Aim To identify the GABA transporter subtypes and to find its new associated member at the blood brain barrier.Methods Labeled by in vitro infusion of magnetic beads through carotid arteries,the brain microvessels without intact neural cells were sorted in magnetic fields,and identified by RT PCR.The homologous primer of GAT superfamily and the tRNA from isolated brain microvessels were used in the RT PCR to amplify target DNA.The PCR products were isolated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis(PAGE) and cloned, sequenced rospectively.The sequences were screened in dbEST of Genbank by Blast.Results Seven DNA bands were isolated from RT PCR products of isolated brain microvessels by PAGE. B3,B5 complete sequences were highly homologous with rat partial GAT 2 and BGT 1 respectively,B7 complete sequence was highly homologous with rat partial TAUT. The other 4 EST of B1(Accession No:CF358965), B2(CD568346), B4(CF358966) and B6(CD568347) were submitted to dbEST,they were homologous with some sequences in Genbank,but were not homologous with GAT members.Conclusion GAT 2 and BGT 1 of GAT and TAUT were localized at the blood brain barrier which might be responsible for the GABA transport across the blood brain barrier.The genes and their functions of 4 EST associated with GAT need to be clarified.

Objective To study the changes of apoptosis in brain after traumatic injury(TBI)treated with exogenous vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)gene therapy in oder to find out the role of exogenous VEGF gene in protectiog brain tissue.Method The injurea cerebral cortex from the rat models of brain with traumatic injury was injected with adenovirus(adenovirus,Ad)as the carrier of VEGF-165 gene(Ad-VEGF-165 Gene).RT-PCR and Western blot were used to detect the expression of VEGF mRNA and VEGF protein in the brain 6 h,24 h,3 d,7 d and 14 d after injury,and apoptosis in the injured location of brain was also detected by TUNEL successively after Ad-VECF-165 gene therapy.Results With exogenous Ad-VEGF-165 applied to the locally injured brain tissue after injury,VEGF mRNA and VEGF protein showed consistent expression and their expressions were significantly higher than those in trauma group and vehicle control group.Compared with the trauma group.the apoptosis in the gene therapy group 24 h,3 d and 7 d after injury presented a.significant reduction,and had close relationship with VEGF.(Control group:4.17±0.73;TBI group,24 h:47.18±6.01,3 d:79.44±11.23;TBI+VEGF group.24 h:28.72±5.31,3 d:54.18±7.66;P＜0.05).Conclusions The exogenous VEGF gene therapy administered to have protective effects on the local brain tissue in rats with traumatic injury in a certain time.

Delayed cerebral vasospasm is the leading cause of death in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage. A good in vivo animal model of cerebral vasospasm after subarachnoid hemorrhage helps to understand the occurrence, development of this cerebral vasospasm, and the complicated and various pathophysiological mechanisms. It will provide important information for clinical interventions

Objective To observe the therapeutic effect of intermittent pneumatic compression pump to prevent deep venous thrombosis for patients after hip surgery. Methods A total of 104 bedridden patients 72 hours after hip surgery were divided into the treatment group and the control group. Patients in the control group were administrated routine antithrombotic drugs and active functional exercise. While patients in the treatment group were provided with intermittent pneumatic compression pump as assistant based on the routine treatment and active functional exercise. The condition of deep venous thrombosis in the two groups were observed. Results Intermittent pneumatic compression pump had remarkable therapeutic effect on preventing deep venous thrombosis of lower extremity for patients lying in bed over 72 hours after hip surgery. Conclusions Intermittent pneumatic compression pump as an assistant treat -ment based on the routine antithrombotic therapy contributes to prevent deep venous thrombosis of lower extremity for patients lying in bed over 72 hours after hip surgery.

Objective To investigate the changes of region cerebral homodynamic and cerebral vascular autoregulation in traumatic brain injury(TBI) by dynamic CT perfusion(CTP) imaging in rat.Methods Forty-five SD rats underwent CTP,including 10 control rats and 35 TBI rats,on 1,6,24 h,and day 3,7,14,21 after TBI.The region of interest(ROI) was located near traumatic area within 2 mm and mirror area of relative brain hemisphere.False color pictures and dynamic rCBF,rCBV,MTT and PS were obtained in different time.Pathological examination was also done.Results The rCBF,rCBV on 1 h after TBI was lower than that of control group,and significantly higher on 6-24 h after TBI.They reached the peak on day 3.PS had a similar change compared with rCBF,rCBV,but a longer duration.MTT showed to moderate changes except an isolated tide on 3 days after TBI.The rCBF on mirror area of relative brain hemisphere was almost stable except 3 days after TBI,which was lower than that of control group.Meanwhile,the rCBV on mirror area of relative brain hemisphere was normal.Conclusion CTP is an advanced technique to investigate the changes of region cerebral homodynamic and cerebral vascular autoregulation in TBI.The early hypoperfusion and next hyperperfusion around traumatic areas after TBI suggest that the dysfunction of cerebral vascular autoregulation should be committed to the change of homodynamic in TBI.

Objective To investigate the distribution and significance of CD20 positive cells in the early human embryo. Methods Distribution and morphology of CD20 positive cells in 10 specimens of human embryo aged from 6 to 7 weeks were brown,and studied with immunohistochemical method. Results 1.CD20 positive cells appeared in the liver of early human embryo.2.The immunohistochemical positive substances were brown,and found chiefly in the nuclei of B cells as unevenly-distributed granules,and were not detected in the cytoplasma and on the cell membrane.Conclusion The accuracy of location and distribution of CD20 positive cells in the nuclei of B cells of early human embryo liver may provide an important clue for further exploration of the functional mechanism of CD20 in the process of B cell proliferation and differentiation.

Objective To study the follow-up value of MRI in the sequela hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy(HIE).Methods MRI features of HIE in 81 neonates were analyzed retrospectively,every child had two cranial MRI scans,the first scan at the end of the newborn stage,the second scan at 4 months to 4 years.There were 66 full-term neonates and 15 preterm neonates.Results Of 81 cases,79 cases were abnormal on second MRI examination,including myelinogenetic abnormal in 59 cases(72.8%),external hydrocephalus(EH) in 53 cases(65.4%),brain malacia in 26 cases(32.1%),cerebaral atrophy in 25 cases(30.1%),white matter decrease in 24 cases(29.6%) and dysplasia of corpus callosum in 9 cases(11.1%).EH(26/35cases) and myelinogenetic abnormal(16/35 cases) in mild HIE group,brain malacia(12/29 cases) in moderate HIE group,cerebaral atrophy(16/17 cases) and white matter decrease(15 /17 cases)in severe HIE group were often seen.Conclusion MRI findings can reflect the pathological changes of sequela of HIE,and provide objective basis for diagnosis and assessment of prognosis.
