Rôle de la signalisation des Bmp au sein des cellules mésenchymateuses dans le maintien de l'homéostasie gastrique / Role of mesenchymal Bmp signaling in the maintenance of gastric homeostasisRoy, Sébastien January 2016 (has links)
Les bones morphogenetic protein (Bmp) sont des morphogènes qui jouent des rôles sur la prolifération et la différenciation cellulaire. La perte de signalisation dans cette voie est associée à la polypose juvénile familiale et à un risque accru de cancer gastrique. Elle est aussi associée avec l’inflammation et la guérison des tissus. Il est montré qu’au niveau de l’estomac, les ligands et les récepteurs de la signalisation des Bmp sont exprimés dans les compartiments épithéliaux et mésenchymateux. Les différents modèles animaux développés ont confirmé l’importance de cette signalisation dans la carcinogenèse gastrique. Cependant, ces modèles causent une perte de signalisation dans l’ensemble de la muqueuse gastrique et ne réussissent pas à montrer un mécanisme. Parallèlement, notre laboratoire a montré qu’une perte de signalisation de la voie des Bmp, exclusivement dans le compartiment épithélial, ne développe pas les phénotypes associés à la progression du cancer gastrique. Ce résultat suggère que les cellules mésenchymateuses pourraient être la clé de l’importance de la signalisation des Bmp dans l’estomac. Afin de mettre en lumière le rôle de la signalisation des Bmp dans le compartiment mésenchymateux, des souris qui perdent de façon spécifique le récepteur de type 1a des Bmp dans ce compartiment ont été généré (Bmpr1aMES). Il semble que la perte de signalisation des Bmp induit au niveau du mésenchyme une modification du comportement et une activation des fibroblastes en myofibroblastes. Cette modification produit également un microenvironnement (matrices, facteurs de croissance, cytokines, interleukines) propice au développement du cancer et induire des modifications importantes de l’épithélium et un appel de cellules immunitaires. Cet environnement semble être suffisant pour réduire de façon importante le nombre de cellules endocriniennes et de cellules pariétales dans l’épithélium gastrique. Il semble que la perte mésenchymateuse de signalisation des Bmp au niveau gastrique entraîne le développement d’une métaplasie au niveau de l’estomac des souris, une hyperplasie atypique qui évolue jusqu'à une dysplasie accompagnée d’une desmoplasie importante. Mes travaux ont également démontré que, dans ce contexte, une mutation oncogénique, comme la perte de Trp53, pourrait devenir maligne. En conclusion, au sein du mésenchyme, la signalisation des Bmp est importante pour le maintien de celui-ci dans un état sain. Il est probable qu’elle joue un rôle important dans le retour à l’état normal suivant les gastrites. Sa perte rend l’estomac des souris fragile au développement d’adénomes. / Abstract : Bone morphogenetic proteins (Bmp) play roles in the proliferation and differentiation. It is also associated with inflammation and tissue repair. Disruption of signaling in this pathway is associated with familial juvenile polyposis and an increase risk of gastric cancer. It has been shown that in the stomach, Bmp signaling is bidirectional. Meaning that ligands and receptors are expressed in both the epithelial and stromal compartments. Gastric abrogation animal models of the Bmp signaling pathway have confirmed the importance of this signaling in gastric carcinogenesis. However these models cause a loss of signaling in both compartments of the gastric mucosa, and the mechanism of action for this has yet been undefined. Previous work by a student in our laboratory provided a model of loss of the Bmp signaling pathway exclusively in the epithelial compartment. This model does not develop phenotypes associated with the progression of gastric cancer, suggesting, that the stromal compartment is the key in tumorigenesis by Bmp signaling in the stomach. To further test this hypothesis, we generated mice with a stromal compartment-specific loss of type1a BMP receptor (Bmpr1aMES). It appears that this deletion in the stroma induced behavior alteration with activation of fibroblasts into myofibroblasts. This change also produces a microenvironment (matrix, growth factors, cytokines, and interleukins) that is conducive to the development of cancer and induces significant modifications of the epithelium as well as a recruitment of immune cells. This microenvironment seems to be sufficient to significantly reduce the number of endocrine cells and parietal cells in the gastric epithelium. It seems that the loss of stromal Bmp signaling in the mice’s stomachs causes development of metaplasia; atypical hyperplasia that progresses to dysplasia accompanied by a significant desmoplasia. My work also shows that in this environment an oncogenic mutation such as the loss of Trp53 may become malignant. In conclusion, in the stromal compartment, Bmp signaling is important for maintaining a healthy state. It is probably involved in the return to the normal state following gastritis, and its loss makes the mouse stomach susceptible to adenoma development.

