The dual Pt working electrodes with disk shape and the surrounding ring shaped counter electrode were fabricated by thin film technology, which were integrated onto the same microchip. The response of the designed biosensor for glucose and galactose were linear up to 6.0 mmol/L and 3.5 mmol/L with sensitivities of 0.3 mA/mmol/L and 0.12 mA/mmol/L, respectively. No cross-talking effect was observed.展开更多

After a two-week acclimation period, the control group was administered Brucella broth and the H. pylori group was challenged intra-gastrically five times every other day with approximately 109/CFU H. pylori ATCC43504(Cag A+, Vac A+). Each group was then divided into two subgroups, which were sacrificed at either 6 or 12 mo. The control and H. pylori subgroups each contained 10 Mongolian gerbils. Body weight, abdominal circumference, and body length were measured, and body mass index(BMI) and Lee's index were calculated. Biochemical assays were used to detect serum indexes, including glucose, glycated hemoglobin(GHb), glycated hemoglobin A1c(Hb A1c), triacylglycerol, and total cholesterol, using an automatic biochemistry analyzer. Inflammatory cytokines, including interleukin(IL)-1β, IL-2, IL-4,IL-10, IL-12, tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α) and interferon(IFN)-g, were assayed using ELISA. The expression of insulin and insulin-like growth factor 1(IGF-1) was detected by immunohistochemistry, and islet apoptosis was measured using the terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated d UTP nick end labeling(TUNEL) assay.RESULTS: At each time point, body weight, abdominal circumference, BMI, and Lee's index were increased after H. pylori infection. However, these differences were not significant. H. pylori infection significantly increased the GHb(5.45 ± 0.53 vs 4.98 ± 0.22, P < 0.05) and Hb A1c(4.91 ± 0.61 vs 4.61 ± 0.15, P < 0.05) levels at 12 mo. We observed no significant differences in serum biochemical indexes, including fasting blood glucose, triacylglycerol and total cholesterol, at 6 or 12 mo after infection. H. pylori infection significantly increased the expression of IGF-1(P < 0.05). Insulin levels from the pancreas and the apoptotic rate of islet β-cells remained unchanged. Also, we observed no significant differences among cytokines levels, including IL-1β, IL-2, IL-4, IL-10, IL-12, TNF-α and IFN-g. IL-4 was the only exception, which increased at 6(44.36 ± 25.17 vs 17.38 ± 3.47, P < 0.05) and 12 mo(33.41 ± 10.00 vs 18.91 ± 5.31, P < 0.05) after H. pylori infection.CONCLUSION: Long-term H. pylori infection is significantly associated with high levels of Hb A1 c in Mongolian gerbils, indicating a potential role of H. pylori infection in glucose dysregulation.展开更多
