BCCA branched chain amino acids liver cirrhosis hepatitis amino acids

shared by Nathan Goodyear on 05 Oct 15 - No Cached
  • low level of BCAAs in patients with cirrhosis is hypothesized to be one of multiple factors responsible for development of hepatic encephalopathy
  • supplementation of BCAAs is thought to facilitate ammonia detoxification by supporting synthesis of glutamine, one of the non-branched chain amino acids, in skeletal muscle and in the brain as well as diminishing the influx of AAAs across the blood-brain barrier
  • oral BCAA supplementation is more useful in chronic encephalopathic patients than is parenteral BCAA supplementation in patients with acute encephalopathy
  • ...35 more annotations...
  • malnutrition progressing to cachexia is another common manifestation of cirrhosis
  • Malnutrition can be mitigated with BCAA supplementation
  • Studies show that administration of amino acid formulas enriched with BCAAs can reduce protein loss, support protein synthesis, and improve nutritional status of patients with chronic liver disease
  • Leucine has been shown to be the most effective of the BCAAs because it acts via multiple pathways to stimulate protein synthesis
  • BCAAs metabolites inhibit proteolysis
  • Patients with cirrhosis have both insulin deficiency and insulin resistance
  • BCAAs (particularly leucine) help to reverse the catabolic, hyperglucagonemic state of cirrhosis both by stimulating insulin release from the pancreatic β cells and by decreasing insulin resistance allowing for better glucose utilization
  • Coadministration of BCAAs and glucose has been found to be particularly useful
  • BCAA supplementation improves protein-energy malnutrition by improving utilization of glucose, thereby diminishing the drive for proteolysis, inhibiting protein breakdown, and stimulating protein synthesis
  • Cirrhotic patients have impaired immune defense, characterized by defective phagocytic activity and impaired intracellular killing activity
  • another effect of BCAA supplementation is improvement of phagocytic function of neutrophils and possibly improvement in natural killer T (NKT) cell lymphocyte activity
  • BCAA supplementation may reduce the risk of infection in patients with advanced cirrhosis not only through improvement in protein-energy malnutrition but also by directly improving the function of the immune cells themselves
  • BCAA administration has also been shown to have a positive effect on liver regeneration
  • A proposed mechanism for improved liver regeneration is the stimulatory effect of BCAAs (particularly leucine) on the secretion of hepatocyte growth factor by hepatic stellate cells
  • BCAAs activate rapamycin signaling pathways which promotes albumin synthesis in the liver as well as protein and glycogen synthesis in muscle tissue
  • Chemical improvement with BCAA treatment is demonstrated by recovery of serum albumin and lowering of serum bilirubin levels
  • long-term oral BCAA supplementation was useful in staving off malnutrition and improving survival by preventing end-stage fatal complications of cirrhosis such as hepatic failure and gastrointestinal bleeding
  • The incidence of death by any cause, development of liver cancer, rupture of esophageal varices, or progression to hepatic failure was decreased in the group that received BCAA supplementation
  • Patients receiving BCAA supplementation also have a lower average hospital admission rate, better nutritional status, and better liver function tests
  • patients taking BCAA supplementation report improved quality of life
  • BCAAs have been shown to mitigate hepatic encephalopathy, cachexia, and infection rates, complications associated with the progression of hepatic cirrhosis
  • BCAAs make up 20-25% of the protein content of most foods
  • Highest levels are found in casein whey protein of dairy products and vegetables, such as corn and mushrooms. Other sources include egg albumin, beans, peanuts and brown rice bran
  • In addition to BCAAs from diet, oral supplements of BCAAs can be used
  • Oral supplementation tends to provide a better hepatic supply of BCAAs for patients able to tolerate PO nutrition as compared with IV supplementation, especially when treating symptoms of hepatic encephalopathy
  • Coadministration of BCAAs with carnitine and zinc has also been shown to increase ammonia metabolism further reducing the encephalopathic symptoms
  • Cirrhotic patients benefit from eating frequent, small meals that prevent long fasts which place the patient in a catabolic state
  • the best time for BCAA supplementation is at bedtime to improve the catabolic state during starvation in early morning fasting
  • A late night nutritional snack reduces symptoms of weakness and fatigability, lowers postprandial hyperglycemia, increases skeletal muscle mass,[25] improves nitrogen balance, and increases serum albumin levels.[26] Nocturnal BCAAs even improve serum albumin in cirrhotic patients who show no improvement with daytime BCAAs
  • Protein-energy malnutrition (PEM), with low serum albumin and low muscle mass, occurs in 65-90% of cases of advanced cirrhosis
  • hyperglucagonemia results in a catabolic state eventually producing anorexia and cachexia
  • BCAAs are further depleted from the circulation due to increased uptake by skeletal muscles that use the BCAAs in the synthesis of glutamine, which is produced in order to clear the ammonia that is not cleared by the failing liver
  • patients with chronic liver disease, particularly cirrhosis, routinely have decreased BCAAs and increased aromatic amino acids (AAAs) in their circulation
  • Maintaining a higher serum albumin in patients with cirrhosis is associated with decreased mortality and improved quality of life
  • the serum BCAA concentration is strongly correlated with the serum albumin level

