Methods:82 patients with craniocerebral trauma who were treated in our hospital between January 2015 and February 2017 were collected as observation group, and 58 normal subjects who received internal hemorrhoids surgery under lumbar anesthesia in our hospital during the same period were collected as control group. Fluorescence quantitative PCR method was used to detect Nogo-A gene expression in serum and cerebrospinal fluid of both groups, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to determine serum levels of nerve injury indexes and inflammatory factors in two groups. Pearson test was used to assess the relationship of Nogo-A gene expression in serum and cerebrospinal fluid with disease severity in patients with craniocerebral trauma.Results: Nogo-A mRNA expression in the serum and cerebrospinal fluid of observation group were higher than those of the control group;serum IGF-Ⅱ level was lower than that of control group while NSE, MBP and S100B levels were higher than those of control group;serum HSP-70, PCT, IL-1β, IL-6 and CRP levels were higher than those of control group. Pearson test showed that Nogo-A gene expression in serum and cerebrospinal fluid of patients with craniocerebral trauma were directly correlated with the nerve injury degree and inflammatory factor levels.Conclusions: Nogo-A gene is highly expressed in patients with craniocerebral trauma, and its expression is directly correlated with the nerve injury and systemic inflammatory response.展开更多

Hyperbaric oxygen(HBO) treatment has long been widely used as an adjunctive therapy for treating traumatic brain injury. UC-MSC transplantation combined with HBO treatment is expected to yield better therapeutic effects on traumatic brain injury. In this study, we established rat models of severe traumatic brain injury by pressurized fluid(2.5–3.0 atm impact force). The injured rats were then administered UC-MSC transplantation via the tail vein in combination with HBO treatment. Compared with monotherapy, aquaporin 4 expression decreased in the injured rat brain, but growth-associated protein-43 expression, calaxon-like structures, and CM-Dil-positive cell number increased. Following combination therapy, however, rat cognitive and neurological function significantly improved. UC-MSC transplantation combined with HBO therapyfor repair of traumatic brain injury shows better therapeutic effects than monotherapy and significantly promotes recovery of neurological functions.展开更多