Formulation and characterization of W/O nano-dispersions for bioactive delivery applicationsChatzidaki, Maria D. January 2016 (has links)
The main objective of this study was the formulation of food-grade water-in-oil (W/O) nano-dispersions based mainly on medium or long-chain triglycerides. Two types of dispersions were formulated and structurally compared, namely emulsions and microemulsions. The systems were used as matrices for encapsulating targeted bioactive molecules with specific characteristics such as antioxidants or peptides. The structural characterization of the formulated systems was investigated using techniques such as Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) spectroscopy, Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS), Cryogenic Transmission Electron Microscopy (Cryo-TEM) and Small Angle Xray Scattering (SAXS). The existence of swollen inverse micelles was revealed for the case of microemulsions whereas larger droplets still at the nano-scale were observed for the case of emulsions. Structural differences in the presence of the bioactive molecules or induced by the alteration of components were also observed. In order to study the efficacy of the formulations, the proposed loaded systems were assessed either using EPR spectroscopy or Well Diffusion Assay (WDA) depending on the bioactive molecule. It was found that the encapsulated molecules retained their claimed characteristics when encapsulated to the proposed matrices. Finally, some of the formulated dispersions were investigated for their behavior under gastrointestinal (GI) conditions. A two-step digestion model using recombinant Dog Gastric Lipase (rDGL) and Porcine Pancreatic Lipase (PPL) was proposed to simulate lipid hydrolysis in humans. The studies revealed significant decrease of the rDGL specific activity in the presence of the microemulsion while in the presence of lower percent of surfactants (case of emulsion) no alterations were observed.

Toll-like receptor 4 and interleukin 6 gene polymorphisms in Helicobacter pylori related diseasesPohjanen, V.-M. (Vesa-Matti) 31 May 2016 (has links)
Abstract
Helicobacter pylori is a Gram-negative bacterium, which infects the stomach of more than 50% of the population worldwide. In addition to being the most important risk factor for gastric cancer and peptic ulcers, H. pylori infection is a risk factor for several extra-digestive diseases including dyslipidemia. The consequences of having an H. pylori infection are significantly influenced by the inflammatory response of the host. The pattern recognition receptor Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) and the cytokine interleukin 6 (IL6) are important mediators of inflammation in H. pylori related diseases.
We have analyzed a series of control subjects and patients with dyspepsia, peptic ulcers or gastric cancer for frequent genetic polymorphisms of the TLR4 and IL6 genes. The prevalence of H. pylori infection, the histologic features of gastritis and cancer and serum endocrine markers and lipid concentrations were also analyzed. Furthermore, the expression of TLR4 was analyzed in specific cell types of gastric mucosa by immunohistochemistry.
