RESUMEN

The 18. 5 kD myelin basic protein (MBP) isoform interacts with phospholipids and its role has been thought to maintain the stability and compactness of the myelin sheath structure. In this study, we describe the statistical thermodynamic theory of certain concentration effects on MBP in the majormyelin lipid (1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (POPC), 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethano-lamine (POPE), and 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phospho-L-serine(POPS)) monolayers at the air/ subphase interface via the Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) technique. A simple statistical mechanical theory is established that predicts the interaction between proteins and phosphatehead groups at low surface pressures and the second virial coefficient dependences for the PC, PE, and PS head groups are illustrated. Two-dimensional virial equation of state (2D-VES) suggested that the interaction in the monolayer structure at the MBP-myelin interface is a repulsive force, and it induces a phase change in the monolayer. This is consistent with atomic force microscope (AFM) observations of domain and aggregate structures as well as with changes in the surface morphology induced by MBP. These analyses pertaining to membrane structures will provide a theoretical and experimental basis for the establishment of the myelin membrane modeling system.

RESUMEN

Objective To study the effect of rutin (Rut) on the expression of myelin basic protein (MBP) and myelin protein lipoprotein (PLP) in corpus callosum of rats infected with acrylamide(ACR). Methods Thirty-two SD adult male rats were randomly divided into 4 groups:control,20 mg/ kg acrylamide poisoning group (ACR), 100 mg/ kg Rut protection group (R1+ACR), 200 mg/ kg Rut protection group (R2+ACR),8 in each group,and were given gastric gavage for 21 days. The changes of the rats’ gait were recorded weekly; Immunohistochemistry and Western blotting were used to detect the changes in the expression levels of MBP and PLP in each group of rats. Results The gait score results showed that the gait score of the ACR group increased with the extension of exposure time compared with the control group. The gait score of the R1+ACR group and R2+ACR group also showed an increase trend compared with the control group, but the gait score was significantly lower than that of the ACR group (P<0. 05). Immunohistochemistry and Western blotting results showed that the expression of MBP and PLP in the corpus callosum of the ACR group was significantly decreased compared with the control group (P<0. 01), while the expression of MBP and PLP in the R1+ACR group and R2+ACR group increased (P<0. 05). Conclusion Rutin has a protective effect on myelin sheath in rats infected with acrylamide, which may be related to the inhibition of MBP and PLP in corpus callosum induced by ACR infection.

RESUMEN

Sixty-four healthy Wistar rats(18 days old),weighting 30 ~ 40 g,were randomly divided into two groups:control group and lipopolysaccharide(LPS) group. LPS group was intraperitoneally injected with 5 mg/ kg LPS to prepare rat sepsis model. The control group received intraperitoneal injection of saline of equal volume. All surving animals were anesthetized at the set time 2 h,4 h,6 h and 12 h after administration(8 rats at each time point),and craniotomy after taking blood from the heart. Myelin injury was staining by luxol fast blue. Immunohistochemical staining and Western blot were used to detect the expression of myelin basic protein(MBP) in rat brain at different time points. The expression of the MBP protein in serum detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay( ELISA). Results Observed under light microscope after luxol fast blue staining,the myelin sheath of the white matter in the brain was disordered,sparse and stained lightly from 6 to 12 hours in LPS group. Western blot analysis and immunohistochemical test results showed that the expression of MBP protein in the LPS group was decreased compared with the control group at 2 h,4 h and 6 h after LPS administration ( P < 0. 05). The expression of MBP protein in LPS group at 12 h was not significantly different from that in the control group(P > 0. 05). The serum ELISA results showed that the serum MBP levels in the LPS group increased at 2 h,4 h,6 h and 12 h after LPS administration(P < 0. 05). Conclusion In rat sepsis model,MBP protein expression in the white matter decreases,serum MBP protein content increases,and the decreasing of MBP protein expression is associated with matter myelin injury.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the effects of different doses of propofol on myelin basic protein (MBP) synthesis and myelination of oligodendrocytes in neonatal SD rats.@*METHODS@#A total of 57 neonatal SD rats (7 days old) were randomly divided into control group (=13), vehicle (fat emulsion) group (=5), and 25, 50 and 100 mg/kg propofol groups (=13 in each group). Eight hours after a single intraperitoneal injection of propofol or the vehicle, the rats were examined for expressions of mRNA, caspase-3 mRNA, cleaved caspase-3 and MBP in the brain tissues using qPCR and Western blotting. Immunofluorescence assay was used to detect the apoptosis of the oligodendrocytes at 8 h after the injection and the myelination of the corpus callosum and internal capsule at 24 h.@*RESULTS@#Compared with the control group, the neonatal rats with propofol injections showed significantly down-regulated expressions of mRNA and MBP protein in the brain tissue ( < 0.05). Propofol dose-dependently increased the transcription level of caspase-3 and the protein levels of cleaved caspase-3 at 8 h after the injection ( < 0.05). Propofol injection significantly increased the apoptosis of the oligodendrocytes, and the effect was significantly stronger in 50 and 100 mg/kg groups than in 25 mg/kg group ( < 0.05). At 24 h after propofol injection, myelin formation was significantly decreased in the corpus callosum of the neonatal rats in 100 mg/kg propofol group and in the internal capsule in 50 and 100 mg/kg groups ( < 0.05).@*CONCLUSIONS@#In neonatal SD rats, propofol can dose-dependently promote oligodendrocyte apoptosis, decrease MBP expressions in the brain, and suppress myelin formation in the corpus callosum and the internal capsule.

