A comparative study of the nervous tissue and distribution of the spine apparatus protein synaptopodin was performed in all
layers of the brain sensorimotor cortex and hippocampal CAl area in control rats and in the rats exposed to hypoxia at E14
and E18. It was found that beginning from the 20th day of postnatal development, a statistically significant decrease of the
mean number of labile synaptopodin-positive spines in the stratum radiatum moleculare of the hippocampal area CAl was observed
in rats exposed to hypoxia both at E14 and E18. The decrease of the number of labile spines in the sensorimotor brain cortex
was revealed only in the I layer beginning from the 20th day after birth in the rats exposed to hypoxia at E14. Maximal differences
in the studied brain areas were observed in adult rats exposed to hypoxia at E14 in the neocortex—a decrease by 23 ± 10%,
in hippocampus—by 24 ± 8%, respectively. However, no increased degeneration of neurons was detected in adult animals. It is
suggested that disturbances in cognitive functions and in the capability for learning observed in rats after prenatal hypoxia
can be due to a decrease of the amount of the labile synaptopodin-positive spines, which leads to a change of the structural-functional
properties of neuronal networks and to a decrease of their plasticity. 相似文献

The performed study has shown that in rats submitted to hypoxia (3 h, 7% O2) at the 14th day of embryogenesis (E14) as compared with control animals, density of disposition of cells in the brain cortex decreased for the first month of postnatal ontogenesis (maximally by 40.8% by P20). In dying neurons, swelling of the cell body, lysis of organoids, and disturbance of the cytoplasmic membrane intactness were observed. Two waved of neuronal death by the mechanism of caspase-dependent apoptosis were revealed; the first involved large pyramidal neurons of the V layer (P10-20), the second--small pyramidal and non-pyramidal neurons of the II--III layers (P20-30). In neuropil of molecular layer, a decrease of the mean amount of labile synaptopodin-positive dendrite spines was observed, as compared with control. In rats exposed to hypoxia at E18, no changes of cell composition and structure of the nervous tissue were found in the studied brain cortex areas. Thus, formation of the cortex nervous tissue in postnatal ontogenesis of rats submitted to hypoxia at the period of neuroblast proliferation-migration is accompanied not only by a change of the cell composition of various cortex layers in early ontogenesis, but also by a decrease of the number of the synaptopodin-positive spines in molecular layer, the decrease being preserved in adult animals. 相似文献

Using a model of acute hypoxia during pregnancy of rats, changes in the development of old (hippocampus) and new (sensorimotor) cortex associated with disturbance of neuronogenesis have been revealed in the studied brain structures at the period of action of a pathological factor. It was found that in rats submitted to hypoxia at the 13–14th days of embryogenesis, the number of degenerating neurons (including the pyramidal ones) at various levels of chromatolysis increased since the 5th day after birth; the increase was present for the entire first month of postnatal development. In the cortex of rat pups submitted to prenatal hypoxia there were observed deformation of neuronal bodies, vacuoles in the cytoplasm, shrinkage of apical dendrites of pyramidal neurons and delayed development of the structure (time of the appearance of spikes, formation of structural elements and the size of the cells) of the nervous tissue of the brain of the rat pups exposed to prenatal hypoxia. The columnar structure of the cortex was disturbed. In hippocampus, the process of degeneration of neurons started by 2–3 days later than in the cortex; by two weeks of postnatal development a massive degeneration and death of a part of neurons were also revealed. The morphometrical analysis showed a decrease in the number of neurons and their total area in the sensorimotor cortex (the layer V) and an increase in the number of glial elements at the 10–17th days after birth. In the hippocampus a decrease in the area occupied by neurons and in their size was detected in adult animals. The adult rats submitted to prenatal hypoxia were found to have disturbances of memory and learning. A correlation was shown between the disturbances of the conditions of embryonic development and the changes in the ability of learning and storage of new skills in the offspring. 相似文献