The TLR4 wild type genotypes of polymorphisms +896 and +1196 were associated with an increased risk of peptic ulcers. The same genotypes also associated with higher serum gastrin levels, but not with atrophy or other features of gastritis. The TLR4 expression was seen in the gastrin and somatostatin secreting cells of gastric mucosa. These results suggest a regulatory link between TLR4 and gastrin secretion. Such a link indicates the presence of a novel effector mechanism for innate immunity in modifying the host endocrine function. The IL6 -174 polymorphism associated significantly with a risk of the diffuse type of gastric carcinoma but not with the intestinal type or its precursor conditions. Finally, we demonstrated that H. pylori infections modify HDL serum levels significantly only in IL6 -174 CC genotype patients, which suggests that the detrimental effects of H. pylori infections on HDL levels are transmitted through IL6. These results clarify the mechanisms of H. pylori related diseases and open new possibilities for research on peptic ulcer disease, gastric cancer and dyslipidemia. / Tiivistelmä
Helicobacter pylori on yleinen ihmisen mahalaukussa esiintyvä Gram-negatiivinen bakteeri. Helikobakteeri on tärkein mahasyövän ja maha- ja pohjukaissuolihaavan riskitekijä ja se on myös muun muassa rasva-aineenvaihdunnan häiriöiden riskitekijä. Ihmisen tulehdusvaste vaikuttaa merkittävästi helikobakteeri-infektion seurauksiin. Tollin kaltainen reseptori 4 (TLR4), joka on hahmontunnistusreseptori ja tulehduksenvälittäjäaine interleukiini 6 (IL6) ovat tärkeitä ihmisen tulehdusvasteeseen osallistuvia proteiineja.
Olemme tutkineet dyspepsiaa, maha- ja pohjukaissuolihaavaa ja mahasyöpää sairastavilta potilailta sekä kontrollihenkilöiltä TLR4:n ja IL6:n geenien yleisiä emäsjärjestyksen polymorfioita. Tutkimme myös helikobakteeri-infektion yleisyyttä ja histologisia piirteitä, mahasyövän histologisia piirteitä ja seerumin merkkiaineita ja lipidipitoisuuksia. Lisäksi tutkimme TLR4:n ilmenemistä mahan limakalvolla immunohistokemiallisesti.
TLR4:n polymorfismien +896 ja +1196 villin tyypin genotyypit liittyivät kohonneeseen maha- ja pohjukaissuolihaavan riskiin. Samat genotyypit liittyivät myös korkeampiin gastriinitasoihin. TLR4:ä esiintyi mahalaukun limakalvolla gastriinia tai somatostatiinia ilmentävissä soluissa. Täten TLR4:n ja maha- pohjukaissuolihaavariskin yhteys näyttää välittyvän gastriinin erityksen kautta, mikä viittaa uuteen säätely-yhteyteen luontaisen immuniteetin ja mahalaukun umpieritysjärjestelmän välillä. IL6 -174 -polymorfismi yhdistyi diffuusin tyypin mahakarsinooman riskiin mutta ei intestinaalisen tyypin karsinooman riskiin. Helikobakteeri-infektio yhdistyi pienentyneisiin HDL-kolesterolipitoisuuksiin vain potilailla, joilla oli IL6 -174 CC genotyyppi, mikä viittaa helikobakteerin kolesterolitasoille haitallisen vaikutuksen välittyvän IL6:n kautta. Nämä tulokset antavat lisätietoa helikobakteerin aiheuttamien sairauksien mekanismeista ja avaavat uusia tutkimuspolkuja myös mahahaavan, mahasyövän ja rasva-aineenvaihdunnan häiriöiden kliiniseen tutkimukseen.

