Abstract:
Objective To explore the changes on BDNF mRNA in transected spinal cord and associated motor cortex and skeleton muscle following cord injury in rats.Methods 20 adult Sprague Dawleys rats were performed spinal cord transected operation at T11 level,then rats in each group(n=5) were sacrificed on 1,3,7 and 14 days post operation respectively.Other 5 rats were used as normal control without operation.The tissues from the rostral,caudal segments near injury site,cerebral cortex and linea obliqua tibiae were harvested.Total RNA was extracted with Trizol reagent separately.The BDNF mRNA expression in each group was detected by RT-PCR.Results(1)BDNF positive bands were seen in the tissues of the rostral,caudal segments near injury site,cerebral cortex and linea obliqua tibiae.Moreover,BDNF level in cerebral cortex is more than in the spinal cord at normal control(P
