Abstract:
ObjectiveTo investigate the early diagnostic value of serum level of myelin basic protein (MBP) on spinal cord injury (SCI).Methods54 rabbits were divided randomly into slight, moderate and severe SCI groups, and SCI degrees of each group were judged by cortical somatosensory evoked potential, histopathologic examination and Tarlov′s score. ELISA was used to determine the serum levels of MBP before and after SCI.ResultsThe serum levels of MBP of rabbits in three groups were significantly different at 24th, 48th and 72nd hour after injured (P<0.05), but there were not differences at 7th day (P>0.05).ConclusionThe serum level of MBP can be used as a early diagnostic marker for SCI.
