Changes in Urinary Bladder Structure and Systemic Inflammation Response Following Incomplete Transection versus Contusion Spinal Cord Injury in Rat Model
Objective- The current study was conducted to evaluate changes in the urinary bladder structure and leukocyte profile as an important index of the systemic inflammation response for two different types of spinal cord injury (SCI) in a rat model. Design- Experimental Study.Animals- Forty adult healthy female Sprague-Dawley rats.<br /...
متن کاملThermostabilized chondroitinase ABC Promotes Neuroprotection after Contusion Spinal Cord Injury
Background: Chondroitinase ABC (cABC), due to its loosening impact on the extracellular matrix scaffold, has been used to enhance regeneration of injured axonal tracts after spinal cord injury (SCI). However, cABC thermal instability at physiological temperature has limited its clinical application. The disaccharide trehalose has been shown to increase the stability of cABC in body temperature....
متن کاملCytoskeletal disruption following contusion injury to the rat spinal cord.
Following experimental spinal cord injury (SCI), there is a delayed loss of neurofilament proteins but relatively little is known regarding the status of other cytoskeletal elements. The purpose of the present study was to compare the extent and time course of the MAP2 loss with that of neurofilament proteins, and to examine tau protein levels and distribution following SCI. Within 1 to 6 hours...
متن کاملDifferential Gene Expression in the EphA4 Knockout Spinal Cord and Analysis of the Inflammatory Response Following Spinal Cord Injury
Mice lacking the axon guidance molecule EphA4 have been shown to exhibit extensive axonal regeneration and functional recovery following spinal cord injury. To assess mechanisms by which EphA4 may modify the response to neural injury a microarray was performed on spinal cord tissue from mice with spinal cord injury and sham injured controls. RNA was purified from spinal cords of adult EphA4 kno...
متن کاملeffect of estrogen therapy on tnf-α and inos gene expression in spinal cord injury model
spinal cord injury (sci) is a crucial complication that results in neurons degeneration. the sci lead to triggering of secondary complications such as inflammation that in turn has a key role in neurodegeneration development. the previous studies showed that tnf-α and inos genes expression increased significantly after sci. as a consequence, these genes overexpression intensify the inflammation...
