question:
Context: The gene p8 was initially described in pancreatic tissue during acute experimental pancreatitis, a disease that is characterized by a systemic immune response. Although early reports suggested that p8 affects leukocyte migration during acute pancreatitis (AP), no studies revealing its immune-modulatory effects have been performed.', 'We investigated the composition of the cellular immune system in naive p8 knockout (p8(−/−)) mice and compared with matched wild-type mice during pancreatitis.', 'In young mice, there were no relevant differences in the composition of peripheral and splenic CD3(+), CD3(+)CD4(+), CD3(+)CD8(+), CD11b(+)Gr-1(-), and Gr-1 cells. In mature p8(−/−) mice, increased splenic CD4CD25FoxP3 cells, spleen siderosis, and increased marginal zones in the splenic white pulp were found. During AP, peripheral and splenic CD3(+) and CD3CD4 declined stronger in the p8(−/−) mice. The spleen of the p8(−/−) mice showed severe hypoplasia of the white pulp and mild hyperplasia of the red pulp. This was associated with a significantly increased rate of apoptosis.
Answer: We conclude that p8 has no impact on the cellular composition of the adaptive and innate immune systems in noninflammatory conditions. However, it may limit apoptosis and maintain homeostasis of the immune reaction during AP.
answer:
Does p8 Deficiency cause siderosis in spleens and lymphocyte apoptosis in acute pancreatitis?


question:
Context: The ADAMTS13-von Willebrand factor (vWF) axis has been suggested to play a critical role in the pathophysiology of ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) in the heart or brain. Therefore, we aimed to investigate whether this axis was involved in the pathophysiology of IRI-induced acute kidney injury.', 'We performed renal IRI in ADAMTS13 knockout (KO) or wild type (WT) mice. Functional and histological kidney damage, and inflammation were compared and the effect of anti-vWF antibodies in ADAMTS13 KO mice was assessed.', 'Following IRI, the blood and kidney ADAMTS13 levels were significantly decreased. vWF expression was significantly upregulated in both the medulla and cortex of injured kidneys as shown by immunohistochemistry and western blot analyses. There was also an increased level of vWF dimers after IRI. In ADAMTS13 KO mice, kidney vWF levels were further increased and this was associated with greater endothelial and epithelial injury compared to WT mice, suggesting an important role of vWF in renal IRI. In addition, the number of Gr-1
Answer: Our data show that the ADAMTS13-vWF axis is partially involved in the pathophysiology of kidney IR, suggesting that regulating ADAMTS13- and vWF-dependent mechanisms could have therapeutic potential to limit renal IRI. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
answer:
Is the ADAMTS13-von Willebrand factor axis involved in the pathophysiology of kidney ischemia-reperfusion injury?


question:
Context: Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) has been advocated as a therapy to improve neurological recovery after ischemia, since HBO may improve tissue oxygen delivery. We examined the effect of HBO treatment after global cerebral ischemia on early brain injury.', 'Rabbits were subjected to 10 minutes of global cerebral ischemia by cerebrospinal fluid compression. After 30 minutes of reperfusion, rabbits either were subjected to HBO for 125 minutes and then breathed 100% O2 at ambient pressure for 90 minutes or breathed 100% O2 for 215 minutes. At the end of reperfusion and 90 minutes after exposure, brain vascular permeability and cerebral blood flow were measured. Somatosensory evoked potentials were monitored throughout the experiment.', 'HBO treatment reduced (P < .05) brain vascular permeability by 16% in gray matter and by 20% in white matter. Cerebral blood flow was lower (P < .05) in the HBO group (40.9 +/- 1.9 mL/min per 100 g, mean +/- SEM) compared with controls (50.8 +/- 2.0 mL/min per 100 g). Somatosensory evoked potential recovery was similar in the two groups (P > .05).
Answer: HBO administered after global cerebral ischemia promoted blood-brain barrier integrity. HBO treatment also reduced cerebral blood flow; this effect was not associated with a reduction in evoked potential recovery. Since neurological outcome after global cerebral ischemia is generally poor and treatment options are limited, HBO should be further investigated as a potential therapy.
answer:

Does hyperbaric oxygen after global cerebral ischemia in rabbits reduce brain vascular permeability and blood flow?
