Diet Induced Steatohepatitis

Filed under: Uncategorized — admin @ 2:10 am

"Methionine and choline-deficient diet-induced steatohepatitis"

Pro-oxidant-mediated hepatic fibrosis and effects of
antioxidant intervention in murine dietary steatohepatitis.
Int J Mol Med. 2009 Aug;24(2):171-80.
Phung N, Pera N, Farrell G, Leclercq I, Hou JY, George J.
Storr Liver Unit, Westmead Millennium Institute,
University of Sydney at Westmead Hospital,
Westmead, NSW 2145, Australia.

The mechanistic significance of oxidative stress to
fibrogenesis in the methionine and choline-deficient
(MCD) diet-induced model of steatohepatitis was
evaluated by antioxidant intervention, using either
vitamin E or L-2-oxothiazolidine-4-carboxylate (OTC),
a cysteine precursor that promotes glutathione synthesis.
Significant depletion of hepatic reduced glutathione (GSH)
and elevation of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances
(TBARS) occurred from week 3 in association with hepatic
injury in mice fed the MCD diet.
Hepatic stellate cell (HSC) activation and increased
collagen alpha1(I) mRNA expression, together with
morphologic fibrosis were evident from week 5.
Vitamin E repleted GSH, reduced TBARS, steatosis,
inflammation, HSC activation and collagen alpha1(I) mRNA
expression, and ameliorated fibrosis.
Vitamin E did not effect the expression of either profibrogenic
cytokines (transforming growth factor-beta 1, connective tissue
growth factor) or matrix remodeling enzymes (tissue inhibitor
of metalloproteinase-1 and -2, matrix metalloproteinase-2 and -13).
Despite repletion of hepatic GSH in OTC-supplemented mice, the
initial benefit in the reduction of hepatic TBARS and inhibition
of collagen alpha1(I) mRNA expression at week 5, failed to protect
these mice from hepatic injury or fibrosis at later time points.
Oxidative stress or products of lipid peroxidation mediate HSC
activation and collagen gene expression directly in the MCD model
of steatohepatitis.
Vitamin E but not glutathione augmentation can interrupt this
pathogenic process.

Daily Spirit-guided WDJW health tip for 07/24/09

Filed under: Uncategorized — admin @ 2:09 am

It is when we are thinking and doing things that are kind, just, and
right, that we become healthier (hungrier) than ever.

"The lot is cast into the lap,  but its every decision is from the
LORD." (Proverbs 16:33)

Amen.

May dear neighbors, friends, and brethren have a blessedly wonderful
2009th year since the birth of our LORD Jesus Christ as our Messiah,
the Son of Man …

… by being hungrier:

http://groups.google.com/group/sci.med.cardiology/msg/f891e617d10bd689?

Hunger is wonderful ! ! !

It’s how we know the answer to the question "What does Jesus
want?" (WDJW):

http://WDJW.net

Yes, hunger is our knowledge of good versus evil that Adam and Eve
paid for with their and our immortal lives:

http://groups.google.com/group/sci.med.cardiology/msg/52a3db8576495806?

Hunger is the physical "hearts burning within us" feeling that unlocks
the 4 mysteries of the "Road to Emmaus" adventure described in Luke
24:

http://groups.google.com/group/sci.med.cardiology/msg/386f56c2f6d0b154?

Moreover, being hungrier is the key to being Jesus’ disciples:

http://groups.google.com/group/sci.med.cardiology/msg/bd20d7c4fe878897?

Being physically hungrier is how we will physically recognize Jesus
when He physically returns for us to meet Him physically in the air:

http://groups.google.com/group/sci.med.cardiology/msg/ffa6609710ea9587?

"Blessed are you who hunger NOW…

… for you will be satisfied." — LORD Jesus Christ (Luke 6:21)

Amen.

Here is a Spirit-guided exegesis of Luke 6:21 given in hopes of
promoting much greater understanding:

http://groups.google.com/group/sci.med.cardiology/msg/cc2aa8f8a4d41360?

Jesus is LORD, forever !!!

Podcast interview re health care reform w/ Wendell Potter

Filed under: Uncategorized — admin @ 2:08 am

Posted this morning at Electric Politics, an interview on health care
reform with Wendell Potter. Until recently Wendell was Vice President
for Public Affairs at Cigna, one of the largest health insurance
corporations. But Wendell had a conversion experience and now puts his
considerable talents and energy into the struggle for genuine reform.
He’s recently testified before the Senate, was on Bill Moyers two
weeks ago, has been interviewed by Amy Goodman, and generally has been
rearranging the battlefield! At Electric Politics he further explores
some of his original ideas.

