Abstract
Carvedilol is a widely used beta-adrenoreceptor antagonist for multiple cardiovascular indications; however, it may induce cholestasis in patients, but the mechanism for this effect is unclear. Carvedilol also prevents the development of various forms of experimental liver injury, but its effect on nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is largely unknown. In this study, we determined the effect of carvedilol (10 mg/kg/day p.o.) on bile formation and bile acid (BA) turnover in male C57BL/6 mice consuming either a chow diet or a western-type NASH-inducing diet. BAs were profiled by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry and BA-related enzymes, transporters, and regulators were evaluated by western blot analysis and qRT-PCR. In chow diet-fed mice, carvedilol increased plasma concentrations of BAs resulting from reduced BA uptake to hepatocytes via Ntcp transporter downregulation. Inhibition of the β-adrenoreceptor-cAMP-Epac1-Ntcp pathway by carvedilol may be the post-transcriptional mechanism underlying this effect. In contrast, carvedilol did not worsen the deterioration of BA homeostasis accompanying NASH; however, it shifted the spectra of BAs toward more hydrophilic and less toxic α-muricholic and hyocholic acids. This positive effect of carvedilol was associated with a significant attenuation of liver steatosis, inflammation, and fibrosis in NASH mice. In conclusion, our results indicate that carvedilol may increase BAs in plasma by modifying their liver transport. In addition, carvedilol provided significant hepatoprotection in a NASH murine model without worsening BA accumulation. These data suggest beneficial effects of carvedilol in patients at high risk for developing NASH.

Background
Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) became standard of care for selected patients with severe aortic stenosis. Computed tomography (CT) and 2D/3D echocardiography (ECHO) are used for aortic annulus sizing. As a result of increasing number of TAVR more imaging specialists participate in pre-procedural TAVR assessment.
Purpose
The aim of this study was to compare accuracy of ECHO aortic annulus measurements vs CT based parameters for Edward Sapiens TAVR in such environment.
Methods
Data of 145 consecutive patients with TAVR (Sapiens XT or Sapiens 3S) were analysed retrospectively. One radiologist and six echocardiographers trained in aortic annulus size measurements participated in pre-procedural aortic anulus assessment. Aortic annulus area and area derived diameter were measured/calculated in each patient from 3D ECHO data set acquired from mid-oesophageal view and from CT data set, using multiplanar reconstruction. 2D ECHO aortic annulus size was measured from mid-oesophageal 120º view in early systole.
Results
139 (96%) patients had favourable TAVR result (max. mild aortic regurgitation, single valve implanted). 3D ECHO aortic anulus area and area derived diameter were smaller than corresponding CT parameters (464 ± 99 vs 479 ± 88 mm2, p < 0.001 and 24.2 ± 2.7 mm vs 25.0 ± 5.5, p = 0.002, respectively) and differed between echocardiographers (p < 0.001). 2D ECHO anulus measurement were smaller in comparison to both CT and 3D ECHO area derived diameter (22.6 ± 2.9 vs 25.0 ± 5.5mm, p = 0,013 and 22.6 ± 2.9 vs 24.2± 2.7mm, p < 0.001, respectively). In implanted valves with favourable procedure result, concordance of CT and 3D ECHO aortic annulus area with manufacturer recommended ranges was 79.4% vs 61% (p= 0.001) and for area derived diameter 80.1% vs 61.7% (p = 0.001). Using 3D ECHO measurements 33% of the patients would have hypothetically received inappropriate valve size.
Conclusion
3D ECHO aortic annulus measurements are generally smaller then CT ones. If 3D ECHO based parameters only were used for TAVR (Edward Sapiens) size selection, it would have resulted in underestimation of the valve size in up to 1/3 of the patients. CT aortic annulus size assessment should be preferred method over 3D ECHO in daily practice. Abstract Figure 1 Abstract Table 1

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Drug-eluting stents (DESs) are the recommended choice of stents for primary PCI.
Purpose/Methods
The study aimed to determine why interventional cardiologists used non-DESs and how they had influenced the patient prognosis. The efficacy and safety outcomes of the different stents were also compared in treated with either prasugrel or ticagrelor.
Results
Of the PRAGUE 18 study patients, 749 (67.4%) were treated with DESs, 296 (26.6%) with BMS, and 66 (5.9%) with BVS. Cardiogenic shock at presentation and the left main disease, especially as culprit lesion, and right coronary artery stenosis were the reasons for BMS selection.
The incidence of the primary net-clinical EP (CV death, nonfatal MI, stroke, major bleeding, or revascularization) at 7 days was 2.6% vs. 6.5%, and 3.0% in the DESs, BMSs, and BVSs, respectively (HR 2.7; 95% CI 1.419–5.15, P=0.002 for BMS vs. DES and 1.25 (0.29–5.39) for BVS vs. DES, P=0.76). Patients with BMSs were at higher risk of death at 30 days (HR 2.20; 95% CI 1.01–4.76; for BMS vs. DES, P=0.045), and at one year (HR 2.1; 95% CI 1.19–3.69; P=0.01); they also had higher composite of cardiac death, re-MI and stroke (HR 1.66; 95% CI 1.0–2.74; P=0.047) at one year. BMSs were associated with significantly higher rate of primary EPs either treated with prasugrel or ticagrelor.
Conclusion
Patients with the highest risk profile were preferably treated with BMS the contrary to BVS. BMSs were associated with a significantly higher rate of cardiovascular events either treated with prasugrel or ticagrelor.

