Transportadores de glicose na síndrome metabólica

A regulação da homeostasia intra e extra-celular da glicose está diretamente relacionada ao controle preciso da expressão dos genes que codificam as diferentes isoformas de proteínas transportadoras de glicose, as quais se expressam de maneira tecido-específica, em conseqüência do padrão de ativação dos fatores transcricionais reguladores de cada gene, em cada tipo celular. A síndrome metabólica (SM) abrange uma grande variedade de alterações fisiopatológicas, todas de repercussões sistêmicas, acometendo os mais distintos territórios do organismo, nos quais alterações nos transportadores de glicose presentes são observadas em maior ou menor grau. A presente revisão abordará as alterações na expressão de transportadores de glicose claramente demonstradas na literatura, cujas repercussões nos fluxos territoriais de glicose auxiliam na compreensão de mecanismos fisiopatológicos da SM, assim como dos tratamentos propostos para esta entidade.Intra- and extra-cellular glucose homeostasis is directly related to gene expression control of different isoforms, which encode different glucose transporters, being tissue-specifically expressed, as a consequence of transcriptional factors activity of each gene, in each cellular type. The metabolic syndrome (MS) comprises a wide range of physiopathological abnormalities, all involved in systemic changes, which occur in different territories of the body, where glucose transporters changes are observed in diverse degrees. The present review will describe the glucose transporters expression changes clearly shown in literature, which reflexes in glucose flow, and can facilitate the MS physiopathological understanding, as well as possible treatments for the syndrome

Study of binary self-assembled monolayers of a novel anchoring thiol (11-mercaptoundecyl-N′,N″,N‴-trimethylammonium) in the electron transfer with glucose oxidase enzyme

In this study, we explore the fabrication and properties of a sensing electrochemical platform that is based on a novel 11-mercaptoundecyl-N′,N″,N‴-trimethylammonium hexacyanoferrate (MAH) and 6-(ferrocenyl)hexanethiol (FT)/glucose oxidase (GOx) on gold substrate. The hexacyanoferrate and ferrocene moieties that were immobilized on the gold surface were examined as electron transfer mediators with the oxidase glucose. The sensing platform, based on 11-mercaptoundecyl-N′,N″,N‴-trimethylammonium hexacyanoferrate (MAH) and 6-(ferrocenyl)hexanethiol (FT)/GOx modified gold electrode, shows the potential to work with two distinct mechanisms for electrochemical response. The hexacyanoferrate anion that was anchored at positive edge charge of the 11-mercaptoundecyl-N′,N″,N‴-trimethylammonium on the gold surface provided an efficient electron transfer. It was demonstrated that in the design of the GOx/MAH, the FT/Au electrode is facilitating the electron transfer from GOx toward the gold substrate. We believe that this study adds a new facet to nanobioelectronics with applications for biofuels and sensorial platforms

Mild to moderate post-COVID-19 alters markers of lymphocyte activation, exhaustion, and immunometabolic responses that can be partially associated by physical activity level— an observational sub-analysis fit- COVID study

AimThis study aimed to evaluate if physical activity is associated with systemic and cellular immunometabolic responses, in young adults after mild-to-moderate COVID-19 infection.MethodsMild- to- moderate post-COVID-19 patients (70.50 ± 43.10 days of diagnosis; age: 29.4 (21.9– 34.9) years; BMI: 25.5 ± 4.3 kg m2 n = 20) and healthy age-matched controls (age: 29.3 (21.2 – 32.6) years; BMI: 25.4 ± 4.7 kg m2; n = 20) were evaluated. Physical activity levels (PAL), body composition, dietary habits, muscular and pulmonary function, mental health, sleep quality, metabolic parameters, immune phenotypic characterization, stimulated whole blood and PBMC culture (cytokine production), mRNA, and mitochondrial respiration in PBMCs were evaluated. ResultsThe post-COVID-19 group exhibited lower levels of moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA) (p = 0.038); therefore, all study comparisons were performed with adjustment for MVPA. Post-COVID-19 impacted the pulmonary function (FEV1, FEV1%pred, FVC, and FVC %pred) compared with the control (p adjusted by MVPA (p adj) <0.05). Post-COVID-19 exhibited lower levels of serum IL-6 (p adj <0.01), whereas it showed higher serum IL-10, triglyceride, leptin, IgG, ACE activity, TNFRSF1A, and PGE2 (p adj <0.05) levels compared with controls. Post-COVID-19 presented a lower percentage of Treg cells (p adj = 0.03) and altered markers of lymphocyte activation and exhaustion (lower CD28 expression in CD8+ T cells (p adj = 0.014), whereas CD4+T cells showed higher PD1 expression (p adj = 0.037)) compared with the control group. Finally, post- COVID-19 presented an increased LPS-stimulated whole- blood IL-10 concentration (p adj <0.01). When exploring mitochondrial respiration and gene expression in PBMCs, we observed a higher LEAK state value (p adj <0.01), lower OXPHOS activity (complex I) (p adj = 0.04), and expression of the Rev-Erb-α clock mRNA after LPS stimulation in the post-COVID-19 patients than in the control (p adj <0.01). Mainly, PAL was associated with changes in IL-10, triglyceride, and leptin levels in the plasma of post-COVID-19 patients. PAL was also associated with modulation of the peripheral frequency of Treg cells and the expression of PD-1 in CD8+ T cells, although it abrogated the statistical effect in the analysis of TNF-α and IL-6 production by LPS- and PMA-stimulated PBMC of post-COVID-19 patients. ConclusionYoung adults after mild-to-moderate SARS-CoV-2 infection appeared to have lower physical activity levels, which can be associated with clinical and immunometabolic responses in a complex manner
