Abstract
Objective
To study the effect of compound Lactobacillus acidophilus on the apoptosis of intestinal epithelial cells and expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) in rats with necrotizing enterocolitis, so as to provide some theoretical reference for the application of compound Lactobacillus acidophilus in the prevention and treatment of necrotizing enterocolitis(NEC) for newborn infants.
Methods
Thirty-six 48-hour old newborn SD rats were randomly divided into normal group, model group and intervention group, with 12 rats in each group.The NEC model was established by hypoxia and cold stimulation for 3 days, and the intervention group was given the compound Lactobacillus acidophilus at the same time; after the model was established, all the rats were sacrificed after 12 hours of fasting and their intestinal tissues were excised by terminal-deoxynucleoitidyl transferase mediated nick end labeling (TUNEL) method to determine the condition of apoptosis and to detect expression of the PCNA gene in the intestinal tissues by fluorescent quantitative PCR.
Results
(1) The apoptosis rates of the intestinal tissues: in the model group, the normal group and the intervention group were (88.33±2.77)%, (4.75±0.75)% and (44.41±4.81)%, respectively, and the differences had statistical significance(all P<0.05). (2) The PCNA expression in the intestinal tissue by real-time PCR in the model group, normal group and intervention group were (9.28±3.26)×10-4, (15.35±1.91)×10-4 and (12.09±3.06)×10-4, respectively, and the differences had statistical significance(all P<0.05).
Conclusions
The apoptosis rate of intestinal epithelial cells increases and PCNA expression decreases when NEC occurs.Compound Lactobacillus acidophilus can reduce apoptosis, promote intestinal epithelial cell proliferation, and thus help to reduce the risk and severity of NEC in neonatal rats.

期刊介绍:
Chinese Journal of Applied Clinical Pediatrics ( semi-monthly ) is a core journal of paediatrics under the supervision of China Association for Science and Technology, sponsored by Chinese Medical Association and undertaken by Xinxiang Medical College. Founded in 1986, it is openly circulated both at home and abroad. The journal has several columns, such as Expert Forum, Experimental Research and Paediatric Surgery, which are mainly for paediatric medical workers and medical researchers in hospitals. Its purpose is to reflect the new theories and technologies in paediatric medicine and scientific research at home and abroad, and to promote academic exchanges.
Chinese Journal of Applied Clinical Pediatrics is a source journal of China Science Citation Database (CSCD), a core journal of Peking University, a source journal of Chinese science and technology paper statistics (China Science and Technology Core Journals), a core academic journal of RCCSE, a high-quality scientific and technical journal of China, a high-quality scientific and technical journal of China Association for Science and Technology, and a high-quality scientific and technical journal of China Biomedical Science and Technology Association. We have been published in China Biomedical Literature Database (SinoMed), China Knowledge Network, Wanfang Data Knowledge Service Platform, China Academic Journal Abstracts, Scopus Database, Chemical Abstracts (USA), Japan Science and Technology Agency (JSTA) Database, Copernicus Abstracts (Poland), Abstracts of the Centre for Agricultural and Biological Sciences (CABS) of the United Kingdom, Cambridge Scientific Abstracts ProQuest Database, WHO Medical Journal of the Western Pacific Region (WMPR), and WHO Medical Journal of the Western Pacific Region (WMPR) of the United States. We have been included in dozens of authoritative databases at home and abroad, such as WHO Western Pacific Region Index of Medicine (WPRIM), Ullrich's Guide to Periodicals, and so on.
