AIM: The molecular mechanisms by which hepatocyte nuclear factor (HNF) 4α regulates fetal liver development have not been fully elucidated. We screened the downstream molecules of HNF4α during liver development, and identified sodium-coupled neutral amino acid transporter (SNAT) 4. The aim of this study is to investigate the regulation of SNAT4 by HNF4α and to clarify its roles in differentiating hepatocytes. METHODS: HNF4αwas over-expressed in cultured liver buds using adenovirus, and suppression subtractive hybridization screening was performed. Temporal and spatial expression of SNAT4 during liver development was investigated. Regulation of SNAT4 by HNF4αwas examined by promoter analyses and electrophoretic mobility-shift assays (EMSA). Metabolic labeling and Western blotting were carried out using primary hepatoblasts with SNAT4 over-expression. RESULTS: The expression of Slc38a4 encoding SNAT4 showed a marked perinatal increase, and was predominant among system A amino acid transporters. It was first detected in E18.5 liver, and found in most hepatocytes after birth. Three alternative first exons were found in SNAT4 gene. Promoter analyses using ∼3 kb fragments corresponding to each first exon (AP1, AP2, AP3) revealed that AP1 and AP2 exhibited strong promoter activity in mouse hepatoblasts with endogenous HNF4α. Transactivation of AP2 was up-regulated by HNF4α in HeLa cells without endogenous HNF4α. EMSA has demonstrated that HNF4α directly binds to cis-elements in AP2. Over-expression of SNAT4 facilitated amino acid uptake and de novo protein synthesis in primary hepatoblasts. CONCLUSION: SNAT4 functions downstream of HNF4α, and plays significant roles in liver development through mechanisms of amino acid uptake and protein synthesis.

Neuron Discharge and c-Fos Expression in the Nucleus of the Solitary Tract Following Electroacupuncture at Acupoints of the Yangming Stomach Meridian of Foot.



J Acupunct Meridian Stud. 2013 Apr; 6(2): 82-8
He JF, Yan J, Li JS, Liu JH, Wang C, Chang XR, Qu YT

The nucleus of the solitary tract (nucleus tractus solitarii; NTS) is a primary center for both visceral afferents and somatic afferents. Previous experiments have demonstrated that the NTS is closely connected to the stomach and acupoints in the Yangming Stomach Meridian of Foot (ST Meridian). In this study, extracellular recording and immunochemistry methods were used to analyze the discharge of neurons and c-Fos protein expression in the NTS following acupuncture at different acupoints and a nonacupoint. A total of 104 discharging neurons were detected in the NTS of 52 rats, of which 86 provided complete data. After acupuncture at Sibai (ST 2), Zusanli (ST 36), Neiting (ST 44), Quanliao (SI 18), and the nonacupoint, the neuron response rate in the NTS was 65.12%, 51.16%, 46.51%, 34.88% and 31.40% respectively. For neuron response rate, there was a significant difference among Sibai (ST 2), Zusanli (ST 36), Neiting (ST 44), Quanliao (SI 18), and the nonacupoint (p<0.01 or p<0.05). In the other 48 rats, the number of c-Fos immunoreactive neurons in the NTS by electroacupuncture (EA) at Sibai (ST 2) group was significantly higher than that EA at other acupoints and the nonacupoint (p<0.05 or p<0.01). EA at both Zusanli (ST 36) and Neiting (ST 44) increased c-Fos immunoreactive neurons significantly over EA at Quanliao (SI 18) and the nonacupoint (p<0.05 or p<0.01), while there was no difference between EA at Quanliao (SI 18) and the nonacupoint group (p>0.05). The experiments demonstrated that the afferent convergence in NTS are different by body surface points stimulus, which suggests that the NTS might be a primary center in the central nervous system receiving acupoints stimulus from the ST Meridian.

Advancing the management of childhood epilepsies.



