BACKGROUND: Cyclin-dependent kinase-5 (CDK-5) is one of the members in cyclin-dependent protein kinase family. The attention has being drawn by researchers on the relationship between the expression and distribution of CDK-5 mRNA and its protein in the brain during brain development and neural degeneration in thought-cognition.OBJECTIVE: To probe into the influence of CDK-5 on neurogeny and neural degeneration during cerebral development.DESIGN: Single factor analysis of variance.SETTING: Histological and Embryological Department and Neurobiological Department in Third Military Medical University of Chinese PLA.MATERIALS: The experiment was performed in Histological and Embryological Department and Neurobiological Department in Third Military Medical University of Chinese PLA. Twenty-five Wistar rats of 5 phases were employed, named embryonicphase (E8-E21), neonatal phase (P0-P15),childhood (P16-2 months), grown-up phase (＞ 2 months) and senile phase (＞ 8 months), 5 rats in each group.METHODS: In situ hybridization histochemistry (ISH) and immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining was adopted in brain sections from embryonic phase to senile phase.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURFS: Distribution and expression of positive cells of CDK-5 mRNA and protein in various brain areas.RESULTS: Twenty-five rats entered result analysis for all. ① The expression of CDK-5 mRNA presented in entire development from E14 to P350and was in tendency of stability after growth-up. CDK-5 mRNA localized mainly in neurons and positive regions distributed mainly in cerebral cortex, hippocampus, thalamus, hypothalamus, cerebellum and a part of nerve nuclei. ② The expression of CDK-5 was strong after birth and it was weaker in embryonic and senile rats. Positive regions concentrated mainly in peripheral ventricle, hippocampus, cerebellum and a part of nerve nuclei.The expression only presented in hippocampus and Purkinje cellular layer of cerebellum in senile rats.CONCLUSION: CDK-5 in brain runs through entire phases of neural development, it expresses more significantly in neonatal phase and childhood and declines after growth-up, especially in senile phase. The declined expression of CDK-5 in hippocampus of senile rats is closely associated with decline of learning and memory in senility probably.

Objective To investigate the nerve recanalization and the motor function of hind legs after transplantation of BDNF genetically modified neural stem cells(NSCs) at spinal cord injury site in rat. Methods After L4 spinal cord transection of rat, BDNF genetically modified NSCs were transplanted immediately. Retrograde HRP tracing through sciatic nerve were practiced at 1 week, 1 month, 2 month, 3 month after transplantation of BDNF genetically modified NSCs. The morphological changes were observed at section of spinal cord and the motor functions of both hind legs of rat were detected. Results The morphology of the injured spinal cord sections turned better. Retrograde HRP tracing through sciatic nerve showed some HRP positive neurons and nerve fibers at the site of near rostral end of the nearly injured part at one month after transplantation and increased with the time going by. Motor function of hind legs of rats recovered significantly in all transplantation groups. Conclusion BDNF genetically modified NSCs have repairing effect on spinal cord injury in rat.

Objective To observe the changes of the gene expressions at spinal cord injury site of rat after transplantation of BDNF genetically modified neural stem cells(NSCs) so as to provide basic data for the repair of spinal cord injury. Methods The Wistar rats were randomly divided into 4 groups: control group, operation group, NSCs transplantation group, BDNF NSCs transplantation group. Four time points(7 day, 1 month, 2 month, 3 month) were divided for each group. The expressions of ? galactosidase and BDNF, GFAP, NF 200 at the site of spinal cord injury were observed by cell transplantation, X gal histochemistry, immunocytochemistry, in situ hybridization, etc. Results After transplantation of BDNF genetically modified NSCs, some X gal positive cells were found at the sections of spinal cord injury. The expressions of BDNF were strong, especially at 1 week and 1 month post transplantation in transplantation group. The GFAP and NF 200 positive cells were also found at each time point in each group. Conclusion BDNF genetically modified NSCs can survive at the site of spinal cord injury and can strongly express BDNF, suggesting that BDNF genetically modified NSCs can be used as the material for the repair of spinal cord injury.

Objective To observe the effects of fetal bovine serum(FBS) on differentiation of human neural stem cells (NSCs). Methods The effects of FBS with different concentrations on differentiation of human fetal NSCs were observed by cell culture, immunocytochemistry and flow cytometry. Results Human fetal NSCs could be induced to differentiate mainly three types of nerve system cells(neuron, astrocyte and oligodentrocyte). There were 80%～90% astrocytes of differentiated cells from human fetal NSCs with the concentration of 15% FBS induced. Conclusion Concentration dependent FBS in culture medium may have effect on the ratio of neurons to glial cells differentiated from human NSCs in vitro .

