Objective:To evaluate the effect of mitochondrial CB1 receptor (mtCB1) on mitochondrial fission in a rat hippocampal neuron model of hypoxia/re-oxygenation (H/R) injury.Methods:Primarily cultured hippocampal neurons obtained from Wistar rats were divided into 5 groups (n=60) using a random number table:normal group (N group):were cultured in normal medium,without any administration;H/R group:the hippocampal neurons were subjected to oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) for 6h followedby re-oxygenation for 20h;H/R+ACEA+AM251 group:ACEA and AM251 were add with respectively final concentration 1 umol/L,10 umol/L during the 20h re-oxygenation;H/R+ACEA+ Hemopressin group:ACEA and Hemopressin were add into culture medium with respectively final concentration 1 umol/L,10 umoVL during the re-oxygenation for 20h;H/R + Vehicle group (H/R+V group):DMSO was add into culture medium with final concentration <0.1% during the 20h re-oxygenation.Laser scanning confocal microscope was used to measure Ca2+ concentration in cytoplasm.The apoptosis rate was tested by flow cytometry.Western blot was adopted to examine the expression of apoptosis-inducing factor (AIF),dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp 1),fission 1 (Fis1),apoptosis-related protein cytochrome c (Cytc),and Rho-associated coiled-coil containing protein kinase (ROCK1).Results:Compared to the N group,the apoptosis rate,Ca2+concentration,the expression of AIF,Drp1,Fis1,Cytc and ROCK1were significantly increased in the other four groups (P<0.05);Compared to the H/R group,those detection indexes mentioned above were significantly decreased in H/R+ ACEA+ Hemopressin group (P<0.05),and there were no significant differences were observed in H/R+ACEA+AM251 group and H/R+ Vehicle group (P>0.05);Conclusion:The reduction of ROS induced by mtCB1 can alleviate the expression of ROCK1 and Ca2+ concentration in cytoplasm,and inhibit the mitochondrial fission,and eventually attenuate the H/R injury ofhippocampal neurons.
Objective To investigate the effect of Cuyu Shengjing Prescription in the treatment of infertility in mice and its mechanism.Methods A total of 50 clean male Kunming mice were randomly divided into blank control group,model group,and low-,medium-,and high-dose Cuyu Shengjing Prescription groups.Cyclophosphamide was used to establish a mouse model of oligoasthenospermia,and the Cuyu Shengjing Prescription groups were given Cuyu Shengjing Prescription for 35 d.An optical microscope was used to observe sperm density and motility,RT-PCR was used to measure the mRNA expression of activator of cAMP-responsive element modulator in testis (ACT),cAMP-responsive element modulator (CREM),and cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB) in testicular tissue,and Western blot was used to measure the protein expression of ACT,CREM,and CREB.Results The model group had significantly lower sperm density and motility than the normal group (F =2.83-121.16,P<0.05),suggesting that the mouse model of oligoasthenospermia was established successfully.The medium-and highdose Cuyu Shengjing Prescription groups had significantly higher sperm density than the model group (F=121.16,P<0.05),while there was no significant difference between the low-dose Cuyu Shengjing Prescription group and the model group (P>0.05).The low-and medium-dose Cuyu Shengjing Prescription groups had significantly higher sperm motility than the model group (F =2.83,18.94;P<0.05),while there was no significant difference between the high-dose Cuyu Shengjing Prescription group and the model group (P>0.05).The model group had significantly lower mRNA and protein expression of ACT,CREM,and CREB than the blank control group (F =16.28-154.32,P<0.05).The medium-dose Cuyu Shengjing Prescription group had significant increases in the mRNA and protein expression of ACT compared with the model group (F =29.04,64.28;P <0.05),while there were no significant differences between the low-and high-dose Cuyu Shengjing Prescription groups and the model group (P>0.05).Compared with the model group,the low-and medium-dose Cuyu Shengjing Prescription groups had significant increases in the mRNA and protein expression of CREM (F =17.77,41.83;P < 0.05),while there were no significant differences between the high-dose Cuyu Shengjing Prescription group and the model group (P>0.05).Compared with the model group,the low-dose Cuyu Shengjing Prescription group had significant increases in the mRNA and protein expression of CREB (F =16.89,154.32;P<0.05),while there were no significant differences between the medium-and high-dose Cuyu Shengjing Prescription groups and the model group (P>0.05).Conclusion Cuyu Shengjing Prescription can effectively improve the mRNA and protein expression of ACT,CREM,and CREB in testicular tissue in mice with oligoasthenospermia and improve sperm quality.

Objective To evaluate the role of mitochondrial fission in hypoxia-reoxygenation (H/ R) injury to hippocampal neurons of rats.Methods Primarily cultured hippocampal neurons obtained from newborn Wistar rats were randomly divided into 5 groups (n =60 each) using a random number table: normal group (N group), vehicle group (V group), H/R group, H/R + vehicle group (H/R + V group),and mitochondrial division inhibitor group (group M).The cells were cultured in normal culture medium in group N.Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) was added to the culture medium with the final concentration < 0.1%, and the cells were incubated for 40 min in group V.The cells were subjected to 6 h hypoxia, followed by 20 h reoxygenation in H/R, H/R+V and M groups.DMSO was added to the culture medium with the final concentration <0.1% at 40 min before hypoxia in group H/R+V.In group M, mitochondrial division inhibitor Mdivi-1 50 mmol/L (dissolved in DMSO, DMSO concentration <0.1%) was added to the culture medium at 40 min prior to hypoxia.Mito Tracker staining was used to examine mitochondrial morphology.Western blot was used to measure the expression of mitochondrial dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1), mitofusin 2 (Mfn2) , peroxisome proliferator activated receptor γ coactivator 1α (PGC-1α), nuclear respiratory factor-1 (NRF-1), and mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM).Multifunctional microplate reader and fluorescent microscope were used to detect the mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) level.The flow cytometer was used to detect the apoptosis in hippocampal neurons.Apoptosis rate was calculated.Results Compared with group N, the expression of Drp1, PGC-1α, NRF-1 and TFAM was significantly up-regulated, the ROS content and apoptosis rate were increased, and the expression of Mfn2 was down-regulated in group H/R (P<0.05).Compared with group H/R, the expression of Drp1 was significantly down-regulated, the ROS content and apoptosis rate were decreased, and the expression of Mfn2, PGC-1α, NRF-1 and TFAM was up-regulated in group M (P<0.05).Conclusion Mitochondrial fission is involved in H/R injury to hippocampal neurons of rats.
