Caspase3和iNOS在人挫伤脑组织中的时序性表达

目的研究人脑挫伤后不同时间半胱氨酸天冬氨酸蛋白酶3（caspase3）和诱导型一氧化氮合酶（inducible nitric oxide synthase,iNOS）表达的变化,为法医实践中脑损伤时间的推断提供依据。方法选择30例因颅脑损伤死亡案例为损伤组,5例非颅脑损伤急死的案例为对照组,应用免疫组织化学和图像分析技术,分别于死亡后2h、4～8h、10～14h、1～2d、3～5d及8～11d检测脑组织标本中caspase3和iNOS的变化规律。结果经统计学分析：（1）caspase3阳性细胞表达在伤后2h以内组开始升高,与对照组相比差异有统计学意义（P〈0.05）,1～2d组表达强度增高,3～5d组仍见高表达（P〈0.05）,以后逐渐下降。（2）iNOS阳性细胞表达在2h以内组与对照组比较差异无统计学意义（P〉0.05）,伤后4～8h开始升高（P〈0.05）,1～2d组表达强度最高,以后逐渐下降,伤后8～11d仍有弱表达（P〈0.05）。结论caspase3和iNOS的表达可能成为实际检案中脑损伤时间推断的有效依据。

Time-order Expression of Caspase 3 and iNOS in Contused Human Brain Tissue

Objective To investigate the expression of caspase 3 and iNOS in different intervals and to provide evidence for estimation of injury intervals after brain contusion in human. Methods Thirty cases died of serious brain injury were included into the injury groups and 5 cases died of non-brain injury were served as control group. To analyze the changes of caspase 3 and iNOS expression in brain samples at different intervals(2 h, 4-8 h, 10-14 h, 1-2 d, 3-5 d, 8-11 d) by immunohistochemistry and auto-image anal...
