Myelin gene expression after experimental contusive spinal cord injury.
After incomplete traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI), the spared tissue exhibits abnormal myelination that is associated with reduced or blocked axonal conductance. To examine the molecular basis of the abnormal myelination, we used a standardized rat model of incomplete SCI and compared normal uninjured tissue with that after contusion injury. We evaluated expression of mRNA for myelin proteins...
متن کاملThe Effect of Carvacrol on the Expression of Genes Hmox-1, iNOS, Nrf2 and NF-ҚB in the Spinal Cord of Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis Mice
Background: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is one of the most common diseases of the nervous system, characterized by inflammation of the central nervous system and oxidative stress. Carvacrol is a monoterpenoid phenol with antioxidant effects against free radical. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of carvacrol on the expression of Hmox-1, iNOS, Nrf2 and NF-ҚB genes in the spinal cord...
متن کاملLipid Peroxidation and Its Role in the Expression of NLRP1a and NLRP3 Genes in Testicular Tissue of Male Rats: a Model of Spinal Cord Injury
Background: The majority of male patients with spinal cord injury (SCI) suffer from infertility. Nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptors NOD-like receptors (NLRs) are a kind of receptors that corporate in the inflammasome complex. Recent studies have introduced the inflammasome as the responsible agent for secreting cytokines in semen. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) is one of th...
متن کاملTemporal and spatial pattern of RhoA expression in injured spinal cord of adult mice.
OBJECTIVE To quantitatively analyze the temporal and spatial pattern of RhoA expression in injured spinal cord of adult mice. METHODS A spinal cord transection model was established in adult mice. At 1, 3, 7, 14, 28, 56 and 112 days after the surgery, the spinal cords were dissected and cryosectioned for RhoA/NF200, RhoA/GFAP, RhoA/CNPase or RhoA/IBA1 double fluorescent immunohistochemistry t...
متن کاملElectrostimulation of erection and ejaculation and collection of semen in spinal cord injured humans.
An electrostimulation system developed for early research with humans and the great apes, and a new constant-current stimulator specifically developed for human use, have been employed in studies with paraplegic men to produce erection and semen release by rectal probe electrostimulation (RPE). Catheter techniques for antegrade collection of the semen, uncontaminated by urine, have also been ap...
