窒息鼠脑组织型纤溶酶原激活物活性变化与脑水肿的关系

目的：探讨窒息对鼠脑分泌组织型纤溶酶原激活物（TPA）的影响与脑水肿的关系。方法：通过“延迟剖宫产术”致胎鼠宫内窘迫，实验分空白对照组，窒息15min组，窒息30min组，窒息15min复氧30min组，窒息30min复氧30min五个实验组，每组各取8例测试脑组织TAP的活性及含水量，结果：窒息后鼠脑TPA活性与含水量均升高（P＜0．01），结论：窒息可致TAP活性增高，同时发生脑水肿，高活性的TPA可能是脑缺氧缺血致不可逆神经元损伤的一个重要媒介。     

大鼠皮质神经元的体外培养和纯化

目的：探讨大鼠皮质神经元分离纯化的有效方法。方法：取胎鼠大脑皮质细胞，分别在不同的培养液中进行原代培养，利用相差显微镜对培养的细胞进行动态观察；并以免疫细胞化学技术对神经元进行染色。结果：在相差显微镜下可见加用N2添加剂和胎牛血清培养的神经元生长良好，胞体形态多样，突起数目多，长度长，与邻近神经元的胞体或突起形成接触，而胶质细胞则大量死亡，神经元纯化率达94％以上，未加用N2添加剂培养的神经元胶质细胞大量存在，神经元纯化率达50％左右。结论：N2添加剂和胎牛血清联合应用可使大鼠皮质神经元得到良好的生长和有效纯化。     

ASSOCIATION OF PLASMA HOMOCYSTEINE LEVEL AND N^5,N^10—METHYLENETETRAHYDROFOLATE REDUCTASE GENE POLYMORPHISM WITH CEREBRAL INFARCTION

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship of plasma homocysteine (Hcy) level to stroke and genetic factor to elevated plasma Hcy level. METHODS: The plasma Hcy level was measured by capillary electrophoresis-ultraviolet detection and the gene polymorphism of N5,N10-methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) was studied with PCR-RFLP assay in 43 patients with cortical cerebral infarction and 42 healthy control. RESULTS: The plasma Hcy level of the patients (19.3 +/- 6.0 micromol/L) was markedly higher than that of the controls (13.7 +/- 5.4 micromol/L) (t = 4.16, P < 0.001). There are 3 genotypes, C/C, C/T and T/T, about base-variation of MTHFR gene at locus 677. The plasma Hcy level of the subjects with T/T genotype was higher than that of subjects with other genotypes. However, the frequencies of each genotype and allele were not significantly different between the patients and the controls. CONCLUSIONS: The elevated plasma Hcy level is a risk factor for atherothrombotic cerebral infarction, and is related to the C-->T mutation at locus 677 of MTHFR gene.     

Cortical circumferential profile of SPECT cerebral perfusion in Alzheimer''s disease

We developed a semiautomatic method termed “cortical circumferential profiling” for objective analysis of cerebral cortex function in emission tomographic neuroimaging studies. This method treats cortex as a continuous ring near the outer brain edge. A computer algorithm samples the cortex at 60 contiguous, equiangular locations, using 1-cm² samples. These values are plotted as a function of cortical angle to produce the cortical circumferential profile. This method was used in a study of regional cerebral perfusion in 15 patients with Alzheimer's disease and 8 elderly control subjects using N-isopropyl [I-123]-iodoamphetamine. Cortical circumferential profiling decreases variability, examines the entire cortex within slices at preselected levels above the orbital-meatal line, and facilitates intrasubject and intersubject comparisons.     

醒脑静注射液对脑缺血再灌注小鼠记忆功能的保护作用

目的：观察醒脑静（XNJI）对脑缺血再灌注后小鼠记忆功能的保护作用。方法：采用暂时性阻断两侧颈总动脉的方法制备小鼠脑缺血再灌注损伤的模型。测试其被动回避能力，脑内抗氧化酶活性及小鼠断头喘气时间，结果：XNJI可延长脑缺血再灌注小鼠的避暗潜伏期，减少错误次数，并提高谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶（GSH-Px)的活性。延长小鼠断头喘气时间。结论：XNJI可明显减轻脑缺血再灌注导致的小鼠学习记忆功能障碍状态。其主要机制可能与抗氧化作用有关。     

住院脑血管病人主要照顾者负荷

目的 探讨影响住院脑血管病人主要照顾负荷的相关因素。方法采用问卷方式对1997年～2000年60名符合研究对象进行调查。结果脑血管病人的主要照顾中60％为配偶，且年龄较大，知识水平偏低，使其身体、心理、社交方面的负荷增大。同时发现雇用身体及心理压力明显低于家属，但两社交负荷无差异。结论临床护理人员应给予住院病人主要照顾一定的协助及指导，减轻家属的压力，使主要照顾能有效地承担起照顾责任。     

高温、亚低温对大鼠脑缺血再灌注损伤的作用及其机制研究

目的：研究轻度高温、亚低温对大鼠脑缺血再灌注损伤组织兴奋性氨基酸（EAA）与氧自由基的相互关系及病理损伤程度的影响。方法：60只Wistar大鼠按不同脑温条件随机分为生化组（n=28）和病理组（n=32)，采用改良Nagasawa局灶脑缺血再灌注模型，观察脑缺血再灌注损伤组织谷氨酸（Glu），超氧化物歧化酶（SOD）、丙二醛（MDA）的变化及光镜，电镜下的病理变化。结果：轻度高温明显加重常温脑缺血再灌注损伤组织Glu、MDA的升高（P＜0．01）及SOD的下降（P＜0．05），加重常温脑缺血再灌注组织病理损伤程度，亚低温的作用则相反，结论：轻度高温可能通过同时促进EAA合成，释放和氧自由基生成系统活化，造成大鼠脑缺血再灌注损组织损伤加重；亚低温可能通过同时抑制EAA合成，释放和氧自由基生成系统活化，减轻大鼠脑缺血再灌注组织损伤程度，对大鼠脑缺血再灌注损伤组织起保护作用。
