ObjectiveDepression is a common mental illness with a profound impact on physical health. Depression has been associated with a higher risk of bacterial infection; however, whether this relationship is causal and how depression affects infection remains unclear. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the effects of depressive phenotype in infected mice by constructing a chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) model. MethodsMice were induced with CUMS for 4 weeks. The depressive phenotype was evaluated using behavioral tests. Subsequently, the mice were intraperitoneally injected with Klebsiella pneumoniae to establish bacterial infection. Serum and abdominal tissues were collected 48 h after infection. Hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining was used to observe the pathological changes in the tissues, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to measure the levels of inflammatory factors. In addition, the fecal samples collected before infection were analyzed for 16S rDNA gene of gut microbiota, and the expression levels of NF-κB/NLRP3 signaling pathway in colon tissues of uninfected mice were detected. ResultsBehavioral tests showed that compared with the control mice, CUMS mice had significantly lower body weight (P<0.000 1, t=5.426), lower sucrose preference rate (P<0.001, t=4.937), increased swimming stationary time (P<0.001, t=16.37), and decreased time spent in the central area of the open field (P<0.01, t=3.575). Survival analysis showed that compared with the control mice, the survival rate of CUMS mice significantly decreased after infection (P<0.05). Additionally, histochemical staining showed that tissue damage in the liver (P<0.05, t=4.025), kidney (P<0.05, t=2.828), and mesentery (P<0.01, t=5.367) significantly increased. Furthermore, ELISA results showed that the levels of the inflammatory cytokines IL-6 (P<0.01, t=3.365), IL-1β (P<0.01, t=4.061), TNF-α (P<0.01, t=4.460) and LPS (P<0.000 1, t=27.24) were elevated. The difference was statistically significant. According to 16S rDNA sequencing, CUMS-induced changes in the intestinal bacterial community structure of mice, making them significantly different from the control mice. Compared with the control mice, the expression levels of NF-κB (P<0.01, t=6.825) and NLRP3 (P<0.001, t=9.561) were upregulated in CUMS mice. ConclusionThe CUMS model was successfully constructed and CUMS mice developed more severe bacterial infection. Gut microbiota was dysregulated and the expression of NF-κB/NLRP3 signaling pathway was up-regulated in CUMS mice, which was related to the susceptibility to bacterial infection.

Objective:To study the intervention effect of ganoderma triterpenoids combined with exogenous monosialotetrahexosyl ganglioside(GM1) on cognitive dysfunction and synaptic ultrastructure of hippocampal neurons in rats with epilepsy caused by pentylenetetrazol(PTZ).Methods:A total of 40 Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into blank control group, epileptic model group, ganoderma triterpenoids group, GM1 group and GM1 combined with ganoderma triterpenoids group according to the random number table method( n=8 in each group). The rats were intraperitoneally injected with PTZ subconvulsant dose (35 mg·kg -1·d -1) once a day for 28 days to replicate the models of chronic epilepsy. And the rats in different medication groups were given corresponding administration based on daily intraperitoneal injection of PTZ(GM1: intraperitoneal injection of 30 mg·kg -1·d -1, ganoderma triterpenoids: gavage 1 000 mg·kg -1·d -1). Morris water maze was used to test the spatial exploration and learning and memory ability of epileptic rats.Transmission electron microscopy was used to observe the ultrastructure of hippocampal neurons in epileptic rats.Immunofluorescence staining was used to observe expression levels of cofilin and SYN protein in hippocampus CA1 of rats. In addition, Western blot was used to detect the expression levels of cofilin, p-cofilin and synaptophysin(SYN) protein in hippocampus of rats. SPSS 17.0 software was used for statistical analysis. Repeated one-way ANOVA was used for comparing among groups, LSD test was used for pairwise comparisons. Results:Morris water maze results showed that there were statistically significant differences in escape latency, times of crossing the platform and time spent in the target quadrant among the groups( F=5.259, 8.240, 5.961, all P<0.05). Compared with the epilepsy model group, the escape latencies((20.31±7.39) s, (21.81±6.05) s, (17.66±4.76) s) of the ganoderma triterpenoids group, GM1 group and GM1 combined with ganoderma triterpenoids group were shorter (all P<0.05), the numbers of crossing the platform ((4.63±1.41) times, (4.50±1.93) times, (5.50±1.77) times) were more (all P<0.05), the residence time in target quadrant ((31.91±5.00) s, (30.49±5.72) s, (35.70±5.34) s) were longer (all P<0.05). And the most obvious change was found in the GM1 combined with ganoderma triterpenoids group ( P<0.01). The results of transmission electron microscope showed that there were significant differences in the numbers of hippocampal neurons synapses, the synaptic gap, the density of postsynaptic membrane and length of active area of postsynaptic membrane among the groups( F=3.693, 7.201, 5.012, 4.033, all P<0.05). Compared with the epilepsy model group, the numbers of synapses ((8.00±1.79), (7.83±1.84), (8.50±1.87)) in the ganoderma triterpenoids group, GM1 group and GM1 combined with ganoderma triterpenoids group were all more (all P<0.05), synaptic gap ((33.83±3.81)nm, (32.43±4.14)nm, (30.23±3.08)nm)were narrower, and the postsynaptic dense substances ((57.50±6.03)nm, (58.10±2.40)nm, (60.73±3.81)nm) were all thicker (all P<0.05). The length of active region of postsynaptic membrane ((271.66±11.80) nm, (279.06±13.58) nm) in ganoderma triterpenoid group and GM1 combined with ganoderma triterpenoids group were longer than that in epilepsy model group (both P<0.05). Immunofluorescence results showed that the average fluorescence intensity of cofilin in the epilepsy model group was higher than that in the blank control group, and the average fluorescence intensity of SYN was lower than that in the blank control group (both P<0.05). The average fluorescence intensity of cofilin in GM1 group and GM1 combined with ganoderma triterpenoids group were lower than that in epilepsy model group (both P<0.05), and the average fluorescence intensity of SYN in ganoderma lucidum triterpenoids combined with GM1 group was higher than that in epilepsy model group ( P<0.05). Western blot showed that the expression levels of cofilin protein in the epilepsy model group was higher than that in the blank control group ((1.454±0.080), (1.092±0.099), P<0.05), and the expression of p-cofilin and SYN were lower than those in the blank control group ((1.103±0.120) vs (1.420±0.934), (1.650±0.062) vs (1.958±0.062), both P<0.05). The expression of cofilin protein ((1.227±0.071), (1.262±0.078), (1.162±0.129), P<0.05) in ganoderma triterpenoids group, GM1 group and GM1 combined with ganoderma triterpenoids group were lower than that in epilepsy model group, and the expression levels of p-cofilin(1.357±0.199) and SYN protein(1.873±0.010) in ganoderma triterpenoids combined with GM1 group were higher than that in epilepsy model group (both P<0.05). Compared with ganoderma lucidum triterpenoids group and GM1 group, there was no significant difference in each index of GM1 combined with ganoderma triterpenoids group (all P>0.05). Conclusion:GM1 combined with ganoderma triterpenoids may promote the synaptic plasticity of neurons, improve the learning and memory ability of epileptic rats.Combination medication is better than single medication in some observed indicators.

Objective To investigate the effect of maternal deprivation (MD) on neurobehavior and PP1Cγgene expression in hippocampus. Methods Male pups were randomly divided into MD group(thirty-five)and control group(twenty-four). From PND 1 to PND 21 ,pups in the MD groups underwent daily maternal deprivation for 3 h ( Postnatal day). Neurobehavior was observed to investigate neurodevelopment, Morris water maze was used to measure spatial learning and memory,and Real-Time quantitative PCR was employed to analyze PP1Cγ gene expression. Results Several significant deficiencies were observed in bodyweight and grasping reflex while a great enhancement in hot-plate test in rat pups suffering from MD( (26.23 ± 2.81 )g vs. (30. 38 ± 3.85 )g;( 19.37 ± 11.89) s vs. (22.39 ± 17.62 ) s; (4.36 ± 1.76 ) s vs. ( 5.26 ± 2.55 ) s; P < 0. 05 ), but deficiencies in neurological reflexes were subtle ( ( 0.83 ±- 0.30 ) s vs. ( 0. 83 ± 0. 34 ) s; ( 3.68 ± 1.63 ) s vs. ( 5.61 ± 3. 01 ) s;( 3.00 ± 0.00 ) vs. ( 3.00 ± 0. 00); P > 0. 05 ). MD had a subtle influence on spatial learning and memory (P >0.05). Meanwhile,MD could lead to PP1Cγ expression down-regulation on PND 22 ( (2.19 ±0.62) vs. (3.52 ±0.86), P<0. 05)which was in line with early neurobehavior results. No difference was found compared with MD group and control group on PND60 ( ( 1.73 ± 0. 78 ) vs. ( 1.33 ± 0. 34); P > 0.05 ). However, there was the up-regulation of PP1Cγexpression on PND 90 ( (2.85 ± 0. 34) vs. ( 1.34 ± 0.93 ); P < 0.05 ). Conclusion MD alters early neurobehavior and hippocampal PP1Cγgene expression in the Wistar rats,but has a subtle effect on learning and memory. At the same time,MD can make PP1Cγexpression in the hippocampus varying with the age.