Eur J Paediatr Neurol. 2013 Apr 1;
Cross JH, Kluger G, Lagae L

Childhood epilepsies comprise a heterogeneous group of disorders and syndromes that vary in terms of severity, prognosis and treatment requirements. Effective management requires early, accurate recognition and diagnosis, and a holistic approach that addresses each individual's medical and psychosocial needs within the context of their overall health status and quality of life. With increasing understanding of underlying aetiologies, new approaches to management and treatment are emerging. For example, genetic testing is beginning to provide a tool to aid differential diagnosis and a means of predicting predisposition to particular types of epilepsy. Despite the availability of an increasing number of antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) - due not only to the development of new AEDs, but also to changes in regulatory requirements that have facilitated clinical development - seizure control and tolerability continue to be suboptimal in many patients, and there is therefore a continuing need for new treatment strategies. Surgery and other non-pharmacological treatments (e.g. vagus nerve stimulation, ketogenic diet) are already relatively well established in paediatric epilepsy. New pharmacological treatments include generational advances on existing AEDs and AEDs with novel modes of action, and non-AED pharmacological interventions, such as immunomodulation. Emerging technologies include novel approaches allowing the delivery of medicinal agents to specific areas of the brain, and 'closed-loop' experimental devices employing algorithms that allow treatment (e.g. electrical stimulation) to be targeted both spatially and temporally. Although in early stages of development, cell-based approaches (e.g. focal targeting of adenosine augmentation) and gene therapy may also provide new treatment choices in the future.

[Carpal tunnel syndrome: diagnostics and conservative treatment].



Lik Sprava. 2012; 163-5
Ponomarenko IuV, Murashko NK, Chupryna HM, Parnikoza TP, Sereda VH

The Carpal tunnel syndrome is the most frequent entrapment neuropaphy of human. The Article is dedicated to diagnostics and conservative treatment this pathology. The early diagnostics and in time fixed treatment prevents the progress of the disease, raises the quality of life and allows to avoid surgical procedure. Big attention is given acupuncture reflexotherepy and infrared latherotherepy, which use raises the quality of the therapeutic influences.

Laser acupuncture for depression: A randomised double blind controlled trial using low intensity laser intervention.



J Affect Disord. 2013 Jan 18;
Quah-Smith I, Smith C, Crawford JD, Russell J

INTRODUCTION: Trials of acupuncture for the treatment of depression have produced mixed results. We examined the effectiveness of laser acupuncture compared with placebo acupuncture for the treatment of major depression. METHODS: A randomised, double blinded, placebo controlled trial was conducted in Sydney, Australia. Participants aged 18-50 years with DSM-IV major depressive disorder were eligible to join the study. Forty-seven participants were randomised to receive laser acupuncture or placebo laser at acupoints LR14, CV14, LR8, HT7 and KI3. The intervention was administered twice a week for 4 weeks and once a week for another four weeks, for a total of 12 sessions. The primary outcome assessed the change in severity of depression using the Hamilton-Depression Rating Scale (HAM-D), and secondary outcomes assessed the change in severity of depression using the Quick Inventory for Depression-Self Reporting (QID-SR), the Quick Inventory for Depression-Clinician (QIDS-CL), with outcomes assessed at eight weeks. The treatment response (greater than 50% improvement in HAM-D) and remission (HAM-D<8) were analysed. RESULTS: At eight weeks participants showed greater improvement in the active laser group on the primary and clinician-rated secondary outcome measures (HAM-D (mean 9.28 (SD 6.55) vs. mean 14.14 (SD 4.78 p<0.001); QIDS-CL (mean 8.12 (SD 6.61 versus 12.68 (mean SD 3.77)) p<0.001). The self-report QIDS-SR scores improved in both groups but did not differ significantly between the groups. In the active laser group, QIDS-SR scores remained significantly lower than baseline at 3 months follow-up. Response rates (active laser, placebo laser) on ITT (intention to treat) analyses were 72.0% and 18.2% (p<0.001), respectively. Remission rates on ITT analyses (active laser, placebo laser) were 56.0% and 4.5% (p<0.001). Transient fatigue was the only adverse effect reported. LIMITATIONS: There was no follow-up for the placebo group at one and 3 months. CONCLUSION: Laser acupuncture showed a clinically and statistically significant benefit with reducing symptoms of depression on objective measures.
