Role of brain inflammatory mediators in the restraint stress-induced elevation of plasma catecholamines

Potential Role of Cytokines in Children with Acute Appendicitis and Acute Mesenteric Lymphadenitis Although, AAP and AML have different etiological factors, clinical symptoms are very much similar but treatment tactics in both the disease differ a lot. In case of AML, treatment is more conservative and does not require hospitalization while in case of AAP immediate hospitalization and maybe further surgery can be mandatory. With the identification of group of cytokines serum inflammatory mediators IL-8, IL-10, IL-12[p70], IL-17, TNF-a and MCP-1, it is believed early and proper diagnosis of AAP in the near future. Research of cytokines-serum inflammatory mediators has opened new opportunities for an early detection and differentiation of these two diseases in children.

Response To Exercise

Adrenergic response to exercise and the relationships between plasma catecholamines and blood energetic substrates were studied in sedentary men after 15 h of fasting. Subjects pedaled a bicycle ergometer until exhaustion at a work load approximating 80% maximal oxygen consumption. Working ability was diminished by the fast (P less than 0.025). Resting plasma norepinephrine level was increased by fasting. During exercise plasma epinephrine (E) and norepinephrine (NE) concentrations were more elevated in fasting subjects than in fed subjects. Plasma catecholamine (CA) levels in fasting men correlated with blood glucose, blood lactate, and plasma glycerol concentrations. There was no significative correlation between CA and plasma free fatty acid (FFA) levels. The increased adrenergic activity in fasting subjects correlated with reduced endurance time. This study emphasizes the role of CA release, probably combined with other hormonal factors, in the mobilization of energy substrates during submaximal exercise.
