International Journal of Traditional Chinese Medicine 2015;37(9):812-816
Objective To investigate the protection of Rhodioloside on brain tissue in diabetic rats. Methods The rats were randomly divided into six groups: a normal control group, a model control group, a Rhodioloside high, medium and low dose group, and a positive control group(n=16). Except normal control group, the diabetic models were set up by intraperitoneal injecting STZ(60 mg/kg). And then, the Rhodioloside high, medium, low dose group were respectively given Rhodioloside solution(100、50、25 mg/kg) by intragastrical administration(ig), the positive control group was given metformin hydrochloride(25 mg/kg) by ig, the normal control group and positive control group were given normal saline(NS). Before the drug was given and 4, 8, 12 weeks after, the level of blood sugar was determined. And 12 weeks later, the body weight was detected; the activity of CPK, LDH and the level of T-AOC in serum were determined; the activity of SOD, GSH-Px, CAT and the content of MDA in brain tissue were determined; and the histopathological changes of the brain tissue was observed by HE staining.Results Compared with the model control group, the level of blood sugar (16.0 ± 0.9 mmol/Lvs. 18.0 ± 1.2 mmol/L) in Rhodioloside high dose group was significantly decreased (P<0.01), the activity of CPK(240.7 ± 62.3 U/Lvs. 312.5 ± 78.2 U/L) and LDH (265.4 ± 54.6 U/Lvs. 346.3 ± 73.8 U/L) in serum were significantly decreased (P<0.01), the level of T-AOC (10.8 ± 2.8 U/Lvs. 8.7 ± 2.4U/L) was significantly increased (P<0.01); the activity of SOD(11.5 ± 3.2 U/mgvs. 8.1 ± 2.9 U/mg), GSH-Px(13.1 ± 2.8 U/mgvs. 11.4 ± 2.5 U/mg), CAT(3.8 ± 1.1 U/mgvs. 2.6 ± 0.8 U/mg) in brain tissue were significantly increased (P<0.05,P<0.01), and the content of MDA (5.3 ± 1.4 U/mgvs. 6.3 ± 1.8 U/mg) in brain tissue were significantly decreased (P<0.01), which were better than Rhodioloside low dose group; but compared with positive control group, the difference was not significant (P>0.05). The brain histopathological changes of Sal treated groups were significantly improved, while the treatment effect of Rhodioloside high dose group was the most significant.Conclusions Rhodioloside had dose-dependent protective effect on the brain tissue in diabetic rats, whose mechanism perhaps related to its effects on enhancing the activity of antioxidant enzymes, and reducing the damage of oxidative stress.

BACKGROUND: Caspase family is viewed as the executive factor of cell apoptosis. Neuronal apoptosis happens probably after spinal cord injury.OBJECTIVE: To observe the changes in caspase-3 expression after spinal cord injury in rats so as to probe into the relationship between it and neuronal apoptosis and provide the evidence on the prop e r time window of intervention on alleviating secondary spinal cord injury.DESIGN: Self-control and mutual-control were designed in animal experiment.SETTING: Department of Traumatic Surgery and Department of Orthopedics of Tongji Hospital Affiliated to Tongji Medical College of Huazhong University of Science and Technology.MATERIALS: The experiment was performed in Experiment Room of Tongji Hospital affiliated to Tongji Medical College of Huazhong University of Science and Technology from January to December 2001, in which, 54SD rats were employed, of either sex, mass weighted varied from 220 to 250 g and provided from Animal Experimental Center of Tongji Medical College of Huazhong University of Science and Technology.rats were divided into the control and injury group. Laminectomy was only done on Ts and T9 in the control and the injury group was subdivided into 9 subgroups, in which, the materials were collected on the 4th and 8th hours and on the 1st, 2rd, 3rd, 7th 14th and 21st days successively, 6 rats in each one. After abdominal anesthesia with 30 g/L pentobarbitol sodium,sternal cord on T8 andT9 segments were exposed with Nystrom method and 50 g weight compressed the front middle region of the spinal cord of such segments with arch smooth metal pad 2.2 mn×5.0 mm for 5 minutes. After injury, artificial bladder urination was done 3 times at 10:00, 16:00and 22:00 successively everyday till the bladder reflex was established.cord was collected at various time spots after spinal cord injury. 