ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the effects of CoC12 treatment on the expression of Hypoxia-inducible factor-1(HIF-1α) in mice hippocampus at different time point.Methods Balb/c mice were injected with CoCl2 and the change of HIF-1 α was detected by western blot and immunofluorescence and confocal laser scanning microscope at different time point(0h,1h,2h,3h,4h,5h and 6h) after injection.Results The relative protein level of HIF-1α was 0.135 ±0.01,0.572 ±0.01,0.595 ±0.03,1.09 ±0.03,1.30 +0.04,1.275 ±0.03,0.947 ±0.03respectively at different time point after the injection.The HIF-1α protein level reached its peak value at 4 h and decreased at 5h and 6h.Fluorescence intensity of HIF-1α was 13.33 ± 3.42,30.95 ± 7.86,46.50 ± 9.65,61.50± 10.02,88.30 + 15.69,71.39 ± 11.28,67.41 ± 10.78 respectively at different time point after the injection.The HIF-1α fluorescence intensity also reached its peak value at 4 h and decreased at 5h and 6h.Conclusion Time dependent HIF-1α accumulation was in close correlation with the CoCl2.
ABSTRACT
Aim To investigate the influence of intranasal delivery of calcitonin gene-related peptide(CGRP)on cerebral blood supply and expression of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)following experimental subarachnoid hemorrhage(SAH).Methods Wistar rats were divided into normal control group,SAH group,intranasal normal saline(NS)+SAH group and intranasal CGRP+SAH group.SAH models were produced by double injection of autologous arterial blood into cisterna magna.CGRP and NS were given by intranasal perfusion.Dynamic observations of regional cerebral blood flow(rCBF)of cerebral cortex were made using a laser Doppler flowmeter probe.On the third day after the second cisternal injection,the expression of VEGF protein in cerebral cortex was observed by immunofluorescence method combined with laser confocal microscopic observation.Results Anatomic observation revealed that SAH models were successfully manufactured.In SAH and intranasal NS+SAH groups,a drastic and persistent drop in rCBF was noted during the observed periods.The decrease of rCBF in intranasal CGRP+SAH group was slighter as compared with that in SAH and intranasal NS+SAH groups.In SAH and intranasal NS+SAH groups,increased expression of VEGF protein in cerebral cortex was observed on the third day after second cisternal injection as compared with that in normal control group.The expression of VEGF in intranasal CGRP+SAH group was more obvious than that in intranasal NS+SAH group.Conclusion Intranasal delivery of CGRP improves cerebral blood supply and promotes angiogenesis by enhancing the expression of VEGF after SAH.
ABSTRACT
Objective Try to discover the safe and effective inhibitors of lymphangiogenesis. Methods Lymphatic endotheial cells from pig thoracic duct were isolated and cultured. The observation of specimens by LM and EM was made. The control group, endostatin and PF-4 experimental groups were set. Methods of the scraped line and MTT were used to examine their inhibitive effect on the lymphangiogenesis. Results The P value is