RESUMEN

In this study, we observed chronological changes in the immunoreactivity and expression level of myelin basic protein (MBP), one of the most abundant proteins in the central nervous system, in the hippocampus of Zucker diabetic fatty (ZDF) rats and their control littermates (Zucker lean control; ZLC). In the ZLC group, body weight steadily increased with age; the body weight of the ZDF group, however, peaked at 30 weeks of age, and subsequently decreased. Based on the changes of body weight, animals were divided into the following six groups: early (12-week), middle (30-week), and chronic (52-week) diabetic groups and their controls. MBP immunoreactivity was found in the alveus, strata pyramidale, and lacunosum-moleculare of the CA1 region, strata pyramidale and radiatum of the CA3 region, and subgranular zone, polymorphic layer, and molecular layer of the dentate gyrus. MBP immunoreactivity was lowest in the hippocampus of 12-week-old rats in the ZLC group, and highest in 12-week-old rats in the ZDF group. Diabetes increased MBP levels in the 12-week-old group, while MBP immunoreactivity decreased in the 30-week-old group. In the 52-week-old ZLC and ZDF groups, MBP immunoreactivity was detected in the hippocampus, similar to the 30-week-old ZDF group. Western blot results corroborated with immunohistochemical results. These results suggested that changes in the immunoreactivity and expression of MBP in the hippocampus might be a compensatory response to aging, while the sustained levels of MBP in diabetic animals could be attributed to a loss of compensatory responses in oligodendrocytes.

RESUMEN

Objective To explore the effects of two routes of melatonin (MT) administration including intraperitoneal and caudal vein injection on the behavior,histopathology and the expression of myelin basic protein (MBP) and active caspase-3 protein in focal cerebral ischemic rats.Methods 84 male Sprangue-Dawley rats were randomly divided into normal control group (CON,n=12),middle cerebral artery occlusion group(MCAO,n=24),MT-intraperitoneal group (n=24) and MT-intravenous injection group (n=24) by random number table.Twenty-four hours after ischemia reperfusion (IR),Morris water maze was used to observe the effects of two routes of MT administration on behavior in focal cerebral ischemic rats.7 d after IR,MBP immunohistochemical and hematoxylin eosin (HE) staining were used to examine the expression of MBP in striatum and histopathological changes in hippocampal CA1 region.24 h,72 h and 7 d after IR,the expression of active caspase-3 in hippocampal CA1 region was observed by immunohistochemical staining.Results The average escape latencies in Morris water maze in MT-intravenous injection group at different time points were all lower than those of the MT-intraperitoneal,and they were all lower than those of the MCAO group.Swimming time percentage of target quadrant in MT-intravenous injection group were higher than those of the MT-intraperitoneal,and they were all higher than those of the MCAO group (all P<0.01);7 d after IR,the results of HE staining showed that the hippocampus cells in MCAO group were disarranged with hyperchromatic nucleus and cytoplasm.More hippocampal cells were observed in MT-intraperitoheal and MT-intravenous injection groups,and they were relatively well arranged.The optical density (OD)of MBP in MT-intravenous injection group (105.60±4.04) was significantly higher than those in MCAO group (95.60±2.07) and MT-intraperitoneal injection group (98.00±4.18) (both P<0.01).Immunohistochemical results showed that the number of active caspase-3 positive cells in MT-intravenous injection group ((116.93± 12.58)/mm2,(130.16±21.22)/mm2,(88.25±7.80)/mm2) at each time point were significantly lower than those in MT-intraperitoneal injection group ((156.64± 32.54)/mm2,(176.49± 17.44)/mm2,(127.96±16.73)/mm2) (all P<0.05).At the time points of 24 h and 72 h after IR,there were less active caspase-3 positive cells in MT-intraperitoneal and MT-intravenous injection group compared with those in MCAO group((273.56±32.54)/mm2,(288.63±35.17)/mm2)(all P<0.01).Conclusion MT administration by both intraperitoneal and intravenous injection can significantly improve the behavior and attenuate the histopathology and white matter damage,and reduce the cell apoptosis in hippocampal CA1 region in focal cerebral ischemic rats,and the therapeutic effects of MT-intravenous injection are better than MT-intraperitoneal injection.

