Effect of Angelica on Proliferation of Neural Stem Cells in Dentate Gyrus of Juvenile Rats after Intrauterin Hypoxia / 实用儿科临床杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the effect of intrauterin hypoxia on proliferation of neural stem cells(NSCs)in dentate gyrus of juve-nile rats and the interventive effects on NSCs.Methods Thirty-nine adult female SD rats bred at laboratory.At 14 days of pregnancy,conceiving female SD rats were randomly divided into 3 groupscontrol group(n=12),hypoxia group(n=12)and angelica group(n=15);the conceiving rats were put into 3 gases incubator(130 mL/L O2,temperature 25 ℃,relative humidity 70%-75%,CO2 0.3-0.4 mL/L),hypoxia times(2 h/d),hypoxia days(pregnant the 14th d,15th d,16th d)to make intrauterin hypoxia model.In hypoxia group,1 hour before hypoxia,the rats were injected saline from caudal vein,saline for 7 days;In angelica group,the rats were injected angelica injection,angelica for 7 days,other steps were same.In control group,the rats were injected saline,saline for 7 days,no hypoxia.Producing naturally,after born 40 days,took juvenile rats' brains from every group randomlycontrol group(n=12),hypoxia group(n=12)and angelica group(n=15),then immobilization,paraffin imbedding,slicing,common immunohistochemistry staining were used to detect the Nestin positive substances.Nestin positive substances expression were observed under the microscope(?200).Statistical analysis was used.Results The average of positive staining area(Area)of Nestin of hypoxic group were larger than that of control group,it had significance(P0.05),the average of density and IOD of 3 groups had no significances.Conclusion Hypoxia environment(130 mL/L)can promote NSCs of juvenile rats to proliferate,angelica injection can reduce the NSCs to proliferate after intrauterin hypoxia.
