  • Obstructive jaundice activates nitroxidergic neurons of the vago-vagal neural circuit that regulates the hepatobiliary system in rabbits. 21625066

    In this study, we investigated the expression of neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate-diaphorase (NADPH-d), two specific enzymes for nitric oxide (NO) synthesis, in the development of liver fibrosis induced by chronic bile duct ligation (BDL) in the rabbit. We specifically studied the liver-innervated nitroxidergic neurons that originate in the nodose ganglion (NG), nucleus of the solitary tract (NTS) and dorsal motor vagal nucleus (DMV). Our data showed that BDL resulted in overexpression of NADPH-d/nNOS in the NG, NTS and DMV neurons. Using densitometric analysis, we found a significant increase in NADPH-d expression as a result of BDL in the NG, NTS and DMV (72.6, 79.4 and 57.4% increase, respectively). These findings were corroborated by serum biochemistry and hepatic histopathological examination, which were influenced by NADPH-d/nNOS-generated NO in the liver following BDL. Upregulation of NADPH-d/nNOS expression may have important implications, including (1) facilitation of extrahepatic biliary parasympathetic tone that promotes gallbladder emptying of excess stagnant bile; (2) relaxation of smooth muscles of bile canaliculi thus participating in the pathogenesis of cholestasis; (3) dilation of hepatic sinusoids to counter BDL-induced intrahepatic portal hypertension in which endothelia may be damaged, and (4) alterations in hepatic metabolism, such as glycogenesis, bile formation and secretion, and bilirubin clearance.

  • Congenital jaundice in rats with a mutation in a multidrug resistance-associated protein gene. 8599091

    The human Dubin-Johnson syndrome and its animal model, the TR(-) rat, are characterized by a chronic conjugated hyperbilirubinemia. TR(-) rats are defective in the canalicular multispecific organic anion transporter (cMOAT), which mediates hepatobiliary excretion of numerous organic anions. The complementary DNA for rat cmoat, a homolog of the human multidrug resistance gene (hMRP1), was isolated and shown to be expressed in the canalicular membrane of hepatocytes. In the TR(-) rat, a single-nucleotide deletion in this gene resulted in a reduced messenger RNA level and absence of the protein. It is likely that this mutation accounts for the TR(-) phenotype.

  • Hepcidin protects against lipopolysaccharide-induced liver injury in a mouse model of obstructive jaundice. 22504010

    Obstructive jaundice (OJ) increases the risk of liver injury and sepsis, leading to increased mortality. Cholestatic liver injury is associated with a downregulation of hepcidin expression levels. In fact, hepcidin has an important antimicrobial effect, especially against Escherichia coli. It is unknown whether supplementing recombinant hepcidin is effective in alleviating cholestasis-induced liver injury and mortality in mice with superimposed sepsis. A mouse model of cholestasis was developed using extrahepatic bile duct ligation for 3 days. In addition, sepsis due to E. coli 0111:B4 lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was induced in the model. The serum levels of total bilirubin, AST, ALT, and LDH and the mRNA levels of IL-1β, TNF-α, and MCP-1 in the liver were significantly higher in the OJ mice receiving LPS than in the sham-operated mice receiving LPS. Compared to the OJ mice receiving LPS, the hepcidin-pretreated OJ mice receiving LPS showed a significant decrease in the above mentioned parameters, as well as a reversal in the downregulation of LC3B-II and upregulation of cleaved caspase-3; this, in turn, led to significantly decreased lethality in 24h. In conclusion, these results indicate that hepcidin pretreatment significantly reduced hepatic proinflammatory cytokine expression and liver injury, leading to reduced early lethality in OJ mice receiving LPS. Enhanced autophagy and reduced apoptosis may account for the protective effects of hepcidin.

  • Longitudinal studies in South Indian villages on Japanese encephalitis virus infection in mosquitoes and seroconversion in goats. 12581445

    Japanese encephalitis (JE) is endemic in Cuddalore district, Tamil Nadu, where Culex tritaeniorhynchus Giles was the major vector. We screened 45 100 adult female Cx. tritaeniorhynchus (902 pools) by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and isolated and confirmed JE virus (JEV) by using an insect bioassay system. We had 69 isolates of which 62 (90%) were identified as JEV. The average vector abundance per man hour for Cx. tritaeniorhynchus was 324.5 per month for the period June 1998-May 2000. The average minimum infection rate (MIR) per month in Cx. tritaeniorhynchus was 1.4 (range 0.0-5.6). Every year, a new batch of goats, 20 in the first year and 31 in the second year, born during the non-JE transmission period (January-June), aged <6 months and negative for haemagglutination inhibition (HI) antibodies were procured and placed in the villages as sentinels. Fortnightly, blood specimens were collected from these goats and tested for JE antibodies by HI test. Seroconversions (SCs) were recorded in 14 goats (70%) in the first year and 23 goats (74%) in the second year. JE HI antibody titres in goats were low (1:10-1:80) and these levels declined to undetectable levels in about 4 weeks following SCs. The time sequence of events indicated that four of five peaks of MIR in mosquitoes were followed 1-3 months later by peaks in the proportion of seroconverted goats. We suggest the screening of goats and cattle as a more feasible tool to stratify areas according to JE infection risk to the human population through the regular health system rather than screening mosquitoes using monoclonal antibodies, which is possible only in specialized laboratories.