RESUMEN

La encefalomielitis aguda diseminada (EMAD) es un trastorno neurológico caracterizado por inflamación del cerebro y médula espinal causada por un daño a la mielina, afectando al sistema nervioso central de manera difusa. Esta afección puede manifestarse de manera espontánea o secundaria a infecciones o a vacunación. La mayoría de las veces evoluciona de manera monofásica con manifestaciones clínicas inespecíficas, por lo que la sospecha diagnóstica es fundamental. La EMAD es la causa más frecuente de afectación de sustancia blanca. La incidencia es mayor en la edad prepuberal con una incidencia de aproximadamente 0,2-0,4 casos/100000 habitantes año. Tiene predominio estacional, siendo más frecuente en los meses de invierno y primavera. Afecta más a varones. A continuación presentaremos nuestra experiencia con un caso sin diagnóstico previo de esta excepcional y poco frecuente patología el cual se convirtió en un reto diagnóstico(AU)


Acute disseminated encephalomyelitis ADEM is a neurological disorder characterized by inflammation of the brain and spinal cord caused by damage to the myelin, affecting diffusely the central nervous system. This condition can appear spontaneously or secondary to infections or vaccination. Most of the time it evolves in a monophasic manner with nonspecific clinical manifestations, so that he diagnostic suspicion is fundamental. ADEM is the most frequent cause of white matter involvement. The incidence is higher in the prepubertal age with an incidence of approximately 0.2-0.4 cases / 100,000 inhabitants per year. It has a seasonal predominance, being more frequent in the winter and spring months. It affects more males. Below we present our experience with a case without previous diagnosis of this rare pathology which became a diagnostic challenge(AU)

RESUMEN

Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is one form of diabetes affect approximately 7 % of pregnancies. Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is a common complication of diabetes that is associated with loss of nerve fibers, myelin abnormalities and significant decrease in the expression of myelin basic protein (MBP) in peripheral nerves. This study was done to determine the effect of induced diabetes during pregnancy on sciatic nerve in adult rat offspring. In this study, wistar rats' dams were allocated to control and diabetic groups. Diabetic rats were received 40 mg/kg/body weight of streptozotocin (STZ) on the first day of gestation. Six offspring of each group were randomly selected on 12 weeks postnatal and histopathological changes in their nerve tissue were examined through H&E staining and transmission electron microscopy. Furthermore, the expression of MBP in sciatic nerve was examined by immunohistochemistry. We found that the myelinated fiber number of sciatic nerve in offspring of diabetic rats was reduced compared to the controls, but this difference was not significant. The average thickness of the myelin sheath of sciatic nerve fibers in the control and GDM was 97.1±0.1and 94.1±0.2 µm, respectively that the difference was not statistically significant. The expression of MBP protein in the myelin sheath of both groups was similar. TEM results showed that myelin sheath of diabetic offspring had not any changes compared to control. Atrophy of axons and schwannocytus (Schwann cells) alterations were not observed in diabetic offspring. Induction of diabetes during pregnancy reduced the number of nerve fibers and thickness of the myelin sheath. But it has no effect on MBP expression and schwannocytus morphology.


