Hearts were harvested at post-operative two weeks and four weeks and CAV was detected by immunohitochemical technique and in situ hybridization technique.Results iNOSmRNA group had no CAV develpment and synthetizing vast NO.Conclusion Expression of iNOSmRNA can prevent CAV development.展开更多

The gene expression of c fos, ppENK and iNOS in the spinal cord was detected by using in situ hybridization and RNA dot blot techniques. The iNOS activity was detected by using histochemistry and protein dot blot. The dot blot signals were scanned for statistical analysis. The results showed that the hybridization signals appeared bluish violet color. The c fos signals were localized in the laminae I-II and V-VII, the ppEMK weak signals localized in the superficial lamina and the iNOS signals localized in the cytoplasm of astrocytes of the mouse spinal cord. The pain threshold and all of the dot blot signals were enhanced in the acupuncture group when compared to that in the control group, P<0.05. In the acupuncture group, the intensity of expression of c fosmRNA, ppENKmRNA, iNOSmRNA and iNOS activity was positively correlated with analgesia effect respectively, P<0.05-0.01. The enhanced expression of iNOSmRNA and iNOS suggests that the spinal glia may play a more active role in synaptic function to cause analgesia induced by acupuncture stimulation. Besides, there was a positive correlation in alteration between spinal c fosmRNA and ppENK or c fosmRNA and iNOSmRNA, suggesting that c fos may be involved in ppENKmRNA transcription and c fos and iNOS may have common transactivators.展开更多
