- Depression-like behavior in subclinical hypothyroidism rat induced by hemi-thyroid electrocauterization.
- Ge JF1, Peng YY, Qi CC, Chen FH, Zhou JN.Author information 1School of Pharmacy, Anhui Medical University, Hefei, 230032, Anhui, China.AbstractThe purpose of this study was to investigate the depression-like behavior performances of subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH) rat. SCH rat model was induced by hemi-thyroid electrocauterization, and the behavior performances were measured by sucrose preference test, force swimming test (FST), and tail suspension test (TST). SCH rat model was established successfully by hemi-thyroid electrocauterization. In the behavior tasks, SCH rats displayed depression-like behavior were indicated as a significant elevation of immobility time in both the TST and FST, though the sucrose preference was not significantly decreased. The index of left adrenal cortex in both SCH and clinical hypothyroidism (CH) group significantly increased, and many large lipid vacuoles were observed in the zona fasciculata cells. The serum corticosterone concentration and hypothalamic corticotropin-releasing hormone mRNA expression 2 h after behavior test was markedly up-regulated in CH rats, but not SCH rats, indicated that SCH induced a less impairment of HPA axis than CH did. The important finding of this study was that the concentration of hippocampal T3 was lower in SCH group than that of the sham group. Furthermore, the results of Pearson correlation test showed that the immobility behaviors in TST and FST were both negatively correlated with hippocampal T3 concentration. Taking together, our results indicated that SCH could result in depression-like behavior, accompanied with subtle hyperactivity of HPA axis. The reduced hippocampal T3 prior to the reduction of thyroid hormone in serum might be taken as an early sign of hippocampus impairment in the progression from SCH to CH.

- Isoform-specific monoclonal antibodies against 3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase/isomerase family provide markers for subclassification of human primary aldosteronism.
- Doi M1, Satoh F, Maekawa T, Nakamura Y, Fustin JM, Tainaka M, Hotta Y, Takahashi Y, Morimoto R, Takase K, Ito S, Sasano H, Okamura H.Author information 1Department of Systems Biology (M.D., J.-M.F., M.T., Y.H., Y.T., H.O.), Graduate School of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Kyoto University, Sakyo-ku, Kyoto 606-8501, Japan; and Departments of Medicine (F.S., R.M., S.I.), Pathology (T.M., Y.N., H.S.), and Radiology (K.T.), Division of Nephrology, Endocrinology, and Vascular Medicine, Tohoku University Hospital, Sendai 980-8574, Japan.AbstractContext: Therapeutic management of primary aldosteronism requires accurate differentiation between aldosterone-producing adenoma (APA) and idiopathic hyperaldosteronism (IHA). However, little is known about the molecular features that delineate the difference between APA and IHA. Two different isoforms of 3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (HSD3B1 and HSD3B2) are thought to be expressed in the human adrenal gland, but the lack of isoform-specific antibody has so far hampered mapping of these isoforms in APA and IHA. Objectives: The aim of our study is to develop and characterize isoform-specific monoclonal antibodies against HSD3B1 and HSD3B2. Using these antibodies, we determined for the first time the immunolocalization of HSD3B1 and HSD3B2 in normal human adrenal cortex as well as in adrenal specimens from APA and IHA. Results: Immunohistochemical analysis with isoform-specific antibodies revealed zone-specific expression of HSD3B1 and HSD3B2 in the adrenal cortex. HSD3B1 immunoreactivities were essentially confined to the zona glomerulosa (ZG), in which aldosterone is produced. In contrast, HSD3B2 was not confined to the ZG but was found across the zona fasciculata, which is where cortisol is produced. Moreover, immunohistopathological analysis of primary aldosteronism revealed a previously uncharacterized difference between APA and IHA. Notably, hyperplasia of ZG seen for IHA was accompanied by a robust expression of ZG isoform HSD3B1. In contrast, tumor cells in APA were not immunopositive to HSD3B1. Rather, a strong and dominant expression of HSD3B2 characterized APA. Moreover, perhaps due to compensatory responses to excess aldosterone, APA had an adjacent ZG whose immunoreactivities to HSD3B1 and HSD3B2 were profoundly reduced. Conclusions: Isoform-specific monoclonal antibodies against HSD3B1 and HSD3B2 may be of great value for immunohistochemical differentiation between APA and IHA.

- Perinatal exposure to low-dose bisphenol A affects the neuroendocrine stress response in rats.
- Panagiotidou E1, Zerva S, Mitsiou DJ, Alexis MN, Kitraki E.Author information 1Department of Basic Sciences and Oral Biology, School of Dentistry, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, Thivon 2, 11527 Athens, Greece Institute of Biology, Medicinal Chemistry and Biotechnology, National Hellenic Research Foundation, 48, Vassileos Constantinou Avenue, 11635 Athens, Greece.AbstractBisphenol A (BPA) is an estrogen-mimicking endocrine disruptor. Early-life exposures to low doses of BPA exert long-lasting effects on animals' reproductive and brain physiology. However, little is known about the effects of BPA on the stress-response system. Given the interaction of sex and stress hormones, we examined the effect of a low perinatal BPA exposure on the function of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis at rest and upon application of acute stress. Throughout pregnancy and lactation rats received daily 40 μg BPA/kg body weight orally via cornflakes. We studied the effect of this low but chronic exposure to BPA in the male and female offspring at puberty. BPA exposure led to abnormal adrenal histology including reduced zona reticularis especially in male offspring, hyperplasia of zona fasciculata in both sexes, and increased adrenal weight in female offspring. BPA-treated females had increased basal corticosterone and reduced hypothalamic glucocorticoid receptors (GR) levels. Stressed BPA-exposed females exhibited anxiety-like behavioral coping, a less rigorous corticosterone response, and did not downregulate GR in the hypothalamus, compared with control females. BPA-exposed males exhibited a heightened corticosterone stress response compared with females; they also displayed increased pro-opiomelanocortin mRNA levels and retained the prestress levels of pituitary corticotropin-releasing hormone-receptor 1, compared with control males. We found that perinatal chronic exposure to a low dose of BPA perturbs the basal and stress-induced activity of the HPA axis in a sexually dimorphic manner at adolescence. Exposure to BPA might contribute to increased susceptibility to stress-related disorders in later life.
