The objective of the study is to show significance of desynchronosis laboratory markers in risk assessment of metabolic syndrome (MS) development. Materials and Methods. There were examined 98 men, aged 43-88, diagnosed with dyscirculatory encephalopathy showing one and more risk factors for development of cardiovascular diseases. They were divided into 2 groups according to the international guidelines of 2009: with MS (n = 61) and without MS (n = 37). Parameters of fats, glucose metabolism, inflammatory mediators, fat tissue metabolism markers, melatonin metabolite excretion (6-sulfatoxymelatonin) were defined in blood serum and urine. Results. The article presents data on changes in leptin, adiponectin, PAI-1, testosterone production and 6-sulfatoxymela-tonin excretion in patients with MS. There are calculated threshold values of these markers definitely increasing MS risk and logistic regression equation which allows assessing MS risk for an individual patient. Conclusion. Detected disorders of melatonin synthesis diurnal dynamics in patients with MS and interconnection between melatonin production and adiponectin, leptin, PAI-1, testosterone synthesis allow considering these parameters as desynchronosis markers significant for MS development.

AbstractBoar taint is an unpleasant odor in male pig meat, mainly caused by androstenone, skatole, and indole, which are deposited in the fat tissue. Piglet castration is the most common practice to prevent boar taint. However, castration is likely to be banished in a few years due to animal welfare concerns. Alternatives to castration, such as genetic selection, have been assessed. Androstenone and skatole have moderate to high heritability, which makes it feasible to select against these compounds. This review presents the latest results obtained on genetic selection against boar taint, on correlation with other traits, on differences in breeds, and on candidate genes related to boar taint. QTLs for androstenone and skatole have been reported mainly on chromosomes 6, 7, and 14. These chromosomes were reported to contain genes responsible for synthesis and degradation of androstenone and skatole. A myriad of work has been done to find markers or genes that can be used to select animals with lower boar taint. The selection against boar taint could decrease performance of some reproduction traits. However, a favorable response on production traits has been observed by selecting against boar taint. Selection results have shown that it is possible to reduce boar taint in few generations. In addition, modifications in diet and environment conditions could be associated with genetic selection to reduce boar taint. Nevertheless, costs to measure and select against boar taint should be rewarded with incentives from the market; otherwise, it would be difficult to implement genetic selection.

Subtype Differences

Liposarcoma (LPS) is an adult soft tissue malignancy that arises from fat tissue, where well-differentiated (WD) and dedifferentiated (DD) forms are the most common. DDLPS represents the progression of WDLPS into a more aggressive high-grade and metastatic form. Although a few DNA copy-number amplifications are known to be specifically found in WD- or DDLPS, systematic genetic differences that signify subtype determination between WDLPS and DDLPS remain unclear. Here, we profiled the genome and transcriptome of 38 LPS tumors to uncover the genetic signatures of subtype differences. Replication-dependent histone (RD-HIST) mRNAs were highly elevated and their regulation was disrupted in a subset of DDLPS, increasing cellular histone molecule levels, as measured using RNA-seq (the averaged fold change of 53 RD-HIST genes between the DD and WD samples was 10.9) and immunohistochemistry. The change was not observed in normal tissues. Integrated whole-exome sequencing, RNA-seq, and methylation analyses revealed that the overexpressed HMGA2 (the fold change between DD and WD samples was 7.3) was responsible for the increased RD-HIST level, leading to aberrant cell proliferation. Therefore, HMGA2-mediated elevation of RD-HISTs were crucial events in determining the aggressiveness of DDLPS, which may serve as a biomarker for prognosis prediction for liposarcoma patients.

Background: Breast cancer (BC) is the most common neoplasm in women. Many clinical and preclinical studies investigated the possible relationship between host metabolism and BC. Significant differences among BC subtypes have been reported for glucose metabolism. Insulin can promote tumorigenesis through a direct effect on epithelial tissues or indirectly by affecting the levels of other modulators, such as the insulin-like growth factor (IGF) family of receptors, sex hormones, and adipokines. The potential anti-cancer activity of metformin is based on two principal effects: first, its capacity for lowering circulating insulin levels with indirect endocrine effects that may impact on tumor cell proliferation; second, its direct influence on many pro-cancer signaling pathways that are key drivers of BC aggressiveness. Methods: In the present review, the interaction between BC, host metabolism, and patients’ prognosis has been reviewed across available literature evidence. Conclusions: Obesity, metabolic syndrome, and insulin resistance are all involved in BC growth and could have a relevant impact on prognosis. All these factors act through a pro-inflammatory state, mediated by cytokines originated in fat tissue, and seem to be related to a higher risk of BC development and worse prognosis.

Abstract Aim To study the influence of epicardial fat tissue (EFT) on atrial fibrillation (AF) occurrence in hypertensive patients. Materials and methods The study included 195 patients with hypertension aged from 38 to 72 years (mean age was 61.5±1.8 years). All patients were divided into two groups: group I included 95 hypertensive patients with paroxysmal AF; 100 patients with hypertension in sinus rhythm were enrolled into group II. Echocardiography was performed to evaluate the thickness of EFT in a parasternal long-axis view. The EFT volume was assessed with computed tomography (CT) scan. The plasma concentration of tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1) and metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) was measured to evaluate the myocardial fibrosis process. Results There was no significant difference between the studied groups of patients in body mass index: 34.43±1.2 kg/m2 in group I vs 31.97±1.67 kg/m2 in the group II. Waist circumference was significantly higher in group I in comparison with the group II patients: 118.9±3.3 cm vs 110.2±1.4 cm, respectively (p=0.038). EFT thickness was significantly higher in patients with paroxysmal AF (11.6±0.8 mm) in comparison with the patients in sinus rhythm (8.6±0.4 mm) (p<0.001). In group I patients a significant increase of EFT volume (4.6±0.4) in comparison with II group (3.5±0.25) (p=0.002) was noted. A significant positive correlation was revealed in hypertensive patients with paroxysmal AF between EFT volume and left atrial (LA) volume (r=0.7, p=0.022). Also, the plasma concentrations of TIMP-1 and MMP-1 were significantly higher in patients with paroxysmal AF and hypertension. There was a strong positive correlation between EFT volume and plasma concentration of TIMP-1 (r=0.72; p=0.01) and between the EFT volume and the LA volume (r=0.7, p=0.022) in group I patients. Multivariate regression analysis revealed the significant influence of increased EFT thickness more than 10 mm (prevalence ratio (PR) 4.1; 95% CI 1.1; 15.6) and EFT volume more than 6 ml (PR 3.7; 95% CI 1.0; 14.2) on AF occurrence. Conclusion Increased EFT thickness (more than 10 mm) and EFT volume (more than 6 ml) are predictors of AF onset in hypertensive patients.
