OBJECTIVE: To semi-quantitatively determine the pathological changes of apoptotic facial neurons and the expression of PSD-95 in the facial nucleus following facial nerve injury of varying extents using immunohistochemical staining methods. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: Randomized, controlled animal experiments were performed in the Ultrasonic Institute of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing University of Medical Sciences from September to December 2007. MATERIALS: Sixty-five healthy, adult, Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats, both male and female, were used for this study. Rabbit anti-rat PSD-95 polyclonal antibody was purchased from Beijing Biosynthesis Biotechnology Co., Ltd. METHODS: SD rats were randomly assigned into a control group with five rats and three injured groups with 20 rats per group. Exposure, clamp and cut for bilateral facial nerve trunks were performed in the rats of the injury groups, and no injury was inflicted on the rats of the control group. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES; The brainstems of all the rats were excised on days 1, 3, 7, and 14 post injury, and then the facial nuclei were stained with hematoxylin-eosin to observe any pathological changes due to apoptosis in facial neurons. PSD-95 expression in facial nuclei was detected by immunohistochemistry and the number of PSD-95 positive cells was counted under a light microscope. RESULTS: The expression of PSD-95 in the facial nucleus and morphology of the facial neuron within the exposure group had no obvious changes at various points in time tested (P 〉 0.05). However, the expressions of PSD-95 in the facial nucleus of the clamp group and cut group increased on day 1 post injury (P 〈 0.05), and showed further increase on day 7 post injury (P 〈 0.01 ). This did not decrease until day 14 post injury. Facial neuron apoptosis was detected on day 3 post injury and this was even more obvious on day 7 and was maintained to day 14 post injury. The number of cells expressing PSD-95 and displaying severe degrees of facial neuron apoptosis were as follows: cut group 〉 clamp group 〉 exposure group. CONCLUSION: The apoptotic extent of facial neurons and the expression of PSD-95 in apoptotic facial neurons increased with the degree of aggravation of injured severity of facial nerve.展开更多

In this study, the functional roles of PSD-95 in tyrosine phosphorylafion of NMDAR subunit 2A (NR2A) and in apoptosis-like cell death induced by oxygen-glucose de- privation (OGD) in cultured rat cortical neurons were investigated. Methods We used immunoprecipitation and immuno- blotting to detect PSD-95 protein level, tyrosine phosphorylation level of NR2A, and the interaction between PSD-95 and NR2A or Src. Apoptosis-like cells were observed by 4,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole staining. Results Tyrosine phospho- rylation of NR2A and apoptosis-like cell death were increased after recovery following 60-min OGD. The increases were attenuated by pretreatment with antisense oligonucleotides against PSD-95 before OGD, but not by missense oligonucle- otides or vehicle. PSD-95 antisense oligonucleotides also inhibited the increased interaction between PSD-95 and NR2A or Src, while NR2A expression did not change under this condition. Conclusion PSD-95 may be involved in regulating NR2A tyrosine phosphorylation by Src kinase. Inhibition of PSD-95 expression can be neuroprotective against apoptosis- like cell death after recovery from OGD.展开更多

Chinese medicinal substances may play an important role in the expression of Syp and PSD-95. OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of Panaxtriol Saponins (PTS), an active component in Sanqi tongshu capsules, on the expression of Syp and PSD-95 after cerebral infarction at different time points in rats, so as to examine the cerebral function remodeling mechanism. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: A randomized and controlled observation which was performed in Dongzhimen Hospital, Beijing University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from January to March, 2007. MATERIALS: Twenty-six healthy male Sprague Dawley rats were used to establish middle cerebral artery occlusion based on the Longa method. Sanqi tongshu capsules (containing 100 mg PTS per tablet) were provided by the Chengdu Huashen Group and nimodipine tablets (30 mg) by Tianjin Zhongyang Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. METHODS: Twenty-six rats were randomly divided into an operation group (n = 21 ) and a control group (n = 5). The operation group underwent the EZ Longa procedure to make the middle cerebral artery occlusion model. After surgery rats were randomly divided into a model group, a PTS group and a nimodipine group, with seven rats in each group. Rats were intragastrically administrated with saline (2 mL/d) in the model group, with Sanqi tongshu capsule (5.4 mg/100 g/d) in the PTS group, and with nimodipine (1.73 mg/100 g/d) in the nimodipine group. Rats in the control group did not undergo model establishment and drug administration. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The expressions of Syp and PSD-95 were measured by immunohistochemical and image analysis at days 3, 7 and 28 after the operation. RESULTS: The expression of Syp and PSD-95 in the operation group was significantly lower than in the control group at days 3, 7, 28 postoperatively (P 〈 0.05). The expression of Syp and PSD-95 in the PTS group and nimodipine group was significantly higher than in the model group at day 28 postoperatively (P 〈 0.05-0.01). Additionally, after PTS and nimodipine treatment at different intervals, the expression of Syp and PSD-95 at day 28 postoperatively was significantly higher than those at days 3 and 7 postoperatively, respectively (P 〈 0.01). CONCLUSION: PTS can promote the expression of Syp and PSD-95, i.e. the remodeling process of synapses, after cerebral infarction at different time points in rats, which contributes to cerebral function remodeling.展开更多