La diabetes mellitus gestacional (DMG) es una forma de diabetes que afecta aproximadamente al 7 % de los embarazos. La neuropatía periférica diabética (NPD) es una complicación frecuente de la diabetes asociada a la pérdida de fibras nerviosas, anomalías de la mielina y disminución significativa de la expresión de la proteína básica de mielina (PBM) en los nervios periféricos. Este estudio se realizó para determinar el efecto de la diabetes inducida durante el embarazo en el nervio ciático en descendientes de ratas adultas. Las ratas Wistar madres fueron asignadas a los grupos control y diabéticas. Las ratas diabéticas recibieron 40 mg/kg/peso corporal de estreptozotocina (STZ) el primer día de gestación. Seis descendientes de cada grupo fueron seleccionados al azar en la semana 12 postnatal y los cambios histopatológicos en su tejido nervioso se examinaron a través de tinción H-E y microscopía electrónica de transmisión. Además, la expresión de PBM en el nervio ciático se examinó mediante inmunohistoquímica. Se encontró que el número de fibras mielinizadas de nervio ciático en descendientes de ratas diabéticas se redujo en comparación con los controles, pero esta diferencia no fue significativa. El espesor medio de la vaina de mielina de las fibras nerviosas ciáticas en el control y DMG fue de 97,1±0,1 y 94,1±0,2 µm, respectivamente, y la diferencia no fue estadísticamente significativa. La expresión de la proteína PBM en la vaina de mielina de ambos grupos fue similar. Los resultados del TEM mostraron que la vaina de mielina de la descendencia diabética no tuvo ningún cambio en comparación con el control. La atrofia de los axones y las alteraciones de los schwannocitos (células de Schwann) no se observaron en descendientes diabéticos. La inducción de diabetes durante el embarazo redujo el número de fibras nerviosas y el grosor de la vaina de mielina.

RESUMEN

Myelin degeneration is one of the characteristics of aging and degenerative diseases. This study investigated age-related alterations in expression of myelin basic protein (MBP) in the hippocampal subregions (dentate gyrus, CA2/3 and CA1 areas) of gerbils of various ages; young (1 month), adult (6 months) and aged (24 months), using western blot and immunohistochemistry. Western blot results showed tendencies of age-related reductions of MBP levels. MBP immunoreactivity was significantly decreased with age in synaptic sites of trisynaptic loops, perforant paths, mossy fibers, and Schaffer collaterals. In particular, MBP immunoreactive fibers in the dentate molecular cell layer (perforant path) was significantly reduced in adult and aged subjects. In addition, MBP immunoreactive mossy fibers in the dentate polymorphic layer and in the CA3 striatum radiatum was significantly decreased in the aged group. Furthermore, we observed similar age-related alterations in the CA1 stratum radiatum (Schaffer collaterals). However, the density of MBP immunoreactive fibers in the dentate granular cell layer and CA stratum pyramidale was decreased with aging. These findings indicate that expression of MBP is age-dependent and tissue specific according to hippocampal layers.

RESUMEN

Objective To explore the influence of minimally invasive puncture drainage on blood brain barrier (BBB) function and its mechanism.Methods Ninety-two patients with hypertensive intra-cerebral hemorrhage (HICH) in the Department of Neurosurgery of Jiaxing Affiliated Second Hospital of Zhejiang Province were divided into a control group and an observation group, according to random number table method, 46 cases in each group. In the control group, the conventional craniotomy was performed, while in the observation group, minimally invasive puncture drainage was carried out to remove the hematoma. The National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) were used to evaluate the neural function, the level of serum myelin basic protein (MBP) was detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), the central nervous specific serum protein S100 level was measured by electrochemical luminescence method, the albumin levels in serum and cerebrospinal fluid were determined by automatic biological analyzer, and the BBB index was calculated. After 14 days of surgery, the curative effect and incidence of complications of two groups were observed.Results After surgery, the NIHSS scores of two groups were obviously lower than those before surgery, and the degree of descent in observation group was more significant than that in the control group (score: 3.68±2.39 vs. 5.43±3.89,P < 0.05); after surgery, the levels of MBP, S100, albumin in cerebrospinal fluid and BBB in two groups were higher than those before surgery [MBP (μg/L): 3.02±0.28 vs. 3.81±0.29, S100 (μg/L): 0.95±0.24 vs. 1.34±0.27, cerebrospinal fluid albumin (μg/L): 9.89±0.78 vs. 21.43±1.14, BBB index: 0.22±0.04 vs. 0.48±0.05], the differences being statistically significant (allP < 0.05), but the change values in the observation group were less significant than those in the control group. The total effective rate in observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group [84.78% (39/46) vs. 65.22% (30/46),χ2 = 4.696,P = 0.030]. The incidence of wound infection, gastrointestinal bleeding in observation group was markedly lower than that in the control group [16.67% (6/46) vs. 36.96% (17/46), χ2 = 4.120,P = 0.042].Conclusion The minimally invasive puncture drainage has unequivocal clinical curative effect in treatment of patients with HICH, it can protect the nerve and BBB functions and reduce the incidence of complications.

