By analyzing recent studies on the spontaneous activity of dorsal horn neurons, we aim to shed light on its significance in sensory processing.

The broad-spectrum anion transport inhibitor 4,4'-diisothiocyanatostilbene-2,2'-disulfonate (DIDS), CftrdF508 (CF) mice, and the slc26a3 inhibitor SLC26A3-IN-2 were used to inhibit anion transport.

However, when added simultaneously, CCh and PGE<sub>2</sub> stimulated de novo mucus secretion in the CF colon via DIDS-sensitive pathways. A similar response was observed in CF ileum that responded to CCh and PGE<sub>2</sub> with DIDS-sensitive de novo mucus secretion. In conclusion, this study suggests that slc26a3 regulates colonic mucus expansion, while Cftr regulates CCh-induced de novo mucus secretion from ileal and distal colon crypts.

Nevertheless, in this article, I argue that most of these approaches are inspired by a local isolationist view on ai-systems, here exemplified by the principlist approach. Despite positive contributions to laying out the ethical landscape of ai-systems in healthcare and medicine, such ethics approaches are too focused on a specific local healthcare and medical setting, be it a particular care relationship, a particular care organisation, or a particular society or region. By doing so, they lose sight of the global impacts ai-systems have, especially environmental impacts and related social impacts, such as increased health risks. To meet this gap, this article presents a global approach to the ethics of ai-systems in healthcare and medicine which consists of five levels of ethical impacts and analysis: individual-relational, organisational, societal, global, and historical. As such, this global approach incorporates the local isolationist view by integrating it in a wider landscape of ethical consideration so to ensure ai-systems meet the needs of everyone everywhere.</p>","PeriodicalId":19954,"journal":{"name":"Pflugers Archiv : European journal of physiology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2024-07-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141538355","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The COPD rats were divided into four groups: COPD group, Melatonin-treated group, MSC-treated group, and combined treated group (Melatonin-MSCs). We found that COPD was accompanied by deterioration of pulmonary function tests in response to expiratory parameter affection more than inspiratory ones. This was associated with increased Hypoxia inducible factor-1α expression and vascular endothelial growth factor level. Consequently, there was increased CD31 expression indicating increased angiogenesis with massive enlargement of airspaces and thinning of alveolar septa with decreased mean radial alveolar count, in addition to, inflammatory cell infiltration and disruption of the bronchiolar epithelial wall with loss of cilia and blood vessel wall thickening.

These metabolic changes cause an abnormality in cardiac Ca<sup>2+</sup> regulation that can lead to cardiomyopathies. In this study, we explored how the reactive α-dicarbonyl methylglyoxal (MGO) affects Ca<sup>2+</sup> regulation in mouse ventricular myocytes. Analysis of intracellular Ca<sup>2+</sup> dynamics revealed that MGO (200 μM) increases action potential (AP)-induced Ca<sup>2+</sup> transients and sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca<sup>2+</sup> load, with a limited effect on L-type Ca<sup>2+</sup> channel-mediated Ca<sup>2+</sup> transients and SERCA-mediated Ca<sup>2+</sup> uptake. At the same time, MGO significantly slowed down cytosolic Ca<sup>2+</sup> extrusion by Na<sup>+</sup>/Ca<sup>2+</sup> exchanger (NCX). MGO also increased the frequency of Ca<sup>2+</sup> waves during rest and these Ca<sup>2+</sup> release events were abolished by an external solution with zero [Na<sup>+</sup>] and [Ca<sup>2+</sup>]. Adrenergic receptor activation with isoproterenol (10 nM) increased Ca<sup>2+</sup> transients and SR Ca<sup>2+</sup> load, but it also triggered spontaneous Ca<sup>2+</sup> waves in 27% of studied cells. Pretreatment of myocytes with MGO increased the fraction of cells with Ca<sup>2+</sup> waves during adrenergic receptor stimulation by 163%. Measurements of intracellular [Na<sup>+</sup>] revealed that MGO increases cytosolic [Na<sup>+</sup>] by 57% from the maximal effect produced by the Na<sup>+</sup>-K<sup>+</sup> ATPase inhibitor ouabain (20 μM). This increase in cytosolic [Na<sup>+</sup>] was a result of activation of a tetrodotoxin-sensitive Na<sup>+</sup> influx, but not an inhibition of Na<sup>+</sup>-K<sup>+</sup> ATPase. An increase in cytosolic [Na<sup>+</sup>] after treating cells with ouabain produced similar effects on Ca<sup>2+</sup> regulation as MGO. These results suggest that protein carbonylation can affect cardiac Ca<sup>2+</sup> regulation by increasing cytosolic [Na<sup>+</sup>] via a tetrodotoxin-sensitive pathway.

Moreover, we analyzed the relationship of SOST with n-oxPTH and all forms of oxPTH in 516 stable kidney transplant recipients using an assay system that can distinguish in clinical samples between n-oxPTH and the sum of all oxidized PTH forms (Met8(ox)-PTH, Met18(ox)-PTH, and Met8, Met18(di-ox)-PTH). We found that both n-oxPTH and Met18(ox)-PTH at doses of 1, 3, 20, and 30 nmol/L significantly inhibit SOST gene expression in vitro, whereas Met8(ox)-PTH and Met8, Met18(di-ox)-PTH only have a weak inhibitory effect on SOST gene expression. In the clinical cohort, multivariate linear regression showed that only n-oxPTH, but not intact PTH (iPTH) nor oxPTH, is independently associated with circulating SOST after adjusting for known confounding factors. In conclusion, only bioactive PTH forms such as n-oxPTH and Met18(ox)-PTH, inhibit SOST synthesis.</p>","PeriodicalId":19954,"journal":{"name":"Pflugers Archiv : European journal of physiology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2024-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11139748/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139932380","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
