RESUMO
PURPOSE: To conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis of studies testing the effect of exercise in Kainic-acid (KA) induced status-epilepticus (SE) and to quantify the efficacy of exercise strategies in the prognosis of SE and co-morbidities. METHODS: Two authors searched online databases (Pubmed and Web of Science) independently for studies testing the efficacy of exercise programs in KA-induced SE models. Reviewers autonomously extracted data on models used, exercise interventions and prognosis in all reported outcomes (behavioral, histological, biochemical and cognitive outcomes). All studies were summarized and relevant outcomes' data were pooled by means of a meta-analysis. RESULTS: Among 14 selected studies; Quantitative analysis of studies with pre-SE exercise interventions showed significant reduction in mortality rate among 76 animals of four studies (RR = 0.57, [95% CI 0.34, 0.95], p = 0.03, I2 = 57%) and seizure rating score among three studies (n = 56) with MD = - 1.04, [95% CI - 2.07, - 0.00], p = 0.05, I2 = 71%. Three studies (n = 62) presented with improved anti-oxidant enzymes' profile (SMD = 0.75, [95% CI 0.55, 2.31], p = 0.0008, I2 = 44%) as a result of exercise intervention. Same intervention failed to show any significant measure for BDNF level and neuroprotection assessed through neuronal number in different brain areas with MD = - 1.22, [95% CI - 136.66, 134.22], p = 0.99, I2 = 0% and SMD = - 0.05, [95% CI - 0.62, 0.52], p = 0.86, I2 = 61% respectively. Qualitative review concluded in the reduction of median seizure score, depression and anxiety-like behaviors with improved cognitive performances in pre-SE exercised animals while improved memory and learning capabilities with increased neurogenesis were observed in post-SE exercised models. CONCLUSIONS: Exercise before SE reduces behavioral seizures and oxidative stress with improvements in cognitive abilities. Post-SE exercise enhances learning and memory with neurogenesis in KA models. More extensive research on morphological and biochemical profiles is needed to explore underlying mechanisms.

Increased number of newly-born neurons produced at latent stage after status epilepticus (SE) contribute to aberrant rewiring of hippocampus and are hypothesized to promote epileptogenesis. Although physical training (PT) was reported to cause further increase in neurogenesis after SE, how PT affect their integration pattern is still elusive, whether they integrate into normal circuits or increase aberrant integrations is yet to be determined. To understand this basic mechanism by which PT effects SE and to elaborate the possible role of neuronal integrations in prognosis of SE, we evaluated the effect of 4 weeks of treadmill PT in adult male mice after pilocarpine-induced SE on behavioral and aberrant integrations' parameters. Changes in BDNF gene methylation and its protein level in hippocampus was also measured at latent stage (2-weeks) to explore underlying pathways involved in increasing neurogenesis. Our results demonstrated that although PT increased proliferation and maturation of neurons in dentate gyrus, they showed reduced aberrant integrations into hippocampal circuitry assessed through a decrease in the number of ectopic granular cells, hilar basal dendrites and mossy fiber sprouting as compared to non-exercised SE mice. While SE decreased the percentage methylation of specific CpGs of BDNF gene's promoter, PT did not yield any significant difference in methylation of BDNF CpGs as compared to non-exercised SE mice. In conclusion, PT increases hippocampal neurogenesis through increasing BDNF levels by some pathways other than demethylating BDNF CpGs and causes post SE newly-born neurons to integrate into normal circuits thus resulting in decreased spontaneous recurrent seizures and enhanced spatial memory.

PURPOSE: To conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis of studies testing exercise in animal models of pilocarpine induced status epilepticus (SE) and to compare the efficacy of different training strategies used in those studies. METHODS: We searched 2 online databases (Pubmed and Web of Science) for studies analyzing the efficacy of different trainings in pilocarpine-induced SE models. Training was categorized into forced physical training (PT), voluntary PT and resistance PT. Two reviewers independently extracted data on study quality, behavioral seizures, and histological, chemical and cognitive outcomes. Data were pooled by means of a meta-analysis. RESULTS: Among 17 selected studies; 174 animals from 8 studies with 10 comparison groups showed that exercise intervention after induction of SE significantly decreased spontaneous recurrent seizures with [mean difference (MD)=-1.80, 95% confidence interval (CI): -3.22, -0.37, p=0.02] and 60 animals showed statistically significant decrease in latency in Morris water maze (standardized mean difference (SMD)=-2.57, 95% CI: -4.06, -1.08, p=0.0007). Although not statistically significant, still a remarkable increase in number of CA1 neurons and hippocampal BDNF level (MD=2.27, [95% CI: -1.20, 5.73], p=0.19, SMD=1.07, [95% CI: -0.36, 2.51], p=0.14 respectively) and a decrease in mossy fibers sprouting (SMD=-1.03, [95% CI: -3.06, 1.00], p=0.32) were observed. PT interventions in 72 animals before induction of SE showed favorable increase in latency to develop SE (MD=8.34, [95% CI: -3.10, 19.78], p=0.15) but no remarkable improvements in latency for the first motor sign and motor signs intensity. CONCLUSIONS: PT after SE reduces the recurrent seizures and improves the morphological, biochemical and cognitive profiles of pilocarpine epileptic models. Resistance PT was identified as particularly effective in reducing behavioral seizures. The efficacy of training was also dependent upon duration.