Abstract
The constitutive androstane receptor (CAR) is the essential regulator of genes involved both in xenobiotic and endobiotic metabolism. Diazepam has been shown as a potent stimulator of CAR nuclear translocation and is assumed as an indirect CAR activator not interacting with the CAR cavity. In this study, we sought to determine if diazepam is a ligand directly interacting with the CAR ligand binding domain (LBD) and if it regulates its target genes in a therapeutically relevant concentration. We used different CAR constructs in translocation and luciferase reporter assays, recombinant CAR-LBD in a TR-FRET assay, and target genes induction studied in primary human hepatocytes (PHHs), HepaRG cells, and in CAR humanized mice. We also used in silico docking and CAR-LBD mutants to characterize the interaction of diazepam and its metabolites with the CAR cavity. Diazepam and its metabolites such as nordazepam, temazepam, and oxazepam are activators of CAR+Ala in translocation and two-hybrid assays and fit the CAR cavity in docking experiments. In gene reporter assays with CAR3 and in the TR-FRET assay, only diazepam significantly interacts with CAR-LBD. Diazepam also promotes up-regulation of CYP2B6 in PHHs and in HepaRG cells. However, in humanized CAR mice, diazepam significantly induces neither CYP2B6 nor Cyp2b10 genes nor does it regulate critical genes involved in glucose and lipids metabolism and liver proliferation. Thus, we demonstrate that diazepam interacts with human CAR-LBD as a weak ligand, but it does not significantly affect expression of tested CAR target genes in CAR humanized mice.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Time delay is an important prognostic factor and indicator of quality of care for patients with AMI indicated for primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
Purpose
Assessment of total ischaemia time and its relationship to catheterization findings and the incidence of ischaemic events within 1 year in patients treated with primary PCI.
Method
The analysis included 1230 patients with AIM and primary PCI randomized in the Prague-18 study (prasugrel vs. ticagrelor). We evaluated the total ischaemia time and two the intermediate intervals: A - from the symptom onset to the arrival to the hospital and B - from the entry the hospital to balloon time. We assessed the time delay in relation to patient characteristics, PCI results and ischaemic endpoints (death, reIM, stroke) within 30 days and 1 year.
Results
Median total ischaemia time was 3.2 hours. Its prolongation resulted in more frequent incidence of TIMI flow <2 before PCI (p=0.029), TIMI flow <3 after PCI (p=0.004) and suboptimal PCI (p=0.018). The interval A was significantly prolonged in women (p=0.001) and obese patients with BMI ≥30 kg / m2 (p=0.001). The interval B <30 min was achieved in 70% of patients, only 5.3% had interval >90 min. In 717 (61,6%) patients with increased risk (at least 1 criterion: age >70 years, STEMI anterior wall or LBBB, Killip II-IV, history of MI and CABG, SBP <100 mmHG and HR >100 / min), the prolongation of total ischaemia time (≤2 vs. 2.1–4 vs. 4.1–6 vs. >6 hours) resulted in a more frequent incidence of combined ischaemic endpoints within 1 year (p=0.034) and left ventricular systolic dysfunction (p=0.028).
Conclusion
The extension of total ischaemia time in patients treated with primary PCI resulted in a more frequent suboptimal result with TIMI flow <3. Female gender, older age and obesity in women were associated with an increase in total ischaemia time. In patients with increased risk, time delay resulted in a higher incidence of combined ischaemic endpoints within 1 year and left ventricular systolic dysfunction.

