摘要: 目的研究casPase-3在戊四氮(Pentylenetetrazole,PTZ)急性致痫大鼠脑组织中的表达情况。方法免疫组织化学SP法显示海马及皮层casPase-3阳性细胞,CMIAS图像分析系统半定量分析casPase-3蛋白的含量。结果癫痫发作后海马及皮层casPase-3蛋白的表达水平均增加,且海马组织较皮层组织增加更为明显。结论CasPase-3 参与了癫痫后脑组织神经元的凋亡过程;在癫痫发作所致的神经元损伤中,海马较皮层可能更为敏感。

Abstract: ObjectiveTo investigate the expression of caspase-3 in the brain of acutely pentylenetetrazole(PTZ)-kindled rats.MethodsThe caspase-3 positive cells were revealed using immunohistochemical SP method. CMIAS image analysis system was used to analyse the expression of caspase-3 hemi-quantitatively. ResultsFollowing PTZ induced epilepsy, the expression of caspase-3 increased both in the hippocampus and in the cortex, and that was more remarkable in the hippocampus than in the cortex.ConclusionCaspase-3 may be activated during neuronal apoptosis after epilepsy. Hippocampus is more sensitive to the neuronal damage due to epilepsy than the cortex is.
