Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2007;0(07):-
BACKGROUND: Being a kind of anti-oxidizing agent, vitamin E has the function of eliminating free radical and reducing the free radical injury of antioxidant enzyme in sports, which can alleviate appearance of fatigue and improve sports ability. OBJECTIVE: Though the intervention of vitamin E upon exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD), the study was designed to investigate the effect of vitamin E on the morphology of EIMD and to provide the experimental basis of research on morphology and mechanism of EIMD. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: A randomized block animal experiment was performed in the Key Laboratory of General Administration of Sport of China in Shenyang Sport University and the Microelectronic Laboratory of Chinese Medical University from May to October 2007. MATERIALS: A total of sixteen male Sprague Dawley rats were randomly divided into four groups: control, exercise, normal saline, and vitamin E groups. METHODS: The rats in the vitamin E group was administered (i.p.) 1-1.2 mg/kg vitamin E capsules once every eight hours four times one day before experiment, and the amount of injecting volume was 4 mL/kg. The rats in the normal saline group were administered (i.p.) normal saline with same volume and time. The rats in the exercise group only took some exercises without administering vitamin E or normal saline. The rats in the control group received not any intervention and treatment. The injury model was established by taking a bout of exhaustive downhill running. The triceps brachii muscles extracted from the right side of rats after exercise were prepared for electron microscope specimens. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The arrangement of myofibrils and sarcomeres, the changes of Z-line, and the morphology changes of cell membranes, nucleus, mitochondria, sarcoplasmic reticulum, transverse tubule, and satellite cells were observed. RESULTS: In the vitamin E group, the muscular ultrastructures of EIMD were improved obviously. Though the sarcoplasmic reticulum showed edema, the regular arrangement of myofibrils was observed. The light and dark zone of Z-line and nucleus appeared clearly. CONCLUSION: Supplement of vitamin E could decrease the muscular morphological changes of EIMD after eccentric exercise. The arrangement of myofibrils was more regular and sarcomeres appeared more clearly. The function might relate to the antioxidation and promoting synthesis of proteins of vitamin E.

They were divided into three groups according to different periods of pregnancy with 80 women in each group: first trimester, second trimester, and third trimester. Additional 80 non-pregnant women who concurrently received health examination were included as controls. Routine blood test results were compared among groups. The incidence of microcytic anemia and macrocytic anemia at different periods of pregnancy was determined.Results:The incidence of microcytic anemia in the third trimester group [3.75% (3/80)] was significantly lower than that in the first trimester group [26.25% (21/80)] and the second trimester group [25.00% (20/80), χ2 = 15.882, 14.675, both P < 0.05]. The incidence of macrocytic anemia in the third trimester group [22.50% (18/80)] was significantly higher than that in the first trimester group [1.25% (1/80)] and the second trimester group [3.75% (3/80), χ2 = 17.260, 12.333, both P < 0.05]. Red blood cell count and hemoglobin and hematocrit levels in the peripheral blood of pregnant women in the first, second and third trimester groups were significantly lower compared with the control group ( t = 8.579, 16.781, 13.964, 10.154, 15.891 and 15.512, all P < 0.05). Red blood cell count, hemoglobin and hematocrit levels in the second trimester group were significantly lower than those in the other three groups (all P < 0.05). In the first, second and third trimester groups, white blood cell count and percentage of neutrophils were increased, and platelet count was decreased ( t = 23.085, 24.187, 27.941, 15.722, 22.153, 13.277, 31.517, 32.901, 32.227, all P < 0.05) compared with the control group. The increases in white blood cell count and percentage of neutrophils in the second trimester group were significantly greater than those in the first and third trimester groups, and platelet count in the third trimester group was significantly lower than that in the first and second trimester groups (all P < 0.05). Conclusion:Monitoring routine blood indexes can help assess the health status of pregnant women. Adjusting nutrition program in time can decrease the incidence of adverse pregnancy outcomes.

Objective To observe the expression of matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) and the regulation of neuregulin-1β (NRG-1β) in brain tissue in rats following cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury. Methods The animal models of middle cerebral artery occlusion/reperfusion (MCAO/R) were established by a monofilament method from left external-internal carotid artery in 200 adult healthy male Wistar rats. The rat models in the treatment group (75 rats) and in control group (75 rats) were injected with 1.5%NRG-1β 5 μl and 0.1 mol/L PBS 5 μl, respectively, from internal carotid artery (ICA). The cerebral infarct volume was measured by TFC stain, the apoptosis was identified with in situ TUNEL method, and the expression of MMP-9 was detected by immunohistochemical and immunofluorescent double staining and Western blotting analysis. Results Cerebral ischemia-reperfusion can induce apoptosis and expression of MMP-9 in cerebral cortex and striatum. With the ischemic time prolonging, the number of apototic cells in cortex from ischemic 0, 0. 5, 1.0, 1.5 and 2. 0 h increased from 1.78 ± 0. 15,5. 78 ± 0. 51,10. 35 ± 0. 77, 21.50 ± 1.19 to 32. 00 ± 1.78, while the number of apoptotic cells in stratum from ischemic also increased significantly from 1.46±0.21, 4. 12±0.54, 7.33±0.71, 16.54 ± 1.63 to 19.03± 1.44 (t =9.31- 37.78, P < 0. 01) and the expression of MMP-9 increased significantly (t = 7.73-27.75, P < 0. 01) in the control group. With NRG-1β treatment, the number of apoptotie cells in cortex from ischemic 0, 0. 5,1.0, 1.5 and 2. 0 h reduced from 1.66±0. 11,4. 80±0. 61,5.63±0. 56, 9.75±1.22 to 13.54 ±1.26; while the number of apoptotic cells in striatum from ischemic also decreased significantly from 1.34 ± 0. 14, 3.35 ± 0. 32, 4. 55± 0. 50, 7. 63 ±1.41 to 10. 46 ± 0. 98 (t = 2. 74-18. 93, P < 0. 05), the expression of MMP-9 decreased (t = 3.85-12. 09, P < 0. 01), and the infarct volume decreased significantly (t = 4. 645-13. 043,P < 0. 01) compared with those in the control group at the same timepoint and the corresponding region. Conclusions The expression of MMP-9 is increased after cerebral ischemia/ reperfusion, and it may contribute to the inflammatory reaction. NRG-1β might down-regulate the expression of MMP-9 to inhibit apoptosis inducing by inflammatory reaction in cerebral ischemic reperfusion.
