[A Review] Many clinical and basic researches have revealed that brain damage can be deteriorated by diabetes significantly. However, its pathogenesis remains unclear. Recently, apoptosis have become the focus of research on brain damage. This article introduces the related investigations.

Objective To explore the protective effect of rhG-CSF given intranasally on cerebral infarct rats by observing the neurological dysfunction and the expression of Fas ligand (FasL) in hippocampus of cerebral infarct rats.Methods Middle cerebral artery occlusion(MCAO) model rats were established by nylon strand,reperfuse 2 hours later,and give rhG-CSF through subcutaneous and intranasal way.The rats were divided into the nermal group,the sham-operated control group(sham),MCAO group,MCAO+NS given intranasally group(NS),MCAO + rhG-CSF given subcutaneously group,and MCAO + rhG-CSF given intranasally group each group had 6 rats. At the time of 3d after reperfusion,neurological severity scores (NSS) test was performed and the expression of FasL was detected via immunohistochemical staining in collateral hippocampus. Results Neurological dysfunction appeared in all groups except for the normal and the sham group. The dysfunction of the MCAO and the NS group was the most serious,the NSS was the highest(10.20±1.85,10.30±1.76),the number of FasL positive cells was the most(41.17±3.25,41.00±2.76),and there was no obvious difference between the two groups ( P ＞0.05);the NSS and FasL positive cells decreased in the subcutaneous group(5.67±1.32,P ＜0.01;32.67±1.97,P ＜0.01) and decreased further more in the intranasal group(4.00±0.93,P ＜0.05;19.50±1.05,P ＜0.01).Conclusions rhG-CSF given intranasally can relieve the neurological dysfunction of cerebral infarct rats,and brain cells are thereby protected by resisting the expression of FasL.

Pathological pain or clinical pain is caused by tissue and nerve injuries, and is usually chronic and mainly divided into inflammatory pain and neuropathic pain. Pathological pain is typically characterized by hyperalgesia (increased responsiveness to noxious stimuli) and allodynia (painful responses to normally innocuous stimuli). The mitogen-activated proteins kinases (MAPKs) are a family of evolutionally conserved molecules that play a critical role in cell signaling, consisting of extracellular signal regulated kinase (ERK), p38, and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), which play an important role in neural plasticity of pathological pain. Inhibition of MAPKs alleviates inflammatory pain and neuropathic pain in different animal models. It is very important to study the inhibition of MAPKs as a therapeutic approach to treat pathological pain.

OBJECTIVE To find out the prevalent distribution and multidrug resistance trend of meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus(MRS) and to prevent fulminant prevalence of MRS and opt for effective therapeutic means.METHODS The bacterium was(identified) by the way of API Staph and the TH-16S′s coding tube.The(antimicrobial) susceptibility testing was adoped by ATB-STAPH5 and MRS was examined by dilution and K-B.All statistical analyses were performed using SPLM 3.0 software.RESULTS The isolation rate of meticillin-resistant S.aureus(MRSA) and meticillin-resistant coagulase negative Staphylococcus(MRCNS) was 38.09%,20.00%and 87.65%,89.00%,(respectively) in 2 years.Along with the age of patients,the infection from MRS was(increasing).The isolation rate of MRSA was 28-26%,but that of MRCNS was more than 80% from S.epidermidis,S.haemolyticus,S.hominis,and S.saprophyticus subsp saprophyticus.All parts of our body can be(infected) by MRS.The more than 30% MRSA were multidrug resistant and the approximately 11.87-13.75% MRCNS were also multidrug(resistant).(CONCLUSIONS) The isolation rate of MRSA from national surveillance(network) is not(different) with that of MRCNS.

AIM: To investigate the changes of somatosensory evoked potential(SEP), nitric oxide (NO) levels both in serum and in brain tissue after subarachnoid hemorrhage(SAH) and the influence of Ginkgo biloba extract(GBE) on them. METHODS: Wistar rats were divided into sham-operated group, pure SAH group and GBE-treated group. Dynamic changes of regional cerebral blood flow( rCBF),SEP, and NO levels both in serum and in brain tissue were detected within 24 hours after operation. RESULTS: In pure SAH group, rCBF decreased immediately after operation, with no tendency to recover within 24 hours. Latency of SEP delayed progressively from 1 hour to 24 hours after SAH.NO levels in serum and in brain tissue decreased and increased respectively from 1 hour to 24 hours after SAH. GBE effectively antagonized the changes of above parameters. CONCLUSION: SEP is useful in the judgement of cerebral ischemic damage after SAH. Decrease of serum NO and increase of brain NO are important factors leading to cerebral vasospasm and neural damage respectively after SAH. GBE relieves cerebral ischemic damage by reversing the pathological alterations of NO.