Abstract
Pregnane X receptor (PXR) is the major regulator of xenobiotic metabolism. PXR itself is controlled by various signaling molecules including glucocorticoids. Moreover, negative feed-back regulation has been proposed at the transcriptional level. We examined the involvement of the 3'-untranslated region (3'-UTR) of NR1I2 mRNA and microRNAs in PXR- and glucocorticoid receptor (GR)-mediated regulation of NR1I2 gene expression. PXR ligands were found to significantly downregulate NR1I2 mRNA expression in a set of 14 human hepatocyte cultures. Similarly, PXR was downregulated by PCN in the C57/BL6 mice liver. In mechanistic studies with the full-length 3'-UTR cloned into luciferase reporter or expression vectors, we showed that the 3'-UTR reduces PXR expression. From the miRNAs tested, miR-18a-5p inhibited both NR1I2 expression and CYP3A4 gene induction. Importantly, we observed significant upregulation of miR-18a-5p expression 6 h after treatment with the PXR ligand rifampicin, which indicates a putative mechanism underlying NR1I2 negative feed-back regulation in hepatic cells. Additionally, glucocorticoids upregulated NR1I2 expression not only through the promoter region but also via 3'-UTR regulation, which likely involves downregulation of miR-18a-5p. We conclude that miR-18a-5p is involved in the down-regulation of NR1I2 expression by its ligands and in the upregulation of NR1I2 mRNA expression by glucocorticoids in hepatic cells.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Antithrombotic therapy is effective in preventing ischemic and thromboembolic events, however it simultaneously increases the risk of bleeding. The efforts thus focus on balancing the intensity of combined antiplatelet and anticoagulant therapy.
Purpose
The study aimed to compare efficacy and safety of single (aspirin/clopidogrel) or dual (aspirin plus clopidogrel) antiplatelet therapy in combination with an oral anticoagulant in non-selected patient population with atrial fibrillation (AFib) and an acute coronary syndrome (ACS).
Methods
The analysis used data from National Registry of Reimbursed Health Services (NRRHS), which contains data of the entirety of health care paid from the public health insurance (almost 100% of healthcare in the Czech Republic) combined with the database of death records. Occurrence of an ACS, stroke, and bleeding requiring hospitalization within one year was compared in patients discharged on dual and triple antithrombotic therapy. Dual antithrombotic therapy consists of aspirin/clopidogrel plus an oral anticoagulant. Triple antithrombotic therapy was defined as combination of aspirin, clopidogrel and an oral anticoagulant.
Results
Over a four-year period (2012–2016) 104 000 patients with an ACS were hospitalized in the Czech Republic. AFib (any types) was reported in 12.4% (N=12 891) of them (21.2% in patients 75+ years old). +AFib (vs. −AFib) patients were a higher risk population with respect to the comorbidity (diabetes, hypertension, renal disease, stroke, heart failure) (p<0.05 for all comorbidities). Oral anticoagulant therapy was indicated in 25.3% of them. PCI was performed in 57.7% (−AFib) and 43.4% (+AFib) patients, respectively. Hospital mortality was significantly higher in +AFib patients (8.6% and 5.6%, OR (95% CI): 1.585 (1.481; 1.696), p<0.001).
We identified 1017 patients discharged on dual and 967 patients on triple antithrombotic therapy. Risk of recurrent ACS within one year with dual therapy was comparable to that with triple therapy (OR (95% CI): 1.219 (0.766; 1.940), p=0.403). The same was also observed for the risk of stroke (1.273 (0.648; 2.501), p=0.483).
After six months, persistence on dual antithrombotic therapy (33.4% patients) was higher than on triple therapy (10.3%, p<0.001). Within the first three months, de-escalation from triple antithrombotic therapy to dual antithrombotic therapy (in 212 patients) was accompanied by a significant increase of bleeding requiring hospitalization (0% on dual vs. 3.3% on triple therapy, p=0.048).
Conclusion
Protective effect of dual antithrombotic therapy on the occurence of recurrent major adverse cardiovascular event is comparable to that of the triple antithrombotic therapy in non-selected patients with an acute coronary syndrome and atrial fibrillation. Moreover, long-term persistence on triple therapy is significantly lower due to bleeding risk.

