LINGO-1，a Nogo receptor-interacting protein-1 rich in leucine repeat sequences and immunoglobulin structural domains，which is specifically expressed in neurological diseases. In recent years，more and more evidences indicate that LINGO-1 plays an important role in glial scar formation，cell death and inflammatory reaction. LINGO-1 inhibits oligodendrocyte activation，and prevents axon and myelin formation and functional recovery，and is therefore considered to be a negative regulator of neuronal survival，neurite extension and axon myelination. The change of LINGO-1 level is related to the occurrence and development of many neurological diseases. This article reviews the physiological function of LINGO-1 and summarizes the latest research progress of LINGO-1 in multiple sclerosis，spinal cord injury，neonatal brain injury and epilepsy，so as to explore new strategies for the treatment of neurological diseases.

Objective:To explore the early predictive value of umbilical cord blood S100β protein and lactate combined with amplitude integrated electroencephalogram（aEEG）in small for gestational age（SGA）preterm infants with brain injury.Methods:One hundred and six cases of SGA preterm infants were enrolled in this study in Neonatology Department of Inner Mongolia People's Hospital from January 2019 to December 2021. Umbilical cord blood serum S100β protein and lactate at birth of All SGA preterm infants were tested，and aEEG was monitored at 6h and 72 h after birth，corrected gestational age of 32 weeks and 37 weeks. According to the diagnostic criteria of brain injury in preterm infants，SGA preterm infants were divided into brain injury group（45 cases）and non-brain injury group（61 cases），and compared the differences of S100β protein，lactate and the designated time aEEG between the two groups.SGA preterm infants with brain injury were further divided into symmetrical group（28 cases）and non-symmetrical group（15 cases）. The differences of umbilical cord blood S100β protein and lactate level between the two groups were compared，and the diagnostic value in different types of SGA preterm infants with brain injury was also compared.Results:SGA preterm infants in the brain injury group had significantly higher levels of umbilical cord blood S100β protein［（0.826±0.218）μg/L vs（0.397±0.196）μg/L， t=8.316， P<0.05］and lactate［（8.5±1.3）mmol/L vs（3.8±0.9）mmol/L， t=3.281， P<0.05］than those in non-brain injury group.Symmetric SGA group had higher level of S100β protein than the asymmetric SGA group［（0.924±0.205）μg/L vs（0.438±0.196）μg/L， t=5.734， P<0.05］.But there was no statistically significant difference in lactate levels［（5.6±1.4）mmol/L vs（3.9±1.2）mmol/L， t=0.932， P>0.05］between symmetric SGA group and asymmetric SGA group. The abnormal rates of aEEG in brain injury group and non-brain injury group were respectively 100%（45/45）vs 22.95%（14/61）at 6 h after birth，95.56%（43/45）vs 16.39%（10/61）at 72 h after birth，62.22%（28/45）vs 6.56%（4/61）at 32 weeks of corrected gestational age，22.22%（10/45）vs 3.28%（2/61）at 37 weeks of corrected gestational age. The abnormal rate of brain injury group was higher than the non-brain injury group in the same nodal time，and the differences were statistically significant（ χ 2 value respectively 62.292，64.913，38.074，9.257，all P<0.05）. Conclusion:There were significant value in umbilical cord blood S100β protein，lactate level and aEEG monitoring in the early diagnosis in preterm infants SGA with brain injury. The combination of the three might be more helpful for the early diagnosis and timely treatment of brain injury in SGA preterm infants.
摘要
Vasoinhibitory vasovagal syncope（VVS-VI）in children is the most common type of responses in vasovagal syncope（VVS）and has a high incidence. VVS-VI is a recurrent disorder caused by a malfunctioning autonomic nervous system. VVS-VI can be caused by a variety of stimuli such as strong emotions，sudden changes in posture，hot and stuffy environments and prolonged standing. It was found that VVS-VI is a benign disease without organic lesions and is self-limiting and reversible，but VVS-VI children often suffer irreversible consequences due to secondary injuries. VVS-VI seriously affects the life and academic performance of children，endangers their physical and mental health，and causes anxiety among parents，so the number of studies on VVS-VI has increased in recent years. This article summarizes the progress of diagnostic research on VVS-VI in children，and provides a reference for related research.