Objective To explore the effect of protein kinase C inhibitor on the level of phosphralated extracellular regulated protein kinases in the spinal trigeminal nucleus of migraine model rats.Methods Healthy adult male SD rats were randomly divided into four groups:normal group (group C),sham operation group (group C),migraine model group(group M),and H-7group(H-7group),with 18 rats in each group.Dural blood flow and the extracellular discharge frequency in the spinal trigeminal nucleus was recorded.ERK1/2 phosphorylation was tested.Results (1) Dural blood flow:compared with group C((3.8± 1.0)％),the dural blood flow in M group ((78.0±4.2) ％)increased obviously(P＜0.01) ; compared with M group((78.0±4.2)％),the dural blood flow in H-7 group((-24.8±4.9) ％) decreased obviously(P＜0.01).(2) The percentage of extracellular discharge frequency change:two hours after treatment,the percentage of extracellula discharge frequency change in group M ((325.9 ±47.3)％)was higher than that in group C((107.3±16.4)％).The percentage of discharge frequency change in group H-7((136.0±26.5)％) was lower than that in group M((325.9±47.3)％).There was no significant difference in the percentage of discharge frequency change between group H-7((136.0±26.5) ％) and group C((107.3 ± 16.4)％).(2) ERK1/2 phosphorylation:the ERK1/2 phosphorylation in group M was higher than that in group C.The ERK1/2 phosphorylation in group H-7 was lower than than that in group C and group M.Conclusion ERK1/2 is a downstream PKC signal path and PKC may have indirect activation of ERK1/2.

AIM: To investigate the effect of Ginkgo biloba extrac (GBE) on cerebral ischemia during early stage of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). METHODS: Noncraniotomy models of SAH in Wistar rats were used and animals were divided into sham-operated group, SAH group and SAH+GBE group. Dynamic change of regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) was detected. Brain endothelin-1(ET-1) and calcium contents were also determined at different time point during 24 hours after the operation. Pathological change of neurons of hippocampus CA1 region was observed. RESULTS: In SAH group, rCBF decreased immediately and persistently after induction of SAH. Values of brain ET-1 content and calcium content at 1 hour, 6 hours and 24 hours were significantly higher than those in sham-operated group. Neurons of hippocampus CA1 region were damaged severely 3 days after onset of SAH. Above abnormal changes in SAH+GBE group were much slighter than those in SAH group. CONCLUSION: GBE may relieve cerebral ischemic damage after SAH.

Objective To investigate the pathway of lymphatic drainage of proteins from cerebral parenchyma in subarachnoid hemorrhage rat models. Methods Healthy adult male Wistar rats were divided into Saline group, Evans blue-labeled albumin (EBA) group, and SAH + EBA group. SAH models were produced by double injection of autologous arterial blood into cisterna magna. Using a modified microinjection method, EBA was injected into left candate-putamen of the EBA group and EBA + SAH group rats. In Saline control group, saline was injected. After injection, at 12 hours, 1 day, 2 days, 3 days and 5 days, the animals were sacrificed and the fluorescence signals of EBA were imagined and analyzed along the possible lymphatic drainage pathway, e.g. the brain tissue, the wall of common carotid artery, and cervical lymphatic nodes. Results One day after injection, in EBA group, the fluorescence of EBA initially appeared on the left of the brain, the wall of common carotid artery, left lateral cerebral ventricle, and the perivascular spaces of cerebral vessels. The fluorescence signals gradually expanded to the opposite side.Large amount of fluorescence granules accumulated in the outer layer of common carotid artery. Fluorescence was also found in cervical lymphatic nodes. Two days after injection in this group, the density of fluorescencein the brain became weaker while the density of fluorescence in rhinencephalon became stronger. The fluorescence of EBA was found in lymphatic nodes adjacent to abdominal aorta. In SAH + EBA group,reduced amount and velocity of the drainage of EBA from left caudate-putamen to rhinencephalon, cervical lymphatic nodes, and lymphatic nodes adjacent to abdominal aorta were observed. From 12 hours to 5 days after injection, fluorescence intensity of EBA in deep cervical lymphatic nodes in SAH + EBA group(8.9 ±2. 0, 11.9 ± 2. 5, 17.4 ± 3.7, 26.7 ± 4. 5 and 59.0 ± 8. 1 ) were lower than those in EBA group ( 14. 5 ±3.2, 27.5 ±7.4, 60.3 ±12.3, 138.0±12.0 and 108. 1 ±13.4, F=13. 17, 24.04, 66.81, 302.77 and 59.36, P ＜ 0. 01 ). From 2 to 5 days, fluorescence intensity of EBA in lymphatic nodes adjacent to abdominal aorta was also lower in SAH + EBA group( 11.0 ± 1.5, 12. 5 ±2. 8, 23.6 ±3. 2) than those in EBA group(26. 3 ±5.9, 47.5 ±9.6, 41.0 ±9.3; F =38. 17, 72.52, 19.01, P ＜0.01). Conclusion SAH can result in reduced drainage of macromolecular substances, e.g. protein, from the brain via lymphatic pathway.