Abstract
The constitutive androstane receptor(CAR) activation is connected with mitogenic effects leading to liver hyperplasia and tumorigenesis in rodents. CAR activators, including phenobarbital, are considered rodent non-genotoxic carcinogens. Recently, trans-3,4,5,4´-tetramethoxystilbene(TMS), a potential anticancer drug (DMU-212), have been shown to alleviate N-nitrosodiethylamine/phenobarbital-induced liver carcinogenesis. We studied whether TMS inhibits mouse Car to protect from the PB-induced tumorigenesis. Unexpectedly, we identified TMS as a murine CAR agonist in reporter gene experiments, in mouse hepatocytes, and in C57BL/6 mice in vivo. TMS up-regulated Car target genes Cyp2b10, Cyp2c29 and Cyp2c55 mRNAs, but down-regulated expression of genes involved in gluconeogenesis and lipogenesis. TMS did not change or down-regulate genes involved in liver proliferation or apoptosis such as Mki67, Foxm1, Myc, Mcl1, Pcna, Bcl2, or Mdm2, which were up-regulated by another Car ligand TCPOBOP. TMS did not increase liver weight and had no significant effect on Ki67 and Pcna labeling indices in mouse liver in vivo. In murine hepatic AML12 cells, we confirmed a Car-independent proapoptotic effect of TMS. We conclude that TMS is a Car ligand with limited effects on hepatocyte proliferation, likely due to promoting apoptosis in mouse hepatic cells, while controlling Car target genes involved in xenobiotic and endobiotic metabolism.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Early reperfusion of the infarct related artery is the only treatment improving prognosis of patients with initial cardiogenic shock (CGS) complicated acute myocardial infarction (AMI) (Killip class IV at admission).
Purpose
The analysis focused on subgroup of patients with initial CGS randomized into the multicenter PRAGUE-18 study (prasugrel vs. ticagrelor in primary PCI).
Methods
In the PRAGUE-18 study, patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) (n=1230) treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI) were immediately randomized to prasugrel or ticagrelor with intended treatment duration of 12 months. 53.6% (n=659) switched to clopidogrel after discharge. Major ischemic and bleeding events were followed throughout the entire study period. Beside standard laboratory tests, efficacy of ticagrelor and prasugrel was measured by flow cytometric VASP evaluation in patients selected for a laboratory sub-study (n=218). Acute heart failure (KILLIP >1) was present in 11.8%, and 46 patients (3.7%) randomized to the study were in CGS.
Results
Patients with CGS were older [66.7 (48,3; 83,3) years] than those without CGS (KILLIP <4), and had the highest prevalence of bundle brunch block on the initial ECG (RBBB in 6.5%, LBBB in 8.7%, p=0.003 for difference in bundle brunch blocks). Time delay to hospital admission [1,7 (0,4; 36,0) hs] was significantly shorter than in patients KILLIP <4 [2,8 (0,8; 28,3hs; p=0.003]. Significantly more CGS patients had history of previous MI (19.6% vs 7.9%, p=0.011) and bypass graft surgery (6.5% vs 1.5%, p=0.041). 67.4% of CGS patients had multivessel disease and in 17.4% of these patients primary PCI was evaluated as suboptimal result or procedural failure (compared to 4.3% in patients without shock, p<0.001).
No difference was observed in clinical (primary and secondary endpoints, p=0.564) or laboratory efficacy between prasugrel and ticagrelor treated patients with CGS (p=0.800 for VASP index difference between prasugrel and ticagrelor 20±4 hs after loading doses). We did not find any difference in initial platelet activation (VASP index before P2Y12 inhibitors administration) in patients without acute heart failure (KILLIP I) [83.2 (54.1–94.2) %] and with KILLIP > I [82.5 (65.7–96.9), p=0.999], and this was also confirmed for the difference between KILLIP I and KILLIP IV patients (p=0.416).
Conclusion
Results of the present analysis and defined predictors of mortality showed that prognosis of patients with initial cardiogenic complicated AMI treated with pPCI cannot be influenced by more potent platelet inhibition (than in AMI patients without CGS). Furthermore, the concluding evidence underscored adherence to the current guidelines' recommendation of the earliest possible reperfusion of infarct related artery as well as administration of prasugrel or ticagrelor.

Abstract
Abstract
Aims
The Acute Cardiac Care Association (ACCA)–European Association of Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (EAPCI) Registry on ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) of the EurObservational programme (EORP) of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) registry aimed to determine the current state of the use of reperfusion therapy in ESC member and ESC affiliated countries and the adherence to ESC STEMI guidelines in patients with STEMI.
Methods and results
Between 1 January 2015 and 31 March 2018, a total of 11 462 patients admitted with an initial diagnosis of STEMI according to the 2012 ESC STEMI guidelines were enrolled. Individual patient data were collected across 196 centres and 29 countries. Among the centres, there were 136 percutaneous coronary intervention centres and 91 with cardiac surgery on-site. The majority of centres (129/196) were part of a STEMI network. The main objective of this study was to describe the demographic, clinical, and angiographic characteristics of patients with STEMI. Other objectives include to assess management patterns and in particular the current use of reperfusion therapies and to evaluate how recommendations of most recent STEMI European guidelines regarding reperfusion therapies and adjunctive pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatments are adopted in clinical practice and how their application can impact on patients’ outcomes. Patients will be followed for 1 year after admission.
Conclusion
The ESC ACCA-EAPCI EORP ACS STEMI registry is an international registry of care and outcomes of patients hospitalized with STEMI. It will provide insights into the contemporary patient profile, management patterns, and 1-year outcome of patients with STEMI.

Abstract
ObjectiveSentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy has been increasingly used in the management of early-stage cervical cancer. It appears in guidelines as an alternative option to systematic pelvic lymphadenectomy. The evidence about safety is, however, based mostly on retrospective studies, in which SLN was combined with systematic lymphadenectomy.Materials and methodsSENTIX is a prospective multicenter trial aiming to prove that less-radical surgery with SLN is non-inferior to treatment with systematic pelvic lymphadenectomy. The primary end point is recurrence rate; the secondary end point is the prevalence of lower-leg lymphedema and symptomatic pelvic lymphocele. The reference recurrence rate was set up conservatively at 7% at 24 months after treatment. With a sample size of 300 patients treated per protocol, the trial is powered to detect a non-inferiority margin of 5% (90% power, p = 0.05) for recurrence rate, 30% reduction in the prevalence of symptomatic lymphocele or lower-leg lymphedema, with reference rates of 30% and 6% at 12 months (p = 0.025, Bonferroni correction). The patients eligible for SENTIX have stage IA1/LVSI+, IA2, IB1 (<2 cm for fertility sparing), with negative LN on pre-operative imaging. Intra-operatively, patients are excluded when there is a failure to detect SLN on both sides of the pelvis in cases of more advanced cancer (stage >IB1), or a positive intra-operative SLN assessment. The quality of SLN pathology evaluation will be assessed by central review. Three interim safety analyses are pre-planned when 30, 60, 150 patients complete 12 months' follow-up.ConclusionsThe first patient was enrolled into the study in June 2016 and, by June 2018, 340 patients had been enrolled. The first analysis of secondary outcomes should be available in 2019 and the oncological outcome of 300 patients at the end of 2021. The trial is registered as a CEEGOG trial (CEEGOG CX-01), ENGOT trial (ENGOT-Cx 2), and at the ClinicalTrials.gov database (NCT02494063).

