Abstract

BACKGROUND: Corticosterone is a common hormone in research involving rodents as it is used to indicate and measure stress levels. It was widely reported that certain dietary habits and components induce Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenal (HPA) axis activity, with corticosterone found in the bloodstream. Chronic corticosterone presence can portray signs and symptoms of certain endocrine. Certain food and chemicals were found to alter HPA axis activity leading to dysregulation of the HPA axis. Earlier studies have shown enhancement of the HPA axis to produce more glucocorticoids by an unbalanced diet. This study aims to shed more light on this subject.METHODS: Sprague Dawley rats were divided into five groups of seven each and were fed five respective diets (control, high-fat, high-protein, high-sugar, and high-starch), with tap water as drinking water ad libitum. After eight weeks, the rats were euthanized, blood was collected, and serum harvested and kept for analysis. Mesenteric fat was identified, harvested, and stained with hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) and set for viewing under light microscope. The hormones of interest which is adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) and corticosterone was extracted from the blood, to be processed accordingly and quantified using the High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) with photodiode array (PDA) analysis technique.RESULTS: The results showed an increase in Sprague-Dawley corticosterone blood levels with a nominal change in ACTH level. Advanced hypertrophy was observed in mesenteric adipose tissue in the high-fat diet group compared to the other diet groups.CONCLUSION: This study confirms the negative effect of a high-fat diet on health from a hormonal and adipocyte perspective. A high-fat diet was found to instigate the HPA axis and influence blood corticosterone level.KEYWORDS: adrenocorticotrophic hormone, ACTH, corticosterone, mesenteric fat, diet

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Saliva has been suggested as a substitute of serum for the detection of 25 Dihydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) in healthy people. However, investigation of salivary 1,25(OH)D has not been clearly reported. Vitamin plays important roles in inhibiting cancer progression. Current study was conducted to investigate serumal and salivary 25(OH)D) and 1,25(OH)D levels of healthy and head and neck cancer (HNC) subjects.METHODS: Research were conducted at Haji Adam Malik Hospital, Medan, Indonesia. Forty HNC and 40 healthy subjects were recruited and selected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Medical records were documented, followed by anthropometric evaluation and serum and saliva collection. Laboratory investigation for 25(OH)D and 1,25(OH) was performed using Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) methods.RESULTS: Significant serumal (p=0.002) and salivary (p=0.016) 25(OH)D mean level differences of HNC and normal groups were obtained. More serumal or salivary 25(OH)D deficient subjects were found in control group than those in HNC group. Meanwhile, serumal and salivary 1,25(OH)D mean levels of HNC group were not significantly different with the ones of control group. There were significant correlations of serumal-salivary 25(OH)D as well as serumal-salivary 1,25(OH)D levels in normal group.CONCLUSION: Serumal and salivary 25(OH)D and 1,25(OH)D levels of HNC group were relatively normal. Salivary 25(OH)D and 1,25(OH)D could be suggested as substitutes for serumal ones.KEYWORDS: vitamin D, 25(OH)D, 1,25(OH)D, head and neck cancer

Abstract

BACKGROUND: The presence of vitamin D receptor (VDR) polymorphism and high levels of inflammatory markers are predisposing factors indicating disease progression and malnutrition. To meet nutritional needs in maintaining nutritional status in tuberculosis patients with VDR gene polymorphisms (TaqI or FokI), food that is easily absorbed and high in vitamin D, calcium, and protein is needed. This study was conducted to determine whether high vitamin D and calcium porridge called soy–catfish–anchovy–rice (SCAR) porridge would increase 25(OH)D serum levels and other parameters, including calcium, albumin, high-sensivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), and blood glucose serum levels.METHODS: The study was a parallel, open, clinical trial. There were 22 subjects in the intervention (I) group who received 50 g of SCAR porridge once per day along with dietary counseling, and 21 subjects in the control (C) group who only received dietary counseling. All subjects with TC and CC (TaqI) or TC and CC (FokI) genotype were included in this study. The intervention lasted for 14 days, and the parameters such as 25(OH)D, calcium, albumin, hs-CRP, and blood glucose serum levels were assessed before and after intervention between groups.RESULTS: All subjects in both groups completed the study. After 14 days of intervention, there was a significant increase in 25(OH)D (p=0.01) and decrease in hs-CRP (p=0.02) serum levels in the I group, and no change was observed in the C group. There was no significant difference in albumin and blood glucose serum levels.CONCLUSION: The results show that 50 g of SCAR porridge per day for 14 days is an effective supplementation that can increase 25(OH)D and decrease hs-CRP serum levels in tuberculosis patients with VDR gene polymorphism.KEYWORDS: vitamin D, hs-CRP, polymorphism, porridge
