近年来,人体解剖学学科每年均有高学历青年人加入教师队伍.由于目前存在发表论文和申请课题的压力,多数研究生学位课题选择分子层面的研究内容,与解剖学教学内容吻合度较低.这直接导致了新教师在任教之初,往往存在解剖学理论知识、操作技能薄弱,缺乏教学经验,育人意识及能力欠缺,课堂难以驾驭等等问题,甚或产生迷茫、无处着手、不知所措等畏难情绪.如何能尽快进入教师角色、胜任教师工作,是每个初为人师的新教师必须面对的问题.
临床医学不断发展,大量诊疗方法不断更新以及各种现代化的教学手段层出不穷,在教学内容和教学方式等诸多方面对人体解剖学的教学提出严峻挑战.文章就解剖学课程特点,结合教学过程中的体会,在如何激发学生学习热情和兴趣以及充分调动教师积极性、提高教学水平等方面提出建议和设想,以探索更适应时代发展的解剖学教学方法.
Pentylenetetrazole (PTZ), a γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA(A)) receptor antagonist, has been used extensively to induce seizures in animal models of epilepsy. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of PTZ on hippocampal astrocytes. Cells were incubated with 10, 20, or 40 mM PTZ for 24h and viability and apoptosis were examined using an MTT assay and Hoechst staining. The high concentration of PTZ (20 and 40 mM) resulted in a significant decrease in viability (MTT: 83.6 ± 7.8% and 69.3 ± 4.2%, respectively) (P<0.01), whereas the lower concentration of PTZ (10mM) did not induce cell apoptosis or reduce viability. When cells were treated with 10mM PTZ for 0, 0.5, 2, 4, 8, 12, or 24h, the level of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), both protein and mRNA, was significantly reduced at 2 to 12h of culture (P<0.01), with maximal reduction detected at 8h; expression was restored to near control levels after 24h. Collectively, our results suggest that astrocytes may participate in epilepsy through a marked, but transient decrease in BDNF expression.
Objective To study of the hypoxic tolerance effect of compound rhodiola mixure in Mice.Methods The effects of compound rhodiola mixure on hypoxia tolerance in mice were measured through three kinds of experiments: the closed normobaric hypoxia mice ex periment,NaNO2poisoning-hypoxia experiment and acute cerebral ischemic-hypoxico experiment.Forty mice were used in each experi ment,and mice were randomly divided 4 groups: bland control group;low dose group,middle dose group and high dose group,and com pared the average survival time of each group.Results Compared with blank control group,three dose of compound rhodiola mixure could obviously improve the survival time of mice with the closed normobaric hypoxia and NaNO2 poisoning-hypoxia experiment(P 0.05 orP0.01).Low dose of compound rhodiola mixure could not obviously improve the survival time of mice with acute cerebral isch emic(P0.05);but middle and high dose groups could obviously improve the survival time of mice with acute cerebral ischemic(P 0.05).Conclusion Compound rhodiola mixure can effectively improve the ability of hypoxia tolerance of mice.
Objective To investigate the neurotoxicity of β-amyloid protein (Aβ) in vivo and its effects on rats' learning and memory ability. Methods The aggregated Aβ(25-35) was injected bilaterally into entorbi- hal cortex(EC) of rats. Control rats were injected with saline water. All rats were subjected to Y-maze task at 7 d and 8d after operation. After behavioral testing, the rats were sacrificed. The neurpathological changes of EC were examined by Nissl staining, HE staining and Congo Red staining. Results The cumulative number of electric shocks in acquisition test and retention test of the saline group was 19.17±5.58 and 10.56±1.72 31 respectively. The corresponding number in Aβ-treated rats was 31.13±6.98 and 18.47±4.64, and significantly increased compared with control group (P<0.05). A Congo Red-positive deposit of aggregated material was found at Aβ injection site accompanied by neurons loss and gliacyte reaction. The damaged area of Aβ-treated rats was significandy greater than that of control rats and was negatively correlated with the learning ability (r=-0.241, P < 0.05). Conclusion Bilateral injection of aggregated Aβ into EC induces behavioral deficits and amyloid pathology similar to those observed in early phases of AD. These results show definite neurotoxicity of Aβ in vivo. Therefore, injection of Aβ into EC constitutes a promising animal model for investigating selective aspects of AD and for screening drug candidates designed against Aβ pathology.