Abstract
Resveratrol (RSV) is a stilbene phytochemical common in food and red wine. RSV inhibits cytochrome P450 CYP3A4 activity and interacts with the pregnane X receptor (PXR), the central regulator of drug/xenobiotic metabolizing enzyme expression. In this work, we comprehensively examined the effects of 13 stilbenes (trans- and cis-resveratrol, trans- and cis-piceatannol, oxyresveratrol, pterostilbene, pinostilbene, a,b-dihydroresveratrol, trans- and cis-trismethoxyresveratrol, trans-3,4,5,4'-tetramethoxystilbene, trans-2,4,3',5'-tetramethoxystilbene, trans-4-methoxystilbene), on CYP3A4 and CYP2B6 mRNA induction, and on CYP3A4/5, CYP2C8/9/19, CYP2D6, CYP2A6, CYP2E1, CYP1A2 and CYP2B6 cytochrome P450 enzyme activities. Expression experiments in five different primary human hepatocyte preparations, reporter gene assays, and ligand binding assays with pregnane X (PXR) and constitutive androstane (CAR) receptors were performed. Inhibition of cytochrome P450 enzymes was examined in human microsomes. We found that only polymethoxylated stilbenes are prone to significantly induce CYP2B6 or CYP3A4 in primary human hepatocytes via pregnane X receptor (PXR) interaction. Natural resveratrol derivatives such as trans- and cis-RSV, oxyresveratrol, pinostilbene and pterostilbene significantly inhibit CYP3A4/5 enzymatic activities; however, only trans-RSV significantly inhibits CYP3A4/5 activity (both testosterone 6β-hydroxylation and midazolam 1´-hydroxylation) in micromolar concentrations by a non-competitive mechanism, suggesting a potential risk of food-drug interactions with CYP3A4/5 substrates.

Abstract
The constitutive androstane receptor (CAR) is a nuclear receptor involved mainly in xenobiotic and endobiotic metabolism regulation. CAR is activated directly by its ligands via the ligand binding domain (LBD) or indirectly by inhibition of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) signaling. We found that leflunomide (LEF) and its main metabolite teriflunomide (TER), both used for autoimmune diseases treatment, induce the prototype CAR target gene CYP2B6 in primary human hepatocytes. As TER was discovered to be an EGF receptor antagonist, we sought to determine if TER is an indirect activator of CAR. In primary human hepatocytes and in differentiated HepaRG cells, we found that LEF and TER up-regulate CAR target genes CYP2B6 and CYP3A4 mRNAs and enzymatic activities. TER stimulated CAR+A mutant translocation into the nucleus but neither LEF nor TER activated the CAR LBD, CAR3 variant or pregnane X receptor (PXR) in gene reporter assays. Interestingly, TER significantly up-regulated CAR mRNA expression, a result which could be a consequence of both EGF receptor and ELK-1 transcription factor inhibition by TER or by TER-mediated activation of glucocorticoid receptor (GR), an upstream hormonal regulator of CAR. We can conclude that TER is a novel indirect CAR activator which through EGF inhibition and GR activation controls both detoxification and some intermediary metabolism genes.

Abstract
The endocannabinoid system is important for many physiologic and pathologic processes, but its role in the regulation of liver cytochromes P450 (P450s) remains unknown. We studied the influence of the endocannabinoid oleamide on rat and human liver P450s. Oleamide was administered intraperitoneally to rats at doses of 0.1, 1, and 10 mg/kg per day for 7 days. The content and activity of key P450s were evaluated in rat liver microsomes. Moreover, interactions with nuclear receptors regulating P450 genes and serum levels of their ligands (prolactin, corticosterone, and free triiodothyronine) were tested in in vitro P450 inhibition assays. Decreased protein levels and metabolic activities of CYP1A2, CYP2B, and CYP2C11, along with a drop in metabolic activity of CYP2D2, were observed in animals treated with oleamide (10 mg/kg per day). The activities of CYP2C6, CYP2A, and CYP3A and the levels of hormones were not altered. In vitro, oleamide exhibited a weak inhibition of rat CYP1A2, CYP2D2, and CYP2C6. The activities of rat CYP2A, CYP2B, CYP2C11, and CYP3A and human CYP1A2, CYP2B6, CYP2C9, and CYP3A4 were not altered. Oleamide did not interact with human pregnane X, constitutive androstane, or aryl hydrocarbon receptors in reporter gene experiments and did not regulate their target P450 genes in primary human hepatocytes. Our results indicate that oleamide caused the downregulation of some rat liver P450s, and hormones are not mediators of this effect. In vitro oleamide inhibits mainly rat CYP2C6 and is neither an agonist nor antagonist of major human nuclear receptors involved in the regulation of xenobiotic metabolism.

