Oral spermine administration inhibits nitric oxide-mediated intestinal damage and levels of systemic inflammatory mediators in a mouse endotoxin model.

Enhanced intestinal nitric oxide production observed during sepsis is thought to play a central role in lipopolysaccharide-induced intestinal damage. In contrast intestinal polyamines, both from endogenous and exogenous origin, are essential for the maintenance of mucosal integrity. Polyamines have been shown to inhibit lipopolysaccharide-induced nitric oxide release in vitro and have been claimed to exert additional antiinflammatory actions. In this study, the effect of the polyamine spermine on the release of the proinflammatory mediators nitric oxide and tumor necrosis factor-alpha by a murine macrophage cell line was investigated. Furthermore, we investigated whether oral spermine administration inhibits lipopolysaccharide-induced intestinal inducible nitric oxide synthase and nitrotyrosine expression and modulates the release of inflammatory mediators. Our results show that although spermine inhibited lipopolysaccharide-induced nitric oxide release in a murine macrophage cell line, no effect on tumor necrosis factor-alpha release was observed. In addition, oral spermine administration inhibited intestinal inducible nitric oxide synthase and nitrotyrosine expression suggesting a protective effect of spermine on lipopolysaccharide-induced intestinal damage. In parallel a decrease in serum levels of the proinflammatory mediators nitrate, nitrite, and interferon-gamma and an increase in the antiinflammatory cytokine interleukin-10 was observed, although tumor necrosis factor-alpha levels were unaffected. These results indicate that spermine inhibits lipopolysaccharide-induced nitric oxide release in vitro as well as in vivo. Further, intraluminally derived polyamines modulate the systemic immune response. It is concluded that oral spermine administration might have therapeutic perspectives for several disorders characterized by systemic inflammation and intestinal damage.

Macrophages release proinflammatory cytokines in response to infection that play a critical role in the pathophysiology of septic shock. We propose that targeting cytokine-neutralizing antibodies using albumin microspheres to macrophages will be more beneficial than the soluble form in reducing mortality related to peritonitis. In this study, we compared the distribution pattern of microspheres in infected and noninfected animals, evaluated the amount of microsphere taken up by peritoneal macrophages in vitro, and compared the efficacy of soluble and microsphere forms of cytokine-neutralizing antibodies in preventing lethality caused by Escherichia coli-induced peritonitis. The results indicate that twice the amount of microspheres accumulates near the site of infection (the peritoneal cavity), and 70% of the microspheres exposed to peritoneal macrophages were phagocytosed in 1 h. Treatment with the microsphere form of cytokine-neutralizing antibodies was more efficacious than using the soluble form in preventing lethality induced by E. coli. Immediate treatment was more efficacious than delayed treatment in the absence of gentamicin, whereas immediate and delayed treatment were equally efficacious in the presence of gentamicin. The combination of microspheres containing neutralizing antibodies to tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) protected 100% of the animals, whereas either one alone protected only 60%-90% of the animals from lethality caused by E. coli-induced peritonitis. In conclusion, the microsphere form of neutralizing antibodies to TNF-alpha IL-1beta may be an effective therapeutic agent in the treatment of septic shock caused by peritonitis.

Interleukin-12 (IL-12) inhibits angiogenesis in vivo by inducing interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) and other downstream mediators. Here, we report that neutralization of natural killer (NK) cell function with antibodies to either asialo GM1 or NK 1.1 reversed IL-12 inhibition of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF)-induced angiogenesis in athymic mice. By immunohistochemistry, those sites where bFGF-induced neovascularization was inhibited by IL-12 displayed accumulation of NK cells and the presence of IP-10-positive cells. Based on expression of the cytolytic mediators perforin and granzyme B, the NK cells were locally activated. Experimental Burkitt lymphomas treated locally with IL-12 displayed tumor tissue necrosis, vascular damage, and NK-cell infiltration surrounding small vessels. After activation in vitro with IL-12, NK cells from nude mice became strongly cytotoxic for primary cultures of syngeneic aortic endothelial cells. Cytotoxicity was neutralized by antibodies to IFN-gamma. These results document that NK cells are required mediators of angiogenesis inhibition by IL-12, and provide evidence that NK-cell cytotoxicity of endothelial cells is a potential mechanism by which IL-12 can suppress neovascularization.

