2.Poststroke depression
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2005;9(20):230-231
OBJECTIVE: Although the therapeutic method of stroke is progressed very quickly in recent years, the incidence of its post-depression is up to 40%. Poststroke depression many affect neural function recovery, for which, to understand it is advantageous of improving living quality of stroke patients.DATA SOURCE: The literatures relevant to poststroke depression were looked up from China medical nuclear journals and studies at home and abroad in recent 5 years on www.google.com, Medline. The Retrieval words: stroke, depression, incidence, relevant factors.STUDY SELECTION: Totally 42 relevant papers were selected on experimental and clinical studies on poststroke depression. The original literatures of non-randomized study were excluded and those of nonblind study were not excluded.DATA EXTRACTION: Of 42 papers, 10 papers were deleted because of repetition of various degrees and 32 papers were sorted out in category and 10 of those were selected as reference.DATA SYNTHESIS: The incidence of poststroke depression is about 40%, resulting from the co-factors of society, psychology and biology.It is viewed generally that the high risk phase of depression is in a couple of year after stroke and the duration of poststroke depression is various. The severity of neural functional deficits in recovery phase is affected by poststroke depression. Moderate and severe depression may delay the recovery of neural function and poststroke depression can also result in poor recovery of daily living capacity of patients, affect patients' cognition and increase the incidence of dementia. Concerning to clinical observation, a remarkable progression has been achieved on treatment of poststroke depression.CONCLUSION: The incidence of poststroke depression is very high,associated with multiple factors. Poststroke depression influences harmfully on neural function, cognition and daily living capacity. Active intervention and treatment provide a certain action on reducing the incidence of poststroke depression.

AIM: To investigate the pathological changes of motoneuron's function and morphology after root avulsion in order to study the neurobiology mechanism of motoneuron death. METHODS: Twenty female adult Sprague-Dawley rats, 200-300 g were used. The C 5-C 8, T 1 roots of the right brachial plexus were avulsed. All rats were killed 3 d, 5 d or 1 week after avulsion. One group of the C 5-C 8 spinal cords freeze sections (40 ?m thick) were collected for the NADPH-d histochemistry with neural red counterstained. Another group of the C 5-C 8 spinal cords freeze sections (40 ?m thick) were collected for the c-Jun immunocytochemistry stain. The paraffin sections (5 ?m thick) were collected for HE stain. The amount of NOS-positive and survival motoneurons was counted. The percentage of NOS expression and motoneuron survive were quantitatively analyzed considering the amount of contra lateral motoneurons as one hundred percent. RESULTS: The NOS expression rate was 0.74%?0.59% (3 d), 24.84%?6.73%(5 d), or 51.16%?8.67% (1 week), respectively. The survive rate was 93.00%?4.32% (3 d), 93.67%?5.27% (5 d), or 89.83%?2.65% (1 week), respectively. The motoneuron expressed c-Jun as early as 3 days after avulsion. The expression declined afterward until one week after avulsion. There was no significant change on the size of motoneuron. The nuclear membrane was still clear but some nuclei were not located in the middle of the cell body. There were some nucleoli with the chromatin condensation. CONCLUSION: The motoneuron NOS expression and cell death were increased within one week after spinal root avulsion. meanwhile, the c-jun expression was decreased. The NO/NOS may induce the motoneuron death by inhibiting the regenerating reactions of motoneuron after root avulsion injury.

Objective:To observe the clinical efficacy of Prof. Gao Yu-chun’s needling Yangming method for facial palsy, as well as to inherit and further develop the academic idea.
Methods:A total of 70 cases were randomly allocated into a treatment group (n=35) and a control group (n=35). Cases in the treatment group were treated with needling Yangming method, whereas cases in the control group were treated with traditional acupuncture method. The treatment was done once a day in both groups (6 times a week) for a total of 6 weeks. Then the therapeutic efficacies were evaluated before and after treatment using the House-Brackmann (H-B) scale and scores of signs and symptoms.
Results:After 2 weeks of treatment, patients in the treatment group obtained a better H-B score and recovery rate than those in the control group (P<0.05). After 4 weeks of treatment, the H-B score, scores of signs and symptoms and recovery rate in the treatment group were better than those in the control group (P<0.05,P<0.01,P<0.05). After 6 weeks of treatment, there were no between-group statistical differences in the above aspects (P>0.05).
Conclusion:Needling Yangming method can obtain a faster effect, a higher early-stage recovery rate and shorter course of treatment than traditional acupuncture method.

Objective To investigate the relationship between T?cell death?associated gene 8 ( TD?AG8) and endogenous neuron?protective mechanism against oxygen?glucose deprivation and restoration ( OGD∕R)?induced apoptosis in rat neurons. Methods The primary cortical neurons obtained from fetal rats were seeded in 6?well plates at a density of 1×105 cells∕ml and divided into 5 groups using a random number table: control group ( group C, n=24 ) , group OGD∕R ( n=48 ) , TDAG8 agonist BTB09089 group (group BTB, n=24), TDAG8?siRNA group ( group siRNA, n=24), and blank vehicle group ( group V, n=24) . The medium was replaced with glucose?and serum?free Locke′s buffer, and the neu?rons were exposed to 95% N2?5% CO2 in an air?tight incubator at 37℃ for 60 min followed by routine cul?ture to establish the model of OGD∕R. In BTB, siRNA and V groups, 20 μmol∕L TDAG8 agonist
BTB09089, 200 pmol∕L TDAG8?siRNA, and 6 μl∕200 μl transfection reagent were added, respectively, at 24 h before oxygen?glucose restoration. At 6 h of oxygen?glucose restoration, the neuronal viability and a?mount of lactic dehydrogenase ( LDH) released were measured, and the expression of TDAG8 and caspase?3 mRNA in neurons was detected by fluorescent quantitative real?time polymerase chain reaction. In group OGD∕R, the expression of TDAG8 and caspase?3 was measured by Western blot at 0, 3, 6, 12 and 24 h of oxygen?glucose restoration. In C, OGD∕R, BTB, siRNA and V groups, the expression of TDAG8, caspase?3 and p?Akt was detected at 6 h of oxygen?glucose restoration. Results In group OGD∕R, the ex?pression of TDAG8 was gradually up?regulated after oxygen?glucose restoration, and the expression of caspase?3 peaked at 6 h of oxygen?glucose restoration. Compared with group C, the neuronal viability was significantly decreased, the amount of LDH released was significantly increased, and the expression of TD?AG8 and caspase?3 protein and mRNA and p?Akt was significantly up?regulated in OGD∕R, V and siRNA groups ( P<0?05) . Compared with group OGD∕R, the expression of TDAG8 protein and mRNA and p?Akt was significantly up?regulated, the expression of caspase?3 protein and mRNA was significantly down?regu?lated, the neuronal viability was significantly increased, and the amount of LDH released was significantly decreased in group BTB, the expression of TDAG8 protein and mRNA and p?Akt was significantly down?regulated, the expression of caspase?3 protein and mRNA was significantly up?regulated, the neuronal via?bility was significantly decreased, and the amount of LDH released was significantly increased in group siR?NA ( P<0?05) , and no significant change was found in the parameters mentioned above in group V ( P>0?05) . Conclusion TDAG8 is partially involved in the endogenous neuron?protective mechanism against OGD∕R?induced apoptosis in rat neurons, which may be related to activation of Akt signaling pathway.
