Objective:To analyze the effect of mouse nerve growth factor(mNGF)combined with rehabilitation training on the expression of BDNF and Caspase-3 in brain tissue of newborn rats with spastic cerebral palsy(SCP).Method:A total of 150 clean-grade SD rats aged 7days were randomly divided into the control group(group NS,n=40)and the model group(group T,n=110)using a random number table.Group T received directional injection of absolute ethanol(1μl/g)into the left intracranial pyramidal tract at the age of 7 days,while the NS group received an equal volume of saline.24 hours after injection(at 8 days old),the spastic cerebral palsy rat model was determined by modified Li Xiaojie et al.'s criteria combined with Longa scoring method.Ninety successfully modeled SD rats in group T were randomly divided into group A1,A2 and A3,with 30 each.The intervention began on the 1st day of the experiment(8 days old).Group A1 was given intramuscu-lar injection of mNGF(30ng/g),group A2 was given intramuscular injection of an equal dose of mNGF plus rehabilitation training,and group A3 was given intramuscular injection of an equal volume of saline(2.27ml/kg).The group NS was given intramuscular injection of the equal volume of normal saline.Intervention lasted until 21 days of age.At 8,14 and 21 days of age,HE staining was used to observe the dynamic changes in the morphology of cells in the internal capsule area of brain,TUNEL staining to observe the dynamic changes in the apoptosis rate of cells in the internal capsule area of brain,and Western Blot to monitor dy-namic changes in the expression of BDNF and Caspase-3 proteins in the hippocampus.Result:Model preparation showed that a total of 97 spastic cerebral palsy litters were identified in group T at 8 days old,while no rats with cerebral palsy in groupNS.TUNELstaining revealed that the apoptosis rates of the rats in group A1,A2 and A3 were significantly higher than in group NS at each age(P<0.01),and were significantly higher in group A3 than in group A1 and A2 at 14 and 21 days of age(P<0.01),with group A1 significantly higher than group A2(P<0.01).Western Blot showed that the relative expression of BDNF and Caspase-3 protein in group A1,A2 and A3 at 14 days old were higher than that in group NS(P<0.05).The rel-ative expression of BDNF protein in group A1 and A2 was higher than that in group A3(P<0.05),with group A2 was higher than that in group A1(P<0.05).There was no significant difference between group A2 and A1 at 21 days old(P>0.05).The relative expression of Caspase-3 protein in group A1 and A3 was higher than that in group A2(P<0.05).and group A3 was significantly higher than that in A1 group(P<0.05).Conclusion:It is speculated that both mNGF and combined rehabilitation training can inhibit neuronal apoptosis by promoting BDNF protein expression and reducing the activity of Caspase-3.The effect of mNGF combined with rehabilitation training is better than that of mNGF alone.

Objective:To identify the serotype and genotype characteristics of the first cluster infection of Brucella in Nujiang Lisu Autonomous Prefecture of Yunnan Province. Methods:The information of seven suspected cluster brucellosis cases reported in Lanping County, Nujiang Lisu Autonomous Prefecture in April 2023 were collected, blood samples were collected, and the strains were isolated and cultured. Serological methods were employed for brucellosis diagnosis, bacterial species identification was performed using BCSP31-PCR and AMOS-PCR. Multilocus locus variable-number tandem repeat analysis (MLVA) was conducted for strain genotyping, followed by phylogenetic analysis comparing the strains with those from other regions of China.Results:All seven cases were diagnosed with brucellosis, they were all villagers from the same village and had daily contact with sheeps. Four suspected Brucella strains were isolated, identified as Brucella melitensis biotype by BCSP31-PCR and AMOS-PCR. The four isolated strains exhibited identical MLVA-16 genotype, with MLVA-8 genotype 42 and MLVA-11 genotype 180, belonging to the Eastern Mediterranean lineage. Compared with the MLVA-16 of the isolated strains from other regions of China, the four isolated strains formed an independent cluster. Conclusion:The first cluster infection of Brucella in Nujiang Lisu Autonomous Prefecture of Yunnan Province is caused by Brucella melitensis biotype, and the four isolated strains have showed unique MLVA genotype.

Objective To explore the effect of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α(HIF-1α)inhibitor LW6 on ferroptosis in septic cardiomyopathy rats.Methods Rat septic cardiomyopathy model was prepared using cecal ligation and puncture(CLP)method.Thirty-six specific pathogen-free(SPF)6-8 weeks male SD rats were randomly divided into the sham-operated group,CLP group,CLP+solvent group,LW6 group,ferrostatin-1(Fer-1)group,and LW6+Fer-1 group.The degree of myocardial damage in each group was evaluated through hematoxylin-eosin stai-ning and detection of lactate dehydrogenase and creatine kinase content in cardiac tissue.Myocardial mitochondrial damage was observed by transmission electron microscopy.Ferroptosis level was determined by detecting iron ion concentration,reduced glutathione,malondialdehyde,and reactive oxygen species.Protein expression levels of HIF-1α,solute carrier family 7 member 11(SLC7A11),and glutathione peroxidase 4(GPX4)in cardiac tissue were detected by Western blotting.Results Compared with the CLP group and the CLP+solvent group,the LW6 group could ameliorate myocardial damage,alleviate mitochondrial damage,inhibit ferroptosis-related indicators(all P＜0.05),reduce HIF-1α protein expression levels(P＜0.05),and enhance SLC7A11 and GPX4 protein expression levels(both P＜0.05).Conclusion LW6 decreases HIF-1α expression and ferroptosis levels through the SLC7A11/GPX4 pathway,and ameliorates sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy.