BACKGROUND:Premature birth is a major global health problem associated with high mortality and morbidity.White matter injury is the most common brain injury in preterm infants.Salvia miltiorrhiza is a traditional herbal plant that is commonly used to treat cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases in Asian countries. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the therapeutic effect of Salvia miltiorrhiza on white matter injury in preterm infants. METHODS:Eighteen neonatal male Sprague-Dawley rats at 3-day gestational age were selected and randomized into normal group,white matter injury group,and Salvia miltiorrhiza group.Animal models of preterm white matter injury were established by permanent ligation of the right common carotid artery in the latter two groups.Rats in the Salvia miltiorrhiza group were given intraperitoneal injection of Salvia miltiorrhiza(5 mg/kg·d)for 7 consecutive days.Normal group and white matter injury group were given the same volume of PBS for intervention.On the 14th day after modeling,the rats were sacrificed.Brains were pathologically observed by hematoxylin-eosin staining under microscope,and the expression levels of myelin basic protein and CC1 in brain tissue were visualized using immunofluorescence.Furthermore,liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry was used to analyze possible pathways for the action of Salvia miltiorrhiza. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:In the white matter injury group,the structure of the corpus callosum was irregular and the cells appeared swollen and necrotic.In addition,induction of white matter injury resulted in significantly reduced myelin formation,with irregular and loosely arranged nerve fibers and significantly decreased myelin sheaths.Interestingly,white matter injury rats treated with Salvia miltiorrhiza had reduced cellular swelling,reduced lesions,and increased myelin sheaths.The expression of myelin basic protein was closely related to myelin formation,and CC1 was a marker of myelin oligodendrocytes.Salvia miltiorrhiza significantly up-regulated the expressions of myelin basic protein and CC1 in white matter injury rats(P＜0.000 1),indicating that Salvia miltiorrhiza alleviated white matter injury.Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry analysis showed that the therapeutic effect of Salvia miltiorrhiza in the rat model of white matter injury was closely related to the regulation of complement and coagulation cascades.To conclude,Salvia miltiorrhiza may be a potential therapeutic agent for treating preterm white matter injury.
摘要
The myelin sheath of the central nervous system(CNS)is a multilayer lipid membrane with oligodendrocyte membrane surrounding the axon.The development of myelin sheath in children follows the corresponding laws of time and space, and this process of myelination is considered to be related to children′s proper behavior and function.The myelin sheath development of CNS in childhood is a multi-step and extremely complex process, and the integrity of myelin sheath plays a crucial role in shaping CNS function.At present, it has been found that many neurological diseases in children, such as multiple sclerosis, transverse myelitis and pediatric optic neuritis are closely related to myelin sheath abnormality.Therefore, this paper reviews the progress of myelin sheath development and related diseases in childhood, so as to provide a basis for clinical diagnosis and treatment of myelin sheath abnormalities.

Objective To explore the protective effect of miconazole on white matter damage (WMD) in neonatal rats. Methods Three-day-old neonatal SD rats were randomly divided into sham group, WMD model group, 10 mg/(kg·d) miconazole group and 40 mg/(kg·d) miconazole group with 15 rats each. Rats in WMD model group were subjected to the ligation of right carotid artery, and then kept in a chamber with 6% oxygen and 94% nitrogen for 80 min to establish the white matter damage model. The rats in miconazole group were intraperitoneally injected with different doses (10 and 40mg/kg) of miconazole, dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), for five consecutive days, and rats in WMD model group were injected with the same volume of DMSO. Myelin basic protein (MBP) of white matter was detected by immunofluorescence staining and western blot. Myelin sheaths of corpus callosum were observed by transmission electron microscopy. Weight changes of rats were compared among groups. Results Immunofluorescence staining and western blot showed that, after treatment with miconazole, the MBP expression level of corpus callosum was higher than in WMD model group (P<0.05). In WMD model group, the myelin sheath of corpus callosum had loose structure and a large number of small vacuoles with decreased thickness of myelin sheath. After treatment with miconazole, myelinolysis induced by anoxia and ischemia could be improved significantly. The increase in weight of rats in WMD model group was significantly less than that in sham group. And after miconazole treatment, the rate of weight gain of rats was increased. Conclusion Miconazole can significantly reduce the brain white matter damage induced by anoxia and ischemia through promoting myelination, and then improves the growth and development in rats.
