Bakteriom stolice při terapii dětských neinfekčních onemocnění / The stool bacteriome during therapy for paediatric non-infectious diseases

Vodolánová, Lucie January 2021 (has links)
The intestinal microbiota is composed of up to 100 trillion microorganisms of which bacteria are overwhelming majority. The microbiota affects the development of the immune system, defence against pathogens, host nutrition, vitamin synthesis or fat storage and its composition is changing throughout life. Some studies point to an association between microbiota composition and the development of inflammatory bowel disease. One of the treatment options is anti-TNFα antibodies therapy, which uptake or antagonize the TNFα cytokine that otherwise mediates inflammation in the intestinal mucosa. The aim of the thesis was to examine how this treatment affects the composition of the intestinal bacteriome in paediatric patients with Crohn's disease, and to find specific bacterial taxa, whose abundance changes during the treatment. By inclusion of patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis, also treated with anti-TNFα, the study aims to discern specific effects of therapeutically induced intestinal restitution (observable in patients with Crohn's disease) from general effects of anti-TNFα therapy. Stool samples from healthy children were used to determine "healthy" bacteriome. The composition of the bacteriome was studied by profiling the variable region of the V4 gene of 16S rDNA from patients stool samples...

Kostní remodelace u revmatických onemocnění: Ztráta kosti u pacientů s juvenilní idiopatickou artritidou. / Bone remodeling in rheumatic diseases: Bone loss in juvenile idiopathic arthritis

Brábníková Marešová, Kristýna January 2015 (has links)
Introduction: The inflammation plays the essential role in the bone loss in juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). Proinflammatory cytokines and also glucocorticoids (GCs) may activate bone resorption by osteoclasts. Simultaneously, bone formation can be attenuated, especially by inhibitors of proteins, which control the osteoblast differentiation. The aim was to verify the hypothesis that in patients with highly active JIA, reduction of bone formation via Wingless (Wnt) proteins inhibitors - Dickkopf 1 (Dkk-1) and sclerostin could be found. Except the densitometry measurements of bone and lean mass, we assessed markers of disease activity, bone metabolism and remodeling in young adult patients with JIA before and during 2 years of anti TNFα (tumour necrosis factor α) treatment, which decreases disease activity. Results: In patients with JIA before antiTNFα treatment, bone mineral density (BMD, g/cmš) was significantly reduced compared to controls. Values of BMD and body composition in JIA significantly depended on disease duration and GCs treatment. Serum concentration of sclerostin was significantly elevated in JIA compared to values in healthy controls. Values of the other monitored markers did not differ between JIA and controls. In patients with JIA, Dkk-1 correlated positively with C-reactive...
