Abstract:
Objective To explore the expressions and changes of endogenous neural stem cells (ENSCs) and Notch-1 after acute spinal cord injury in adult rats,and to explore its role in the nerve regeneration process.Methods The 30 Sprague Dawley (SD) female rats (3-6 months) (300-350 g) were divided into control groups (n =5) and experimental group (n =25) by digital random method.The control group only accepted lamina decompression,and the experimental group was the spinal cord injury group.Five rats were drawn when at 1 d,3 d,1 w,2 w,and 4 w,then behavior,histology,immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence method were used to detect the proliferation and expression of endogenous neural stem cells and Notch-1 protein.Results Behavioral observation showed the experimental group rats were disfunction.Histological observation showed nerve fiber structure turbulence,edema and denaturation in the experimental group.Immunohistochemistry staining showed the Notch-1 expression every experimental group.Notch-1 positive cell peaked at 3 days.Immunofluorescence test showed,in the experimental group damage to segment the area surrounding the BrdU positive staining cells was significantly higher than the control group.Using three-dimensional quantitative study method detected in 1 w after spinal cord injury was the number of newborn cells mitosis,most about was about 75 times in the control group.Linear regression method was used to analyze the different time points after BrdU and Notch-1 protein expression positive area,the area of the results found that both into linear correlation.Conclusions The new born neurons after spinal cord injury in rats Notch-1 expression has a certain relevance.In addition,the expression of signal protein Notch-1,might be associated with early proliferation of ENSCs in rats.
