Do Dietary Supplements Affect Inflammation, Oxidative Stress, and Antioxidant Status in Adults with Hypothyroidism or Hashimoto's Disease?-A Systematic Review of Controlled Trials. Antioxidants (Basel) 2023; 12:1798. [PMID: 37891878 PMCID: PMC10604871 DOI: 10.3390/antiox12101798] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/30/2023] [Revised: 09/20/2023] [Accepted: 09/21/2023] [Indexed: 10/29/2023] Open
Abstract
This systematic review aims to summarise the results of controlled trials on dietary supplements (DS) usage and inflammation, oxidative stress, antioxidant status, and thyroid parameter improvement in hypothyroidism (HT)/Hashimoto's thyroiditis (AIT) patients. The study protocol was registered with PROSPERO (no. CRD42022365149). A comprehensive search of the PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases resulted in the identification of nineteen randomised controlled trials and three non-randomised studies for the review; three studies examined the effect of supplementation with vitamin D, twelve studies-with selenium, and seven studies-with other DS. Based on very limited evidence, the lack of influence of vitamin D supplementation on inflammatory parameters was found, while no studies have examined oxidative stress and antioxidant status parameters, and only one provided results for a single thyroid parameter after an intervention. Some evidence was found proving that selenium supplementation may decrease inflammation and improve thyroid parameters, but reaching a conclusion about its influence on oxidative stress and antioxidant status is not possible because of the insufficient number of studies. Additionally, due to examining other DS (e.g., multicomponent, Nigella sativa, and genistein) only in single studies, conclusions cannot be drawn. Further long-term, high-quality randomised controlled trials are necessary to better understand the influence of DS on inflammation, oxidative stress, and antioxidant status, as well as their potential to improve thyroid gland function in HT/AIT patients.

Hum Immunol 2023; 84:235-240. [PMID: 36635158 DOI: 10.1016/j.humimm.2023.01.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2022] [Revised: 12/27/2022] [Accepted: 01/05/2023] [Indexed: 01/12/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The production of interleukin (IL)-29 andthe genes related to IL-29 signaling pathway (STAT1, NF-κB, and NFATc1), and T helper (Th) 1 cells (T-bet, IFN-γ, TNF-α, and IL-2) were evaluated in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Correlations between IL-29 and diabetes parameters, and between gene expression in IL-29 pathway and Th1 cells were also examined. MATERIALS AND METHODS 41 newly diagnosed patients with T2DM and 41 healthy controls were recruited. CD4+ T cells were purifed and the production of IL-29 in the supernatant of anti- CD3 and anti- CD28 activated Th cells was detected using ELISA. The expression of IL-29- and Th1- related genes was determined with real-time PCR. RESULTS The secretion of IL-29 and the expression levels of NF-κB, NFATc1, IFN-γ, and TNF-α in Th cells were seen to be increased in diabetes persons compared to controls. Positive connections between IL-29 with hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) and fasting plasma glucose (FPG) were found in diabetes persons. IL-29 was positively correlated with NFATc1 and TNF-α. NFATc1 was positively related to TNF-α. CONCLUSION Abnormal expression levels of IL-29- and Th1- related genes are linked with T2DM pathogenesis. IL-29 may amplify the expression of Th1-specific genes especially TNF-α by upregulating NFATc1 expression.

[PMID: 34799942 PMCID: PMC8761401 DOI: 10.1002/jcla.24101] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/20/2021] [Revised: 10/23/2021] [Accepted: 10/25/2021] [Indexed: 01/09/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Autoimmune thyroid disease (AITD) mainly includes Graves’ disease (GD) and Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT), which is caused by individual genetics, autoimmune dysfunction, and a variety of external environmental factors. Interleukin (IL)‐38 is involved in a wide range of autoimmune diseases, but little is known about IL‐38 expression in AITD. Methods Fifty patients with GD, 50 with HT, and 50 healthy controls (HC) were enrolled in this study. Basic information of the participants was obtained through a physical examination. Immunological data were obtained by an automatic chemiluminescence immunoanalyzer. C‐reactive protein (CRP) concentrations and the white blood cell count were measured. Serum IL‐38 levels were determined by an enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay. Results Serum IL‐38 levels were significantly lower in the GD and HT groups than in the HC group (both p < 0.01). Serum CRP concentrations were significantly lower in the HT group than in the HC group (p < 0.05). Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed that the area under the curve was 0.7736 (p < 0.01) for IL‐38 and 0.7972 (p < 0.01) for IL‐38 combined with CRP in the GD group. In the HT group, the area under the curve was 0.7276 (p < 0.01) for IL‐38 and 0.7300 for IL‐38 combined with CRP (p < 0.01). Conclusions The results suggest that serum IL‐38 level is a potential new diagnostic biomarker in patients with GD and HT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Adenosine deaminase (ADA) is essential for the differentiation and maturation of lymphocytes, while lymphocytes infiltration in thyroid tissue is a vital pathological feature of Graves' disease (GD). The aim of the present study was to compare the concentration of ADA between healthy controls (HC) and patients with GD, and evaluate the association between ADA and GD. METHODS A total of 112 GD patients and 77 matched HC were enrolled in this study. Each participant was examined for thyroid hormones and autoantibodies, ADA concentration, and thyroid ultrasonography. RESULTS Serum ADA levels in GD patients were significantly higher than that in HC subgroup (P < 0.001). In GD patients, serum ADA levels were positively associated with serum-free triiodothyronine (FT3), free thyroxine (FT4), thyroid peroxidase antibody (TPOAb), thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor antibody (TRAb) levels, and total thyroid gland volume (thyroid VolT) and negatively associated with serum thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor (TSH) levels (all P < 0.05). There were no similar correlations in the HC subgroup. Multiple linear regression analysis suggested that serum TSH, FT3, and ADA levels played an important role in serum TRAb levels. CONCLUSIONS Our results demonstrated that serum ADA levels were closely associated with GD.