By light microscopy (by Nissl and Golgi), electron microscopy, and immunohistochemistry methods, formation of structure of the brain striatum dorsolateral part from birth to the 3-month age was studied in rats submitted to acute hypoxia at the period of embryogenesis. It has been established that hypoxia at the 13.5th day (E13.5) leads to a delay of neuronogenesis for the first two weeks of postnatal development as compared with control animals, while the majority of large neurons at this period are degenerated by the type of chromatolysis with swelling cell body and processes and lysis of cytoplasmic organoids. By the end of the 3rd week, shrunk hyperchromic or picnomorphic neurons with the electron-dense cytoplasm and enlarged tubules of endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi complex were also observed. An increased number of swollen processes of glial cells was detected in neuropil around degenerating neurons. By the 30th day as well as in adult rats there was observed destruction of mitochondrial apparatus, an increase of the number of lysosomes, and the appearance of bladed nuclei - signs of apoptotic cell death, which was also confirmed by an increased expression of proapoptotic p53 protein and its colocalization with caspase-3 in a part of neurons. Morphometrical analysis has shown a decrease of density of striatum cell arrangement and a change of ratio of different cell types in the rats submitted to hypoxia as compared with control group. At early stages of postnatal ontogenesis there was the greatest decrease (42.3% at the 5th day, 14.2% at the 10th day, p < 0.01) of the number of large neurons with the area more than 80 microm2. After 3 weeks of postnatal development the number of middlesize neurons (30-95 microm2) decreased (by 11.8-19.2%) as compared with control. The obtained data show that a change of conditions of embryogenesis (hypoxia) at the period of the most intensive proliferation of the forebrain neuroblasts leads to disturbances of the process of formation of the striatum nervous tissue. This can be the cause of delay of development and disturbances of behavior and learning observed in rats submitted to prenatal hypoxia. 相似文献

Activity of the phosphoinositide system of intracellular signalization was studied in offspring of rats exposed to severe
hypobaric hypoxia at the 14–16th (group 1) or the 18–20th day (group 2) of prenatal hypoxia. At the age of 15 days, in animals
of both experimental groups the basal level of triphosphoinositides in the brain cortex was shown to be elevated as compared
with control. In the group 1, this parameter also remains elevated in adult animals. Application of glutamate produces a more
pronounced increase of the inositephosphates in brain slices of the 15-day old rats of the group 1 than in slices of animals
of the control group. In the 15-day old rats of the group 2, as compared with control, the phosphoinositide response to glutamate
application was reduced. No changes in the inositephosphate levels were revealed after application of glutamate upon slices
of adult (the 90-day old) control animals and of adult rats of the group 2. In slices of adult rats of the group 1, on the
contrary, the glutamate application produced an increase of the inositephosphate content. The obtained data indicate essential
changes of the phosphoinositide metabolism in the brain of rats exposed to action of hypoxia at the period of prenatal development.
The character and the severity of these changes depend on the period of development when action of hypoxia occurs. 相似文献

The levels of the lipid peroxidation products (LPO), different forms of protein SH-groups and their oxidation rate in the homogenates of the mesencephalon, hypothalamus and sensorymotor cortex of normal and GSH-deficient rats under 3-day food starvation were studied. It was shown, that the basic level of LPO products--lipid hydroperoxides and malonic dialdehyde (MDA) in hypothalamus and sensorymotor cortex of normal animals are by 20-30% (p < 0.05) higher and reduced glutathione (GSH) content is 2 times higher, than these values in mesencephalon. Under 3 day starvation of normal animals activation of the LPO observed only in the hypothalamus and sensorymotor cortex, whereas under 3 day starvation of the GSH-deficient rats formed by the intraparenteraly injection of diethylmaleate in a dose of 2.5 mmol/kg of body weight in all investigated structures the lipid hydroperoxides and MDA increased many times (2-3 times), the content of the surface and masked protein SH-groups decreased and essentially increased the oxidation rate of these functional groups. It was proposed that GSH and its enzymes participate in the LPO regulation and protection of protein SH-groups from oxidative damage at this event the intensity of this prosesse depends on structural and functional organization of nervous tissues. 相似文献

Incorporation of 14C-amino acid mixture into the cortex and cerebellum protein was studied in 7, 15, 30 days old rats after prenatal hypoxia. Prenatal hypoxic rats was shown to have alteration of the pattern of incorporation of label predecessors into brain protein. Prenatal hypoxia led to significant decrease of incorporation value at 30,000 molecular weight fractions. It is assumed that prenatal hypoxia results in selective changes of the brain protein synthesis. 相似文献