RESUMEN

Objective To explore the protective effect of miconazole on white matter damage (WMD) in neonatal rats. Methods Three-day-old neonatal SD rats were randomly divided into sham group, WMD model group, 10 mg/(kg·d) miconazole group and 40 mg/(kg·d) miconazole group with 15 rats each. Rats in WMD model group were subjected to the ligation of right carotid artery, and then kept in a chamber with 6% oxygen and 94% nitrogen for 80 min to establish the white matter damage model. The rats in miconazole group were intraperitoneally injected with different doses (10 and 40mg/kg) of miconazole, dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), for five consecutive days, and rats in WMD model group were injected with the same volume of DMSO. Myelin basic protein (MBP) of white matter was detected by immunofluorescence staining and western blot. Myelin sheaths of corpus callosum were observed by transmission electron microscopy. Weight changes of rats were compared among groups. Results Immunofluorescence staining and western blot showed that, after treatment with miconazole, the MBP expression level of corpus callosum was higher than in WMD model group (P<0.05). In WMD model group, the myelin sheath of corpus callosum had loose structure and a large number of small vacuoles with decreased thickness of myelin sheath. After treatment with miconazole, myelinolysis induced by anoxia and ischemia could be improved significantly. The increase in weight of rats in WMD model group was significantly less than that in sham group. And after miconazole treatment, the rate of weight gain of rats was increased. Conclusion Miconazole can significantly reduce the brain white matter damage induced by anoxia and ischemia through promoting myelination, and then improves the growth and development in rats.

RESUMEN

Objective To investigate the ultrastructural alteration in brain tissues as well as the expression of bone morphogenetic protein(BMP) 4 and its effects on regulating myelination in the process of white matter injury development.Methods A total of 152 Sprague-Dawley newborn rats(3 days old) were randomly divided into white matter injury group(n=76) or control group(n=76).The white matter injury model was established by ligation of the right common carotid artery and hypoxic exposure(8% O2 and 92%N2),and samples were collected at 3d,7d,14d and 21d after operation.Morphological changes of the brain tissues were observed under a light microscope,while myelination was analyzed using a transmission electron microscope.The expression and location of BMP4 and myelin basic protein(MBP),a marker for myelination,was detected by immunohistochemistry staining,expression levels of BMP4 and MBP proteins were analyzed by Western blotting,and BMP4 mRNA expression was measured by real-time PCR.Results Observed under the light microscope,the cellular structure was clear,fibers arranged closely and orderly in the white matter of the control group.Whereas in the white matter injury group,sparse cells,loose mesh shaped white matter,and disorderly oriented fibers were observed.In the control group,myelin sheath had regular morphology,uniform density,and same thickness,observed using the transmission electron microscope.While in the white matter injury group,the myelin sheath was loosened,thinned,lamellar separated,and boundary obscured.Using immunohistochemistry staining,Western blot,and real-time PCR analyses,it was found that the protein and mRNA expression of BMP4 had no significant change with the increase of age in the control group,while it was rapidly increased with the extending of ischemic time in the white matter injury group.Comparing with the control group,the expression of BMP4 was significantly increased since 3d after operation in the white matter injury group(P<0.05),and the difference between two groups became more significant with the extending of ischemic time.The expression of MBP protein was analyzed by immunohistochemistry staining and Western blot,and a gradual increase was found in both groups with the increase of age.However,the expression of MBP protein was significantly decreased on 14d and 21d after operation in the white matter injury group compared with the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion Myelination disorders exists in white matter injury induced by ischemia-anoxemia.Meanwhile,the expression of BMP4 is significantly increased in the white matter injury group,indicating a possibility that BMP4 involves in the regulation of myelination disorders in white matter injury.