Impact of a Comprehensive Nutrition and Lifestyle Education Intervention on Body Weight and Health-Related Outcomes in Morbidly-Obese Hispanic-Americans Following Laparoscopic Roux-En Y Gastric BypassPetasne Nijamkin, Monica 01 October 2010 (has links)
As morbid obesity increasingly affects Hispanic-Americans, the incidence of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass procedures (RYGB) among this population rises. Prospective research on the impact of postoperative educational interventions focused on Hispanic-Americans is needed to prevent premature weight loss plateau, weight regain, nutritional deficiencies, and relapse of obesity-related comorbidities. This randomized-controlled study evaluated the impact of a comprehensive nutrition and lifestyle education intervention (6 biweekly postoperative sessions that incorporated motivational strategies for behavioral change) as compared to a non-comprehensive approach (printed guidelines for healthy lifestyle). The variables to consider are body weight, obesity-related comorbidities (depression, diabetes, dyslipidemia, and others), nutrient status, physical activity, and eating habits in 144 morbidly-obese adult Hispanic-Americans 6 to 12 months following RYGB. Patients were randomly assigned to either the comprehensive intervention (n=72) or the comparison group (n=72). Participants (mean age 44.5 ± 13.5 years) were mainly Cuban-born females (83.3%). Intervention sessions attendance was 64%. At 12 months, both groups lost weight significantly, but those in the comprehensive intervention experienced greater excess weight loss than those in the comparison group (80% vs. 64% from preoperative excess weight, P<.001). Intervention participants were significantly more involved in physical activity (+ 14 min/week vs. – 4 min/week), had decreased depression, joint illness, and required less medication for comorbidities than comparison participants. Additionally, those in the comprehensive intervention had sustained supplement intake experiencing less folate deficiency (P=.014). The non-comprehensive intervention group significantly decreased their protein and supplement intake compared to the intervention group. Patients in the comprehensive intervention had significantly better eating habits reflected by fewer episodes of dumping syndrome, constipation, and night eating, than those in the comparison group who reported greater eating in response to negative emotions (P=.003). These findings support the importance of a comprehensive educational approach to achieve more effective weight reduction and health-related outcomes to prevent relapse of obesity-related comorbidities and nutritional deficiencies in Hispanic-Americans 6 to 12 months following RYGB.

Caractérisation et ciblage des cellules souches cancéreuses dans l’adénocarcinome gastrique / Characterization and targeting of cancer stem cells in gastric adenocarcinomaNguyen, Phu Hung 30 April 2015 (has links)
Les cellules souches cancéreuses (CSC) représentent une sous-population de cellules tumorales à l’origine de l’hétérogénéité et de la croissance tumorale. Les CSC sont plus résistantes aux traitements, et à l’origine de la rechute et des métastases. L’identification des CSC constitue actuellement un enjeu majeur dans le développement de nouvelles thérapies ciblées pour inhiber la croissance tumorale et éradiquer le cancer. Dans ce travail, nous avons cherché à identifier, caractériser, et cibler les CSC dans l’adénocarcinome gastrique. Des modèles murins de xénogreffe de tumeurs primaires de patients atteints d'adénocarcinome gastrique hors cardia de types intestinal et diffus ont été développés, ainsi qu’un modèle de tumorsphere in vitro afin d’évaluer les capacités tumorigéniques de sous-populations tumorales. Nous avons identifié CD44 et l'aldéhyde déshydrogénase (ALDH) comme marqueurs d’enrichissement des CSC dans les 2 types d’adénocarcinomes gastriques, l’ALDH représentant un marqueur plus spécifique que CD44. Nous avons ensuite étudié l'effet de l’acide rétinoïque tout trans (ATRA), et nous avons montré que l'ATRA inhibe la formation et la croissance des tumorspheres in vitro ainsi que la croissance tumorale in vivo. Cet effet de l’ATRA passe par l’inhibition de l’expression des marqueurs souches et des capacités d'auto-renouvèlement des CSC. En conclusion, CD44 et ALDH sont des marqueurs de CSC dans les adénocarcinomes gastriques hors cardia de types intestinal et diffus, et le traitement par l’ATRA constituerait une stratégie commune de traitement pour cibler spécifiquement les CSC et inhiber la croissance tumorale dans ces deux types de cancer gastrique. / Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are a subpopulation of tumor cells at the origin of the heterogeneity and growth of tumors. CSCs are more resistant to treatment, and are responsible for relapse and metastasis. The identification of CSCs is a major challenge for the development of new targeted therapies to inhibit tumor growth and eradicate cancer. In this work, we aimed to identify, characterize, and target CSCs in gastric adenocarcinoma. Mouse models of primary tumor xenografts from intestinal and diffuse type non-cardia gastric adenocarcinomas from patients were developed, as well as an in vitro tumorsphere assay, to assess the tumorigenic capacity of subpopulations of tumor cells. We identified CD44 and aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) as CSC enrichment markers in the two types of gastric adenocarcinoma, ALDH representing a more specific marker than CD44. We then studied the effect of All-trans retinoic acid (ATRA), and showed that it inhibited the formation and growth of tumorspheres in vitro and tumor growth in vivo. This effect of ATRA is due to the inhibition of stem marker expression and the self-renewal capacity of CSCs. In conclusion, CD44 and ALDH are effective CSC markers in intestinal and diffuse type non-cardia gastric adenocarcinomas, and treatment with ATRA provides a common treatment strategy to specifically target CSCs and inhibit tumor growth in both subtypes of this gastric cancer.

