Objective To investigate the effects of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) pretreatment on neuron apoptosis and the expression of Bcl-2 and Bax protein following global cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury in gerbils. Method Forty-eight mongolian gerbils were randomly divided into six groups in equal number (n = 8): normal control group (group C), ischemia-reperfusion group (group I/R) and four BDNF pretreatment groups according to various lengths of time from BDNF pretreatment to ischemia-reperfusion. The BDNF pretreat-ment was carried out in gerbils with lateral ventricular injection of BDNF 0.5μg 6 h, 12 h,24 h and 48 hours be-fore cerebral ischemia, and those gerbils assigned into PR6, PR12, PR24 and PR48 groups. The global cerebral is-chemia-reperfusion was induced by occlusion of bilateral common carotid arteries for 20 minutes and then the arter-ies were released for 24 hours reperfusion. The confirmation of global cerebra ischemia was evidenced by the ap-pearance of mydriasis and disappearance of light reflex and righting reflex. Twenty-four hours later, all gerbils including those of control group were sacrificed and a piece of tissue was taken from frontal cortex just behind the optic chiasma 1～4 millimeter for making paraffin sections. Neuron apoptosis was identified by using TUNEL and immunohischemistry was used to detect the expression of Bcl-2 and Bax protein in cerebral cortex. The data were analyzed by using analysis of variance. Results There were no apoptotic cells, and expression of Bcl-2 and Bax protein positive cells found in group C. Neuron apoptosis in brain cortex was detected in I/R group and BDNF pre-treatment groups. The indexes of neuron apoptosis in BDNF pretreatment groups were markedly lower than those in group I/R (P < 0.01). Compared with group I/R, the index of expression of Bcl-2 protein positive cells was in-creased significantly in BDNF pretreatment groups (P = 0.005), while the index of expression of Bax protein posi-tive cells were decreased significantly (P < 0.01 in all groups). Among 4 BDNF pretreatment group, the lowest apoptosis index and lowest of expression of Bax protein positive cells were found in PR6 and PR12 BDNF pretreat-ment groups (P = 0.0056 and 0.001, respectively). Conclusions Different time windows of BDNF pretreatment can decrease the neuron apoptosis in different degree, and protect brain against cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury significantly. Among BDNF pretreatment time windows, pretreatment of 6 hours and 12 hours are the better ones.The mechanism of protection of BDNF pretreatment may be attributed to inducing Bcl-2 protein expressions and in-hibiting Bax protein expressions, and thereby inhibiting neuron apoptosis.

Objective To determine the functional motif of the recombinant Ricin B(rRicin B) in Vibrio vulnificus cytolysin (VVC) and understand its molecule pathogenic mechanism.Methods The motif of VVC was predicted through bioinformatics analysis and cloned into a procaryotic expression vector pET28a-rRicin B.The recombinant plasmid was transformed into E.coli BL21 (DE3) and induced by IPTG to express rRicin B.The expressed protein was further analyzed by SDS-PAGE and purified by Ni2+-NTA agarose.Renaturation of the rRicin B were also carried out for further analysis.ELISA assay and confocal microscope was applied to identify the activity of the rRicin B on human Hela cells.Results Ricin B motif located in the 336-465 amino acids of Vibrio vulnificus cytolysin with a relative molecular weight of 20×103.The result of ELISA showed that the antigenicity of rRicin B was 28.71 U/L after renaturation.FITC labeled rRicin B could bind to the cell membrane and enter the cytoplasm of human Hela cells.Conclusion The Ricin B motif in Vibrio vulnificus cytolysin bearing the similar ability with the natural Ricin B can bind to the cell membrane and enter the cytoplasm.This feature may play an important role in the activity of pore-forming and the cytotoxicity of Vibrio vulnificus cytolysin.

Objective To establish a practical and effective predictive model for predicting carotid plaque/thickened intima,and to provide a novel perspective for stroke screening.Methods A retrospective analysis of the community screening data collected from September 2012 to March 2013 was performed.The data of blood pressure,serum lipid profile and fasting blood glucose and ultrasonographic checks of carotid artery were documented.One thousand subjects were randomly sampled from totally 14 226 individuals and divided into 2 groups according to the presence of carotid plaque/thickened intima.Analysis of relevant data of subjects with Logistic regression were performed.Predictive model was established according to the odds ratio for each risk factor and evaluated by C statistics.Results In the randomly sampled 1000 subjects,164 ones were found to be with carotid plaque/thickened intima.The mean age was (60.23 ± 10.09) years old,110 (67.1％) were male.Smoker,hypertension,angina pectoris,diabetes and hyperlipidemia were seen more often in the subjects with carotid plaque/thickened intima.Logistic regression analysis showed the independent risk factors for carotid plaque/thickened intima included advanced age (OR =1.15,95％ CI:1.12-1.84,P＜0.01),male (OR=3.97,95％CI:2.49-6.33,P＜0.01),smoking (OR=1.80,95％CI:1.24-2.56,P =0.002),diabetes (OR =1.80,95％ CI:1.15-2.98,P =0.012),hypertension (OR =2.82,95％ CI:1.15-2.98,P ＜ 0.01),high total cholesterol level (OR =1.63,95％ CI:1.31-2.02,P ＜ 0.01) and high LDL-C (low density lipoprotein-cholesterol) level (OR =1.70,95 ％ CI:1.35-2.14,P ＜ 0.01).The advanced age was found to be the strongest predictive factor in this model.The C statistics of this model is 0.804,which overweighs other models previously reported.The optimal cutoff point for prediction was 3.5,with a sensitivity of 0.713 and a specificity of 0.757.Conclusion An practical and effective model for predicting carotid plaque/thickened intima established from sampling data of community residents is favorable for both stroke screening and primary stroke prevention.
