Abstract:OBJECTIVEDorsal raphe nucleus(DRN)is the largest single collection of neurons containing 5-HT in the entire brain and particularly attractive in a wide variety of complex physiological and behav⁃ioral processes,such as sleep-wake regulation.Calmodulin dependent kinaseⅡ(CaMKⅡ)and protein kinase C(PKC)are important signal-transducing molecules activated by Ca2+.Since the Ca2+modulation in DRN plays an important role in sleep-wake regulation,it should be presumed that the intracellular CaMKⅡ/PKC signaling in DRN may be involved in the regulation of sleep-wake.METHODSThe poly⁃somnogram consisting of EEG and EMG was recorded for analyzing sleep architecture.Immunohisto⁃chemisrty and Western-blotting methods were used in this study to investigate the roles of Ca2+,CaMKⅡand PKC in sleep-wake regulation in rat DRN.RESULTSCa2+in the DRN exert arousal effects by reducing the NREMs,SWS and REMs via up-regulating serotonergic functions and activating CaMKⅡ-PKC. However,inhibition of PKC leads to significant promotion of total sleep time especially the NREM sleep, but there were no changes in sleep parameters after the inhibition of CaMKⅡby its inhibitor KN-93 in DRN.CONCLUSIONThe molecular,pharmacological,and behavioral findings of this study demonstrate a novel wake promoting and sleep-suppressing role for the Ca2+/CaMKⅡ/PKC signaling pathway in DRN.Abnormalities in CaMKⅡ are found in patients with several neurological disorders that are associated with disturbed sleep,such as schizophrenia,depression,and Alzheimer′s disease.Several psychotropic drugs modulate CaMKⅡ activity.In addition,PKC is a cellular target of most current mood stabilizing and anti-manic agents and involved in bipolar disorder.The data of the present study raise the question whether PKC or CaMKⅡmodulations may also be effective on the sleep disorders or the mood disorders associated with sleep disorders.

摘要:目的本实验旨在研究EphB4是否参与调节了人胚胎神经干细胞的增殖、分化、凋亡活动,并探索其下游信号通路。方法培养原代人胚胎神经干细胞,使用沉默慢病毒与过表达慢病毒转染细胞,分别下调和上调EphB4蛋白表达水平。检测EphB4对细胞增殖、分化、凋亡的影响并探索其下游信号通路。结果EphB4基因沉默后,抑制细胞增殖及向神经元分化,促进细胞向胶质细胞分化,对细胞凋亡无影响。EphB4基因过表达后,促进细胞增殖及向神经元分化,抑制细胞向胶质细胞分化,对细胞凋亡无影响。EphB4是通过下游信号通路Abl-Cyclin D1调节细胞增殖,此信号通路不参与EphB4在细胞分化方面的调节。结论EphB4参与调节神经干细胞增殖,而且是决定神经干细胞向神经元分化还是向胶质细胞分化的开关,是调节干细胞增殖、迁移和分化的新信号通路,其很可能成为脑卒中后神经元修复的有效治疗靶点。

Abstract:OBJECTIVETo fabricate Silymarin(SM)nanosuspensions(NSs)and evaluate their protective effect on stress-induced liver injury.METHODSSM nanosuspensions were tailored by combination of the anti-solvent precipitation and high pressure homogenization(HPH);the formulations were optimized by central composite design.The pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of SM-NSs were also performed.RESULTSIn light of the quadratic mathematical equations derived from the Design of Expert Software,the optimal formulation of SM-NSs consisted of PVP 0.34%and F188 0.36%.The morphology of NSs was found to be spherical with a diameter of about 150 nm using transmission electron microscope(TEM)observation.The pharmacokinetics experiment demonstrated that oral administration of SM-NSs signifi⁃cantly increased its bioavailability compared to the coarse powder(Cmax:9.03±2.39mg·L-1;AUMC0→∞:3757.35±227.19 mg·L-1·h;AUC0→∞:171.84±26.61 mg·L-1·h).In pharmacodynamics,it was found that restraint stress produced oxidative effects and increased serum AST and ALT levels in mice,both of which were significantly inhibited by SM and SM-NSs;in addition,administration of SM-NSs showed more effective prevention against acute liver injury than SM coarse suspensions(r2=0.986,0.984,P<0.05).CONCLUSIONThe results suggest that fabricated SM-NSs exert potent hepatoprotective effects and attenuate restraint stress-induced liver injury.The study provides an effective approach to improving the property of SM,which can be used for treatment of liver diseases.

The basal ganglia(BG)act as a cohesive functional unit that regulates motor function,habit formation,and reward/addictive behaviors.However,it is still not well understood how the BG maintains wakefulness and suppresses sleep to achieve all these fundamental functions until genetically engineered systems developed these years.Significant research efforts have recently been directed at developing genetic-molecular tools to achieve reversible and cell-type specificin vivosilencing or activation of neurons in behaving animals.Optogenetic tools can be used both to specifically activate or inhibit neurons of interest and identify functional synaptic connectivity between specific neuronal populations,bothin vivoand in brain slices.Another recently developed system by Roth and colleagues permits the selective and″remote″manipulation(activation and silencing)of neuronal activity via all 3 major GPCR signaling pathways(Gi,Gsand Gq).These so-called″designer receptors exclusively activated by designer drugs″(DREADD)involve mutant GPCRs that do not respond to their endogenous ligands but are responsive to otherwise inert biological compounds.Recently,we demonstrated the essential roles and the neural pathways of the neurons expressing adenosine A2Areceptors or dopamine D1receptors in the BG for sleep-wake regulation using the genetically engineered systems including optogenetics and DREADD.We proposed a plausible model in which the caudate-putamen and the nucleus accumbens integrates behavioral processes with sleep/wakefulness through adenosine and dopamine receptors.