Détermination et optimisation du contenu gastrique en anesthésie / Assessment and optimization of gastric contents in anesthesiaBouvet, Lionel 19 December 2013 (has links)
L'inhalation pulmonaire du contenu gastrique représente l'une des principales causes de mortalité liée à l'anesthésie en France. La physiopathologie de cette complication fait intervenir, entre autres, la présence d'un contenu gastrique à l'origine d'une augmentation de la pression intragastrique favorisant la survenue de régurgitations et d'inhalations pulmonaires lors de l'anesthésie générale. La prévention de cette complication repose sur l'identification des patients à risque, ainsi que sur l'établissement de stratégies permettant de réduire le contenu gastrique. Suivant ces deux objectifs, nous avons conduit quatre études. Nous avons décrit et évalué l'apport de la mesure échographique de l'aire de section antrale pour l'estimation du volume du contenu gastrique en période préopératoire afin d'identifier les patients à risque d'inhalation pulmonaire. Nous avons montré chez des volontaires sains que la perfusion de 250 mg d'érythromycine est efficace pour accélérer la vidange gastrique des aliments solides lors de la gastroparésie induite par un stress douloureux. Enfin, nous avons déterminé le niveau de pression inspiratoire minimisant l'insufflation d'air dans l'estomac tout en assurant une ventilation satisfaisante lors de la ventilation au masque facial précédant l'intubation trachéale. Ce dernier résultat doit contribuer à modifier les recommandations afin d'améliorer la sécurité des patients lors de la ventilation au masque facial en anesthésie. En perspective d'avenir, l'échographie antrale permettra la réalisation d'études cliniques visant à préciser chez les patients opérés en urgence le risque d'inhalation pulmonaire et évaluant l'efficacité des mesures de prévention / Pulmonary aspiration of gastric content is one of the main causes of mortality related to anesthesia in France. The pathophysiology of this complication involves, among others, the presence of gastric content causing an increase in intragastric pressure leading to regurgitation and pulmonary inhalation during general anesthesia. Prevention of this complication is based on both identifying patients at risk and developing strategies to reduce the gastric contents. Following these two objectives, we conducted four studies. We have described and assessed the contribution of the ultrasound measurement of the antral cross-sectional area for estimating the preoperative volume of gastric content, in order to identify patients at risk of pulmonary aspiration. We have shown in healthy volunteers that the infusion of erythromycin 250 mg was effective in accelerating gastric emptying of solids during gastroparesis related to acute painful stress. Finally, we determined the level of inspiratory pressure that minimizes the risk of gastric insufflation while providing adequate ventilation during facemask ventilation performed prior to tracheal intubation. This result should contribute to the revision of the current recommendations, in order to improve the patient safety during facemask ventilation. In the future, ultrasound measurement of antral area can be used in clinical studies in order to clarify the risk of pulmonary aspiration of gastric content in emergency surgical patients, and to assess the effectiveness of preventive measures

