HORMONES

Relationship between hormones and cytokines

• The hormones influence cytokines levels and realize a connection between endocrine system and immune system

– FEMALE SEXUAL HORMONES inhibit the Th2 reaction and stimulate Th1 cytokines

– CORTISOL inhibit the Th1 reaction and in particular IL-2. In turn, different interleukins, among which IL-1, IL-6, TNF-α, IFN stimulate ACTH secretion and therefore also cortisol secretion

TRANS-MEMBRANE RECEPTORS Up- and Down-Regulation

TNF

Cell-surface receptor

Soluble TNF receptor

Cell activation

The membrane receptor plays a KEY role.

The quantity of “ligand” (hormone, cytokine or neurotransmitor) and the receptor’s ability to bind these molecules (including the

ligand’s affinity to the receptor) are both critical to the process of communication.

ONLY physiologic concentrations are able to activate or reactivate the membrane receptors and consequently, stimulate the physiologic function

of a target cell. 15

UP- AND DOWN-REGULATION

Dipartimento Scientifico Guna S.p.a.

The affinity of a receptor for the specific cytokine or the specific hormone is very

high.

The dissociation constant (KD) is about 10-9-10 -12

’80s-’90s

“Inflammation is a physio-pathologic

process guided in a psyco-neuro-

endocrine-immune way (PNEI)”

• Inflammation is not an immunological phenomenon only but it is

guided by NEURO-IMMUNE-ENDOCRINE MECHANISMS.

• Takes place the concept that inflammation is an opportune

biological process, which has not to be suppressed but

MODULATED.

• Guna-Flam and Guna Low Dose Cytokines don’t block the

inflammatory process but modulate its evolution CONTROLLING

AND REDUCING symptomatology and resolution time.

• Guna-Flam and Guna Low Dose Cytokines don’t block

physiological pathways of inflammation, preserving the self-defense

capability of the body.

Collins S M, Bercik P. The Relationship Between Intestinal Microbiota and the Central Nervous System in Normal Gastrointestinal Function and Disease. GASTROENTEROLOGY 2009;136:2003–2014

Influence of GI Physiology on the Microbiota

A change in GI physiology provides an altered habitat that in turn supports a different microbiota. This could be a basis for maintaining a state of G.I. dysfunction after perturbation of the microbiota; it could also explain the development and persistence of dysbiosis in conditions in which there is a primary disturbance of GI physiology.

• Commensal bacteria instruct the immune and

physiologic systems throughout life and are

responsible for the presence of inflammatory

and immune cells in the healthy gut: so called

“physiologic” or “controlled” inflammation

• The physiologic inflammation refers to the

presence of inflammatory cells in the mucosa and

sub-mucosa of the healthy GI tract and reflects the

presence and immunologic accommodation (rather

than immune tolerance) of the intestinal

microbiota.

• Patients with Rheumatoid arthritis – apart from the therapy – have an hyperexpression of pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as TNF alpha, IL-1, IL-6, GM-CSF, and chemokines such as IL-8

• This is somehow compensated by the production of anti-inflammatory cytokines such as IL10 and TGF beta above cytokine’s inhibitors such as IL-1ra and soluble

TNF-R. • However this regulating mechanism is not sufficient to

neutralize TNF alfa and IL-1 hyperproduction.

• TNF alfa is IL-1 regulating factor and is the main pathogenetic factor of inflammation

The great innovative element brought by PRM is to be able to act on SWITCH Th1/Th2 through mechanisms of immune regulation operated by natural substances (Vicetoxicum hirundinaria or trace elements – see

