This disease is strongly associated with vascular complications, even when the hyperglycemia is kept under control. The main complications of DM are stroke, myocardial infarction, and peripheral artery disease, and they often increase the risk of developing atherosclerosis, inflammatory angiopathy, and thrombosis. Angiopathy is commonly initiated by microvascular inflammation characterized by neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) and metabolic abnormalities, and is controlled by (epi)-genetic events and immune / antigen-presenting cells. NETs play an important role in blood coagulation, activation of the innate and adaptive immune system, as well as vascular integrity and endothelial dysfunction. The aim of the review is to summarize the current knowledge about the role of NETs in the pathogenesis of vascular complications in DM.","PeriodicalId":94322,"journal":{"name":"Integrative molecular medicine","volume":"61 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75946136","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It imposes significant socio-economic and healthcare burden to both patients and healthcare systems. Although the most common cause of HF is ischemic heart diseases, other less common causes such as hyperthyroidism (thyrotoxicosis) should also be considered during diagnosis to improve overall clinical management of HF. Hyperthyroidism is a potentially reversible and curable cause of thyrotoxic HF (THF), which should be excluded in every new patient with HF especially in the absence of coronary artery disease and other structural heart diseases. However, the etiology of thyrotoxic HF remains partially understood – is it the consequence of hemodynamic insult, direct toxic effect or both? Its epidemiology is also difficult to assess because hypertensive, ischemic and other structural heart diseases have not been thoroughly excluded. The present review seeks to aggregate current published evidence on THF to provide a comprehensive understanding of its definition, prognosis, pathogenesis, manifestation, diagnosis and clinical management.","PeriodicalId":94322,"journal":{"name":"Integrative molecular medicine","volume":"65 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73248992","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hara, Chisato Kanai, Masashi Sato, A. Hara","doi":"10.15761/IMM.1000333","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.15761/IMM.1000333","url":null,"abstract":"Medical treatment using high-voltage electric potential (HELP) devices to generate an electric field (EF) is an alternative therapy commonly used in Japan. However, the mechanisms underlying potential health benefits of this therapy are still unclear. Therefore, we investigated the effect of HELP exposure (9 kV/electrode+9 kV/ electrode, 30 min) on several cytokines and hormones using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays in plasma samples obtained from healthy human subjects before and after a single treatment session. Immunoreactive interleukin (IL)-1β and IL-6 levels were significantly downregulated following HELP exposure. Under these treatment conditions, HELP exposure did not exert on immunoreactive IL-10, IL-18, transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-β1), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) adrenaline, serotonin, histamine, neuropeptide Y, somatostatin, insulin, or dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS) levels. The activation of transient receptor potential melastatin 8 (TRPM8) induces the suppression of the levels of inflammatory markers. Therefore, we further examined the in silico docking simulation of lysoPC-22:4, lysoPE-20:4, and lysoPE-22:6 with TRPM8 using a homology model. The binding energies were -10.8, -10.4, and -11.4 kcal/mol for lysoPC-22:4, lysoPE-20:4, and lysoPE-22:6, respectively. Our findings provide new insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying pain control and sleep quality alleviation following EF therapy.

Here we discuss how the chronic complex stress (CCS), when combined with an atherogenic diet (AD), leads to the development of atherosclerosis in mice. The CCS mouse model consisted of physical and psychosocial stressors of different types and intensities presented in a random order. Eighty-seven mice were divided into a standard chow diet (n=44) and AD (n=43) groups and bred for 4 months. Both groups were subdivided into groups without and with CCS treatment. The CCS was performed during the last month of the study. Ultrasound bio microscopy, histopathological and fluorescence immunohistochemical examinations, ELISA, PCR, and flow cytometry were used. We showed that CCS, when combined with atherogenic diet, resulted in accelerated process of the atherosclerosis, as measured by the maximum intima media thickness and hypoechoic plaque formation in the ultrasound bio microscopy, mean aortic well area in the hematoxylin and eosin staining, max Oil-Red-O content in the Oil Red O staining, and the aortic triglyceride level. These changes were accompanied by endothelial dysfunction and excessive inflammation based on down-regulation of aortic Nos3 mRNA expression, up-regulation of aortic syndecan-1 (Sdc1) and thrombomodulin (Thbd) mRNA expressions, and an increased percentage of CD45-positive cells in the aorta. Stressed mice had upregulation of aortic tumor necrosis factor-alpha (Tnf-α) gene expression, co-up-regulation of aortic nuclear receptor subfamily 3, group C, member 1 (Nr3c1) and Nfkb1 mRNA expressions, and hyperactivity of adrenal gland function based on increased phenyl ethanolamine-N-methyltransferase (PNMT) and NR3C1-positive cells, up-regulation of Nr3c1 and Pnmt mRNA expressions in the adrenal gland. These observations may demonstrate that CCS, via hyperactivity of the adrenal gland and aortic proinflammatory cytokine (Tnf-α)-related co-up-regulation of aortic Nr3c1 and Nfkb1 gene expressions, accelerated the atherosclerosis development in mice, especially when combined with atherogenic diet.","PeriodicalId":94322,"journal":{"name":"Integrative molecular medicine","volume":"5 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79430511","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
