Question: Pathologic change in Alzheimer disease (AD) begins some years before symptoms. MRS has the potential to detect metabolic abnormalities reflecting this early pathologic change. Presenilin 1 (PS1) and amyloid precursor protein (APP) mutation carriers have a nearly 100% risk of developing AD and may be studied prior to symptom onset.', 'Short echo time proton MR spectra were acquired from a midline posterior cingulate voxel in presymptomatic carriers of PS1 or APP mutations ("presymptomatic mutation carriers" [PMCs]; n = 7) and age- and sex-matched control subjects (n = 6). Ratios of N-acetyl aspartate (NAA), myo-inositol (MI), and choline-containing compounds (Cho) to creatine (Cr) were measured and NAA/MI calculated. Regression analyses and t tests were performed after log transformation.', 'PMC and control subjects were matched for age and sex. PMC subjects were 1.7 to 21.6 years (mean 9.8 years) before expected symptom onset, predicted from family-specific mean age at onset. Age did not significantly affect metabolite ratios. Geometric mean ratios in control subjects were as follows: NAA/Cr = 1.75, MI/Cr = 0.59, and NAA/MI = 2.95. NAA/Cr and NAA/MI were significantly reduced in PMC relative to controls (NAA/Cr mean decrease 10% [95% CI 2 to 18%]; NAA/MI mean decrease 25% [95% CI 3 to 44%]). MI/Cr was increased in PMC, but the differences did not achieve significance (19% increase [95% CI 1% decrease to 41% increase]; p = 0.07)). In PMCs, reduction in NAA/MI (p = 0.001) and MI/Cr (p = 0.002) were related to proximity of expected age at onset.

Answer: Does mRS show abnormalities before symptoms in familial Alzheimer disease?

Question: Tumour cells alter the characteristics of the adjacent stroma to create a supportive microenvironment during cancer progression. In vitro and in vivo experiments were carried out to verify the role of stromal TGF-1 in reinforcing of the invasive potential in low invasive cancer.', 'Isolated NF or CAF was co-cultured with low invasive HSC-2 cells to evaluate whether stromal TGF-1 induced PDPN expression by Transwell invasion and influenced tumour growth in orthotopic xenografts.', 'Stimulation by TGF-1 promoted PDPN expression and Transwell invasion through SMAD signalling as well as activation of Src, P38 mitogen activated protein kinase and extracellular regulated kinase 1/2. PDPN induction was TRII-dependent. Tumour growth of HSC-2 OSCC in a mouse xenograft was intensified in the tumour CAF microenvironment.

Answer: Is stromal transforming growth factor-beta 1 crucial for reinforcing the invasive potential of low invasive cancer?

Question: Results of many studies show that apolipoprotein B (apo B) is a better marker of risk of vascular disease than other lipid markers including LDL and HDL-cholesterol and triglycerides. We investigated the association between two infectious agents: C. pneumoniae and H. pylori, known to have an atherogenic effect, and apo B, to evaluate the effects of chronic infections on apo B levels.', 'The study group consisted of 257 patients in whom diagnostic coronary angiography was performed. C. pneumoniae IgG and IgM and H. pylori IgG and IgA antibodies were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and apo B levels were measured by the nephelometry method. Established risk factors of atherosclerosis were recorded. Of 257 patients recruited, 104 had normal vessels, 88 had 3 or more vessels obstructed and 65 had ectatic vessels without atherosclerosis. Mean apo B concentration was significantly higher in C. pneumoniae IgG and IgM positive healthy subjects compared with C. pneumoniae negatives (0.954 vs. 0.722 and 0.973 vs. 0.851, p < 0.001 and p = 0.007, respectively). Apo B levels were significantly higher in severe atherosclerotic patients (0.985 +/- 0.234 g/l) compared with control subjects (0.892 +/- 0.244 g/l) (p = 0.008), but the difference was not significant in ectatic subjects (0.946 +/- 0.272 g/l) when compared with controls (p = 0.18). Apo B levels were higher but not statistically significant in H. pylori antibody positive cases when compared with negatives.

Answer:
Is infection with Chlamydia pneumoniae but not Helicobacter pylori related to elevated apolipoprotein B levels?