BACKGROUND: NOV protein encoded by nephroblastoma overexpression gene(NOV) is IGF(insulin-like growth factor) -binding protein. What is its impact on human neural stem cell(hNSC) proliferation and differentiation?OBJECTIVE: To investigate the impacts of NOV protein on hNSCs proliferation and differentiation.DESIGN: A single factor analysis of variance experimental study using cells as subjectsSETTING: Department of histology and embryology, and department of neurobiology in a military medical university.MATERIALS: Study was conducted in the Department of Histology and Embryology of the Third Military Medical University of Chinese PLA. Subjects were hNSCs cultured from 10 to 14 weeks human embryo cerebral cortex.INTERVENTIONS: COS-7 cells were transfected by NOV gene recombined plasmid. COS-7 cell and COS-7 cell modified by NOV gene conditioned culture media(COS-CM and NOV-CM) were collected and reacted with the cultured HNSCs.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: hNSCs proliferation was detected by 3H-TdR scintillation analysis, and hNSCs differentiation was detected by immunocytochemistry and flow cytometer(FCM).RESULTS: Both COS-CM and NOV-CM could significant promote the intake of 3H-TdR by HNSCs, of which the 1/minute of NOV-CM group was significantly higher than that of COS-CM group(P ＜ 0.05), which indicated that NOV-CM contained component that could facilitate hNSCs proliferation, and moreover, there was certain dose-effect relationship in NOV-CM' s facilitation of cellular proliferation. The results of immunocytochemistry and FCM revealed that there were more NF-200 positive cells in NOV-CM group, while many glial fibrillary acidic protein positive cells could be seen in COS-CM group.CONCLUSION: NOV protein might have facilitative effects on hNSCs proliferation and differentiation into neurons.

In this study gloxylic acid-induced fluorescent histochemical method was usedto reveal the innervation of adrenergic nerves,acetycholinesterase (AChE) methodto show the cholinergic nerves,and the immunohistochemical method to display thevasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) and neuropeptide Y (NPY) immunoreactivenerves.This observation on the vas deferens showed that the VIP-immunoreactivenerves had the same distribution as the cholinergic nerves,and mainly existed inlamina propria,while NPY-immunoreactive nerves had the same distribution asadrenergic nerves and mainly existed in the muscular layer.One group of animalswas treated by intraperitoneal injections of 6-OHDA on the lst,2nd,6th and 7thday,and killed on the 8th day.Following treatment with 6-OHDA,significantevanescence of most adrenergic nerves was observed.NPY-immunoreactive nervesreduced remarkably and the extent of the decrease was similiar to that of adrenergicnerves,whereas no change was observed on the VIP and cholinergic nerves.Theimmunoelectronic microscopy (PAP pre-embedding method) demonstrated that VIPimmunoreactive complex deposited in the varicosity containing small clear vesicles(diameter of 40-55nm).Some varicosities also contained small number of largegranular vesicles with the diameter of 100-144mm.NPY immunoreactive complexdeposited in the large granular vesicles,and occasionally can be observed in thesmall granular vesicles,40-55nm in diameter.The results from this study suggestthat VIP probably co-exist with ACh and NPY with noradrenalin in rat vasdeferens.

Objective To observe the change of nitric oxide(NO) content and explore its cell source following brain ischemic injury. Methods We established the model of transient global brain ischemia/reperfusion (IR) in rat. The concentration of NO and its cell source were investigated by detection of NO content, NDP histochemical staining, double label technique of immunofluorescence and stereological analysis after brain ischemia. Results (1)The content of NO increased at 12 h and peaked on days 1～3 after IR. The content of NO decreased gradually on the 5th day after IR. (2)The density of NDP positive cells increased and peaked on the 1st day after IR. The positive cells distributed mainly in the temporal cortex, hippocampus and periventricular zone after IR. The positive cells were found to reduce gradually or disappear on the 14th day after IR. (3)Few NDP positive and GFAP immunofluorescence positive cells were found to coexist at the early period of IR(1～3 d). The percentage of coexisting cells was 10%～15%. Conclusion The content of NO increases at the early period after ischemic brain injury. The main cell type to produce NO is neuron.