Spina Bifida And Latex

Filed under: Uncategorized — admin @ 2:07 am

"Loading cells with Fe-D increased their response to latex"

Years ago a guy wondered if his iron overload had anything to do with
his
spina .. bifida.

"Up to 73% of children and adolescents with Spina Bifida are sensitive
to latex"

Iron uptake and release by macrophages is sensitive to propranolol.
Mol Cell Biochem. 2006 Aug;288(1-2):213-7. Epub 2006 May 23.

Molecular Biology, The George Washington University Medical Center,
2300 Eye St., NW, Ross Hall, Rm. 441A, Washington, DC 20037,
USA. phy…@gwumc.edu

In this study we have tested the effects of d-propranolol (D-Pro) on
the iron uptake, iron release and oxidative response of iron-loaded
cells
in a cellular model of iron-overload using isolated rat peritoneal
macrophages incubated with iron-dextran (Fe-D).
Pretreatment of macrophages with D-Pro (5-200 microM) prior to Fe-D
exposure decreased the cellular iron content and partially prevented
iron release from latex-activated macrophages.
Release of reactive oxygen species from activated cells was detected
by dichlorodihydrofluorescein (DCDHF, 5 microM) oxidation.
We found that loading cells with Fe-D increased their response to
latex, which was prevented by the lysosomotropic antioxidant agent D-
Pro
(10 microM).

Scientists Make Gut-Brain Connection To Autism

Filed under: Uncategorized — admin @ 12:58 pm

http://www.cbc.ca/health/story/2007/09/27/autism-study.html

Scientists make gut-brain connection to autism
Last Updated: Thursday, September 27, 2007 | 5:29 PM ET
CBC News

Compounds produced in the digestive system have been linked to
autistic-type behaviour in laboratory settings, potentially
demonstrating that what autistic children eat can alter their brain
function, say scientists from the University of Western Ontario.

They announced their findings Thursday in Ottawa.

Scientists are learning that the brain and body can influence each
other, says a Harvard researcher.
(CBC) UWO researchers investigated the "gut-brain" connection after
many parents of autistic children reported significant improvements in
the behaviour of their autistic children when they modified their
diet, eliminating dairy and wheat products, Dr. Derrick MacFabe, the
director of a research group at UWO in London, Ont., told CBC News
Thursday.

Researchers were particularly interested in one dietary characteristic
the autistic children seemed to exhibit, he said.

"Certainly, a lot of these children had peculiar cravings for high-
carbohydrate foods that caused their behaviours," he said.

"We were interested in finding a link between certain compounds that
are produced by bacteria in the digestive system — particularly those
occurring with early childhood infections."

The bacteria produce propionic acid, a short chain fatty acid, which
in addition to existing in the gut, is commonly found in bread and
dairy products, MacFabe said.

To test their hypothesis that diet plays a part in generating autistic
behaviour, UWO scientists administered the compound to rats’ brains.

"They immediately engaged in bouts of repetitive behaviour,
hyperactivity and impaired social behaviours which had close
similarity to what parents are seeing with autism," MacFabe said.

When the rats’ brains were examined later, they were found to have
inflammatory processes similar to those in the brains of autistic
children, he said.

"We found, looking at the rats’ brains under the microscope, changes
that looked a lot like what’s occurred from autopsy cases of patients
who had autism."

It’s remarkable that a simple compound like propionic acid would have
such a dramatic effect on "normal" animals, he said.

MacFabe said his research team, and scientists at Queen’s University
in Kingston, Ont., and Harvard University, are now conducting
screening studies looking at effects of dietary changes in the general
population.

New way of approaching autism

Dr. Martha Herbert, assistant professor in neurology at Harvard
Medical School, told CBC News that the study opens up a new way of
thinking about the disorder.

"Now we’re learning that the brain and body can influence each other,"
she said.

Autistic children are increasingly being seen as "oversensitized,"
meaning "things may bother them that don’t bother other people," she
said. "We need to pay attention to this."

Treating a child’s health should be the first step in addressing
autism, Herbert said, rather than solely focusing on behavioural
therapy, currently a mainline approach.

"Behaviour therapy is certainly important. But the child’s health
controls the bandwidth that the child has for being able to benefit
from behavioural therapy. If a child is sick, they won’t be able to
focus."

Parents should watch their children closely to determine what foods
trigger reactions and to consider removing those triggers, she said.

Herbert strongly advocates a balanced diet, consisting of all food
groups, not just "bread and cheese."