Abstract
The granitic Uhlirska headwater catchment with a size of 1.78km2 is located in the Jizera Mountains in the northern Czech Republic and received among the highest inputs of anthropogenic acid depositions in Europe. An analysis of sulphate (SO42-) distribution in deposition, soil water, stream water and groundwater compartments allowed to establish a SO42- mass-balance (deposition input minus surface water export) and helped to evaluate which changes occurred since the last evaluation of the catchment in 1997. The determined SO42- concentrations decreased in the following order: wetland groundwater>groundwater from 20m below ground level (bgl)>groundwater from 30m bgl>stream water>groundwater from10m bgl>hillslope soil water>wetland soil water>bulk deposition with median values of 0.24, 0.21, 0.17, 0.15, 0.11, 0.07, 0.03 and 0.01mmolL-1, respectively. Our results show that average deposition reductions of 62% did not result in equal changes of the sulphate mass-balance, which changed by only 47%. This difference occurs because sulphate originates from internal sources such as the groundwater and soil water. The Uhlirska catchment is subject to delayed recovery from anthropogenic acid depositions and remains a net source of stored sulphur even after three decades of declining inputs. The wetland groundwater and soil water provide environmental memories of legacy pollutant sulphate. Elevated stream water sulphate concentrations after the unusually dry summer 2015 imply importance of weather and climate patterns for future recovery from acidification.

Abstract
The Pregnane X (PXR), Vitamin D (VDR) and Farnesoid X (FXR) nuclear receptors have been shown to be receptors of bile acids controlling their detoxification or synthesis. Chenodeoxycholic (CDCA) and lithocholic (LCA) acids are ligands of FXR and VDR, respectively, whereas 3-keto and acetylated derivates of LCA have been described as ligands for all three receptors. In this study, we hypothesized that oxidation or acetylation at position 3, 7 and 12 of bile acids DCA (deoxycholic acid), LCA, CA (cholic acid), and CDCA by detoxification enzymes or microbiome may have an effect on the interactions with bile acid nuclear receptors. We employed reporter gene assays in HepG2 cells, the TR-FRET assay with recombinant PXR and RT-PCR to study the effects of acetylated and keto bile acids on the nuclear receptors activation and their target gene expression in differentiated hepatic HepaRG cells. We demonstrate that the DCA 3,12-diacetate and CA 3,7,12-triacetate derivatives are ligands of PXR and DCA 3,12-diacetate induces PXR target genes such as CYP3A4, CYP2B6 and ABCB1/MDR1. In conclusion, we found that acetylated DCA and CA are potent ligands of PXR. Whether the acetylated bile acid derivatives are novel endogenous ligands of PXR with detoxification or physiological functions should be further studied in ongoing experiments.

Abstract
Amblyopia represents the most common cause of insufficient monocular visual acuity in productive age.To begin the treatment in the early childhood is understood as the fundamental anticipation to achieve the optimal result. The research work concerns about the development of screening methods. Our retrospective study was not focused toward the efficacy of the screening itself, but it had to establish, how the participation of the suckling babies in the screening program influences the chance of good vision. The data analyzed in this study were obtained from retrospective review of medical records of two groups of patients of the Center for functional visual disorders. Four hundred and nineteen (419) patients with positive finding in the photo screening, selected by chance, were included into the study (SC group). In the second group, there were included 263 randomly selected patients who did not pass the photo screening procedure and to the first examination were referred by the pediatrician (PLDD group).The average age at the time of the first examination was 13 months in children from the SC group and 23 months in children from the PLDD group respectively.The difference was statistically highly significant. In both groups, the severity of the amblyopia related to the comparable degree of anisometropia and the degree of the involvement of binocular functions in strabismus related to the comparable degree of hypemetropia were compared. The data were evaluated according to the age of the child patients at the time of the examination used for the purpose of this study as well. The obtained data show, that the decrease of the visual acuity of the amblyopic eye in case of equal anisometropia is significantly higher in two to three years old children who were not screened. In older children, the results in the in the SC and PLDD groups did not significantly differ. The results of our study indicate that later (before the age of three years) beginning of systematic pleoptic treatment related to the absence in the screening program is not worsening the chance to good visual acuity at the age of six years in case of moderate to mid-severe amblyopia. The first examination indicated by the pediatrician later, at the time of evident signs of strabismus, may decrease the chance to the good functional results of the complex strabological treatment at the age of six years.

