Effects of astrocyte and microglia on spinal cord injury of the rabbits in decompression sickness
Objective
To investigate the effects of astrocyte and microglia on spinal cord injury of the rabbits in decompression sickness (DCS).
Methods
Twenty-one healthy adult male New Zealand rabbits were averagely divided into 3 groups according to random number table: control group, safety relief group and DCS group. Experimental animals were placed in the pressure cabin. Safety relief group model referred to the Chinese Navy diving decompression tables when decompression applied. In DCS group, the pressure equably was increased to 0.8 MPa (absolute pressure) within 5 min by compressed air, maintained for 60 min and then equably decompressed to normal pressure within 5 min. The change of pathology morphology in the spinal cord of thoracolumbar vertebra was observed by light microscope. The expression of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein (GFAP) mRNA were measured by real-time polymerase chain reaction (real-time PCR) and the expression of TNF-α, GFAP, ionized calcium binding adapter molecule 1 (IBA1) protein was measured by immunohistochemistry method.
Results
There were some cavity formations on white matter of spinal cord in DCS group. The relative expression of TNF-α mRNA was higher in DCS (6.28±1.73) than that in control group (1.00±0.14) and in safety relief group (1.34±0.42) (P<0.01). The relative expression of GFAP mRNA was higher in DCS (7.39±2.04) than in that control group (1.02±0.26) and in safety relief group (1.63±0.90) (P<0.01). The expression of TNF-α protein was significantly higher in DCS group (24.14±2.61) than that in control group (6.71±1.25) and in safety relief group (8.28±1.11) (P<0.01). The expression of GFAP protein was also significantly higher in DCS (18.20±4.38) than that in control group (4.30±2.70) and in safety relief group (6.20±2.92) (P<0.01). The expression of IBA1 protein was also significantly higher in DCS (21.53±1.37) than that in control group (5.94±0.36) and in safety relief group (6.69±0.81) (P<0.01).
Conclusions
The astrocyte and microglia may play a key role in pathophysiology of spinal cord injury. They are activated in the early stage of DCS and accompanied with massive release of TNF-α, which causes excessive inflammation reaction and induces the spinal cord injury finally.

期刊介绍:
The aim of Chinese Journal of Aerospace Medicine is to combine theory and practice, improve and popularize, actively advocate a hundred flowers bloom and a hundred schools of thought contend, advocate seeking truth from facts, promote the development of the related disciplines of aerospace medicine and human efficiency, and promote the exchange and penetration of aerospace medicine and human efficiency with other biomedical and engineering specialties.
Topics of interest for Chinese Journal of Aerospace Medicine include:
-The content of the journal belongs to the discipline of special medicine and military medicine, with the characteristics of multidisciplinary synthesis and cross-penetration, and mainly reflected in the aerospace industry, aerospace flight safety and efficiency, as well as the synthesis of special medicine, preventive medicine, environmental medicine, psychology, etc.
-Military aeromedicine (Air Force, Navy and Army aeromedicine) and civil aeromedicine, with a balance of aerospace medicine are the strengths of the journal.
-The change in aerospace medicine from a focus on promoting physiological compensatory adaptations to enhancing human performance under extreme environmental conditions is what the journal is helping to promote.
-The expansion of manuscripts in high altitude medicine is also a special emphasis of the journal.
