Chinese Journal of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation 2015;37(11):806-809
Objective To observe the effects of treadmill training on the expression of axonal guidance factor Netrin-4 and its receptor deleted in colorectal cancer (DCC) protein in the brains of rats with cerebral ischemia.Also to explore how training promotes the recovery of neurological function after cerebral ischemia.Methods Sixty-three adult, male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into a sham group (n =9) , a model group (n =27) and an exercise group (n =27).A modified version of Longa's method was used to establish an animal model of cerebral ischemia by occluding the right middle cerebral artery (MCAO) in the rats of the model and exercise groups while the rats of the sham group were subjected to the same surgical procedure except that no thread was inserted.The rats of the exercise group were given treadmill training beginning 24 h after the modeling, while those of the other two groups were left on the treadmill without training.The rats' neurological functioning was tested by assigning modified neurological severity scores (mNSS) on the 3rd, 7th and 14th day after modeling.Then the ischemic brain tissue was dissected to detect the expression of Netrin-4 and DCC protein using western blotting and immunofluorescent staining and analysis.Results On the 3rd, 7th and 14th day after modeling, the model and exercise groups had significant differences in their average mNSS scores when compared to the sham group.The average mNSS scores of the exercise group on the 7th and the 14th day were significantly lower than those of the model group at the same time point.The average expression level of Netrin-4 and DCC protein in the exercise group was significantly higher in than the model group on the 7th and 14 th days.Immunofluorescent staining showed that Netrin-4 was mainly observed in the blood vessels and astrocytes in the ischemic brain area.DCC protein was found mainly in neural processes and astrocytes in the same area.Conclusions Treadmill training can improve the recovery of neurological function after cerebral ischemia.Its mechanisms may be partly attributed to up-regulating the expression of Netrin-4 and DCC protein in the ischemic brain area, which strengthens the regeneration and reconstruction of nerves and blood vessels.

Based on the analysis of the influence of the valve pivot distance on the performance of mechanical heart valve (MHV), such as the valve opening and closing features, flow field characteristics and the valve assembly properties, value constraints of the valve pivot distance were established, and the reasonable valve was obtained by means of the finite element method. It can be shown that the central flow characteristics of the valve could be enhanced with the increasing of the ratio of pivot distance to valve inner diameter, but the plastic deformation of the ring could be liable to occur in the MHV assembly process. It is proved that the valve of specifications can be designed in similar ratio of pivot distance to valve inner diameter according to the result of the valve performance experiment.

Objective To investigate the effect of mild hypothermia on cerebral oxygen metabolism in a rat model of chronic cerebral hypoperfusion and reperfusion. Methods Twelve healthy SD rats weighing 170-210 g were randomly divided into normal body temperature group (group NT, n = 6) and mild hypothermia group (group MH, n = 6). Arterio-venous fistula was established by end-to-end anastomosis between the right common carotid artery and right external jugular vein according to Yassari. Mild hypothermia was induced in group MH before reperfusion and maintained for 3 h. The rectal temperature was reduced to 32 ℃ while in group NT rectal temperature was maintained at about 37 ℃ . Cerebral blood perfusion (CBP) was assessed by using a lasser Doppler perfusion image system before reperfusion (T_1), immediately after reperfusion (T_2) and 24 h after reperfusion (T_3). Venous and arterial blood samples were collected from superior sagittal sinus and femoral artery respectively for blood gas analysis at T_(1-3) . Cerebral arterial venous O_2 saturation difference (Sa-vO_2), cerebral O_2 extraction rate (CERO_2) and cerebral arterial-venous lactic acid concentration difference ( Da-vL) were calculated. Results In NT group left CBP was significantly decreased at T_2 as compared with the baseline value at T_1 , while at T_3 bilateral CBP was decreased. In MH group bilateral CBP was significantly decreased at T_2 but returned to baseline level at T_3. CERO_2 was significantly decreased at T_2 as compared with the baseline value at T_1 in MH group. Da-vL was significantly increased at T_3 in NT group. Compared with group NT, bilateral CBP was significantly decreased, CERO_ and Da-vL were significantly decreased at T_2 ,while no significant change was found in Sa-vO_2 in group MH. Conclusion Mild hypothermia is beneficial for the balance of cerebral oxygen metabolism in the rats with chronic cerebral hypoperfusion and reperfusion.
