Objective To observe the course of motor related activation cortex after unilateral subcortical ischemic stroke. Methods6 healthy volunteers and 3 patients with solitary lacunar infarction in subcortical region underwent blood-oxygen level dependent functional MRI (BOLD-fMRI) as a block design of sequential finger tapping task. The data were analyzed with Statistical Parametric Mapping (SPM2). The activated voxels and the laterality index (LI) were calculated. The patients were assessed with the Fugl-Meyer Assessment of upper limb after scanning, and were scanned again 8 months after stroke. ResultsThe activated cortices in patients were more extensive than that of volunteers. In the early stage of stroke, the activation cortex involved the bilateral sensory motor cortex (SMC) in all the patients, but various in other regions. In the late stage, the ipsilateral activations decreased while the contralateral activation increased in SMC. The LI of hemisphere, SMC, and M1 is higher than the early stage. ConclusionThe motor related activation gradually localized to the contralateral SMC with motor function recovery.

Objectiive:The present study was designed to explore whether overexpression of human wild ?-synuclein in rat brain caused selective dopaminergic neuron loss in substantia nigra and aimed to find out a new method to make a rat model of Parkinson's disease(PD).Methods:The human wild ?-synuclein gene was induced into the rat brain by Adeno-Associated Virus(AAV) vector.The overexpression of ?-synuclein was detected by realtime PCR.The behavior of rats were recorded every 4 weeks after the viral particle injection.TH immunohistochemistry were performed at 4,8,12 and 16 weeks post-injection as well as the dopamine(DA),3,4-dihydroxypheny-lacetic acid(DOPAC) of striatum were determined by high performance liquid chromatography coupled with electrochemical detection.Results:Realtime PCR results revealed a significant overexpression of ?-synuclein in the injected hemisphere.By 8 weeks post injection,a significant loss of the dopaminergic neurons was observed.34% of the dopaminergic neurons were lost after 12 weeks,and about 60% cells loss after 16 weeks.The DA and DOPAC levels in the striatum decreased about 15% 12 weeks after injecting viral particle carried ?-synuclein gene and 30% decreased after 16 weeks.The AAV-?-synuclein-treated rats developed a type of motor impairment,i.e.,head position bias,compatible with this magnitude of nigrostriatal damage.Conclusion:All the results showed that overexpression of human wild ?-synuclein caused selective dopaminergic neuron loss and mimic a symptom of human PD in rats.This may be a new methed to make rat PD model which can offer new opportunities for the study of pathogenetic mechanismsand exploration of new therapeutic targets of particular relevance to human PD.

Objective To study the long-term neurodevelopment in term neonates with hyperbilirubinemia and explore the predictive value of cerebrospinal fluid neuron specific enolase (CSF-NSE) on long-term neurodevelopment outcome.Methods A mental and psychomotor scale for 0-4 years old was performed to evaluate the intelligence development of 39 neonates with hyperbilirubinemia and 39 randomly selected healthy controls when they were at 3 to 24 months old. The former were tested for the level of CSF-NSE in jaundice climax.Results There was significant difference between 2 groups in total development quotient (DQ) tested at 3 month and 24 month old (P=0, 0.047). It was shown that the DQ scores for fine activity and social behavior were significantly lower in the study group than those in the control group (Pa=0). Furthermore, within the hyperbilirubinemia group, CSF-NSE was significantly associated with DQ of 3 month and 24 month old, while there was not association with TSB. The correlation coefficients were -0.46(P=0.04) and -0.32(P=0.047),respectively.Conclusions Hyperbilirubinemia may influence long-term neurodevelopment of term infants and CSF-NSE can predict this outcome.