Physiologically-based pharmacokinetic modelling and simulation of oral drug bioavailability : focus on bariatric surgery patients and mechanism-based inhibition of gut wall metabolismDarwich, Adam Saed January 2014 (has links)
Understanding the processes that govern pre-systemic drug absorption and elimination is of high importance in pharmaceutical research and development, and clinical pharmacotherapy, as the oral route remains the most frequently used route of drug administration. The emergence of systems pharmacology has enabled the utilisation of in silico physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modelling and simulation (M&S) coupled to in vitro-in vivo extrapolation in order to perform extrapolation and exploratory M&S in special populations and scenarios were concerns regarding alterations in oral drug exposure may arise, such as following gastrointestinal (GI) surgery or metabolic drug-drug interactions (DDIs).Due to the multi-factorial physiological implications of bariatric surgery, resulting in the partial resection of the GI tract, the inability to rationalise and predict trends in oral drug bioavailability (Foral) following surgery present considerable pharmacotherapeutical challenges. PBPK M&S is a highly implemented approach for the prediction of DDIs. Reoccurring issues have emerged with regards to predictions of the magnitude of mechanism-based inhibition (MBI) where overestimations of DDIs have repeatedly been reported for drugs exhibiting high intestinal extraction. The aim of this thesis was to explore the interplay between oral drug absorption and metabolism occurring in the GI tract through the exploration of the impact of bariatric surgery on oral drug exposure and by theoretically examining the nesting and hierarchy of enterocyte and enzyme turnover and its impact on MBIs in the small intestine. This would be carried out by utilising a systems pharmacology PBPK M&S approach under a general model development framework of identification and characterisation of critical intrinsic factors and parameters, model implementation and validation. Developed post bariatric surgery PBPK models allow a framework to theoretically explore physiological mechanisms associated with altered oral drug exposure pre to post surgery, which could be assigned to the interplay between dissolution, absorption and gut-wall metabolism, where dissolution and formulation properties emerged as the perhaps most important parameters in predicting the drug disposition following surgery. Model validation identified missing critical factors that are essential for additional model refinement. Developed post bariatric surgery PBPK models have the potential of aiding clinical pharmacotherapy and decision-making following surgery. A mechanistic PBPK model was developed to describe the hierarchical dependency of enzyme and enterocyte turnover in the small intestine. Predicted enzyme recovery using the nested enzyme-within-enterocyte turnover model may potentially account for reported overpredictions of mechanism-based inhibition. Developed models in this thesis showcase the advantage of PBPK M&S in the extrapolation of oral drug exposure to special population and the potential of a PBPK approach in understanding underlying the underlying mechanism governing Foral and additionally highlight the need for generation of interdisciplinary data to support model development.