Summary In the present study we have investigated the effect of prenatal hypoxia on expression of amyloid precursor protein (APP)
and some metallopeptidases, which regulate β-amyloid peptide (Aβ) levels (neprilysin (NEP) and endothelin-converting enzyme
(ECE-1)) in the cortex of rats during different periods of postnatal development. We have found that the level of APP in the
sensorimotor cortex (SMC) of rats, analysed by Western blotting, increases from days 1 to 5 of postnatal development and then
steadily decreases with age, with the most dramatic decline in the period from day 180 to 600. In the cortex of rats subjected
to prenatal hypoxia on day 13.5 of embryogenesis, the postnatal levels of APP were higher than in the control. Secretion of
the soluble form of APP (sAPP) by α-secretase was found to be the most active on day 30 of postnatal development and there
was a significant decrease in the production of sAPP after prenatal hypoxia. NEP was found to be expressed in the cortex of
rats only at the early stages of postnatal development and it was barely detectable in adult rats. The decline of NEP levels
during ageing might contribute to accumulation of Aβ in later life in humans. Prenatal hypoxia resulted in a significant decrease
of NEP expression on day 10, but its level was recovered when animals were preconditioned to mild hypoxia. A similar phenomenon
was observed when the expression of ECE-1 was analysed. Overall, prenatal hypoxia leads to significant changes in the levels
of APP and expression of metallopeptidases involved in amyloid metabolism during all postnatal life and preconditioning to
hypoxia appeared to be neuroprotective. 相似文献

Microhemodynamics and oxygen tension (pO2) in the brain cortex tissues as well as the heart rate were studied in rodents with different ecological specialization during hypoxia produced by subcutaneous injection of sodium nitrite (3 mg/100 g body mass). It was shown that the blood flow in animals with low (rats) and high (muskrats) resistance to hypoxia decreased by the 30th min of the nitrite action, with its subsequent restoration to 85% and 83% of the initial level by the 60th min. The interspecies difference consisted in an increase of the brain blood flow (by 24%) in muskrats and a decrease (by 33%) in rats 15 min after the injection. In rats, simultaneously with the blood-flow dynamics, a pO2 increase was observed in some brain cortex microareas, while in others—a pO2 decrease 15 min after the NaNO2 injection: meanwhile, in muskrats, at this time period a significant pO2 decrease was observed on the background of a blood flow increase. In both animal species, the pO2 minimal value was reached by the 45th min, while restoration almost to the initial levels—by the 60th min of the nitrite action. Changes in the rats, synchronous and unidirectional with the heart rate frequency, of the brain blood-flow, as well as tachycardia developing throughout the whole experiment in rats allow suggesting that restoration of the oxygen regime in the brain cortex microareas is provided by activation of systemic mechanisms of regulation of circulation. 相似文献

Rats were exposed to hypobaric hypoxia (0.5 atm) for up to 3 wk. Hypoxic rats failed to gain weight but maintained normal brain water and ion content. Blood hematocrit was increased by 48% to a level of 71% after 3 wk of hypoxia compared with littermate controls. Brain blood flow was increased by an average of 38% in rats exposed to 15 min of 10% normobaric oxygen and by 23% after 3 h but was not different from normobaric normoxic rats after 3 wk of hypoxia. Sucrose space, as a measure of brain plasma volume, was not changed under any hypoxic conditions. The mean brain microvessel density was increased by 76% in the frontopolar cerebral cortex, 46% in the frontal motor cortex, 54% in the frontal sensory cortex, 65% in the parietal motor cortex, 68% in the parietal sensory cortex, 68% in the hippocampal CA1 region, 57% in the hippocampal CA3 region, 26% in the striatum, and 56% in the cerebellum. The results indicate that hypoxia elicits three main responses that affect brain oxygen availability. The acute effect of hypoxia is an increase in regional blood flow, which returns to control levels on continued hypoxic exposure. Longer-term effects of continued moderate hypoxic exposure are erythropoiesis and a decrease in intercapillary distance as a result of angiogenesis. The rise in hematocrit and the increase in microvessel density together increase oxygen availability to the brain to within normal limits, although this does not imply that tissue PO2 is restored to normal. 相似文献

