细胞黏附分子(ICAM-1)在大鼠弥漫性脑损伤中的表达意义

目的探讨ICAM—1在大鼠弥漫性脑损伤中的表达及意义。方法采用Marmarou方法获得大鼠弥漫性脑损伤模型．实时定量RT—PCR、S—P免疫组化法分别测定ICAM—1蛋白和mRNA在外伤后不同时间点的表达变化．干湿重法测脑组织含水量．组织切片苏木精一伊红染色观测炎性细胞浸润情况。结果外伤组与假手术对照组比较，ICAM—1蛋白表达分别于伤后6h明显升高．72h达到高峰（P〈0.05），ICAM—ImRNA表达3h即明显升高，72h达最高峰，其后下降。7d时仍高于假手术对照组（P〈0．01）。伤后脑组织含水量较假手术对照组高，同时炎性细胞大量聚集。结论大鼠脑外伤诱导了ICAM—1的表达．ICAM—1通过介导炎性细胞的浸润可能参与了伤后脑水肿的形成过程．     

Relation between magnesium and potassium concentrations in myocardium, skeletal muscle, and mononuclear blood cells.

Potassium and magnesium were measured in 26 cardiac surgery patients (right atrial appendage), 23 autopsy subjects (right atrial appendage, left ventricular free wall, and skeletal muscle), and 9 healthy volunteers (mononuclear blood cells) to determine whether there was a relation between these two ions in the tissues measured. In the cardiac surgery patients, the potassium and magnesium concentrations were 46.35 +/- 3.89 and 4.40 +/- 0.58 (mean +/- SD, mumol/g wet weight tissue), respectively, and were significantly correlated (r = 0.54, P = 0.005). In the autopsy group, the respective concentrations were: for right atrial appendage, 30.54 +/- 10.18 and 3.66 +/- 0.70 mumol/g (r = 0.38, P = 0.14); left ventricular free wall, 60.69 +/- 17.93 and 7.74 +/- 1.73 mumol/g (r = 0.92, P = 0.0001); and skeletal muscle, 93.05 +/- 20.49 and 8.64 +/- 2.06 mumol/g (r = 0.91, P = 0.0001). In the healthy volunteer group, the results for potassium and magnesium in mononuclear blood cells were 42 +/- 9.9 and 3.99 +/- 0.70 fmol/cell, respectively (r = 0.94, P = 0.0001). Thus, potassium and magnesium concentrations were significantly correlated in all the tissues measured.

Extracellular signal regulated kinases 1/2 signal pathway and responses of astrocytes after diffuse brain injury

BACKGROUND: The treatment of diffuse brain injury during an acute period is focused on relieving degrees of secondary brain injury. Generation and development of pathological changes of secondary brain injury depend on signal conduction, so down-regulating over response of astrocyte through interfering a key link of signal conduction pathway may bring a new thinking for the treatment of diffuse brain injury. OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of over activity of extracellular signal regulated kinases 1/2 (ERK1/2) signal pathway on the response of astrocyte during an acute period of diffuse brain injury. DESIGN: Completely randomized grouping and controlled animal study. SETTINGS: Department of Neurosurgery, the Third Affiliated Hospital, Nanchang University; Department of Neurosurgery, Union Hospital Affiliated to Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology. MATERIALS: A total of 158 healthy male SD rats, of 11 weeks old, weighing 320–370 g, were provided by Experimental Animal Faulty, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology. Rabbit-anti-phosphorylated ERK1/2 (pERK1/2) polyclonal antibody was provided by R&D Company; rabbit-anti-glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) polyclonal antibody, SP immunohistochemical kit and horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-labeled goat-anti-rabbit IgG by Santa Cruz Company; specific inhibitor U0126 of ERK1/2 signal pathway by Alexis Company. METHODS: The experiment was carried out in the Laboratory of Neurosurgery, Union Hospital Affiliated to Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology from September 2004 to March 2006. ① Detection of pERK1/2 expression: A total of 110 rats were randomly divided into sham operation group (n =5), model group (n =35), high-dosage U0126 group (n =35) and low-dosage U0126 group (n =35). Rats in the sham operation group were only treated with incision of epicranium and fixation of backup plate, but not hit. Rats in the model group were used to establish diffuse brain injury models based on Marmarou free falling body without drug intervention. Rats in the high- and low-dosage U0126 groups were injected into caudal vein with 0.1 and 0.05 mg/kg U0126, respectively, and then, rats were hit to establish injured models. Every 5 rats were collected from model, high- and low-dosage U0126 groups at 5, 30 minutes, 3, 12, 24, 72 hours and 7 days after diffuse brain injury to detect pERK1/2 expression in cortex of parietal lobe based on Western blot technique. ② Distribution of pERK1/2 and positive GFAP cells in brain tissue: Another 48 rats were randomly divided into sham operation group (n =3), model group (n =15), high-dosage U0126 group (n =15) and low-dosage U0126 group (n =15). The intervention and administration were dealt as the same as those mentioned above. Every 3 rats were collected from model, high- and low-dosage U0126 groups at 30 minutes, 3, 12, 24 and 72 hours after model establishment to observe the distribution of pERK1/2 and postive GFAP cells in brain tissue which was cut from coronal section at Bregma –4.8 mm layer with immunohistochemical staining. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: pERK1/2 expression in cortex of parietal lobe and distribution of pERK1/2 and positive GFAP cells in brain tissues. RESULTS: ① pERK1/2 expression: After diffuse brain injury, pERK1/2 expression in cortex of parietal lobe was rapidly increased in the model group, reached at peak at 5 minutes and then decreased gradually. But the expression was still in a high level until the 72nd hour and fallen to the basic level on the 7th day. pERK1/2 level was lower in high- and low-dosage U0126 groups than that in model group at various time points (P < 0.01); meanwhile, pERK1/2 level was lower in high-dosage U0126 group than that in low-dosage U0126 group. The results showed that there was a certain dosage dependence on pERK1/2 expression. ② Distribution of pERK1/2 and positive GFAP cells in brain tissue: Positive expression of pERK1/2 lasted in brain tissue from 30 minutes to 72 hours after diffuse brain injury (P < 0.05). In addition, from 30 minutes to 3 hours, brown-yellow stained cells were mainly distributed in plasma, but rarely in nucleus. A lot of positive cells had tree-like apophysis, which was similar to neurons. With the time passing by, more and more nuclei manifested positive stains; moreover, nuclei mainly manifested positive staining until 24 hours after diffuse brain injury. Immune-positive pERK1/2 cells were widely distributed in brain tissue, especially mainly in binding site between deep cortex and cerebral white matter, and then in hippocampus. In addition, ependymal cell and vascular endothelial cells of choroids plexus also manifested strongly positive staining. As compared with model group, positive cells were decreased gradually in high- and low-dosage U0126 groups. However, number of positive cells was less in high-dosage U0126 group than that in low-dosage U0126 group. CONCLUSION: Diffuse brain injury strongly induces the activity of ERK1/2 signal pathway and response of astrocyte; in addition, U0126 can inhibit response of glial cells during an acute period, and the effect manifests dosage dependence.