4 pieces of spinal cord tissue masses from each group, about 8mm in length, were embedded with paraffin and sectioned continuously. Afterwards, HE staining, immunohistocheistry and TUNEL (TdT-mediated dUTP-biotin nick end labeling) were performed successively. Two rats were sacrificed on ice in each group and central tissue of injured spinal cord was placed in expression was assayed with immunohistochemistry method, neuronal apoptosis was assayed with TUNEL method and linear correlation was used to analyze the correlativity between caspase-3 expression and neuronal apoptosis.pase-3 expression after spinal cord injury in rats of each group.RESULTS: Six rats were maintained in each group and included in result optic microscope: Extensive hemorrhage appeared in 1 hour in injured segment. In 4 to 8 hours, spinal structure began destructive and a large amount of neuronal death appeared. In 24 hours, the destruction of spinal cord became severe and in 7 to 21days, the range of injury was defined with immunohistochemistry in rats of each group: Very few caspase-3 expressions (2.1±0.5) presented in neurons of spinal cord in normal rat. In 8hoursafter spinal cord injury, caspase-3 expression of positive neurons was increased remarkably (89.2±10.5) and up to the peak (189.6±12.7) in 3 days. Caspase-3 expression of positive cell and apoptotic cell appeared alexpression assayed with transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR)in rats of each group: Caspese-3 mRNA (0.442±0.024) began increased in 4h, was up to the peak (0.634±0.028) in 48 hours and was restored to be normal (0.351±0.013) in 7 days, which appeared early than apoptosis, indicating positive correlation with the level of neuronal apoptosis (r=0.622).In the control and 4 hours group, stained cell was seen occasionally and positive cell appeared 8 hours later, mainly localized in gray matter. Afterwards, positive cell was increased and up to the peak in 3 days. In 7 days,positive cell of apoptosis and staining was decreased gradually in gray matter, mainly around the white matter. Little amount positive cells appeared on the 14th day and 21st day.CONCLUSION: In normal spinal cord tissue, caspase-3 existed in form of zymogen with very low activity. Caspase-3 is enhanced in expression after spinal cord injury in rats, expresses in large amount in 8 hours and is up to the peak in 24 to 48 hours, which is overlapped in time with positive apoptotic cell assayed with TUNEL and concerning to the localization, it is in conformity with positive apoptotic cell of spinal cord injury compared with positive cell of caspase-3. It is indicated that caspase-3 is involved in regulation of cell apoptosis after spinal cord injury. It is seen in this experiment that the time from spinal cord injury to the activation of caspase-3 is the time window of treatment for cell apoptosis intervened by spinal cord and alleviating secondary spinal cord injury. It is suggested that genetic intervention or specific caspase-3 inhibitor should be applied in 48 hours.

Objective To study the diagnostic value of porphobilin staining of gastric mucus for primary pathologic duodenogastric reflux (DGR). Methods A total of 58 DGR patients diagnosed from January, 2007 to April, 2008 were recruited to the study as DGR group, and 21 healthy volunteers as control.All subjects underwent 24-hour intragastric bilirubin monitor and gastroscopy. Bilirubin absorption value of 0. 25 and median reflux time of 23.60% were taken as thresholds to differentiate low reflux group ( reflux time < 23.60% ) and high reflux group (reflux time ≥23.60% ). Porphobilin staining of gastric mucosa was quantitatively analyzed. Results Deposition of porphobilin in mucosa of gastric antrum, gastric angle and gastric body in primary pathologi DGR group was significantly higher than those in healthy group (P <0. 05 ). The occurrence of atrophic and intestinal metaplasia of gastric antrum in high reflux group was significantly higher than that of low reflux group (P < 0. 05). Deposition of porphobilin in mucosa of gastric antrum, gastric angle and gastric body in high reflux group was significantly higher than that of low reflux group (P < 0. 05 ). The New Sydney system pathological scores of gastric antrum and angle of high reflux group was higher than that of low reflux group ( P < 0. 05 ). The deposition of porphobilin in mucosa of gastric antrum and gastric angle was positively correlated with New Sydney system pathological scores in primary pathological DGR group (r=0.59, P=0.041 andr=0.73, P=0.038). Conclusion Porphobilin staining of mucosa in gastric antrum can reflect the severity of bile reflux, and is positively correlated with the extent of gastric mucosal lesion, which may be helpful in diagnosis of primary pathological DGR.