Abstract
Enhanced expression of tissue factor (TF) may result in thrombosis contributing to acute clinical consequences of coronary artery disease. Several studies demonstrated elevated plasma levels of TF in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). The aim of our study was to compare the concentrations of TF in coronary sinus (CS), proximal part of the left coronary artery (LCA) and peripheral vein (PV) of patients with ACS and stable coronary artery disease (SCAD). Time course of the TF plasma levels in PV was followed on day 1 and day 7 after index event of ACS presentation and was compared to day 0 values. No heparin was given prior to the blood sampling. Twenty-nine patients in the ACS group (age 63.6+/-10.8 years, 20 males, 9 females) and 24 patients with SCAD (age 62.3+/-8.1 years, 21 males, 3 females) were examined. TF plasma level was significantly higher in patients with ACS than in those with SCAD (239.0+/-99.3 ng/ml vs. 164.3+/-114.2 ng/ml; p=0.016). There was no difference in TF plasma levels in PV, CS and LCA (239.0+/-99.3 ng/ml vs. 253.7+/-131.5 ng/ml vs. 250.6+/-116.4 ng/ml, respectively). TF plasma levels tended to decrease only non-significantly on the day 7 (224.4+/-109.8 ng/ml). Significant linear correlation between TF and high sensitivity CRP (hs-CRP) levels on day 0 was found. In conclusion, TF plasma levels are elevated in patients with ACS not only locally in CS but also in systematic circulation. Our data support the relationship between TF production and proinflammatory mediators.

Abstract
The important substances of secondary metabolism include flavonoids and isoflavonoids. The Trifolium pratense L. (Fabaceae) suspension culture's yield of these metabolites is low, thus an attempt was made to increase the production by elicitation. The endogenous signal substances of the plants' defensive responses include jasmonic acid that also functions as a biotic elicitor in the case of exogenous application. In the experiment the authors monitored the impact of 4 different concentrations of jasmonic acid on the Trifolium pratense L. (variety DO-8 and variety DO-9) suspension culture's yield. The culture was cultivated in Gamborg medium to which 2 mg.l(-1) of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid and 2 mg.l(-1) of 6-benzylaminopurine were added. The maximum increase in the production of flavonoids was achieved, when compared with the control samples, with both varieties of the 500 micromol concentration (DO-9, 6-hour application by 140%; DO-8, 24-hour application by 65%). The production of isoflavonoids (genistin, daidzein, genistein, and formononetine) was best stimulated in both varieties by the 50 micromol concentration (in the case of DO-9 variety, the 48-hour application increased the content of genistin by up to 845%).

Abstract
This work focused on the cultivation of S. baicalensis Georgii in vitro cultures and on the possibilities of increasing the production of secondary metabolites in these cultures. The aim of the Sstudy was to determine whether the baicalin transport through vacuolar membrane is dependent on the presence of Mg-ATP. Our results showed that Mg-ATP had a significant effect on the ratio of baicalin and baicalein content and on the transport speed of these flavonoids. Therefore, the transport mechanism for baicalin are probably some of the MRP proteins which are the subfamily of the ABC transporte

Abstract
The production of secondary metabolites by plant cell cultures has been suggested as a feasible technology that attracted considerable industrial and academic interest in the past three decades. However, many secondary pathways are not well expressed in plant cell cultures. Optimization of culture medium, elicitation, genetic engineering and the supply of biosynthetic precursors are among the strategies adopted to increase secondary metabolite production in vitro. In this study, the effects of five potential biosynthetic precursors on the production of baicalin and baicalein in Scutellaria baicalensis Georgii suspension and callus cultures were measured. The results of this work show that flavonoid biosynthesis was most stimulated by the addition of sodium cinnamate in the concentration of 5 mg x l(-1) and by cinnamic acid (1 mg x l(-1)). Feeding with L-phenylalanine, malonic acid and sodium malonate did not induce changes in the amounts of flavonoids, and the biomass production was not affected.

Abstract
Important substances of secondary metabolism include flavonoids and isoflavonoids. The Trifolium pratense L. (Fabacae) suspension culture is characterized by low production of these metabolites and therefore we tried to influence the production output with elicitation. From their origin point of view, the elicitors are divided into two groups - biotic and abiotic. The latter group includes, for instance, the salts of heavy metals. Our work was aimed at observing the effect of the copper sulphate abiotic elicitor on the production of the Trifolium pratense L. suspension culture (variety DO-8 and variety DO-9) that was cultivated in Gamborg media supplemented with 2 mg l(-1) of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid and 2 mg l(-1) of 6-benzylaminopurine. The maximum increase in the flavonoid production took place, when compared with the test check, during the 168-hour application of the 100 micromol concentration. The DO-8 variety isoflavonoids production was stimulated namely during the 48-hour application of the I micromol concentration; the best elicitation effect of the DO-9 variety was achieved with the 168-hour application of the 10 micromol concentration.