Guna Alllergy Prev) or messenger molecules (IL-12 e IFN-γ) in physiological low dose (0,01pg/ml) SKA1 able to cross regulate the

immune balance

• Cos’è l’insulino-resistenza? In assenza di patologie i livelli di glucosio nel sangue sono mantenuti entro uno stretto intervallo; questo equilibrio è regolato soprattutto dagli ormoni pancreatici: in particolare all’aumento della glicemia si associa l’aumento del trasporto di glucosio nelle cellule ß-pancreatiche con conseguente rilascio in circolo di insulina. L’aumento di insulina a sua volta stimola il trasporto e l’utilizzazione del glucosio da parte dei tessuti periferici (in particolar modo il fegato, i muscoli scheletrici e il tessuto adiposo). Oltre agli effetti sull’omeostasi glicemica, l’insulina regola la crescita cellulare, favorisce la sintesi dei carboidrati, dei grassi, delle proteine e regola infine l’espressione di numerosi geni. L’insulino-resistenza è una condizione caratterizzata da una diminuzione degli effetti biologici dell’insulina; in altri termini, è una condizione nella quale le quantità fisiologiche di insulina producono una risposta biologica ridotta, specie a livello dell’omeostasi glicemica. L’iperglicemia persistente stimola il pancreas a secernere quantità maggiori di insulina, determinando così iperinsulinemia. La resistenza insulinica inoltre modifica il fisiologico metabolismo lipidico determinando un quadro di dislipidemia caratterizzato dall’aumento in circolo di trigliceridi, diminuzione dei livelli di colesterolo HDL e dalla presenza di particelle LDL più piccole e dense (sdLDL), fortemente aterogene. Oltre ad aumentare il rischio trombotico, l’insulino-resistenza determina anche sodio-ritenzione, causando quindi ipertensione arteriosa. L’insulino-resistenza non è di per sé una condizione clinica definita ma contribuisce significativamente alla patogenesi del diabete mellito tipo 2, dell’obesità, della dislipidemia, dell’ipertensione, della statosi epatica non alcolica e della sindrome dell’ovaio policistico (PCOS). Secondo alcuni ricercatori potrebbe esserci un legame tra l’insulino-resistenza ed alcune forme di cancro. Il meccanismo fisiopatologico di questa associazione non è noto. Nel 2001, l’ATPIII (Adult Treatment Panel III) ha definito la sindrome metabolica come “un insieme di fattori di rischio di natura metabolica, connessi all’insulino-resistenza” indicando l’importanza della stessa nello sviluppo della malattia cardiovascolare. Le cause che determinano insulino-resistenza non sono del tutto note. In tutti i casi appare come una realtà multifattoriale in cui pesano sia fattori genetici, inclusi fattori etnici, sia l’inadeguato stile di vita, in particolare una dieta ipercalorica accoppiata ad uno scarso esercizio fisico. Nella maggior parte dei pazienti l’iperinsulinemia compensa la resistenza insulinica anche per diversi anni. Quando la risposta insulinica non è più adeguata alle richiesta si instaura uno stato iperglicemico che può progressivamente evolvere verso il diabete mellito tipo 2.

METABOLIC SYNDROME About Insulin resistance we can do some reasonings. As you know, insulin and GH are realated each other, it means that if you have high levels of GH you increase the amount of insulin in the blood. But we know that with a negative feedback, IGF-1 is able to slowing down the production of GH. So, our IGF-1 4CH could be good. Consider also to slow down GH the use of Somatostatine 4 CH From the point of view of interleukins it is important to reduce the pro-inflammatory ones (IL-6 especially but IL-1 and TNF-alfa also) for instance using the opposite cytokines like IL-10 and IL-4. It is important to drain the matrix because the problem is that insulin molecules don't arrive to the membrane receptor of the the cell's: Guna-Matrix Add Guna-Cell also. Use absolutely Guna-Liver, because you know that insuline resistance provoke an increase of LDL and a deacrease of HDL. Guna-Liver works very well in these conditions. Reduce stress (cortisol mobilize insuline). To control cortisol we can suggest T3 6X to slowing down cortsicosteroids activity And use SON Formula.

