Effects of wide band frequency noise on NMDAR1(zeta 1), NMDAR2A(epsilon 1) subunit and ABR threshold in the different area of brain of AD rats poisoned by glutamic acid / 中国应用生理学杂志

<p><b>AIM</b>To investigate the change of NMDAR1 (zeta 1) subunit expression in temple cortex, frontal lobe, hippocampus and cerebellum of three different group rat after 98 dB wide frequency noise exposure.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Western Blot and RT-PCR technique, combined with auditory brainstem response (ABR) measurement.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>(1) Expressions of NMDAR1 (zeta 1) subunit in frontal cortex, temple cortex, hippocampus and cerebellum have no difference, but AD model rat is much weaker than the control group. (2) Expression of NMDAR2A (epsilon 1) in temple cortex for physiological saline groups rat have a mostly increase (plus noise), moreover, those are weakest expression in hippocampus. NMDAR1 (zeta 1) subunit in cerebellum have highest expression, moreover, it is weakest in temple cortex. (3) NMDAR1 (zeta1), NMDAR2A (epsilon 1) subunit expression in hippocampus for three groups rat have a down-regulation after adding noise. (4) NMDAR1 (zeta 1), NMDAR2A (epsilon 1) subunit mRNA expression in control group have no remarkable difference in different cortex. (5) Expressions of NMDAR2A (epsilon 1) in frontal temple cortex, hippocampus for AD model rat are less than that of other groups, weakest in cerebellum, weaker in frontal.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Wide band frequency noise can reduce the expression of NMDAR1 (zeta 1) subunit in hippocampus and cerebellum of AD model rat, however, the way of regulation is not in the mRNA level. Wide band frequency noise can inhibit the expression of NMDAR2A (epsilon 1) in hippocampus, temple cortex of AD model rat, which has been regulated by mRNA level and have cortex area difference.</p>

Effects of wide band frequency noise on ERK, GDNF and ABR threshold in the different area of brain of AD rats poisoned by glutamatic acid / 中国应用生理学杂志

<p><b>AIM</b>To investigate the change of ERK, GDNF expression activity in temple and frontal lobe of AD rat after 96 dB wide band noise exposure.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Experimental group SD rats(weight from 150-220 g), either male or female, were randomly assigned to three groups: control (n=10); physiological brine-injected control (n=8); glutamic acid-injected group (n=8) after getting rid of memory loss(indicating "a little memory" and "no memory") rats culled by behavior training. The rats were micro-injected at the stereotaxic device (AP3.2-3.4, L2.0-2.4,H2.8-3.0)by glutamic acid or same volume of physiological brine in the each side of hippocampus CA1. Western Blot and image quantitative analysis technique, combined with auditory brainstem response (ABR) measurement.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>(1) Expressions of ERK in frontal cortex for control rat are much more than that of other group, which has a obvious up-regulation after being given 96 dB noise. Expression of ERK in temple cortex for 3 groups rat have a increase(plus noise), moreover, they are stronger than expression in frontal cortex for different group. (3) GDNF in frontal cortex for control rat have a higher expression than that of the same group before adding noise (up-regulation). (4) GDNF expression in temple lobe for glutamatic acid group have a remarkable down-regulation trend. (5) Expression of GDNF in frontal for control rat is much less than in temple.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>ERK in frontal cortex for AD model rat have fewer expressions and not being affected by 96 dB noise, but it is reverse in temple. Wide band frequency noise can reduce the expression of GDNF in temple lobe of AD model rat.</p>
