and fibroblast-like cells were seen at each of these sites, together with an accumulation of fibrillar collagen, or fibrosis, as evidenced by a significant increase in ventricular collagen volume fraction. Co-treatment with spironolactone, PDTC, or NAC attenuated these molecular and cellular responses as well as the appearance of fibrosis at vascular and nonvascular sites of injury. Furthermore, elevated systolic blood pressure in ALDO-treated rats was partially suppressed by spironolactone or either antioxidant. Thus, chronic ALDO/salt treatment is accompanied by a time-dependent sustained activation of NADPH oxidase with 3-nitrotyrosine generation and nuclear factor-kappaB activation expressed by endothelial cells and inflammatory cells. This leads to a proinflammatory/fibrogenic phenotype involving vascular and nonvascular sites of injury found, respectively, in both normotensive and hypertensive right and left ventricles. Spionolactone, PDTC, and NAC each attenuated these responses suggesting ALDO/salt induction of oxidative/nitrosative stress is responsible for the appearance of this proinflammatory phenotype.

(13)C-(1)H NMR relaxation and fluorescence anisotropy decay study of tyrosine dynamics in motilin.

Tyrosine ring dynamics of the gastrointestinal hormone motilin was studied using two independent physical methods: fluorescence polarization anisotropy decay and NMR relaxation. Motilin, a 22-residue peptide, was selectively (13)C labeled in the ring epsilon-carbons of the single tyrosine residue. To eliminate effects of differences in peptide concentration, the same motilin sample was used in both experiments. NMR relaxation rates of the tyrosine ring C(epsilon)-H(epsilon) vectors, measured at four magnetic field strengths (9.4, 11.7, 14.1, and 18.8 Tesla) were used to map the spectral density function. When the data were analyzed using dynamic models with the same number of components, the dynamic parameters from NMR and fluorescence are in excellent agreement. However, the estimated rotational correlation times depend on the choice of dynamic model. The correlation times estimated from the two-component model-free approach and the three-component models were significantly different (1.7 ns and 2.2 ns, respectively). Various earlier studies of protein dynamics by NMR and fluorescence were compared. The rotational correlation times estimated by NMR for samples with high protein concentration were on average 18% longer for folded monomeric proteins than the corresponding times estimated by fluorescence polarization anisotropy decay, after correction for differences in viscosity due to temperature and D(2)O/H(2)O ratio.

Immune activation of hypothalamic corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) provides a negative feedback mechanism to modulate peripheral inflammatory responses. We investigated whether central CRF attenuates endothelial expression of intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1) and leukocyte recruitment during endotoxemia in rats and determined its mechanisms of action. As measured by intravital microscopy, lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induced a dose-dependent increase in leukocyte rolling, adhesion, and emigration in mesenteric venules, which was associated with upregulation of endothelial ICAM-1 expression. Intracisternal injection of CRF abrogated both the increased expression of ICAM-1 and leukocyte recruitment. Intravenous injection of the specific CRF receptor antagonist astressin did not modify leukocyte-endothelial cell interactions induced by a high dose of LPS but enhanced leukocyte adhesion induced by a low dose. Blockade of endogenous glucocorticoids but not alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (alpha-MSH) receptors reversed the inhibitory action of CRF on leukocyte-endothelial cell interactions during endotoxemia. In conclusion, cerebral CRF blunts endothelial upregulation of ICAM-1 and attenuates the recruitment of leukocytes during endotoxemia. The anti-inflammatory effects of CRF are mediated by adrenocortical activation and additional mechanisms independent of alpha-MSH.

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.












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. Our bodies produce decreasing amount of DHEA as we get older. various health benefits: To deter aging, improve sexual function/erectile dysfunction, treat cognitive decline, enhance athletic performance, facilitate weight loss, improve strength, prevent osteoporosis, enhance immunomodulation for rheumatic conditions, and treat depression.