    Lightweight, compact-folding wheelchairs for children, teenagers, and young adults let go anywhere, while still ensuring proper positioning and support. Going to school, appointments and even on vacation is possible with the convenient, lightweight design. Just fold it up and put it in trunk. Foldable Wheelchair by features a powder coat steel frame with durable nylon upholstery and padded armrests. Composite mag wheels with maintenance-free bearings and composite handrims make for a smooth ride. As with anything with moveable parts, the folding wheelchair is not as durable as the rigid frame wheelchair. Therefore maintenance is required more frequently to keep all parts in good working order. Before purchasing a wheelchair, consider all activity level. If traveling often, and need a highly-portable option, a folding lightweight wheelchair may be. Lightweight wheelchairs provide convenience and comfort to the user and caregiver alike and are often built using materials like aluminum and titanium alloy, while foldable wheelchairs allow for easy storage and transport. Merge the two styles, and got a great mobility aid that isn't a pain to lug around. Folding wheelchairs also have removable foot rests which allow for easy folding. Most frames are made from aluminum or titanium and are heavier than the rigid frame. wheelchair is designed to fit the body of the user, while the primary design of the folding wheelchair is to fold. Folding wheelchairs are generally more "boxy" while rigid wheelchairs conform to the shape of the body. This means it can hold the users body in place by tapering the frame and seat. The folding wheelchair cannot be tapered or it would not close completely. Features: Powder coat steel frame. Durable nylon upholstery. Composite mag wheels with maintenance-free bearings. Composite footplates. Padded armrests. Composite handrims. Maximum weight capacity.

    Today was an exceptionally bright day. At least the morning. The rest of the day was marred by Kate throwing up on me nonstop. She felt a strong sensation of nausea and dizziness. But why does she eat at that weird Mexican place when she knows it makes her stomach sick? Every time she goes there, she feels a gut-wrenching, stomach-turning urge to release all that her belly holds. I mean, the stomach is an elastic bag made of muscular walls containing acid. We read that in science once. But why does Kate's stomach hold a serious grudge against Mexican food?

    The walnut benefits can also be useful for weight loss purpose. The containing omega-3 inside the walnut have fatty acids with other substances into it. The 2.5 grams of 'ALA' per serving is found rich beneficial sources as the fatty acid. From studies among the women's observed that having a walnut at diet can be helpful for reducing the weight loss with greater efficiency. It also lowers the 'bad' levels of LDL cholesterol from the body. And the higher levels of 'HDL' cholesterol in a good manner as suggested by the doctors.

    The penis gets pimples, white or red items make men worried because they don't know the cause. In most of the causes of penile acne, the group of causes of sexually transmitted diseases is the most dangerous. Genital skin is very sensitive, especially in the penis. Only a small change can cause abnormal symptoms such as tumors, irritation, irritation and discomfort. Men need to understand the reasons for effective prevention and treatment. Group of allergy causes: Men with acne in the penis due to local allergies, for example, the penis skin has been exposed to "strange" substances from poor quality condoms. In addition, wearing underwear that is too tight, fabric material is not guaranteed or new clothes bought without washing well and many dust and dirt also cause irritation and penile pimples. Eating allergenic foods can also irritate the skin and, if unfortunately, the skin is as delicate as the "genital area".

