IL-17A Is Increased in Humans with Primary Hyperparathyroidism and Mediates PTH-Induced Bone Loss in Mice.
Primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) is a common cause of bone loss that is modeled by continuous PTH (cPTH) infusion. Here we show that the inflammatory cytokine IL-17A is upregulated by PHPT in humans and cPTH in mice. In humans, IL-17A is normalized by parathyroidectomy. In mice, treatment with anti-IL-17A antibody and silencing of IL-17A receptor IL-17RA prevent cPTH-induced osteocytic and os...
متن کاملNicotinamide riboside, a form of vitamin B3, protects against excitotoxicity-induced axonal degeneration.
NAD+ depletion is a common phenomenon in neurodegenerative pathologies. Excitotoxicity occurs in multiple neurologic disorders and NAD+ was shown to prevent neuronal degeneration in this process through mechanisms that remained to be determined. The activity of nicotinamide riboside (NR) in neuroprotective models and the recent description of extracellular conversion of NAD+ to NR prompted us t...
متن کاملIL-17 Signaling Accelerates the Progression of Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease in Mice
UNLABELLED Inflammation plays a central pathogenic role in the pernicious metabolic and end-organ sequelae of obesity. Among these sequelae, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has become the most common chronic liver disease in the developed world. The twinned observations that obesity is associated with increased activation of the interleukin (IL)-17 axis and that this axis can regulate ...
متن کاملInvestigating the Association of IL-17A and IL-17F with Susceptibility to Pre-eclampsia in Iranian Women
Background: Pre-eclampsia (PE) is one of the most important and life-threatening pregnancy disorders that affect at least 3-5% of all pregnancies. Imbalance in helper T cell functions may play a role in predisposing to PE or severity of the disease. Elevated frequencies of Th17 cells in the peripheral blood of PE patients have been reported. Several single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) within ...
متن کاملNRK1 controls nicotinamide mononucleotide and nicotinamide riboside metabolism in mammalian cells
NAD+ is a vital redox cofactor and a substrate required for activity of various enzyme families, including sirtuins and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases. Supplementation with NAD+ precursors, such as nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) or nicotinamide riboside (NR), protects against metabolic disease, neurodegenerative disorders and age-related physiological decline in mammals. Here we show that nico...
