ABSTRACT
Objective:To study the protective effect of electroacupuncture on stem cell proliferation and differentiation in dentate gyrus (DG) in aged rats with focal cerebral ischemia reperfusion injury. Methods:We duplicated focal cerebral ischemia model with MCAO,with ischemia 3h,I/R1,3,7,14,21d points. The effect of electroacupuncture on the nervous dysfunction score,the water content of cerebral constitution and the stem cell proliferation and differentiation in dentate gyrus were observed,and the non-acupoint group was as control. Results:The nervous dysfunction score (all the time points),the water content of cerebral tissue (I/R1,3,7d),BrdU positive cells (all the time points),BrdU/NeuN positive cells (all the time points),BrdU/GFAP positive cells (I/R7,14,21d),in model group were higher than those of the sham-operated group (P
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effect of long term intelligence on NGF to the newborn rats with hypoxic ischemic brain damage (HIBD).Methods The model of newborn rat hypoxic ischemic brain damage(HIBD) was set,0.01mg/10g dosage NGF and 0.03mg/10g dosage NGF were administered to the rat abdominal cavity respectively. With maze test, the change of learning memory abilities of long term in the rats were observed, the concentration of monoamine neurotransmitters in the brain tissue were determined by high performance liquid chromatography electrochemical detector.Results The function of learning and memory was better in NGF group(small, large amount group)than in the control group, the frequency was lower remarkably than the control group( P
ABSTRACT
Objective To identify genomic DNA of Schistosoma ?. Methods Amplification of genomic DNA by the random-amplified polymorphic DNA polymerase chain reaction (RAPD-PCR) with 10-base pair was used. The 50 worms were collected from rabbits infected with cercariae of S.? and Schistosoma japonicum(S.j.) respectively. RAPD-PCR were performed on PCR-2400 according to the manufature's instruction. And 29 primers were adopted from Operon Company. The samples were run on 1.4% sepharose. Results RAPD fragments produced were various in quantity(4-12 bands)and size(0.5-5.2Kb) in S.? and S.j. , most of about 224 bands produced with 27 different primers were common, but 6 differential bands produced with 2 primers (J 01 CCCGGCATAA and L 12 GGGCGGTACT) of the 29 primers were found, 4 and 2 of the 6 differential bands seen in the S.? and S.j. respectively. Conclusion These specific fragments found in S.? and S.j. may be used as molecular markers for the identification of S.? and S.j.