• In animals longlife is correlated with:

–High levels of :

• IGF-1

•Melatonin

Melatonin and Aging

• Circulating melatonin decreases with age and in recent years much interest has been focused on its immunomodulatory effect.

• Melatonin stimulates the production of progenitor cells for granulocytes-macrophages. It also stimulates the production of NK cells and CD4+ cells and inhibits CD8+ cells.

• The production and release of various cytokines from NK cells and T-helper lymphocytes also are enhanced by melatonin.

• Melatonin presumably regulates immune function by acting on the immune-opioid network, by affecting G protein-cAMP signal pathway and by regulating intracellular glutathione levels.

Melatonin has the potential therapeutic value to enhance immune function in aged people and in patients in immunecompromised conditions.

Insulin Growth Factor-1 and Aging

• Insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) are polipeptides with high sequence similarity to insulin

• IGF-1 is mainly secreted by the liver as a result of stimulation by GH.

• IGF-1 is important for both the regulation of normal physiology, as well as a number of pathological states, including cancer

• IGF axis has been shown to play roles in the promotion of cell proliferation and inhibition of apoptosis

• Factors that are known to cause variation in the levels IGF-1 in the circulation include an individuals genetic make-up, the time of day, age, sex, exercise, stress levels, genetics, nutrition level and body mass index (BMI), disease state, race, estrogen status and xenobiotic intake.

Courtesy from Dr. I Bianchi

ACTH and Aging

• It was demonstrated that administration of ACTH led to facilitation of learning and strengthening of memory processes (conditioned reflex traces). ACTH promoted strengthening of movement, orientational-investigative, and intersignal activities, produced hyperalgesia, and blocked the effects of naloxone

• ACTH is involved in motivation, learning and memory. • ACTH restores the ability of hypophysectomised rats to acquire an

avoidance response in a shuttlebox.

Anti aging Hormones

Oxitocine TRH LH-RH

Oxitocin and Aging

• Oxytocin is a mammalian hormone that also acts as a neurotransmitter in the brain.

• Oxytocin is released during orgasm in both sexes.

• In the brain, oxytocin is involved in social recognition and bonding, and might be involved in the formation of trust between people, in generosity and in the reduction of fear

• Can impair memory retrieval in certain aversive memory tasks.

Courtesy from Dr. I Bianchi

TRH and Aging

• The brain tripeptide thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) has been demonstrated to facilitate cholinergic neurotransmission.

• TRH markedly attenuated scopolamine-induced impairment of some measures of memory, most notably on a selective reminding task.

• Cognitive study suggest a facilitatory role for TRH

in human memory processes. • Scientific studies suggest that stimulation of TRH

may be useful for treatment of age-related emotional disorders and memory disturbance in dementia.

Courtesy from Dr. I Bianchi

LH-RH and Aging • Luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LH-RH), the key reproductive

hormone coordinating the major features of mammalian reproduction • The hypothalamic decapeptide can modulate immune functions directly,

through local paracrine–autocrine effects in immune cells, and indirectly through activation of the hypothalamic– pituitary–gonadal (HPG) axis

• LH-RH participates both at central and peripheral levels in the interaction between the neuroendocrine and immune systems.

• The reciprocity of the NEI signalling systems is further supported by the ability of sex steroids to modulate thymus-dependent immune function via direct effects on specific target genes involved in the development of sex-dimorphic immune responses, including the downregulation of the immune response observed during pregnancy.

Neurotrophins

• Neurotrophic factors are endogenous proteins that alter the survival, development, maintenance, and differentiation of neurons.

• Evidence has indicated that neurotrophic factors may be implicated in the normal functional activity of nerve cells.

• These molecules are generally small, soluble proteins with molecular weights between 13 and 24 kDa and are often active as homodimers (1,2).

