亚低温对大鼠脑损伤后脑组织炎性反应的影响

目的探讨颅脑外伤后早期应用亚低温治疗对脑组织炎性反应的影响。方法采用Feeney自由落体改良模型,设定对照组、颅脑外伤模型组及亚低温组,每组再根据伤后不同生存时间随分为3个亚组。取伤灶脑组织检测髓过氧化酶(MPO)活性,做细胞间黏附子-1(ICAM-1)免疫组化染色,光镜下计数ICAM-1阳性血管数。结果亚低温组各时间点伤灶区ICAM-1阳性血管数明显低于颅脑外伤模型相应时间点(P<0.01)。亚低温组各时间点MPO活性均明显低于颅脑外伤模型组相应时间点(P<0.01)。结论亚低温治疗能明显减少伤灶区白细胞浸润及ICAM-1的表达,有助于改善颅脑外伤后脑组织炎性反应引起的继发性脑损伤。

新生小猪脑含氧量和O-酪氨酸在双侧颈动脉结扎和失血中的变化

采用小猪双侧颈动脉结扎伴失血模型检测双侧颈动脉的结扎伴失血对脑氧分压和O-酪氨酸变化的影响,结果发现小猪脑氧分压为(51±4)托.颈动脉结扎和失血后60min降为(10±1.5)托(P<0.001),当颈动脉恢复通畅和失血再灌注后,脑氧分压增至(40±6)托,此值与预试验时的脑氧分压无明显差异.对照组中脑纹状体中的O-酪氨酸的含量为(0.57±0.19)nmoles/g组织.缺血试验后1h其含量明显升为(29±0.5)nmoles/g组织(P<0.005),显示缺血后再灌注导致脑纹状体O-酪氨酸显著上升.提示组织中羟基产生增加,可能与新生小猪脑缺血和再灌注损伤有一定作用.     

Inflammatory central nervous system disease in lupus-prone MRL/lpr mice: comparative histologic and immunohistochemical findings

The brains of pathogen-free autoimmune MRL/lpr, NZBWF1 and NZB mice were examined for central nervous system (CNS) inflammation in premoribund 8-week-old animals and at ages when active systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) was present. CNS inflammation was observed only in MRL/lpr mice. Immunohistochemical studies of brains from young MRL/lpr mice found that infiltrates were composed primarily of CD4+ cells. Older MRL/lpr mice (22 and 26 weeks of age) had CD4+ cells predominantly, but CD8+ and B220+ cells were also present. Perivascular leakage of IgG was a prominent and unexpected finding in the MRL/lpr model. Congenic MRL/+ mice with late-onset autoimmunity had no inflammatory cells in brain tissue, and there was no perivascular staining with IgG or albumin. Our findings suggest that MRL/lpr mice are a useful model for studies of lupus-associated CNS inflammatory disease, and perivascular leakage may be a primary mechanism for entry of IgG into the brain.     

Excitation of locus coeruleus neurons by an adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate-activated inward current: extracellular and intracellular studies in rat brain slices

The firing rate of locus coeruleus (LC) neurons in rat brain slices was increased reversibly by agents that either elevate intracellular levels of adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) or mimic its actions (e.g., forskolin, and activator of adenylate cyclase, 8-Br-cAMP, a membrane permeable analog of cAMP, and Ro20-1724, a preferential inhibitor of cAMP-phosphodiesterase). Intracellular recordings showed that 8-Br-cAMP and forskolin induce a depolarization of LC neurons, accompanied by a decrease in input resistance. The 8-Br-cAMP- and forskolin-elicited depolarization persisted in the presence of cobalt, a calcium channel blocker. Steady-state current-voltage curves revealed that in the voltage range of -50 to -120 mV, 8-Br-cAMP and forskolin induced an inward current, which did not reverse at the potassium equilibrium potential and could not be blocked by tetrodotoxin. Partial replacement of sodium with Tris or choline markedly reduced the depolarization elicited by 8-Br-cAMP. We conclude that 8-Br-cAMP and forskolin act through a common mechanism to increase the firing rate of locus coeruleus neurons by inducing a cAMP-activated inward current, carried out at least in part by sodium ions.

Hypothalamic hamartoma with bilateral anophthalmia

Introduction Hypothalamic hamartomas are congenital malformations. Clinically, they can be asymptomatic, but they cause seizures, mental retardation and precocious puberty in many cases. Case report A 20-day-old boy with hypothalamic hamartoma and bilateral anophthalmia was presented. Except those, no other congenital anomaly was detected. Conclusion This is a rare case of hypothalamic hamartoma with bilateral anophthalmia. The mutations at SOX2 has an important role in the developing brain and eyes.     

针刺不同穴位对脑缺血模型大鼠脑血流量的影响

目的:探讨治疗缺血性脑梗死的有效方法及针刺治疗的穴位特异性.方法:Wistar成年雄性大鼠120只,随机分为正常组、假手术组、模型对照组、非针刺组和针刺组,针刺组又随机分为非穴组和"醒脑开窍"针刺法各主穴组,即水沟组、内关组、尺泽组、三阴交组和委中组.每组12只大鼠.复制大鼠大脑中动脉缺血模型(MCAO),分别对"醒脑开窍"针刺法主穴("水沟""内关""尺泽""三阴交""委中")以及非穴区,施以频率3次/秒、持续时间5 s的针刺干预,以脑血流量为评价效应指标.结果:与模型对照组比较,非针刺组脑血流量有所升高,但差异无统计学意义(P＞0.05);与非针刺组比较,针刺后的所有组别均可提高MCAO大鼠脑血流量(均P＜0.05);与非穴组比较,所有穴位组的脑血流量均升高,水沟组和内关组升高明显(均P＜0.05),而尺泽组、三阴交组、委中组与非穴组比较,差异无统计学意义(均P＞0.05).结论:①MCAO大鼠于梗死后72h内在脑血流方面存在自我修复和向愈的趋势;②给予针刺刺激后可促进MCAO大鼠脑血流量的改善,且改善作用明显高于其自身修复能力,是治疗缺血性脑卒中的有效方法;③"醒脑开窍"针刺法各主穴中,"水沟"和"内关"在改善MCAO大鼠脑血流量方面效果显著,有穴位特异性作用.
