[Q]: Context: Side effects of mitotane (o,p'-DDD) have suggested estrogenic effects.", "The objective of the study was to explore o,p'-DDD potential estrogenic effect on SHBG and corticosteroid-binding globulin (CBG).", 'Human hepatoma cell lines (HepG2), lacking estrogen receptor (ER)-alpha, and Hep89, stably transfected by ERalpha, were used.', 'The study was conducted at an academic research laboratory and medical center.', 'The study included 10 male patients with recurrent adrenal carcinoma, receiving mitotane (4-6.5 g daily) for more than 6 months.', 'The main outcome measures were SHBG/CBG mRNA levels measured by real-time PCR, culture medium SHBG/CBG concentrations measured by specific immunoassays, and transient transfection experiments with human SHBG proximal promoter reporter constructs.', "Increased serum SHBG and CBG concentrations, which exceeded normal male limits, were observed in most mitotane-treated patients. In the HepG2 cell line, 17beta-estradiol (E2) or o,p'-DDD treatment had no effect on mRNA or SHBG/CBG concentrations. In contrast, in the Hep89 cell line, E2 increased concentrations of SHBG (r = 0.44, P < 0.0001) and CBG (r = 0.585, P < 0.0001) secreted into culture media in a dose-dependent manner. o,p'-DDD significantly increased SHBG (150% vs. control, P < 0.05) and CBG (184% vs. control, P < 0.05) production by Hep89 cells, at a concentration of 2 x 10(-5) m. Transient transfection experiments in Hep89 cells showed that E2 or o,p'-DDD treatment did not increase the transcriptional activity of the minimal proximal promoter of human SHBG gene.
Answer: Mitotane increased SHBG/CBG gene expression and liver production by mechanisms requiring the presence of ERalpha.

[Q]: Context: Cirrhosis, or liver fibrosis, which is mainly triggered by cirrhosis fat-storing cells (CFSCs) activation, has traditionally been considered an irreversible disease. However, recent observations indicate that even advanced fibrosis is still reversible by removing the causative agents. Anti-fibrotic effects of bone marrow-derived stromal cells (BMSCs) have been demonstrated by inhibiting CFSCs via cytokines secretion; however, the mechanisms are still unclear.', 'The purpose of this study was to explore the underlying mechanisms by which BMSCs modulate the function of activated CFSCs.', 'After the co-culture of CFSCs with BMSCs supernatants with or without the addition of recombinant rat adrenomedullin (AM)/AM-specific siRNA, western blot analysis was mainly used to detect the differences of relative protein expression on CFSCs.', 'BMSC-secreted adrenomedullin (AM) effectively inhibited the proliferation and activation of CFSCs by suppressing the expression of Ang II and its binding receptor, AT1, which resulted in a reduction of p47-phox formation.
Answer: Our data suggested that BMSCs inhibited CFSC activation in vitro via the AM-Ang II-p47-phox signaling pathway, and since CFSC activation is an essential part of hepatic fibrosis process, this inhibition by BMSCs implies us new insights into the potential treatment of hepatic fibrosis via BMSCs.

[Q]: Context: Glucocorticoids (GCs), including the synthetic GC derivate dexamethasone, are widely used as immunomodulators. One of the numerous side effects of dexamethasone therapy is hypertension arising from reduced release of the endothelium-derived vasodilator nitric oxide (NO).', 'Herein, we described the role of dexamethasone and its glucocorticoid receptor (GR) in the regulation of NO synthesis in vitro using the mouse myocardial microvascular endothelial cell line, MyEND. GC treatment caused a firm decrease of extracellular NO levels, whereas the expression of endothelial NO synthase (eNOS) was not affected. However, GC application induced an impairment of tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4 ) concentrations as well as GTP cyclohydrolase-1 (GTPCH-1) expression, both essential factors for NO production upstream of eNOS. Moreover, dexamethasone stimulation resulted in a substantially decreased GR gene and protein expression in MyEND cells. Importantly, inhibition of proteasome-mediated proteolysis of the GR or overexpression of an ubiquitination-defective GR construct improved the bioavailability of BH4 and strengthened GTPCH-1 expression and eNOS activity.
Answer: Summarising our results, we propose a new mechanism involved in the regulation of NO signalling by GCs in myocardial endothelial cells. We suggest that a sufficient GR protein expression plays a crucial role for the management of GC-induced harmful adverse effects, including deregulations of vasorelaxation arising from disturbed NO biosynthesis.
