RESUMO

Chromogranins (Cgs) are acidic proteins that have been implicated in several physiological processes such as vesicle sorting, the production of bioactive peptides and the accumulation of soluble species inside large dense core vesicles (LDCV). They constitute the main protein component in the vesicular matrix of LDCV. This latter characteristic of Cgs accounts for the ability of vesicles to concentrate catecholamines and Ca(2+). It is likely that Cgs are behind the delay in the neurotransmitter exit towards the extracellular milieu after vesicle fusion, due to their low affinity and high capacity to bind solutes present inside LDCV. The recent availability of mouse strains lacking Cgs, combined with the arrival of several techniques for the direct monitoring of exocytosis, have helped to expand our knowledge about the mechanisms used by granins to concentrate catecholamines and Ca(2+) in LDCV, and how they affect the kinetics of exocytosis. We will discuss the roles of Cgs A and B in maintaining the intravesicular environment of secretory vesicles and in exocytosis, bringing together the most recent findings from adrenal chromaffin cells.

RESUMO

Se presentan los hallazgos clinocopatológicos de 18 niños con fibrosis hepática congénita estudiados en un perído de nueve años en el Hospital Infantil "Federico Gómez" de la Ciudad de México. La mayoría de los pacientes fueron menores de seis años; siete fueron del sexo masculino y 11 del femenino. Aunque FHC se hereda en forma autosómica recesiva, en ninguno de nuestros casos se encontró antecedente familiar de la enfermedad. Sólo dos de los pacientes tuvieron alteración renal. Llama la atención que diez de los casos cursaron con colangitis; dos de estos últimos fallecieron por septisemia secundaria a la colangitis. Las manifestaciones clínicas más relevantes fueron: distensión abdominal, hepatomegalia, esplenomegalia y colestasis. El pronóstico de FHC depende de varios factores, pero en nuestra serie la colangitis fue determinante.
