Acta Anatomica Sinica 1954;0(02):-
The afferent connections to the periaqueductal gray in the rat were examined by means of retrograde axonal transport method using horseradish peroxidase (HRP).The microinjection syringe needle or micro-electrophoretic pipette was inserted stereotaxically by an oblique approach through the cerebellum. HRP was introduced into the dorsal, lateral, ventrolateral areas of periaqueductal gray or periventricular gray of ventriculus Ⅲ at posterior commissure level respectively.The results were as follows:1. Injections of HRP in the dorsal area of periaqueductal gray(PAG).Numerous labeled cells were consistently found in the paraventricular nucleus, dorsomedial and ventromedial hypothalamic nuclei, posterior hypothalamic nucleus, medial mamillary nucleus, zona incerta, lateral and ventral nuclei of periaqueductal gray, superior colliculus, inferior colliculus, dorsal raphe nucleus and periventricular gray of ventriculus Ⅳ. In some cases, a smaller number of cells was found in the zona reticulata of the substantia nigra, and lateral hypothalamic nucleus. In one case, the enzyme was injected into the dorsal area of PAG, which diffused to the superior and inferior colliculi, resulted in labeling of Forel's field and reticular nucleus of thalamus.2. Injection of HRP in the lateral area of PAG.HRP-positive cells were observed within the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis, paraventricular nucleus, anterior hypothalamic nucleus, ventro-medial hypothalamic nucleus, medial thalamic nucleus, nucleus interstitialis magnocellularis, commissural posteriors, zona incerta, ventral nucleus of PAG, zona reticulata of substantia nigra, formatio reticularis of mesencephalon, dorsal raphe nucleus, and periventricular gray of ventriculus Ⅲ and Ⅳ. In some cases, a small number of cells was found in the supraoptic nucleus, superior and inferior colliculi.3. Injection of HRP in the ventrolateral area of PAG.In all cases the greatest number of HRP-positive neurons was shown in the supraoptic nucleus, paraventricular nucleus, periventricular gray of ventriculus Ⅲ, lateral nucleus of PAG, zona reticulata of substantia nigra, dorsal raphe nucleus and locus coeruleus. The labeled cells were mainly located ipsilaterally. But the labeling of supraoptic nucleus was observed bilaterally. In one case the enzyme diffused to the reticular formation, a smaller number of cells was found in nucleus cuneifomis and mesencephalic reticular formation of more caudal position.4. Injection of HRP in the periventricular gray of ventriculus Ⅲ.Following the injections of HRP in the periventricular gray of ventriculus Ⅲ, numerous HRP-positive cells were consistently observed in the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis, supraoptic nucleus, paraventricular nucleus, ventromedial nucleus of hypothalamus, medial nucleus pars medialis of thalamus, zona incerta, ventral nucleus of PAG, zona reticulata of substantia nigra, dorsal raphe nucleus and locus coeruleus.
2.Expression of hypoxia-inducible factor 1 alpha, vascular endothelial growth factor and angiopoie-tin-2 in tissues of condyloma acuminatum in pregnant women
Chinese Journal of Dermatology 2009;42(5):324-326
Objective To investigate the expression and significance of hypoxia-inducible factor 1 alpha (HIF- 1α), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and angiopoietin-2 (Ang-2) in tissues of condy- loma acuminatum (CA) in pregnant women. Methods Tissue specimens were obtained from the lesions of 30 pregnant women with CA and 30 non-pregnant women with CA, and from the vulva of 15 normal preg- nant women. By immunohistochemical staining, the expressions of HIF -1α, VEGF and Ang-2 were detected in these specimens. Results The expression rates of HIF -1α,VEGF and Ang-2 were 86.67%, 93.33% and 83.33% in pregnant women with CA, respectively, 63.33%, 66.67% and 53.33% in non-pregnant women with CA, respectively, and 0, 6.67% and 0 in normal women, respectively. Enhanced expressions of HIF -1α,VEGF and Ang-2 were observed in pregnant women with CA compared with the latter two groups (P < 0.05). In pregnant women with CA, a significant correlation was noted between the expression of HIF -1α and VEGF (r = 0.412, P < 0.01) and between the expression of Ang-2 and VEGF (r = 0.460, P < 0.01). Further more, the expression of HIF -1α, VEGF and Ang-2 positively correlated with each other in non-preg- nant women with CA. Conclusion In tissues of CA in pregnant women, HIF-1α,Ang-2 and VEGF are over expressed, which may be related to angiogenesis.
3.Interference by baicalin in the formation of photoproduct in epidermal cells from BALB/c mice irradiated with ultroviolet B
Chinese Journal of Dermatology 2009;42(2):132-134
Objective To investigate the formation and elimination of photoproduct in epidermal cells from BALB/c mice irradiated with ultroviolet B, and to observe the interference by baicalin in it. Methods BALB/c mice were randomized into 6 groups, I.e., blank control group receiving no exposure or protection, baicalin group receiving protection with baicalin, acetone group receiving acetone pretreatment, UVB group receiving UVB irradiation but no protection, UVB + baicalin group receiving UVB irradiation and protection with baicalin, UVB + acetone group receiving acetone pretreatment and UVB irradiation. Baicalin was applied at 1 mg/cm2 on the back of mice for 3 days in baicalin group and UVB + baicalin group. Twenty hours after the last application, UVB irradiation of 180 mJ/cm2 was given to mice in UVB group and UVB + baicalin group. Skin specimens were obtained from the tested sites at 1, 24, and 48 hours, respectively, after the irradiation. Cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPD) was detected in the specimens with immunohistochemical staining and Southwestern dot blotting. Results CPD was observed only in irradiated mice. The relative content of CPD in epidermal cells 1, 24 and 48 hours after the irradiation was (100±5.22)%, (75.34±8.22)% and (42.11±3.24)%, respectively, in UVB group, (81.45±5.22)%, (32.14±6.33)% and ( 5.21±3.15 )% respectively, in UVB+baicalin group, ( 106±8.21 )%, (70.23±4.13 )% and (41.22±4.21)%, respectively, in UVB + acetone group. A significant difference was observed in the relative content of CPD between UVB group and UVB + baicalin group at 1, 24 and 48 hours after the irradiation (P<0.05, 0.01, 0.01, respectively). Conclusions Taken together, these results suggest that topical baicalin application mitigates DNA photo-damage. Baicalin is therefore a promising protective substance against UVB radiation.
