RESUMO
Objective To observe the antioxidative capability and the mRNA expression of sodium pump αl-subunit in kidney of hypothyroid rats by iodine deficiency and illuminate the pathogenesis of kidney damage.Methods Wistar rats were randomly divided into two groups as control group (NT) and hypothyroid group (HT).The rats were all fed with low-iodine diet derived from an endemic goiter area and drank deionized water containing different potassium iodide to duplicate hypothyriod animal models.We determined the morphometric parameters of kidney by routine histology method.The contents of malondialdehyde and free radical scavengers (GSH-PX and SOD) in kid-ney,as well as the activity of Na~+-K~+ ATPase were measured in two groups.The mRNA expression of sodium pump α1 subunit was determined by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction.Results Compared with that in the control group,in hypothyroid group (1) serum free T3,free T4,total T3 and total T4 were markedly lower.(2) mean glomerular area and volum diminished markedly.(3)the content of MDA and activity of PGx increased markedly,but the activity of SOD decreased significantly,as well as the one of Na~+-K~+-ATPase.(4)the mRNA expression level of sodium pump α1 subunit was lower.Conclusion In a hypothyroid state,the decrease of antiox-idative capability of kidney resulted in lipid peroxidative damage,atrophy of kidney,decreased activity of Na~+-K~+ -ATPase and degression of sodium pump α1 subunit mRNA expression.
RESUMO
Objective To observe the association between homocysteine (Hcy)level and low limb vascular disease(LLVD) in newly-diagnosed type 2 diabetic patients. Methods The study subjects were divided into three groups : control group (NC), newly-diagnosed type 2 diabetes group without peripheral artery disease (T2DM) and peripheral artery disease with newly-diagnosed type 2 diabetes group (T2DM+LLVD).Both Hcy and the ankle-brachial index(ABI) were measured in three groups. Results Compared with NC group, clinical parameters of body mass index,waist-to-hip ratio,systolic blood pressure, total cholesterol(TC),triglycerides(TG),low density lipoprotein-cholesterol(LDL-C),and glycated hemoglobin A1C (HbA1c) increased markedly,and the content of high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) was markedly lower in both T2DM and T2DM+LLVD groups.In T2DM+LLVD group the contents of Hcy,LDL-C and HbA1c were markedly higher than in T2DM group,but the content of HDL-C decreased significantly.Hcy was independently associated with the development of peripheral artery disease in newly-diagnosed type 2 diabetic patients by logisitic regression analysis. Conclusions Increased Hcy is an independent risk factor for peripheral artery disease in newly-diagnosed type 2 diabetes.
