摘要:

采用单纯感染或缺血缺氧法所制备脑性瘫痪动物模型均不能有效的模拟早产儿脑损伤。实验将受孕17 d的健康Wistar孕鼠进行脂多糖腹腔注射及缺氧干预后,以4周龄幼鼠进行试验,同时设颈动脉结扎+缺氧组及对照组进行对比。足印步态重复间距分析试验、平衡木试验、水迷宫试验、神经电生理试验、病理学检测结果显示,生后4周幼鼠与对照组相比,脂多糖缺氧组和颈动脉结扎+缺氧组幼鼠前后肢足印重复间距增大;通过平衡木潜伏期时间较差;水迷宫定位航行和空间探索记忆能力较差;后肢股四头肌复合动作电位引出最大波幅所需的刺激强度增大;间脑室周围组织神经细胞结构紊乱形态不规则,胞膜部分缺损,胞浆内容物外溢。结果证实,实验利用Wistar孕鼠腹腔注射脂多糖宫内感染合并缺氧干预的方法成功制备了Wistar幼鼠脑性瘫痪模型,方法简单可靠。

Abstract:

Animal models of cerebral palsy established by simple infection or the hypoxia/ischemia method cannot effectively simulate the brain injury of a premature infant. Healthy 17-day-pregnant Wistar rats were intraperitoneally injected with lipopolysaccharide then subjected to hypoxia. The pups were used for this study at 4 weeks of age. Simultaneously, a hypoxia/ischemia group and a control group were used for comparison. The results of the footprint test, the balance beam test, the water maze test, neuroelectrophysiological examination and neuropathological examination demonstrated that, at 4 weeks after birth, footprint repeat space became larger between the forelimbs and hindlimbs of the rats, the latency period on the balance beam and in the Morris water maze was longer, place navigation and ability were poorer, and the stimulus intensity that induced the maximal wave amplitude of the compound muscle action potential was greater in the lipopolysaccharide/hypoxia and hypoxia/ischemia groups than in the control group. We observed irregular cells around the periventricular area, periventricular leukomalacia and breakage of the nuclear membrane in the lipopolysaccharide/hypoxia and hypoxia/ischemia groups. These results indicate that we successfully established a Wistar rat pup model of cerebral palsy by intraperitoneal injection of lipopolysaccharide and hypoxia.