Elevated respiratory muscle work is encountered during strenuous exercise, acute and chronic respiratory disorders, and during inspiratory pressure threshold loading (ITL). ITL can induce respiratory muscle damage, evidenced by increases in fast and slow skeletal troponin-I (sTnI). However, other blood markers of muscle damage have not been measured. We investigated respiratory muscle damage following ITL using a skeletal muscle damage biomarkers panel. Seven healthy men (33 ± 2 yr) undertook 60 min of ITL at a resistance equivalent to â¼0% (Sham ITL) and 70% of their maximal inspiratory pressure 2 wk apart. Serum was collected before and at 1, 24, and 48 h after each ITL session. Creatine kinase muscle-type (CKM), myoglobin, fatty acid-binding protein-3 (FABP3), myosin light chain-3, and fast and slow sTnI were measured. Two-way ANOVA revealed time × load interaction effects (P < 0.05) for CKM, slow and fast sTnI. All of these were higher for 70% compared with Sham ITL. CKM was higher at 1 and 24 h, fast sTnI at 1 h, whereas slow sTnI was higher at 48 h. There were main effects of time (P < 0.01) for FABP3 and myoglobin, but no time × load interaction effects. Hence, CKM and fast sTnI could be used to assess respiratory muscle damage immediately (1 h), whereas CKM and slow sTnI could be used to assess respiratory muscle damage 24 and 48 h following conditions that elevate inspiratory muscle work. The specificity of these markers for different time points needs further exploration in other protocols that cause elevated inspiratory muscle work.NEW & NOTEWORTHY We investigated inspiratory pressure threshold loading-induced respiratory muscle damage using a skeletal muscle damage biomarkers panel. Our investigation showed that creatine kinase muscle-type, and fast skeletal troponin I could be used to assess respiratory muscle damage immediately (1 h), whereas creatine kinase muscle-type, and slow skeletal troponin I could be used to assess respiratory muscle damage 24 and 48 h following conditions that cause elevated inspiratory muscle work.

Studies on rodents and nonhuman primates suggest that exposure to anesthetics, particularly in the young brain, is associated with neuronal apoptosis as well as hippocampaldependent cognitive dysfunction. Disruption of the development of dentate gyrus may play an important role in anestheticsinduced neurotoxicity. However, the anesthetics triggered molecular events in the dentate gyrus of the developing brain are poorly understood. By integrating two independent data sets obtained from miRNAseq and mRNAseq respectively, this study aims to profile the network of miRNA and potential target genes, as well as relevant events occurring in the dentate gyrus of isoflurane exposed 7dayold mice. We found that a single four hours exposure to isoflurane yielded 1059 pairs of differently expressed miRNAs/target genes in the dentate gyrus. Gene ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes enrichment analysis further indicates that dysregulated miRNAs/target genes have farreaching effects on the cellular pathophysiological events, such as cell apoptosis, axon development, and synaptic transmission. Our results would greatly broaden our functional understanding of the role of miRNA/target gene in the context of anestheticsinduced neurotoxicity.

The effectiveness of pectin coatings enriched with clove essential oil (CEO), as new edible coatings were investigated to preserve bream (Megalobrama ambycephala) fillets during refrigeration over a period of 15â¯days. All samples were analyzed for physicochemical (pH, PV, TBA and TVB-N), microbiological (Total viable count, Psychrophilic bacteria, Lactic acid bacteria, Enterobacteriaceae, Pseudomonas spp., H2S producing bacteria) and organoleptic attributes. The results revealed that the CEO incorporation reduced the extent of lipid oxidation, as judged by PV, TBA and TVB-N, thus extending the shelf life of bream fillets by at least 15â¯days. Moreover, the application of pectin coatings with CEO improved the weight loss, water holding capacity, textural and color attributes of the bream samples significantly compared to untreated sample. Pectin coating along with CEO was effective in inhibiting bacterial growth especially in gram-negative bacteria, while the growth of lactic acid bacteria remained constant for most of the storage period. The effect on the microorganisms during storage was in accordance with biochemical indexes of the quality, representing the viability of these coatings for bream preservation. Thus, the coatings developed in present study could inhibit the development of lipid oxidation during cold storage, representing an option as a seafood preservative.

The increasing demand for bio-based materials to be used in food packaging has stimulated the development of novel, environmentally-friendly edible films. Antimicrobial films were developed by incorporating different levels of clove bud essential oil (0.5%, 1.0%, and 1.5%) into the citrus pectin in order to modify the functional properties of the films. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), differential scanning calorimetry analysis (DSC) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) were performed, together with the determination of physical, optical, mechanical, antioxidant and antimicrobial properties of pectin emulsified films. The inclusion of oil significantly enhanced the water barrier properties of the films. Addition of oil leads to more opaque films with relatively heterogeneous microstructure, resulting in an increase in film opacity. The composite films were more resistant to breakage and more flexible than the control films. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) demonstrated that films incorporating CEO exhibited improved heat stability with slightly higher degradation temperature, compared with control films. The inhibitory effect of pectin films with CEO was also evaluated on three common foodborne bacteria. These results revealed that clove oil has a good potential to be incorporated into citrus pectin to make antimicrobial edible films or coatings for various food applications.
