Context: After ingestion of phosphatidylcholine, l-carnitine or betaine, trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO) is formed by gut microbiota and liver enzymes. Elevated TMAO plasma levels were associated with increased cardiovascular risk and other diseases. Also betaine and choline itself were recently associated with increased cardiovascular risk.', 'A newly developed LC-HRMS method was applied to measure the plasma concentrations of TMAO, betaine and choline in a cohort of 339 patients undergoing coronary angiography for the evaluation of suspected coronary artery disease.', "Betaine concentrations in males were significantly higher than in females (42.0 vs. 35.9\xa0μmol/L; p\xa0<\xa00.001). Plasma concentrations of TMAO but not of betaine or choline were higher in patients with diabetes compared to euglycemic patients (2.39 vs. 0.980\xa0μmol/L; p\xa0=\xa00.001) as well as in patients with metabolic syndrome as compared to patients without metabolic syndrome (2.37 vs. 1.43\xa0μmol/L; p\xa0=\xa00.002). Plasma concentrations of TMAO or choline increased significantly with decreasing renal function (Spearman's rho:\xa0-0.281; p\xa0<\xa00.001). However, plasma levels of TMAO or betaine were associated with neither a history of myocardial infarction nor the angiographically assessed presence of coronary heart disease, nor incident cardiovascular events during 8 years of follow-up. Plasma levels of choline were significantly lower in patients with a history of acute myocardial infarction as compared to those without such history (10.0 vs. 10.8\xa0μmol/L; p\xa0=\xa00.045).
Answer: Plasma levels of TMAO are confounded by impaired kidney function and poor metabolic control but are not associated with the history, presence or incidence of symptoms or events of coronary heart disease.
Are plasma levels of trimethylamine-N-oxide confounded by impaired kidney function and poor metabolic control?

Context: This study had investigated the anti-inflammatory activity of a seed lectin (LAL) isolated from Lonchocarpus araripensis.', 'LAL was purified by affinity chromatography (chitin column) and ion exchange chromatography (DEAE-Sephacel). In vitro LAL was tested for hemagglutinating activity against rabbit erythrocytes. In vivo LAL was assessed for the anti-inflammatory activity via intravenous injection (i.v.) in Swiss mice (25-30 g; n = 6/group) in models of paw edema and peritonitis.', 'ANOVA (p < 0.05).', 'LAL revealed two bands of 30 and 60 kDa (SDS-PAGE) and exhibited hemagglutinating activity. LAL (10 mg/kg) inhibited the paw edema (77%) and vascular permeability (26%) induced by carrageenan, and the paw edema induced by serotonin (80%), bradykinin (49%), sodium nitroprusside (83%), TNF-α (75%) and PGE2 (64%). LAL also inhibited the neutrophil migration induced by fMLP (70%) or carrageenan (69%). The intravital microscopy showed that LAL inhibited rolling (83%) and adhesion (70%) of leukocytes. LAL anti-inflammatory effect was reversed by its association with N-acetyl-glucosamine. The nine-daily treatment with LAL (10 mg/kg; i.v.) showed no toxicity.
Answer: The novel N-acetyl-D-glucosamine-binding lectin isolated from L. araripensis seeds presents anti-inflammatory effect involving the lectin domain and the inhibition of 5-HT, BK, PGE2, NO, TNF-α and leukocyte rolling and adhesion.
Does a novel N-acetyl-glucosamine lectin of Lonchocarpus araripensis attenuate acute cellular inflammation in mice?

Context: Chlorophyllin (CHL) was proved to have strong anti-inducement effect toward many mutagens and epicarcinogens. This study was to explore effect of CHL in preventing colon neoplasms in mice induced by dimethylhydrazine (DMH), and the selective inhibition on cyclooxygenase 2(COX-2).', 'The colorectal neoplasms were induced with DMH in mice and the different dose of CHL were administered in different phases, then the prevention of colorectal neoplasms by CHL was examined; The IC50 and growth curve of HT29 cells were measured with MTT method after treated with CHL; The effect of CHL on the expression of COX-1 mRNA and COX-2 mRNA in HT29 cells were measured with RT-PCR method; The effect of CHL on the expression of COX-2 protein and NF-kappaB protein were measured with western blot and immunohistochemistry methods.', 'The incidence of colon cancer, average tumor amount, and percentage of carcinoma in CHL group were significantly lower than those in DMH group (P< .05); CHL could inhibit the growth of HT29 cells. The effects were dose dependent; CHL could selectively inhibit the expression of COX-2mRNA in HT29 cells,the expression of COX-2 protein in colon neoplasms and HT29 cells, and the expression of NF-kappaB protein in colon neoplasms.
Answer: CHL could prevent colon neoplasms in mice induced by DMH and the preventive effect related to selective inhibition on COX-2, furthermore, the inhibition of CHL on COX-2 was realized by inhibiting NF-kappaB protein.

Do [ CHL prevent colon neoplasms in mice and its selective inhibition on COX-2 ]?
