Chinese Journal of Rehabilitation Theory and Practice 2012;18(3):229-232
Objective To explore the effect of early intervention on myelin-associated glycoprotein (MAG) expression of white matterin neonatal rats with cerebral brain injury caused by intrauterine infection. Methods 17 days or 18 days pregnant Wistar rats were consecutivelyinjected with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) intraperitoneally. 100 neonatal rats born from LPS group were randomly divided into interventiongroup and non-intervention group with 50 in each group. Another 10 pregnant rats were injected with normal saline, 50 neonatal rats born from the the normal saline group were taken as control group. The intervention group received early intervention and rehabilitationtraining. All the groups underwent hanging test and modified BBB test on the 14th, 21st and 28th day. 6 rats in each group were tested by immunohistochemicalstaining to observe the MAG expression in white matter on the 1st, 7th, 14th, 21st, 28th day. Results The scores of hangingtest and modified BBB test were significantly higher in the control group than in the LPS group (P<0.01), and higher in the interventiongroup than in the non-intervention group (P<0.01). The expression of MAG was higher in LPS group than in the control group (P<0.01), innon-intervention group than in the intervention group (P<0.01). Conclusion Early intervention and rehabilitation training can improve themotor function in rats with brain injury and reduce the expression of MAG.