"If you have foods that child is sensitive to in their immune system,
that can set up processes that can impact brain function, and it can
do so in a negative way. And if you remove those foods, that negative
impact can stop."

Not WHY Is There Suffering, But WHO Causes It – Is The Question – {HRI 20030610-V1.1}

Filed under: Uncategorized — admin @ 12:57 pm

Not WHY Is There Suffering, But WHO Causes It – Is The Question

                                                        10 June 2003
                                                  {HRI 20030610-V1.1}

                                                        (Version 1.1
                                                     on 23 July 2009)

                                                   (basic philosophy
                                                             courses)


                                                       (taken from a
                                                     personal letter)

            As regards protecting these things, it is not a
            question of ‘WHY would certain individuals want to
            destroy the happiness and awareness of others.’

            The question is not why they would want to – and
            why they do – throw ‘mud’ into the eyes of others.

            I would like you to understand that, because posing
            THAT question PREVENTS understanding them – how
            strange and illogical that might seem at first glance.

            People have been asking that question for ages, and
            it never has gotten them to understand those
            individuals who want to harm life.

            Others wrote songs about it: ‘Why is there suffering
            in the world?’
            And so on, etc. etc. etc. – never remedying anything.

            The question itself is incorrect, and does not lead
            to an answer, and has never given an answer –
            meaning, to ask the question ‘Why do they want to
            harm life?’ has never given a proper remedy, quite
            the contrary.

            That question

                 - because you think you are, of course, asking
                   the right question, when you say ‘Why do they
                   want to harm life?’ –

            is making you not look for a question that would
            actually start to remedy and solve things.

            So the first question that starts to solve things, is

                      ‘WHO does and did want to diminish and
                       hinder the happiness of others?’

            That question solves many, many things – if you get
            the answer right, of course. It is a very powerful
            question.

            The next question, is

                      ‘HOW do such individuals manage to diminish
                       and hinder the happiness of others?’

            And that question gets you to be able to defend
            yourself and others against them – also, of course,
            the better, the more correct your answers are.

            And then there is still the question,

                      ‘WHEN and WHERE did and do these individuals
                       hit others with Energies to harm and to make
                       people unaware, etc.?’

            As you can see, the question ‘Why do they want to?’
            does not occur, and also, asking it does not remedy
            anything, as I will explain:

                  If you find out "why they want to," they still
                  do not stop.

                  There is nothing that you can do to satisfy them

                        – other than doing what they want, which
                          is to be unhappy and unaware and dead,

                              if possible while you do not detect
                              them at all, but instead regard them
                              as "your very best friends."

                  Such is the nature of those individuals.

                        And even when you ARE unhappy and unaware
                        and dead, they still continue to want it,

                              not only for you but also for others,
                              and

                              they want to make it more permanent,
                              and

                              they want to be more undetectable
                              and less understood,

                        and so on and so on – more and more and
                        more and more evil, forever.

           ’Understanding why they want others to be unhappy’
            does not remedy anything. Do you see?

                  In fact they use that, that "You do not
                  understand them," to prevent you from asking the
                  correct questions.

                  They do not want to be understood, so that they
                  can more easily continue what they do.

            But ‘WHO does and did want to diminish and hinder the
            happiness of others?’ remedies things very strongly.

           ’HOW do such individuals manage to diminish and
            hinder the happiness of others?’ remedies things more
            permanently and secures and safeguards things, and
            people, further.

            And when you ask ‘WHEN and WHERE did and do these
            individuals hit others with Energies to harm and to
            make people unaware?’ then you can remove damage and
            destruction and blocks

                  – ‘mud,’ Energies that block life, that hinder
                    connecting and being together and seeing and
                    feeling each other –

            that have been put there in the past by them.

            Now this may be not a pleasant subject, and it may be
            painful to think of such individuals, and of the
            Energies they have inflicted,

                  but it is much less painful and much more
                  pleasant to know about it, than to not know
                  about it.

Vitargo S2 Review From GENR8 – By Fit Jerk

Filed under: Uncategorized — admin @ 12:57 pm

Hype & Bullshit… 2 of the biggest concepts that power the supplement
industry to profit-soaring success. But GENR8 on the other hand, is a
little bit different. Not only do they reference studies… But they
reference studies done on their actual product – Vitargo S2. On top of
that, the President of GENR8 happily made the .pdf versions of these
studies available to me. Interesting.

But everyone knows that studies are ONE thing and REAL WORLD RESULTS
are quite another. Did Vitargo stack up? Find out:
