Objective To study the distribution and sequence analysis of gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) gene in cultured gastric parietal cells of rats. Methods The distribution of GnRH molecule and GnRH mRNA were observed out through immunohistochemical ABC methods and in situ hybridization methods in cultured gastric parietal cells of rats. After isolation of the total RNA from the parietal cells, RT PCR was conducted to obtain GnRH cDNA. Then, the products of PCR was purified, digested by the restriction enzyme of Hind Ⅲ and EcoR Ⅰ, and DNA fragments interests were cloned into pUC19 vector. The products of PCR were analyzed by sequenceing with Sanger's method after identified by PCR and digestion of restriction enzyme. Results Gastric parietal cells showed GnRH immunoreactivity, positive material was located in cytoplasm with negative nuclei. GnRH mRNA hybridized signals were also detected in cytoplasm with negative nuclei. The specific amplified band of GnRH mRNA was detected through agarose gel electrophoresis and gene sequence is identical to the GnRH which has been reported in rat hypothalamus.Conclusion Our data suggest that GnRH could be produced by gastric parietal cells of rats and may modulate physiological function of gastric parietal cells of rats.\;[

BACKGROUND: The environmental change of regeneration of peripheral nerve fiber can accelerate the regeneration of nerve fiber and the recovery of nerve function. Physiotherapy can improve the local microcirculation of the injured area, and promote and stimulate the recovery course of trauma. Therefore, whether choosing different physiotherapies and controlling irradiation dose can speed up the regeneration of nerve fiber?OBJECTIVE: To observe the effects of different physiotherapies in promoting the regeneration of injured nerve fiber.DESIGN:Randomized grouping and controlled animal experiment.SETTING: Laboratory of Anthropotomy and Histo-Embryology Department,Peking University Health Science Center.MATERIALS: The experiment was conducted in the Laboratory of Anthropotomy and Histo-Embryology Department, Peking University Health Science Center, from September 2001 to September 2002. Fifteen adult male SD rats, weighting 185-220 g, were selected.INTERVENTIONS: The model of sciatic nerve injury was established and randomly assigned to 3 groups. Bio-spectrum group and infrared group with 5rats in each received the corresponding physical irradiation. Injury control group was given no irradiation. The slices of sciatic nerve at the operation side of the animals in the three groups were collected on day 14 after operation. The degeneration rate of the injured nerve fiber was observed under the optical microscope to make indirect assessment of the protective effect of physiotherapy after the nerve was injured.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The degeneration rate of nerve fibers at the breakpoint and at 4 points near the spinal cord ( 1,2,3,4 mm) and away from the spinal cord( 1,2,3,4 mm).difference in the degeneration rate of nerve fibers at the breakpoint away from the spinal cord in bio-spectrum group and infrared group as compared with the degeneration rate of nerve fibers in bio-spectrum group(68% ) and infrared group(89% ) was obviously reduced and that in control group was the the spinal cord in the 3 groups showed decreasing trend: the closer to the spinal cord, the fewer the degenerative nerve fibers. The number of degenerative nerve fibers was the smallest in bio-spectrum group, second smallest in infrared group, and the largest in control group.CONCLUSION: The assisting physiotherapy can decrease the number of regenerative nerve fibers, thus promoting and accelerating their recovery. Irradiation with bio-spectrum equipment is more effective.
