简介:AbstractBackground:Thyroid dysfunction is associated with cardiovascular diseases. However, the role of thyroid function in lipid metabolism remains partly unknown. The present study aimed to investigate the causal association between thyroid function and serum lipid metabolism via a genetic analysis termed Mendelian randomization (MR).Methods:The MR approach uses a genetic variant as the instrumental variable in epidemiological studies to mimic a randomized controlled trial. A two-sample MR was performed to assess the causal association, using summary statistics from the Atrial Fibrillation Genetics Consortium (n = 537,409) and the Global Lipids Genetics Consortium (n = 188,577). The clinical measures of thyroid function include thyrotropin (TSH), free triiodothyronine (FT3) and free thyroxine (FT4) levels, FT3:FT4 ratio and concentration of thyroid peroxidase antibodies (TPOAb). The serum lipid metabolism traits include total cholesterol (TC) and triglycerides, high-density lipoprotein, and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) levels. The MR estimate and MR inverse variance-weighted method were used to assess the association between thyroid function and serum lipid metabolism.Results:The results demonstrated that increased TSH levels were significantly associated with higher TC (β = 0.052, P = 0.002) and LDL (β = 0.041, P = 0.018) levels. In addition, the FT3:FT4 ratio was significantly associated with TC (β = 0.240, P = 0.033) and LDL (β = 0.025, P = 0.027) levels. However, no significant differences were observed between genetically predicted FT4 and TPOAb and serum lipids.Conclusion:Taken together, the results of the present study suggest an association between thyroid function and serum lipid metabolism, highlighting the importance of the pituitary-thyroid-cardiac axis in dyslipidemia susceptibility.
简介:目的:利用生物传感器跟踪技术从抗炎中药中筛选出具有拮抗内毒素的中药,为进一步对中药拮抗内毒素活性成分的分离纯化提供实验依据.方法:将革兰阴性细菌的脂质A(LipidA)包被于生物传感器的非衍生板建立靶点,跟踪测定赤芍、大黄、黄芩等78种中药的水提物和醇提物与LipidA的结合活性,再将筛选出的中药去鞣质后与定量的内毒素(LPS,20、50ng·ml-1)37℃孵育30min后,测定孵育后的样品与LipidA的结合情况,以评价样品内的活性物质含量.结果:在所筛选的78种中药中有12种中药的水提物与LipidA具有较高的亲和活性,在这12种中药中有6种中药的醇提物与LipidA也具有较高的亲和活性;通过对所筛选出的12种中药的水提物去除鞣质后与LPS的消耗实验,发现所筛选出的12种中药均含有除鞣质以外的与lipidA具有特异性结合的物质,并且12种中药中能与LipidA发生特异性结合作用的活性物质含量存在较大的差异.结论:生物传感器跟踪技术是一种快速、准确、有效的筛选平台,筛选出的12种中药均含有非鞣质类能与lipidA发生特异性结合作用的物质,为进一步对12种中药抗内毒素有效部位或单体的分离提供了重要的实验依据.

简介:AbstractEbola virus (EBOV) is one of the most pathogenic viruses in humans which can cause a lethal hemorrhagic fever. Understanding the cellular entry mechanisms of EBOV can promote the development of new therapeutic strategies to control virus replication and spread. It has been known that EBOV virions bind to factors expressed at the host cell surface. Subsequently, the virions are internalized by a macropinocytosis-like process, followed by being trafficked through early and late endosomes. Recent researches indicate that the entry of EBOV into cells requires integrated and functional lipid rafts. Whilst lipid rafts have been hypothesized to play a role in virus entry, there is a current lack of supporting data. One major technical hurdle is the lack of effective approaches for observing viral entry. To provide evidence on the involvement of lipid rafts in the entry process of EBOV, we generated the fluorescently labeled Ebola virus like particles (VLPs), and utilized single-particle tracking (SPT) to visualize the entry of fluorescent Ebola VLPs in live cells and the interaction of Ebola VLPs with lipid rafts. In this study, we demonstrate the compartmentalization of Ebola VLPs in lipid rafts during entry process, and inform the essential function of lipid rafts for the entry of Ebola virus. As such, our study provides evidence to show that the raft integrity is critical for Ebola virus pathogenesis and that lipid rafts can serve as potential targets for the development of novel therapeutic strategies.
