Changes in structure of cholinergic neuron system of brain and receptor expression after brain injury can cause cognitive impairment. OBJECTIVE" To comparatively observe the intelligence quotient (IQ), latent period and wave amplitude of P300 event-related potential and the difference of activity of acetylcholinesterase (ACHE) in blood and cerebrospinal fluid between patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and with non-diabetes mellitus, and analyze the correlation of IQ of cognitive impairment patients with diabetes mellitus with AChE activity, latent period and wave amplitude of P300 event-related potential in cerebrospinal fluid. DESIGN: Correlation analysis of contrast observation SETTING: Department of Endocrinology, Affiliated Hospital of Binzhou Medical College PARTICIPANTS: Totally 32 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus who received the treatment in the Department of Endocrinology, Affiliated Hospital of Binzhou Medical College between April 2004 and April 2005 were recruited, serving as diabetes mellitus group. They, including 19 male and 13 female, aged 49 to 73 years, with disease course of 4 to 11 years, all met the diagnostic criteria of diabetes mellitus revised by World Health Organization in 1999. Another 30 patients with non-diabetes mellitus who homeochronously underwent lumbar anesthesia in the Department of Surgery and Department of Gynecology were recruited, serving as non-diabetes mellitus group. The 30 patients included 18 male and 12 female, and their age ranged from 46 to 71 years. Informed consents of detected items were obtained from the involved patients. METHODS: ① Evaluation,on IQ: The IQ of involved subjects was evaluated with Chinese Version of the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale revised by Gong Yao-xian (WAIS-RC). WAIS-RC included 6 verbal subscales and 5 performance subscales. The test scores of the 11 subscales integrated into the scores of the whole scale, and the scores on the WAIS-RC included verbal IQ (VlQ), performance IQ (PIQ) and full scale IQ (FIQ). FIQ ≤79 scores indicated low IQ and FIQ≤69 indicated intelligence impairment. ② Detection of P300 wave: P300 wave was detected with evoked potential instrument (MYTOPRO, Italian), and data of latent period and amplitude of P300 event-related potential were automatically shown by computer. ③ Detection of AChE activity in blood and cerebrospinal fluid: Activity of AChE of blood and cerebrospinal fluid was measured with biochemical methods by using CORNING-560 autoanalyzer.④Correlation analysis: Correlation of FIQ with AChE of cerebrospinal fluid and P300 wave of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus was analyzed, t test was used in intergroup comparison and linear correlation analysis for relevant treatment. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① Comparison of IQ, latent period and wave amplitude of P300 wave as well as the activity of AChE between two groups. ② Analysis on the correlation of FIQ of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus with AChE of cerebrospinal fluid and P300 wave. RESULTS: Thirty-two patients with diabetes mellitus and 30 non-diabetes mellitus participated in the result analysis. ①Comparison of IQ, latent period and wave amplitude of P300 wave as well as the activity of AChE between two groups: The scores of VIP, PIQ and FIQ of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus were (97.4±10.4). (92.6±8.4) and (95.2±9.7) scores, respectively; and those of patients with non-diabetes mellitus were (104.7±9.6), (102.5±8.5)and(102.7±8.9) scores, respectively, and P 〈 0.05-0.01 was set in intergroup comparison. The latent period of P300 wave at points Fz , Cz and Pz of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus was (370.8±41.8).(371.5±39.1)and (375.1±43.1) ms, respectively, and that of patients with non-diabetes mellitus was ( 332.1 ±28.3 ), (335.7 ±29.4)and (339.7 ±27.3) ms, respectively, and P 〈 0.01 was set in intergroup comparison; Wave amplitude of P300 of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus was (8.6±4.1),(8.6±4.0) and (7.7±4.0) μV, respectively and that of patients with non-diabetes mellitus was (11.9±4.1),(11.5±4.4) and (10.9±5.0) μV, respectively , and P 〈 0.05-0.01 was set in intergroup comparison; The level of AChE in blood and cerebrospinal fluid of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus was (235.61 ±50.34)and (17.89±4.46) μkat/L, respectively, which was significantly higher than that of patients with non-diabetes mellitus [(205.03±44.15)and (14.63±0.48) μkat /L, respectively], and P 〈 0.05-0.01 was set in the intergroup comparison. ② Correlation of FIQ value of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus with AChE of cerebrospinal fluid and P300 wave: The value of FIQ was significantly negatively correlated with the AChE activity of cerebrospinal fluid (r=-0.588 1, P 〈 0.01 ), significantly negatively correlated with the latent period at points Fz. C and Pz of P300 wave (r= -0.700 5, -0.689 4, -0.688 5, P 〈 0.01 ), and significantly positively correlated with the amplitude at points Fz . Cz and Pz of P300 wave(r= 0.607 4,0.616 1,0.592 0,P 〈 0.01 ). CONCLUSION: ① Cognitive impairment of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus might be related to the increase of activity of AChE in cerebrospinal fluid. ②Combined application of examination of P300 wave and evaluation of IQ is more useful in deciding the state of cognitive function of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.展开更多