It is known that age is an important factor for postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) and the patients with POCD suffer from the impairment of multiple brain regions and multiple brain functions. However currently animal studies of POCD mainly focus on hippocampus region, therefore in this study we performed partial hepatectomy in young adult and aged rats to test the questions (1) whether POCD in animals involves other brain areas besides hippocampus; (2) how age influences POCD of young adult and aged animals. We found that (1) in young adult rats, the memory was not significantly affected (P>0.05) 1d, 3d and 7d after partial hepatectomy, but was significantly impaired (p<0.001) in aged rats 1d and 3d post-surgery; (2) in young adult rats, the surgery did not significantly affect the densities of dendritic spines of neurons at CA1, dentate gyrus (DG) and cingulate cortex (P>0.05, respectively) 1d and 3d post-surgery, but the spine densities at CA1 and DG of aged rats were significant reduced 1d and 3d post-surgery (p<0.001, respectively), however this didn’t happen at cingulate cortex (P>0.05); (3) In young adult rats, surgery didn’t affect the activation of microglia and levels of TNF-α and IL-1β at hippocampus (P>0.05), but significantly activated microglia and increased levels of TNF-α and IL-1β at hippocampus of aged rats (P<0.05). Our data suggest that (1) partial hepatectomy-induced POCD mainly involves hippocampus impairments, and (2) differential loss of neuronal dendritic spines and neuroinflammation at hippocampus are most likely the mechanism for the formation of POCD in aged rats. 相似文献

The authors studied the effect of short-term (20 min) hypobaric hypoxia at simulated altitudes of 7000 and 9000 m on the peroxidation of lipids in the cerebral cortex, subcortical formations, medulla oblongata and cerebellum of the laboratory rat. In 5- and 21-day-old rats, increased lipoperoxidation was recorded in all the studied regions of the brain. Differences were observed in sensitivity to the degree of hypoxia. In 5-day-old rats the response to both exposures was the same, but in 21-day-old animals exposure at 7000 m stimulated peroxidation in the cerebral cortex only (at 9000 m in all the parts of the CNS examined). In 35-day-old and adult rats, changes in the malondialdehyde concentration were likewise found after exposure at 9000 m, but not in every compartment (in 35-day-old rats in the cerebral cortex and subcortical formations and in adult rats in the cerebral cortex). In young rats, 30 and 60 min after exposure to hypoxia the malondialdehyde concentration was still higher than in older animals. 相似文献

A comparative analysis of 339 protein fractions of cerebral cortex of rats both resistant and non-resistant to oxygen deficiency has been fulfilled by means of two-dimensional gel-electrophoresis. A specific group of 9 protein fractions with molecular weights in the range of 32-68 kD was found to be quantitatively changed under hypoxia influence. An activation of labile protein synthesis was a predominant response to acute hypoxia in the resistant rats, while the synthesizing processes in the non-resistant rats were rather weak. An adaptation to hypoxia mostly resulted in the decrease of quantitative representations of labile protein fractions and has been realizing in different ways in resistant and nonresistant rats. The data obtained seem to testify to the changes of protein synthesis under chronic hypoxia conditions in the cerebral cortex chiefly determined by fast adaptation mechanisms. 相似文献

Using light microscopy (Nissl and Golgi techniques), electron microscopy and immunohistochemistry, formation of structure of the brain striatum dorsolateral part from birth to three month of age was studied in rats submitted to acute hypoxia at the period of embryogenesis. Hypoxia at the 13.5th day of pregnancy (E 13.5) was found to lead to a delay of neuronogenesis for the first two weeks of postnatal development as compared with control animals, and the majority of large neurons for this period were degenerated by the type of chromatolysis with swelling of the cell body and processes and lysis of cytoplasmic organelles. By the end of the third week, shrunken hyperchromic or pycnomorphic neurons with the electron-dense cytoplasm and enlarged tubules of endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi complex were also observed. An increased number of swollen processes of glial cells was found in neuropil around the degenerating neurons. By the 30th day as well as in adult animals, destruction of mitochondrial apparatus, an increased number of lysosomes, and blade-shaped nuclei, which are characteristics of the apoptotic cell death, were observed. This is also confirmed by an increased expression of proapoptotic protein (p53) and its co-localization with caspase-3 in a part of neurons. Morphometric analysis showed a decrease of the cell distribution density in striatum and a change of ratio of different cell types in hypoxia-exposed rats as compared with control group. The most pronounced decrease (42.3% at the 5th day, 14.2% at the 10th day, p < 0.01) of the number of large neurons (larger than 80 μm2) was revealed at early stages of postnatal ontogenesis. After 3 postnatal weeks, the number of middle-sized neurons (30–95 μm2) decreased (by 11.8–19.2% as compared with control, p < 0.05). The obtained data have shown that changes of embryogenesis conditions (hypoxia) at the period of the most intensive proliferation of telencephalon neuroblasts lead to impairment of the process of striatal nervous tissue formation. This might be the cause of delay of development and disturbances of behavior and learning, which are observed in rats exposed to prenatal hypoxia. 相似文献

