The purpose of this clinical trial is to administer a sodium pyruvate nasal spray that eliminates nasal oxidative stresses, caused by oxygen radicals, and demonstrate the efficacy of sodium pyruvate to reduce coughing and increase lung functions in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. This will be a 21-day double-blinded randomized placebo-controlled trial designed to determine if patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis treated with 20mM sodium pyruvate in 0.9% sodium chloride nasal spray solution will have reduced chronic coughing, as well as increased lung function (FEV1, FVC endpoints of 12% or more within the first week) and improved FEV1/FVC ratios.

CEBPD REGULATES OXIDATIVE STRESS AND INFLAMMATORY RESPONSES IN HYPERTENSIVE CARDIAC REMODELING

Article

作者: Zhang, Rongyi ; Hu, Jilin ; Deng, Jianping ; Zhao, Jinghong

ABSTRACTHypertension seems to inevitably cause cardiac remodeling, increasing the mortality of patients. This study aimed to explore the molecular mechanism of CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein delta (CEBPD)–mediated oxidative stress and inflammation in hypertensive cardiac remodeling. The hypertensive murine model was established through angiotensin-II injection, and hypertensive mice underwent overexpressed CEBPD vector injection, cardiac function evaluation, and observation of histological changes. The cell model was established by angiotensin-II treatment and transfected with overexpressed CEBPD vector. Cell viability and surface area and oxidative stress (reactive oxygen species/superoxide dismutase/lactate dehydrogenase/malondialdehyde) were assessed, and inflammatory factors (TNF-α/IL-1β/IL-6/IL-10) were determined bothin vivoandin vitro. The levels of CEBPD, miR-96-5p, inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor 1 (IP3R), natriuretic peptide B, and natriuretic peptide A, collagen I, and collagen III in tissues and cells were determined. The binding relationships of CEBPD/miR-96-5p/IP3R 3′ untranslated region were validated. CEBPD was reduced in cardiac tissue of hypertensive mice, and CEBPD upregulation improved cardiac function and attenuated fibrosis and hypertrophy, along with reductions of reactive oxygen species/lactate dehydrogenase/malondialdehyde/TNF-α/IL-1β/IL-6 and increases in superoxide dismutase/IL-10. CEBPD enriched on the miR-96-5p promoter to promote miR-96-5p expression, whereas CEBPD and miR-96-5p negatively regulated IP3R. miR-96-5p silencing/IP3R overexpression reversed the alleviative role of CEBPD overexpression in hypertensive mice. In summary, CEBPD promoted miR-96-5p to negatively regulate IP3R expression to inhibit oxidative stress and inflammation, thereby alleviating hypertensive cardiac remodeling.

Perioperative neurocognitive disorders are common in elderly patients who have undergone surgical procedures. Neuroinflammation induced by microglial activation is a hallmark of these neurological disorders. Acetate can suppress inflammation in the context of inflammatory diseases. We employed an exploratory laparotomy model with isoflurane anesthesia to study the effects of acetate on perioperative neurocognitive disorders in aged mice. Neurocognitive function was assessed with open-field tests and Morris water maze tests 3 or 7 days post-surgery. Acetate ameliorated the surgery-induced cognitive deficits of aged mice and inhibited the activation of IBA-1, a marker of microglial activity. Acetate also reduced expression of inflammatory proteins (tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-1β and interleukin-6), oxidative stress factors (NADPH oxidase 2, inducible nitric oxide synthase and reactive oxygen species), and signaling molecules (nuclear factor kappa B and mitogen-activated protein kinase) in the hippocampus. BV2 microglial cells were used to verify the anti-inflammatory effects of acetate in vitro. Acetate suppressed inflammation in lipopolysaccharide-treated BV2 microglial cells, but not when GPR43 was silenced. These results suggest that acetate may bind to GPR43, thereby inhibiting microglial activity, suppressing neuroinflammation, and preventing memory deficits. This makes acetate is a promising therapeutic for surgery-induced neurocognitive disorders and neuroinflammation.

Large artery stiffness is associated with gamma-glutamyltransferase in young, healthy adults: The African-PREDICT study

Article

作者: Van Rooyen, Johannes M ; Schutte, Aletta E ; Fourie, Carla M T ; Moss, Sarah J ; Maritz, Melissa

Increased arterial stiffness is linked to cardiovascular disease development, particularly in black populations. Since detrimental health behaviors in young adults may affect arterial stiffness, we determined whether arterial stiffness associates with specific health behaviors, and whether it is more pronounced in young healthy black compared to white adults. We included 373 participants (49% black, 42% men) aged 20-30 years. Mean arterial pressure was higher for blacks than whites (P < .001), but carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity was similar (6.37 vs. 6.36 m/s; P = .89) after adjustment for mean arterial pressure. The black group had higher gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT) (P < .001), cotinine, reactive oxygen species, interleukin-6, and monocyte-chemoattractant protein-1 (all P ≤ .017). Pulse wave velocity related positively and independently to GGT in both groups before and after multiple adjustments (both β = 0.15; P ≤ .049). Blacks had an unfavorable vascular profile and higher GGT, possibly indicating a higher vulnerability to cardiovascular disease development, including changes in arterial stiffness. However, this observation needs confirmation.