Alkaline phosphatase was found to be increased up to 119.9% at the 6<sup>th</sup> hr of the toxin injection in comparison to control. This elevation may be due to cytolysis. Maximum increase i.e., 153.33% level of glutamate pyruvate transaminase (GPT) was found at 6 hrs of 40% of 24-h LD<sub>50</sub> treatment while it was found to be 151.1% at 6 hrs of 24 hr 80% of LD<sub>50</sub>, venom injection. A significant elevation was observed in LDH activity in serum, liver, and muscles, while the activity of AchE was decreased in serum, liver, and gastrocnemius muscles of albino mice after injecting the sub-lethal dose of Ropalidia marginata venom. This increase in the activity of LDH produces liver damage, massive disintegration and necrosis of hepatic cells. This elevation in LDH level led to a significant increase in the glucose catabolism and elevated oxidative stress in muscle and liver cells. It also displays insufficient oxygen supply and consequently leads to cell death. In experimental animals, venom toxin treatment decreased AchE level, and animals showed muscular paralysis. When mice were treated with 40% and 80% of 24-h LD<sub>50</sub> of purified venom caused a significant (p < 0.05) elevation in the level of ACP, GOT, GPT, and LDH while the reduction in ALP and AChE level. Present study will be useful in the development of prototypes for study of pharmacological and therapeutic effects of various venom toxins. For this purpose structure activity relationship of enzyme and venom toxin, its due interaction to various metabolic enzymes and receptors must be explored.展开更多

In the in vivo study,pregnant rats ingested ad libitum fluorinated drinking water (5, 15, 50 ppm F ) during their gestation and lactation. It was shown that the AChE activities of the SPM and peripheral RBCs in maternal rats exposed 5 ~ 50 ppm F for 60 days were elevated significantly by 30. 0 ~ 67. 6 % and 12. 5 ~ 31. 9 % in a dose-dependent manner, respectively. The AChE activities of their offspring 80 days after birth were also increaased (8. 7 ~ 28. 7 % for SPM and20. 6 ~ 32. 4 % for RBC). In contrast, the AChE activities of SPM in vitro were inhibited by 5. 0~ 50 .0 mmol F /L treatment in a time-and dose dependent manner. Analaysis with the Hanes plots suggested that the enzymesubstrate kinetics are consistent with a mixed type ofinhibition.展开更多

Alkaline phosphatase was found to be increased up to 119.9% at the 6<sup>th</sup> hr of the toxin injection in comparison to control. This elevation may be due to cytolysis. Maximum increase i.e., 153.33% level of glutamate pyruvate transaminase (GPT) was found at 6 hrs of 40% of 24-h LD<sub>50</sub> treatment while it was found to be 151.1% at 6 hrs of 24 hr 80% of LD<sub>50</sub>, venom injection. A significant elevation was observed in LDH activity in serum, liver, and muscles, while the activity of AchE was decreased in serum, liver, and gastrocnemius muscles of albino mice after injecting the sub-lethal dose of Ropalidia marginata venom. This increase in the activity of LDH produces liver damage, massive disintegration and necrosis of hepatic cells. This elevation in LDH level led to a significant increase in the glucose catabolism and elevated oxidative stress in muscle and liver cells. It also displays insufficient oxygen supply and consequently leads to cell death. In experimental animals, venom toxin treatment decreased AchE level, and animals showed muscular paralysis. When mice were treated with 40% and 80% of 24-h LD<sub>50</sub> of purified venom caused a significant (p < 0.05) elevation in the level of ACP, GOT, GPT, and LDH while the reduction in ALP and AChE level.
