缺氧缺血性脑损伤新生大鼠c-fos蛋白表达的意义

目的观察新生大鼠脑缺血时c-fos蛋白在海马区的表达特点，探讨c-fos蛋白表达与缺氧缺血性脑损伤（HIBD）的关系。方法48只7日龄新生SD大鼠随机分为对照组6只和实验组42只。给动物吸入含有920mL／L氮气和80mL／L氧气混合气体建立新生大鼠HIBD动物模型，分别在脑损伤后不同时间点（0．5、2、4、12、24、48、72h）断头处死动物，取海马组织，用免疫组织化学方法检测海马脑神经细胞凋亡及c-fos蛋白表达情况。结果海马区c-fos蛋白阳性细胞在HIBD后立即出现，2h达到高峰，持续至4h渐减低并持续至72h，各时间点阳性凋亡细胞的出现与c-fos蛋白呈负相关（r=-0．57P〈0．05）。结论c-fos蛋白强表达于HIBD新生大鼠的海马缺血区和缺血周边区的神经元，与神经元的存活或死亡有一定联系。

Expression of c-fos Protein in Hippocampus of Newborn Rats with Hypoxic-Ischemic Brain Damage and Its Significance

Objective To explore the relationship of c-fos protein and cell apoptosis by observing the expression of c-fos protein in hippocampus of newborn rat with hypoxic-ischemic brain damage(HIBD).Methods Forty-eight 7-day SD neonatal rats were randomly divided into control group(n=6) and experiment group(n=42).The models of HIBD were established in neonatal rats by inhaling the mixed gases of 920 mL/L N2 and 80 mL/L O2,and the animals were sacrificed by dislocation their heads at different time points(0.5,1,3,6,12,24,48,72 h),then the hippocampus were dissected by morphological analysis.Results The apoptotic cells appeared at the time point of 3 h,and reached the peak at 48 h,then decreased.The positive cell of c-fos protein increased from the time point of 30 min and reached the peak at 2 h and then decreased gradually,and there was a contrary tendency between the expression of c-fos protein and the number of damaged brain cells by HIBD(r=-0.57 P<0.05).Conclusion The expression of c-fos protein in hippocampus of rats with HIBD is stronger than other areas of brain,and there is something between cell apoptosis and c-fos protein.
