Abstract
Transdermal nicotine patches (TNPs), administering nicotine into the bloodstream through skin, have been widely used as nicotine replacement therapy, and exposure to nicotine can be detected by measurement of plasma cotinine concentration. In animal studies, nicotine treatment could increase the number of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs), but the effect of TNPs on circulating EPCs and their activity in humans remained unclear. This study aimed to explore the influence of TNPs on circulating EPCs with surface markers of CD34, CD133, and/or KDR, and colony-forming function plus migration activity of early EPCs derived from cultured peripheral blood mononuclear cells before and after TNP treatments in young healthy nonsmokers. In parallel, pulse wave analysis (PWA) was applied to evaluate the vascular effect of TNP treatments. Twenty-one participants (25.8 ± 3.6 years old, 10 males) used TNP (nicotine: 4.2 mg/day) for 7 consecutive days. During the treatment, the CD34+ EPCs progressively increased in number. In addition, the number of EPCs positive for CD34/KDR, CD133, and CD34/CD133 were also increased on day 7 of the treatment. Furthermore, the early EPC colony-forming function and migration activity were increased with the plasma cotinine level positively correlating with change in colony-forming unit number. PWA analyses on day 7, compared with pretreatment, did not show significant change except diastolic pressure time index, which was prolonged and implied potential vascular benefit. In conclusion, 7-day TNP treatments could be a practical strategy to enhance angiogenesis of circulating EPCs to alleviate tissue ischemia without any hemodynamic concern.

[PMID: 36913175 DOI: 10.1007/s43440-023-00473-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/20/2022] [Revised: 02/21/2023] [Accepted: 03/02/2023] [Indexed: 03/14/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Poor metabolizer (PM) status of CYP2C19 can be a predisposing factor for developing gastric cancer in H. pylori-infected patients. It is unclear whether PM status of CYP2C19 can also be a potential factor for H.pylori infection in healthy people. METHODS We used high-throughput sequencing to detect single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) at just three loci, rs4244285 (CYP2C19*2), rs4986893 (CYP2C19*3) and rs12248560 (CYP2C19*17), to identify the exact CYP2C19 alleles corresponding to the mutated sites. We determined CYP2C19 genotypes of 1050 subjects from 5 cities of Ningxia from September 2019 to September 2020 and evaluated the potential correlation between H.pylori and CYP2C19 gene polymorphisms. Clinical data were analyzed using χ2 tests. RESULTS The frequency of CYP2C19*17 in Hui (3.7%) was higher as compared to Han (1.4%) in Ningxia (p = 0.001). The frequency of CYP2C19*1/*17 of Hui (4.7%) was higher as compared to Han (1.6%) in Ningxia (p = 0.004). The frequency of CYP2C19*3/*17 of Hui (1%) was higher as compared to Han (0%) in Ningxia (p = 0.023). The frequencies of alleles (p = 0.142) and genotypes (p = 0.928) were not found to be significantly different among the different BMI groups. The frequencies of four alleles between H. pylori positive and negative groups were not found to be statistically different (p = 0.794). The frequencies of the different genotypes between H. pylori positive and negative groups were not statistically different (p = 0.974), and no statistical difference was observed between the different metabolic phenotypes (p = 0.494). CONCLUSION There were regional differences observed in CYP2C19*17 distribution in Ningxia. The frequency of CYP2C19*17 in Hui was higher than in Han of Ningxia. No significant relationship was found between CYP2C19 gene polymorphism and susceptibility to H. pylori infection.

Pal SC, Eslam M, Mendez-Sanchez N. Detangling the interrelations between MAFLD, insulin resistance, and key hormones. Hormones (Athens) 2022; 21:573-589. [PMID: 35921046 DOI: 10.1007/s42000-022-00391-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/04/2022] [Accepted: 07/19/2022] [Indexed: 11/04/2022]
Abstract
Metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) has increasingly become a significant and highly prevalent cause of chronic liver disease, displaying a wide array of risk factors and pathophysiologic mechanisms of which only a few have so far been clearly elucidated. A bidirectional interaction between hormonal discrepancies and metabolic-related disorders, including obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) has been described. Since the change in nomenclature from non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) to MAFLD is based on the clear impact of metabolic elements on the disease, the reciprocal interactions of hormones such as insulin, adipokines (leptin and adiponectin), and estrogens have strongly pointed to the intrinsic links that lead to the heterogeneous epidemiology, clinical presentations, and risk factors involved in MAFLD in different populations. The objective of this work is twofold. Firstly, there is a brief discussion regarding the change in nomenclature as well as epidemiology, risk factors, and pathophysiologic mechanisms other than hormonal effects, which include nutrition and the gut microbiome, as well as genetic and epigenetic influences. Secondly, we review the basis of the most important hormonal factors involved in the development and progression of MAFLD that act both independently and in an interrelated manner.