Abstract
15638 Background: Prostate-cancer patients suffer from substantial distress with both their diagnosis and treatment. Several studies have looked at the use of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) in patients with prostate cancer to alleviate their stress and effects of therapy. We elected to study Reiki and Relaxation Response Therapy (RRT) in prostate-cancer patients. Methods: Patients receiving an eight-week course of radiation for prostate cancer were eligible. Consented participants were randomly assigned to RRT, to Reiki, or to no CAM therapy during radiotherapy. Reiki was given twice weekly, RRT once weekly. The feasibility of enrolling 60 patients, their compliance with physiologic and psychological testing, and preliminary assessment of the effect of CAM are the study endpoints. Statistical analysis of feasibility is based on the assumption that at least 80% of patients would complete 14/16 Reiki sessions or 7/8 RRT sessions. Patients were tested for outcome measures at baseline, at randomization, halfway through radiation, at completion of radiation and 2 months later. The psychosocial outcome measures used were the STAI, CES-D, FACT-G, FACIT: Fatigue Scale, and EPIC: Hormone Section. Physiological assessment included salivary cortisol, blood samples for interleukin-6, tumor necrosis factor alpha, CD8, natural killer cells, heat shock protein 70 and a validated bowel-and-bladder-symptom questionnaire. Results: We have enrolled 62 of 108 eligible patients (60%) within 18 months. The number of enrollment has been increased to 62 as two patients changed their treatment location. To date five patients dropped out short of completion, 1 became ineligible, 32 have completed the study, 20 are still receiving CAM therapy or are in active follow-up and 2 are awaiting randomization and radiotherapy. Conclusions: Complementary therapy appears to be of much interest to prostate-cancer patients. At the completion of the trial, we will have more data on feasibility, compliance and preliminary results on the effect of CAM intervention in this population. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
Common buckwheat is a valuable source of the flavonoid rutin. Its in vitro culture was derived from a young seedling plant and the content of flavonoids in the callus culture was compared with their content in an intact plant. The optimal nutrient medium for the cultivation of the in vitro culture and for the production of flavonoids is Murashige and Skoog medium which contains, during the cultivation in the normal light regime, the growth regulators combination of 2,4-D 1 mg/l and kinetin 1 mg/l.

Abstract
Tissue factor is a cell surface protein that is expressed constitutively by monocytes, macrophages and fibroblasts, but also by some other cells in response to a variety of stimuli. The main function of the tissue factor is to form a complex with factor VII/VIIa that converts factors IX and X to their active forms. Tissue factor is also involved in the pathophysiology of systemic inflammatory disorders, coagulopathies, atherosclerotic disease, tumor angiogenesis and metastasis. Increased tissue factor expression either locally in the coronary plaques or systematically on circulating blood elements of patients with acute coronary syndromes may be responsible for increased thrombin generation, thus leading to platelet activation and fibrin formation. Tissue factor therefore plays a pivotal role in the initiation of thrombotic complications in patients with coronary artery disease.

Abstract
The paper deals with the effects of different growth regulators on the growth of the culture and production of isoflavonoids in the cultivation of the callus culture Genista tinctoria on MS medium under varying light regimens. Of the regulators tested, the highest growth of the culture was found when using BAP 10 mg/l under continuous lighting. With the use of BAP 0.1 mg/l and under normal light regimen, the production of genistine and daidzenin was even higher than in the intact plant. Of the five isoflavonoids determined, four were demonstrated in the callus culture: genistine, genistein, daidzein, and formononetin. In the intact plant the authors managed to determine daidzein, genistein, and biochanin A.

Abstract
The red cloverl seems to be a prospective source of flavonoids and isoflavonoids with phytoestrogenic activity. Young seedlings of four different varieties of Trifolium pratense L. were employed to derive callus and suspension cultures. The optimal medium for cultivation is Gamborg's cultivating medium with an addition of 2 mg x l(-1) of 2,4-dichlorphenoxyacetic acid and 2 mg x l(-1) of 6-benzylaminopurine. On the basis of growth and production characteristics, subcultivating intervals of 29 to 43 days in callus culture and 16 to 23 days in suspension culture were determined. TLC and HPLC revealed that the explant culture of Trifolium pratense L. contains the isoflavonoid formononetin.

Abstract
The paper tested the effect of ultrasound of output density of 0.1 W/cm3 (stable frequency, 35 kHz) on the production of flavonoids in the suspension culture of Ononis arvensis L. The use of this abiotic elicitor was proved good to increase the production of secondary substances (flavonoids) in the culture of Ononis arvensis L. in vitro. The maximal production of flavonoids began after a 1 min action of ultrasound and immediate withdrawal of the culture--an increase by 677% in comparison with the control (without the action of ultrasound).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypertension in patients after renal transplantation (RTx) is associated with impaired graft functions and graft survival. Control of hypertension in children after RTx is low--only 20-50 % of children have well controlled hypertension. The aim of this interventional study is to improve blood pressure control and to investigate whether the improved control will improve the graft survival. METHODS AND RESULTS 36 children after RTx (mean age 13.9 +/- 4.4 years, time after RTx 2.7 +/- 2.4) fulfilled the inclusion criteria. Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) and graft function were examined. In children with uncontrolled hypertension, the dose and number of antihypertensive drugs were increased to reach BP <95th centile. ABPM was repeated after 12 months. After 12 months day-time and night-time BP dropped non-significantly, however prevalence of uncontrolled hypertension improved significantly from 42 % to 34 % (p<0.05). Number of antihypertensive drugs increased from 2.1 +/- 0.9 to 2.4 +/- 0.8 drugs per patient (p<0.05), namely that of ACE-inhibitors (from 19% to 27%, p<0.05). Graft function decreased by 3.6 ml/min/1.73m2/year (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS This 12 months interventional trial demonstrated that control of hypertension in children after RTx can be improved by increasing number of prescribed antihypertensive drugs. The decline of graft function was lower comparing with previous trials.