Revisão sistemática e metanálise do tratamento endoscópico do reganho de peso pós-derivação gástrica em Y-de-Roux / Systematic review and meta-analysis of the endoscopic treatment of weight regain following Roux-en-Y gastric bypassVítor Ottoboni Brunaldi 03 April 2018 (has links)
Introdução: A derivação gástrica em Y-de-Roux (DGYR) é um dos procedimentos bariátricos mais realizados em todo o mundo. Apesar de sua alta eficácia, significativa proporção de pacientes recupera parte do peso perdido. Várias terapias endoscópicas foram introduzidas como alternativas para tratar o reganho de peso, mas a maioria dos artigos publicados tem amostra relativamente pequena, com dados pouco claros e de curto prazo. Objetivo: Avaliar sistematicamente a eficácia das terapias endoscópicas para reganho de peso pós-DGYR. Métodos: Foram realizadas buscas nas bases MEDLINE, EMBASE, Scopus, Web of Science, Cochrane, OVID, CINAHL/EBSCo, LILACS/Bireme e literatura cinzenta. Os desfechos primários avaliados foram perda absoluta de peso (PAP), perda de excesso de peso (PEP) e perda total de peso corporal (PPTP). Resultados: Trinta e dois estudos foram incluídos na análise qualitativa. Vinte e seis trabalhos envolvendo 1148 pacientes descreveram sutura endoscópica de espessura total (SET) e PAP, PEP e PPTP em 3 meses foram 8,5±2,9kg, 21,6±9,3% e 7,3±2,6%, respectivamente. Aos 6 meses, foram de 8,6±3,5kg, 23,7±12,3% e 8,0±3,9%. Aos 12 meses, 7,63±4,3kg, 16,9±11,1% e 6,6±5,0%. A análise de subgrupos mostrou melhores resultados no subgrupo submetido à coagulação com plasma de argônio (APC) prévio à SET (p < 0,0001). A metanálise incluindo 15 desses estudos mostrou resultados concordantes e confirmou a superioridade estatística da SET+APC em comparação à SET isolada. Três estudos descreveram sutura de espessura superficial (SEP) com PAP média de 3,0±3,8kg, 4,4±0,07kg e 3,7±7,4 kg em 3, 6 e 12 meses, respectivamente. No seguimento de curto, médio e longo prazo, a SET proporcionou resultados superiores em relação à SEP (p < 0,05). Dois artigos descreveram APC isolada com PAP média de 15,4±2,0 kg e 15,4±9,1kg em 3 e 6 meses. Nenhum estudo relatando escleroterapia satisfez os critérios de elegibilidade. Conclusões: A sutura de espessura total é efetiva no tratamento do reganho de peso pós-DGYR. A realização de APC antes da sutura parece resultar em maior perda de peso. Estudos comparativos são necessários para confirmar nossos resultados. A sutura de espessura total relaciona-se com melhores resultados em comparação à sutura de espessura superficial. Poucos estudos avaliam adequadamente a eficácia de outras técnicas endoscópicas / Introduction: Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (RYGB) is the most commonly performed bariatric procedure. Despite its high efficacy, some patients regain part of their lost weight. Several endoscopic therapies have been introduced as alternatives to treat weight regain but most of the articles are relatively small with unclear long-term data. Aim: To systematically assess the efficacy of endoscopic therapies for weight regain after RYGB. Methods: We searched MEDLINE, EMBASE, Scopus, Web of Science, Cochrane, OVID, CINAHL/EBSCo, LILACS/Bireme and gray literature. Primary outcomes were absolute weight loss (AWL), excess weight loss (EWL) and total body weight loss (TBWL). Results: Thirty-two studies were included in qualitative analysis. Twenty-six articles enrolling 1148 patients described fullthickness (FT) endoscopic suturing and pooled AWL, EWL and TBWL at 3 months were 8.5±2.9kgs, 21.6±9.3% and 7.3±2.6%, respectively. At 6 months, they were 8.6±3.5kg, 23.7±12.3% and 8.0±3.9%. At 12 months, they were 7.63±4.3kg, 16.9±11.1% and 6.6±5.0%. Subgroup analysis showed that all outcomes were significantly higher in the group with FT suturing combined with argon plasma coagulation (APC) (p < 0.0001). Meta-analysis including 15 FT studies showed greater results and confirmed the significant superiority of FT-APC compared to FT alone. Three studies described superficial-thickness suturing with pooled AWL of 3.0±3.8kg, 4.4±0.07kg and 3.7±7.4kg at 3, 6 and 12 months, respectively. At short, mid and long-term follow-up, FT suturing provided better outcomes compared to ST (p < 0.05). Two articles described APC alone with mean AWL of 15.4±2.0kg and 15.4±9.1kg at 3 and 6 months. No study describing sclerotherapy fulfilled eligibility criteria. Conclusions: Full-thickness suturing is effective at treating weight regain after RYGB. Performing APC prior to suturing seems to result in greater weight loss. Head-to-head studies are needed to confirm our results. Full-thickness suturing lead to greater outcomes compared to superficial thickness suturing. Few studies adequately assess effectiveness of other endoscopic techniques

