  • Presence of obestatin in breast milk: relationship among obestatin, ghrelin, and leptin in lactating women. 18499397

    OBJECTIVE: The peptide hormones ghrelin and leptin have been found in blood and breast milk. This study was undertaken to investigate whether breast milk also contains obestatin, which is derived from the same gene as ghrelin but has opposite actions, and to characterize the relations among serum and milk ghrelin, obestatin, and leptin levels in lactating mothers. METHODS: Venous blood, colostrum, and mature milk were obtained from healthy lactating women (n = 31) just before suckling. The ghrelin and obestatin concentrations were determined by radioimmunoassay. Leptin levels were measured by enzyme-amplified sensitivity immunoassay. RESULTS: Obestatin levels in colostrum (538.9 pg/mL) and mature milk (528.5 pg/mL) were more than twice the corresponding blood levels (270.3 and 289.4 pg/mL, respectively). In contrast, leptin levels in colostrum (2.01 ng/mL) and mature milk (2.04 ng/mL) were more than five-fold lower than the corresponding blood levels (11.54 ng/mL). There was no correlation between breast milk ghrelin levels and leptin (r = -0.18, P > 0.05). However, there was a positive correlation between leptin levels in breast milk and blood (r = 0.369, P 0.05). CONCLUSION: The origin of milk obestatin is not currently known, but it comes from the blood or breast and may drain through the mammary glands into the milk. Ghrelin, obestatin, and leptin in the milk may directly affect appetite and their levels may be related to the regulation of energy balance and the pathogenesis of obesity.

  • Glomerular filtration rate determinations in conscious type II diabetic mice. 21147841

    Diabetic nephropathy is a major cause of end-stage renal disease worldwide. The current studies were performed to determine the later stages of the progression of renal disease in type II diabetic mice (BKS; db/db). Methodology was developed for determining glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in conscious, chronically instrumented mice using continuous intravenous infusion of FITC-labeled inulin to achieve a steady-state plasma inulin concentration. Obese diabetic mice exhibited increased GFR compared with control mice. GFR averaged 0.313 ± 0.018 and 0.278 ± 0.007 ml/min in 18-wk-old obese diabetic (n = 11) and control (n = 13) mice, respectively (P < 0.05). In 28-wk-old obese diabetic (n = 10) and control (n = 15) mice, GFR averaged 0.348 ± 0.030 and 0.279 ± 0.009 ml/min, respectively (P < 0.05). GFR expressed per gram BW was significantly reduced in 18- and 28-wk-old obese diabetic compared with control mice (5.9 ± 0.3 vs. 9.0 ± 0.3; 6.6 ± 0.6 vs. 7.8 ± 0.3 μl·min(-1)·g body wt(-1)), respectively (P < 0.05). However, older nonobese type II diabetic mice had significantly reduced GFR (0.179 ± 0.023 ml/min; n = 6) and elevated urinary albumin excretion (811 ± 127 μg/day) compared with obese diabetic and control mice (514 ± 54, 171 ± 18 μg/day), which are consistent with the advanced stages of renal disease. These studies suggest that hyperfiltration contributes to the progression of renal disease in type II diabetic mice.

  • Expression of beta-catenin and its mechanism of delocalization in intestinal-type early gastric cancer based on mucin expression. 19475529

    The biological characteristics of intestinal-type early gastric cancers (ICs) differ based on mucin phenotypes. Beta-catenin delocalization is a predictive marker of aggressive biological behavior (submucosal invasion and lymph node metastasis) of ICs. The presumptive causative genetic alterations leading to delocalization of beta-catenin in ICs are still controversial, and there are only a few reports regarding beta-catenin expression in gastric cancer based on mucin phenotypes. Therefore, in the current study, the expression and mechanisms of delocalization of beta-catenin were elucidated on the basis of mucin phenotypes in 109 cases of ICs. There was increased cytoplasmic and nuclear beta-catenin expression (delocalization) in ICs with a predominant intestinal mucin phenotype (ICIP; 46.3% [25/54 cases]) compared to ICs with a predominant gastric mucin phenotype (ICGP; 20% [11/55 cases]). There were no beta-catenin or APC mutations in ICs. APC promoter hypermethylation was present in 49 of 105 (46.7%) cases of ICs. There was a significant relationship between APC promoter hypermethylation and beta-catenin delocalization in ICs, especially in ICIPs. There was no relationship between beta-catenin delocalization and APC gene loss of heterozygosity in ICs. In conclusion, we showed that beta-catenin delocalization was more evident in ICIPs, and APC promoter hypermethylation might play a role in delocalization of beta-catenin, especially in ICIPs.
