Adropin and apelin fluctuations throughout a season in professional soccer players: Are they related with performance?
2015
Myokines are likely to be involved in the whole-body metabolic adaptive changes that occur in response to regular exercise. We aimed to investigate the association of the two myokines (adropin and apelin) with physical performance in professional soccer players. To this purpose, we analyzed the fluctuations of circulating levels of both adropin and apelin in professional soccer players during a season and evaluated the possible association of these myokines with the performance level. Creatine kinase (CK) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity as well as iron, transferrin and high-sensitivity C-Reactive protein (hsCRP), ferritin, soluble transferrin receptor (sTfR), free testosterone/cort…
ATP4A autoimmunity in pediatric patients with type 1 diabetes and its relationship to blood count, iron metabolism, and vitamin B12
2017
Objective We aimed to assess the prevalence of autoantibodies against the 4A subunit of the gastric proton pump (ATP4A) in pediatric type 1 diabetes (T1D) patients and explore the relationship between ATP4A positivity and blood cell count, iron turnover, and vitamin B12 concentration. Subjects The study included 94 (59% female) T1D children (aged 12.5 ± 4.1 years, T1D duration 4.2 ± 3.6 years, HbA1c 7.3 ± 1.5% (57 ± 12.6 mmol/mol) with no other autoimmune diseases. Methods ATP4A antibodies were measured in T1D patients using a radioimmunoprecipitation assay. Blood cell count, iron concentration, total iron binding capacity, ferritin, transferrin, hepcidin, and vitamin B12 concentration were…
0135 : New regulators of iron metabolism, hepcidin and erythroferrone, in acute myocardial infarction
2016
Background Dysfunctional iron storage and transport are common in patients with chronic heart failure and associated with poor prognosis. Body iron could contribute to the pathogenesis of coronary artery disease (CAD) through its ability to induce oxidative stress. However, studies on the relationship between iron metabolism and CAD have yielded conflicting results. Patients and methods from the obseRvatoire des Infarctus de Cote d’Or (RICO) survey, 31 consecutive patients admitted in Intensive Care Unit for a first AMI were included. Serum concentrations of iron, transferrin, ferritin, the iron-regulatory hormone hepcidin and erythroferrone (a new hepcidinregulating hormone), transferrin s…