O jejum regula diferencialmente a corticosterone binding globulin (CBG) plasmática, o receptor de glicocorticóide (GR) e proteínas que controlam a progressão do ciclo celular na mucosa gástrica de filhotes e ratos adultos / Fasting differentially regulates plasma corticosterone-binding globulin, glucocorticoid receptor and cell cycle in the gastric mucosa of pups and adult ratsDaniela Ogias 18 September 2009 (has links)
O estado nutricional influencia o crescimento gástrico, e enquanto a proliferação celular é estimulada pelo jejum em filhotes, ela é inibida em ratos adultos. A corticosterona também age no desenvolvimento, e seus efeitos são regulados pela corticosterone binding globulin (CBG) e receptores de glicocorticóides (GR). Para investigar se a atividade da corticosterona responde ao jejum e como possíveis mudanças poderiam controlar o ciclo celular epitelial gástrico, nós avaliamos diferentes parâmetros durante a progressão do jejum em ratos de 18 e 40 dias de vida pós-natal. A restrição alimentar induziu um aumento de corticosterona no plasma em ambas as idades, mas apenas em filhotes o binding da CBG se elevou após o jejum curto, permanecendo alto até o final do tratamento. O jejum aumentou a atividade transcricional do GR na mucosa gástrica e os níveis protéicos, porém o efeito foi mais pronunciado em adultos. Além disso, observamos que nos filhotes, o GR é principalmente citoplasmático, enquanto em animais adultos, o receptor é acumulado no núcleo durante o jejum. As proteínas HSP 70 e HSP 90 foram diferencialmente reguladas, e podem contribuir para a estabilidade do GR no citoplasma em filhotes, e para o trânsito de GR para o núcleo em animais adultos. Quanto ao ciclo celular epitelial, observamos que em filhotes, ciclina D1 e p21 aumentaram durante o jejum, enquanto em ratos adultos, a ciclina E diminuiu e a p27 aumentou muito. Assim, nós demonstramos que a atividade da corticosterona é diferencialmente regulada pelo jejum em filhotes e ratos adultos, e que as variaçõe observadas poderiam atenuar um possível efeito supressor durante o desenvolvimento pós-natal. Sugerimos que este mecanismo pode estimular a proliferação celular e possibilitar o crescimento da mucosa gástrica durante condições nutricionais adversas. / The nutritional status influences gastric growth, and interestingly, whereas cell proliferation is stimulated by fasting in suckling rats, it is inhibited in adult animals. Corticosterone takes part in the mechanisms that govern development, and its effects are regulated in particular by corticosterone binding globulin (CBG) and glucocorticoid receptor (GR). To investigate whether corticosterone activity responds to fasting and how possible changes might control gastric epithelial cell cycle, we evaluated different parameters during the progression of fasting in 18- and 40-d-old rats. Food restriction induced higher corticosterone plasma concentration at both ages, but only in pups did CBG binding increase after short and long-term treatments. Fasting also increased gastric GR at transcriptional and protein levels, but the effect was more pronounced in 40-d-old animals. Moreover, in pups, GR was observed in the cytoplasm, whereas in adults, it accumulated in the nucleus after the onset of fasting. HSP 70 and HSP 90 were differentially regulated, and might contribute to the stability of GR and to the high cytoplasmic levels in pups and elevated shuttling in adult rats. As for gastric epithelial cell cycle, whereas cyclin D1 and p21 increased during fasting in pups, in adults, cyclin E slowly decreased concomitant with higher p27. In summary, we demonstrated that corticosterone function is differentially regulated by fasting in 18- and 40-d-old rats, and such variation might attenuate any possible suppressive effects during postnatal development. We suggest that this mechanism could ultimately increase cell proliferation and allow regular gastric growth during adverse nutritional conditions.