genomic signaling cancer hormones non-genomic signaling

shared by Nathan Goodyear on 10 Apr 21 - No Cached
  • steroid hormones typically interact with their cognate receptor in the cytoplasm for AR, glucocorticoid receptor (GR) and PR, but may also bind receptor in the nucleus as appears to often be the case for ERα and ERβ
  • This ligand binding results in a conformational change in the cytoplasmic NRs that leads to the dissociation of HSPs, translocation of the ligand-bound receptor to the nucleus
  • In the nucleus, the ligand-bound receptor dimerizes and then binds to DNA at specific HREs to regulate gene transcription
  • ...25 more annotations...
  • some steroid hormone-induced nuclear events can occur in minutes
  • the genomic effects of steroid hormones take longer, with changes in gene expression occurring on the timescale of hours
  • Classical steroid hormone signaling occurs when hormone binds nuclear receptors (NR) in the cytoplasm, setting off a chain of genomic events that results in, among other changes, dimerization and translocation to the nucleus where the ligand-bound receptor forms a complex with coregulators to modulate gene transcription through direct interactions with a hormone response element (HRE)
  • NRs have been found at the plasma membrane of cells, where they can propagate signal transduction often through kinase pathways
  • Membrane-localized ER, PR and AR have been reported to modulate the activity of MAPK/ERK, phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (Akt), nitric oxide (NO), PKC, calcium flux and increase inositol triphosphate (IP3) levels to promote cell processes including autophagy, proliferation, apoptosis, survival, differentiation, and vasodilation
  • ERα36, a 36kDa truncated form of ERα that lacks the transcriptional activation domains of the full-length protein. Membrane-localized ERα36 can activate pathways including protein kinase C (PKC) and/or mitogen activated protein kinase/extracellular signal-regulated kinase (MAPK/ERK) to promote the progression of various cancers
  • G protein-coupled receptor 30 (GPR30), also referred to as G protein-coupled estrogen receptor (GPER), is a membrane-localized receptor that has been observed to respond to estrogen to activate rapid signaling
  • hormone-responsive G protein coupled receptor is Zip9, which androgens can activate
  • GPRC6A is another G protein-coupled membrane receptor that is responsive to androgen
  • androgen-mediated non-genomic signaling through this GPCR can modulate male fertility, hormone secretion and prostate cancer progression
  • non-NR proteins located at the cell surface can bind to steroid hormones and respond by eliciting rapid signaling events
  • Estrogens have been shown to induce rapid (i.e. seconds) calcium flux via membrane-localized ER (mER)
  • ER-calcium dynamics lead to activation of kinase pathways such as MAPK/ERK which can result in cellular effects like migration and proliferation
  • 17β-estradiol (E2) has been reported to promote angiogenesis through the activation of GPER
  • Membrane NRs may also mediate rapid signaling through crosstalk with growth factor receptors (GFR)
  • A similar crosstalk occurs between the receptor tyrosine kinase insulin-related growth factor-1 receptor (IGF-IR) and ERα. Not only does IGF-IR activate ERα, but inhibition of IGF-IR downregulates estrogen-mediated ERα activity, suggesting that IGF-IR is essential for maximal ERα signaling

      This is a bombshell that shatters the current right brain approach to ER. It completely shatters the concept of eat sugar, whatever you want, with cancer treatment in ER+ or hormonally responsive cancer!
  • Further, ER activates IGF-IR pathways including MAPK
  • GPER is involved in the transactivation of the EGFR independent of classical ER
  • tight interconnection between genomic and non-genomic effects of NRs.
  • non-genomic pathways can also lead to genomic effects
  • androgen-bound AR associates with the kinase Src at the plasma membrane, activating Src which then leads to a signaling cascade through MAPK/ERK
  • However, Src can also increase the expression of AR target genes by the ligand-independent transactivation of AR
  • extranuclear steroid hormone actions can potentially reprogram nuclear NR events
  • estrogen modulated the expression of several genes including endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) via rapid signaling pathways
  • epigenetic changes can then mediate genomic events in uterine tissue and breast cancer cells

    The NHS is going to launch a new campaign using the iconic Beatles song 'Help!" to encourage people to take better care of their mental health. The campaign, being launched today (January 17), is backed by some of the UK's biggest artists, urging people to seek support for their mental wellbeing. Since the beginning of the pandemic around 2.3 million people have come forward for NHS talking therapies, with over 50 per cent being concerned about their mental health last year. The NHS is encouraging anybody experiencing anxiety, depression, or other common mental health concerns to experience how talking therapies can help them. NHS mental health talking therapies are a confidential service run by fully trainedexperts that can be accessed through self-referral or GP practice.