The paper summarizes results of studying the acute hypoxia model during pregnancy in rats. A relationship has been demonstrated between changes of conditions of embryonal development and formation in postnatal ontogenesis of molecular-cellular mechanisms of brain functioning and behavior of progeny. In animals exposed to hypoxia at the prenatal 13–14th day a delay of physiological development and formation of motor reactions has been revealed, which correlates with disturbances of structures of the sensorimotor brain system. Changes of properties of brain transmitter systems and signal transduction systems in the sensorimotor cortex and striatum as well as impairment of learning capability in adult animals were shown. The detected changes in development of an organism are due to disturbance of neurogenesis of the studied brain structures during the period of action of the pathological factor. The proposed model of acute hypoxia during pregnancy might also be effective for the search for, and testing of, new neuroprotective and nootropic drugs and for elaboration of strategy for treatment of pathology of the nervous system in children and adults submitted to prenatal hypoxia, as well as for correction of disturbances of nervous system functions, which develop in the process of aging. 相似文献

Blood–brain, blood–CSF and ventricular CSF–brain barriers to protein, are present very early in brain development. In order to determine whether the outer pial surface of the brain also restricts free penetration of macromolecules, the dorso-lateral part of the sensorimotor cortex from rats at embryonic day 12 (E12), 14, 16, and 18, the day of birth (P0), and adult rat, was studied by electron microscopical techniques. Potassium ferrocyanide, Ruthenium Red and immunogold labelling of endogenous albumin were used to investigate junctional structures and the sites of restriction to albumin diffusion. At E12, large fenestrated sinusoids were present in the pia-arachnoid and the brain surface was formed by an incomplete layer of neuroepithelial and presumptive radial glial end feet, but capillaries in the pia-arachnoid showed no fenestrations at E14 or later. From E14, we observed the progressive appearance of distinct junctional structures between the glial end feet which, to our knowledge, have not been described before. Analysis of albumin distribution from E16 to P0 suggests that the junctions may contribute to restriction of diffusion between the subarachnoid space and the brain extracellular fluid. The restriction to the penetration of protein at both the pial and the ependymal surfaces may ensure the isolation of the neural environment during a critical phase in development of the nervous system. The changes in the structure of the junctions between E12 and P0 suggests a transitional series of embryonic junctional types, which eventually give way to the mature junctions of the adult. Parallels between the embryonic glial junctions and junctions described in adult invertebrate brain, suggest some interesting parallels in junctional development in phylogeny and ontogeny. 相似文献

Using rats (Wistar strain) of our own breed, we studied dopamine-beta-hydroxylase (E.C. 1.14.17.1) (DBH) activity in the plasma of animals of different ages (in correlation to sex) under normal conditions and after exposure to altitude hypoxia (corresponding to 7000 or 9000 m and lasting 20 min). The enzyme was determined by the method of Kato et al. (1974). We found that the given plasma enzyme activity was significantly higher in females than in males, throughout the whole life-span. In addition, we found that minimum activity was reached on about the 14th and 21st day of postnatal life and again on the 40th day, while maximum activity was recorded at the ages of 5, 30 and 35 days and in adult rats. In adult animals (males and females), exposure to altitude hypoxia was followed by a statistically significant increase in plasma DBH activity, which was much more pronounced in females than in males. In males, 240 min after terminating hypoxia plasma DBH activity had returned to normal, but in females it was still significantly raised; after 48 h, plasma DBH activity in females was identical to the activity before exposure to hypoxia. In rats aged 5 and 35 days, hypoxia evoked a fluctuating response. A decrease in activity immediately after terminating hypoxia was followed at 60 min by a return to normal, but at 240 min there was again a significant decrease. In 21-day-old rats, hypoxia did not induce any significant change in plasma DBH activity (the initial activity level in this group was very low). 相似文献
