Objective To study the effects of rehabilitation training on learning and memory ability and the expression of growth-associated protein-43(GAP-43)in rats with vascular dementia.Methods Forty-four female Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned to a rehabilitation group(n=20),an immobilization group(n=20),and a sham-operation group(n=4).The rats in the former 2 groups were operated on to establish the experimental vascular dementia model by repeatedly ischemia/reperfusion injury of brain induced by ligation of bilateral common carotid arteries and lowering of blood pressure induced by intraabdominal injection of sodium nitroprusside.The rats in rehabilitation group were administered with rotating bar and rolling cage exercises for 1 hour once daily,while those in the immobilization group were immobilized and without any exercise:the rats in sham-operation group could move freely in cage.Learning and memory tests were preformed by using step-down avoidance test at the 27th and 28th days after operation.Immunohistochemical staining was used to detect GAP-43 expression in hippocampus CA1 area at different time points after operation. Results The rats in rehabilitation group demonstrated better learning and memory ability than those in immobilization group(P<0.01),and more GAP-43 expression in hippocampus CA1 ar-ea than those in immobilization group and sham-operation(P<0.01).Conclusion Rehabilitation training can im-prove the learning and memory ability of rats with experimental vascular dementia,and the mechanism is probably re-lated to the increase of GAP-43 in hippocampus CA1 area.

BACKGROUND:Previous studies have shown that kainic acid injected into hippocampus can significantly upregulate the expression of excitatory KA1 subunit of the kainate receptor in the hippocampus, and endoplasmic reticulum stress markers, phosphorylation of the alpha subunit of eukaryotic initiation factor 2, accompanied by celldeath. OBJECTIVE:To explore the mechanism of endoplasmic reticulum stress after kainic acid is injected into the hippocampus.METHODS:0.15 nmol kainic acid was injected into the hippocampal CA1 region of 32 adult male Kunming mice, the injection time was 60 seconds. At different time points (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8 and 12 hours) after kainic acid was injected, the Bederson score analysis was performed, and then the brain was harvested after cerebral perfusion. FJB staining of brain sections and immunofluorescence double labeled observation were also performed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) At 3, 4, 5, 6, 8 hours after kainic acid injection, Bederson score showed severe injury of central nervous system function, and FJB staining showed the increased of celldeath in the hippocampus (P<0.05);At 1, 2, 12 hours after injection, Bederson score showed no obvious injury of central nervous system function, and FJB staining showed unobvious celldeath in the hippocampus (P>0.05). (2) According to the results of FJB staining, the brain sections were selected at 3, 8 hours for immunohistochemistry. The expressionlevels of KA1 receptors and endoplasmic reticulum stress marker P-eIF2αwere up-regulated at the same time after kainic acid was injected into hippocampus. Two single-staining KA1 and P-eIF2αimmunofluorescence images were synthesized into one over-lapped double-stained image, and two images overlapped, indicating that the up-regulated expression of KA1 and endoplasmic reticulum stress occurred in the same nerve cells. Kainic acid first up-regulated the excitatory receptor KA1 expression, which may cause cellendoplasmic reticulum dysfunction and result in the endoplasmic reticulum stress response, further promoting neuronal celldeath.

Objective To explore the relationship between serum uric acid and fasting blood glucose ( FBG) in newly-diagnosed type 2 diabetes in regard to different genders. Methods In 282 patients of newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes(208 males and 74 females), detection of serum FBG, uric acid, creatinine, transaminases, blood lipids, etc were determined. FBG<7. 0 mmol/L was found in 118 cases (89 males and 29 females);7. 0 mmol/L≤FBG≤9. 0 mmol/L in 114 cases ( 88 males and 26 females ); FBG>9. 0 mmol/L in 50 cases ( 31 males and 19 females). Results (1)Serum uric acid showed statistically significant difference in regard to sex[Male:(325. 82±92. 26)μmol/L, Female:(292. 26±76. 19)μmol/L, P<0. 01]. (2) FBG and serum uric acid were negatively related(r=-0. 316, P<0. 01). (3) FBG and serum uric acid were negatively related both in male(r=-0. 320, P<0.01)andinfemale(r=-0.291,P<0.05). (4)Multiplestepwiseregressionanalysisshowedthatthethreegroups of FBG and serum uric acid showed regression relationship in male and female patients(P<0. 01). Conclusion With the increased FBG, serum uric acid was decreased in both males and females. Therefore, serum uric acid might serve as a potential biomarker of glucose metabolism.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the manifestation,fungal spectrum,diagnosis,antifungal therapy and(outcome) of deep fungal infection(DFI) in patients with hematopoietic malignancies.METHODS Fifty-two(patients) of SFI admitted in Shandong Provincial Hospital during Oct 1998 to Sept 2004 were enrolled in this(investigation,) including 34 males and 18 females with mean age of 54 years old.Clinical data,such as manifestation,fungal(spectrum,) treatment and outcome,were observed prospectively and retrospectively.RESULTS Lower respiratory tract,gastrointestinal tract,urinary tract and blood were the main DFI infection sites by order of prevalence.The clinical manifestation was various among cases.Pathogen detection determined the subtypes of fungi were Candida albicans(57.14%),C.tropicalis(21.43%),yeast(47.14%),C.parapsilosis(7.14%),and Aspergillus((5.36%).) Nystatin,fluconazole,flucytosine,and(amphotericin) B were used alone or in(combination) to treat DFI.The rates of curing,improvement and death were 44.23%,23.08% and 32.69%,(respectively).(Among) 52 cases,25(48.08%) were occurred during Oct 2002 to Sept 2004,compared with 27((51.92%)) during Oct 1998 to Sept 2002,suggested the elevated incidence of DFI.CONCLUSIONS The incidence of DFI in patients with hematopoietic malignancies is increasing these years.The clinical manifestation of DFI may be nonspecific.It is critical to pay more attention to the fungal infection among the high-risk patients,therefore fungus detection from various(samples) should be recommended for the sake of early diagnosis of DFI. Though(C.albicans) remains the top in pathogen spectrum analysis,infection of other fungi tends to increase.The mortality of DFI is still very high thus more investigations about early diagnosis and treatment of DFI should be conducted.