Objective To investigate lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induced acute cerebral inflammatory damage and the therapeutic effect of ginkgolide B (BN52021). Methods Thirty Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into 3 groups ( n = 10 for each group): Control group, Model group and Treatment group (treated with BN52021). LPS were injected into the fourth ventricle of rat to make a neuroinflammatory murine model. Morris water maze was used to detect the learning and memory ability of rats; changes of synapse number and subcellular ultrastructures were observed under a transmission electron microscope; OX-42 positive microglia in the brain was detected by immunohistochemical method. Results The average escape latency in the Treatment group were significantly shortened than that in the Model group; and the percentage of swimming distance traveled in platform quadrant accounting for total distance increased markedly. The rough endoplasmic reticulum and polyribosomes in the Treatment group were more than that in the Model group, but the number of synapses seemed to have no obvious change. The number of OX-42 positive microglia in the Treatment group decreased markedly than that in the Model group, and the grey density of OX-42-positive cells increased significantly. Conclusion LPS can induce inflammatory damages to the brain, but the damage could be antagonized by BN52021. Platelet activating factor receptor antagonist may offer an effective therapy for neurodegeneration diseases.

BACKGROUND: As a result of immature brain of children and their imperfect blood brain barrier, improper clinical treatment would affect growth and development of children. It is fully important to perform further investigation on immature brain injury induced neurodegeneration.OBJECTIVE: To observe the ultramicrostructure of neurons in homolateral parietal cortex and hippocampus in newborn 7-day SD rat with contusion of parietal cortex.DESIGN: Completely randomized controlled trial.SETTING: Laboratories of Nerve Morphology and Cytobiology, Medical College of Shanghai Jiaotong University; Electron Microscope Room of Institute for Physiology, Chinese Academy of Science.MATERIALS: The experiment was performed in Teaching and Research Section of Anatomy, Laboratories of Nerve Morphology and Cytobiology ofShanghai Second Medical University (Medical College of Shanghai Jiaotong University; Electron Microscope Room of Institute for Physiology of Chinese Academy of Science from October 2002 to June 2003. A total of 19newborn 7-day SD rats were randomly divided into experimental group, operation control group and normal control group with 15, 2 and 2 in each group respectively.METHODS: In experimental group, free-fall device for brain injury was used for establishing model of contusion of parietal cortex in newborn 7-day SD rat. Anesthesia and scalp incision were conducted, without using free-fall device in operation control group. But above procedures were not carried out in normal control group. The changes of ultramicrostructure were observed under transmission electron microscope after routine treatment of electron microscopic samples.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Ultramicrostructure of neurons in homolateral parietal cortex and hippocampus.RESULTS: All the 19 rats entered results analysis. ① There were two sorts of morphological changes in neurons in experimental group. One was evident swelling of dendrites and bodies of neurons, accompanied with the changes of organelles. In the early stage, expansion of endoplasmic reticulum cisterna could be observed and mitochondria became compact and concentrated. Then, vacuolization of endoplasmic reticulum, progressive swelling and vacuolization of mitochondria, dissociation of polysomes from rough endoplasmic reticulum and scattering of them in cytoplasm could be seen. Changes of nucleolus presented after significant changes of cytoplasm. Nuclear chromatin clustered together under karyotheca and arranged as clockface, which were some masses with irregular contours gathering to the center. Axons were almost normal. The other was concentration of cytoplasm and nucleolus with vacuolizations of unequal size in cytoplasm. ②There was no abnormal change in neurons in homolateral parietal cortex and hippocampus both in operation control group and normal control group.CONCLUSION: Swelling of brain cell and concentration of cytoplasm and nucleolus after brain injury play important roles in brain injury-induced neurodegeneration of immature rats.

本工作报道了血管内照射(650nm,5mW,cw)对家兔尾核、下丘脑DA和NE的影响,发现DA在尾核和下丘脑中均有下降现象,但均P>0.05.在大鼠光照"扶突"穴中亦发现DA在脑干和尾核中,亦有下降倾向,NE有脑干和尾核中则有上升倾向.5-HT则均下降,但亦均未达显著性差异,(P>0.05).另发现在人体血管内照射时,血液中NO.含量随照射次数增加而递减倾向.这些变化作者认为与光照的光化学反应引发的神经体液性调控有关.在本工作中还发现光照后神经未梢中的线粒体有肿胀现象.
