    Hay alguna manera de salvar el riñón de trasplante fallido?Como todos sabemos algo del trasplante de riñón puede durar 10 años, incluso más tiempo, pero algunos de ellos puede va al fracaso de nuevo.Una vez que pasa el fracaso, la gente tiene que hacer frente a la diálisis o trasplante de nuevo, pero eso es la última cosa que la gente quiere enfrentar. Entonces hay nuevas maneras de ahorrar el riñón de trasplante fallido?

Branched-Chain Amino Acid Supplementation in Patients with Liver Diseases - 0 views

  • the optimum amount of BCAA supplements for liver disease has not been determined,
  • BCAAs not only provide substrates for protein synthesis but also accelerate the biochemical machinery, which facilitates liver regeneration, compensating for progressive liver-cell death
  • rapamycin signaling in the liver, a well-demonstrated effect of BCAAs, promotes albumin synthesis in the liver
  • ...1 more annotation...
  • the amount of BCAAs supplied in the various studies is extremely variable
  •  
    BCAA effective in patients with liver cirrhosis, liver cancer, and liver transplant.  BCAA improve the liver regenerative capacity.

    Is there any hope for stage 5 chronic kidney disease patient to live a high quality life?As we all know most of the patients with stage 5 will face dialysis or renal transplant, both of them can help them live better but meanwhile they also will bring some side-effect, so either of them can not ensure the kidney disease patient to enjoy a quality life.

Testosterone: More Than Having the Guts to Win the Tour de France - 0 views

  • female adult mice have microbiomes similar to those of prepubescent mice of both sexes;
  • the commensal microbial community in adult male mice significantly deviates from this shared initial pool.
  • A minimum level of testosterone and specific male-enriched microbes working together upregulate M2 macrophage and IFN-γ producing T cells in pancreatic lymph nodes. Microarray data show that both the IFN-γ and IL-1β pathways are also stimulated.
  • ...10 more annotations...
  • The incidence of T1D in these mice is positively correlated with the “femaleness” of the microbiota
  • These results support the hypothesis that the host androgen level is influential in determining the composition of the microbiota, which in turn affects T1D initiation and progression
  • a high testosterone level enriches the microbiota for specific organisms such as segmented filamentous bacteria (SFB) and Escherichia coli or Shigella–like (SECS) strains.
  • the microbiome in castrated adult males clearly shifts away from that of normal adult males and is closer to the microbiome of females
  • These microbes also upregulate host testosterone
  • In four independent experiments, the authors found no universal unique “male microbiome”
  • they did find that four distinct combinations of microbial groupings (with an interesting lack of overlap at the individual family level in the four experiments) were enhanced by androgen
  • one species consists of the segmented filamentous bacteria (SFB) and belongs to the Firmicutes, whereas the other is an Escherichia coli or Shigella–like (SECS) strain belonging to the Proteobacteria
  • colonization with protective microbiomes—e.g., SPF microbiota, SFB, and SECS—is positively correlated with high blood testosterone levels in male mice
  • A direct implication of this study is that probiotic administration or fecal transplantation is a theoretically possible approach to protection against T1D

    nice summary of article on the relationship between Testosteorne and gut microbiome in autoimmune disease.

Branched-Chain Amino Acid Enriched Supplements as Therapy for Liver Disease - 0 views

  • The most compelling basis for a more widespread prescription of BCAA supplements to patients with cirrhosis is the potential to avert general hepatic decompensation and subsequent death and liver transplantation

Improved leukemia-free survival after postconsolidation immunotherapy with histamine di... - 0 views

  • several independent lines of evidence suggest that cytotoxic effector cells such as T cells and natural killer (NK) cells participate in protecting patients with AML against relapse
  • A plethora of mechanisms have been proposed to account for the dysfunctional antileukemic lymphocytes in AML, including the production of T-cell- and NK-cell-inhibitory factors by AML blasts,48 a deficient expression of NK-cell receptors on leukemic cells,49 inhibition of antileukemic lymphocytes by mononuclear phagocytes,4 and an impaired stimulatory interaction between the CD28 antigen expressed by T cells and contact antigens on AML blasts
  • This trial met the primary endpoint and thus showed a significantly improved LFS for patients receiving HDC/IL-2 as compared with the current standard of care
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • T cells and NK cells with antileukemic activity can be recovered from most patients with AML in remission not receiving a transplant,
  • The present study evaluated an approach to immunotherapy in AML in which IL-2 is supplemented with histamine dihydrochloride (HDC) to enhance the function of cytotoxic antileukemic lymphocytes
  •  
    IL-2 plus histamine in patients with AML complete remission improves leukemia free survival.
