A new mass spectrometry-based method for the quantification of histones in plasma from septic shock patients.

2017

The aim of this study was to develop a novel method to detect circulating histones H3 and H2B in plasma based on multiple reaction monitoring targeted mass spectrometry and a multiple reaction monitoring approach (MRM-MS) for its clinical application in critical bacteriaemic septic shock patients. Plasma samples from 17 septic shock patients with confirmed bacteraemia and 10 healthy controls were analysed by an MRM-MS method, which specifically detects presence of histones H3 and H2B. By an internal standard, it was possible to quantify the concentration of circulating histones in plasma, which were significantly higher in patients, and thus confirmed their potential as biomarkers for diagn…

Role of glutathione in the regulation of epigenetic mechanisms in disease

2017

Epigenetics is a rapidly growing field that studies gene expression modifications not involving changes in the DNA sequence. Histone H3, one of the basic proteins in the nucleosomes that make up chromatin, is S-glutathionylated in mammalian cells and tissues, making Gamma-L-glutamyl-L-cysteinylglycine, glutathione (GSH), a physiological antioxidant and second messenger in cells, a new post-translational modifier of the histone code that alters the structure of the nucleosome. However, the role of GSH in the epigenetic mechanisms likely goes beyond a mere structural function. Evidence supports the hypothesis that there is a link between GSH metabolism and the control of epigenetic mechanisms…

Pharmacological activation of CB2 receptors counteracts the deleterious effect of ethanol on cell proliferation in the main neurogenic zones of the a…

2015

Chronic alcohol exposure reduces endocannabinoid activity and disrupts adult neurogenesis in rodents, which results in structural and functional alterations. Cannabinoid receptor agonists promote adult neural progenitor cell (NPC) proliferation. We evaluated the protective effects of the selective CB1 receptor agonist ACEA, the selective CB2 receptor agonist JWH133 and the fatty-acid amide-hydrolase (FAAH) inhibitor URB597, which enhances endocannabinoid receptor activity, on NPC proliferation in rats with forced consumption of ethanol (10%) or sucrose liquid diets for 2 weeks. We performed immunohistochemical and stereological analyses of cells expressing the mitotic phosphorylation of his…

Mecanismos epigenéticos en las células endometriales estromales durante el proceso de decidualización

2012

Durante el ciclo menstrual y bajo el control de las hormonas esteroideas el endometrio experimenta grandes cambios morfológicos y bioquímicos en preparación para la implantación embrionaria. Los principales eventos que tienen lugar son el establecimiento del estado receptivo seguido de un aumento en los niveles de progesterona que induce la decidualización de las células estromales endometriales. La decidualización es una transformación morfológica y funcional del compartimento endometrial estromal necesaria para el control del proceso de invasión embrionaria y la formación de la placenta y por lo tanto para el establecimiento del embarazo. Este proceso está muy bien caracterizado a nivel t…

Identificación de los mecanismos epigenéticos relacionados con los fenómenos de inmunosupresión en sepsis y su uso como biomarcadores de pronóstico

2023

La sepsis es un síndrome complejo que provoca una respuesta inmunitaria exacerbada como resultado a una infección, lo que puede causar disfunción orgánica y, en última instancia, la muerte. La sepsis puede avanzar a shock séptico (SS), caracterizado por una disfunción orgánica aguda que puede provocar una insuficiencia circulatoria y metabólica grave, aumentando el riesgo de mortalidad. Los pacientes con sepsis o SS ingresados durante al menos 7 días en la Unidad de Cuidados Intensivos (UCI) que presentan disfunción orgánica y necesidad de ventilación mecánica se clasifican como enfermos críticos crónicos (ECC), los cuales, si están ingresados al menos 14 días y cumplen una serie de caracte…