Courtesy from Dr. I Bianchi

Neurotrophins

• Brain Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) Supports motoneuron development and survival in animals and prevents naturally occurring death

• Neurotrophin 3 (NT-3) NT-3 is related to NGF and has homology with it. It is found in motorneurons, sympathetic neurons and some peripheral sensory organs.

• Neurotrophin 4 (NT-4) NT 4 also is related to NGF and has similar homology. NT-4 is produced in skeletal muscle but production of NT-4 was found to depend on muscle activity

Courtesy from Dr. I Bianchi

Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF)

• Acting on certain CNS neurons and on the peripheral nervous system

• Helps to support the survival of existing neurons and encourage the growth and differentiation of new neurons and synapses

• ACTIVE IN THE HYPPOCAMPUS, CORTEX, BASAL FOREBRAIN AREAS VITAL TO LEARNING, MEMORY, AND HIGHER THINKING.

• Although the vast majority of neurons in the brain are formed prenatally, parts of the adult brain retain the ability to grow new neurons from neural stem cells in a process known as Neurogenesis

• Various studies have shown possible links between low levels of BDNF and conditions such as : Depression, Schizofrenia, Obsessive Compulsive Disorders, Alzheimer Disease, Untington’s Chorea, Rett Syndrome, Dementia, Anorexia and bulimia Nervosa

Courtesy from Dr. I Bianchi

Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF)

• BDNF is one of the most active neurotrophins. Mice born without the ability to make BDNF suffer developmental defects in the brain and sensory nervous system, and usually die soon after birth, suggesting that BDNF plays an important role in normal neural development

• BDNF is actually found not only in the brain but also in a range of tissue and cell types : Retina, Motor neurons, Kidneys and Prostate.

• Various studies have shown possible links between low levels of BDNF and conditions such as : Depression, Schizofrenia, Obsessive Compulsive Disorders, Alzheimer Disease, Untington’s Chorea, Rett Syndrome, Dementia, Anorexia and bulimia Nervosa

NT-3 : synaptic potentiation NT-4 : synaptic plasticity

Neurotrophin-3 (NT-3) supports the SURVIVAL AND DIFFERENTIATION OF NEURONES IN THE CENTRAL AND PERIPHERAL NERVOUS SYSTEMS through a number of mechanisms that occur in a matter of hours or days. NT-3 may also have a more rapid mode of action that influences SYNAPTIC ACTIVITY IN MATURE NEURONES. NT-3, have been implicated in the regulation of synaptic transmission and plasticity.

Neurotrophin 4 (NT4) is required for the SYNAPTIC PLASTICITY mediating both tolerance and memory. NT4 may be involved in neural plasticity underlying opiate tolerance

Thyrosine and aging

• Nonessential amino acid synthesized in the body from phenylalanine. As a building block for several important

brain chemicals, tyrosine is needed to make epinephrine, norepinephrine, serotonin, and dopamine, all of which work to regulate mood.

• Deficiencies in this amino acid is associated with depression. • Tyrosine also aids in the production of melanin and in the function of the adrenal, thyroid, and pituitary glands.

Tyrosine is also involved in the synthesis of enkephalins, substances that have pain-relieving effects in the body.

• Low levels of tyrosine have been associated with low blood pressure, low body temperature, and an under active thyroid.

• Because tyrosine binds unstable molecules (called free radicals) that can potentially cause damage to the cells and tissues, it is considered a mild antioxidant. Thus, tyrosine may be useful for people who have been exposed to harmful chemicals (such as from smoking) and radiation.

Courtesy from Dr. I Bianchi

Phenylalanine and aging

• Phenylalanine is used to treat a variety of medical problems. Because some antidepressants work by raising

norepinephrine levels, phenylalanine has been used to treat depression

• Phenylalanine has been suggested as a treatment for chronic pain caused by rheumatoid arthritis, muscle pain, and osteoarthritis, as it blocks enkephalinase, an enzyme that may act to increase pain levels in the body. There is some evidence to support the use of phenylalanine to alleviate chronic pain