BACKGROUND: The clinical advantages of laparoscopic procedures result from a minimized surgical trauma. The present study was performed to investigate immunosupression following laparoscopic operations as compared with open surgery. Our analysis focused on the T cell secretion of cytokines that regulate the critical balance of either T helper type-1 (Th1)- and Th2-mediated immune responses on pro- and antiinflammatory activities. METHODS: In a prospective study, immunological data of 26 patients submitted to laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LCE) and 17 patients undergoing conventional cholecystectomy (CCE) for symptomatic cholecystolithiasis were compared. Patients with acute cholecystitis and patients developing postoperative complications or receiving immunosuppressive medication were excluded. Production of interferon (IFN)-gamma, interleukin (IL)-2, IL-4, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha, and IL-10 by isolated T cells stimulated by cross-linking of CD3 and CD28 was evaluated preoperatively as well as on postoperative days 1 and 6 or 7. Cytokines were measured by immunoenzymometric assay. RESULTS: IFN-gamma, TNF-alpha, and IL-2 production by T cells decreased significantly by 48.3%, 36.6%, and 36.8%, respectively, on postoperative day 1 after CCE, but not after LCE. These results indicate severe suppression of Th1-type and proinflammatory cytokines after the open operation. In contrast, IL-4 and IL-10 did not show significant changes in either group suggesting that Th2 cell response and anti-inflammatory activity remained normal. CONCLUSIONS: The present study shows that open, but not laparoscopic cholecystectomy is associated with a marked suppression of T lymphocytes functions as indicated by deregulation of both the Th1/Th2 and the pro-/anti-inflammatory cytokine balance. The results therefore suggest that downregulation of Th1 cell-mediated immune response and pro-inflammatory activity of T cells is a hallmark of open, but not laparoscopic surgery.

[Effect of interferon-alpha on the platelet aggregation and cyclic nucleotide system in chronic viral hepatitis]

[Article in Russian]

Iagoda AV, Koroi PV.

Department of Internal Disorders, State Medical Academy, ul. Mira 310, Stavropol, 355017 Russia.

Platelet aggregation (PA) and the content of cyclic nucleotides (CN) was studied in a group of 44 patients with chronic viral hepatitis (CVH) and liver cirrhosis (LC) in comparison to 10 healthy volunteers. The analyses were performed before and 6 h after interferon-alpha (IFN-alpha) administration. The CN content was increased in CVH cases and was maximum in LC patients, while the platelet aggregation was reduced in CVH patients and was minimum in the LC group. The CN level increased and the functional activity of platelets decreased, depending on the degree of disorder. After the first introduction of IFN-alpha, the CN content in thrombocytes decreased in LC and low-PA CVH patients, but increased in high-PA CVH cases. IFN-alpha produced a normalizing effect on the platelet functioning in the patients with CVH and LC.

Sudden, and premature hair loss and baldness is a problem in many ways. Baldness is indeed becoming an increasing concern in the current aging society.
It changes personal appearance and identity in social context. Saw palmetto berry extract is a widely known herbfor hair loss as well as BPH problems in Western world. Saw palmetto berry contains phytochemicals that inhibits 5-alpha-reductase that converts testosterone to DHT.

There are a number of traditional herbs that could stop hair loss and promotes hair growth. Numerous personal experiences and anecdotal cases testify that the herbal formula based on the Chinese herbs improves the situation of the age-related hair thinning and hair loss for a large fraction of people taking it regularly. It is unknown how Hair Million herbs stop hair loss, and promote hair growth due to the lack of scientific research and placebo controlled clinical trials.
