Abstract

Diffuse axonal injury(DAI) is a common form of traumatic brain injury and thought to be a major contributor to cognitive dysfunction. Physical activity has been shown to beneficial effects on physical health and influences in hippocampus which is an important location for memory and learning. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of motor training on motor performance and axonal regeneration in hippocampus through the immunoreactivity of GAP-43 after diffuse axonal injury in the rats. The experimental groups were applied motor training(beam-walking, rotarod, and Morris water maze) but control groups were not. The time performing the motor tasks and GAP-43 immunohistochemistry were used for the result of axonal recovery. There were meaningful differences between experimental groups and control groups on motor performance and GAP-43 immunohistochemistry. The control groups showed increasing tendency with the lapse of time, but experimental groups showed higher. Therefore, Motor training after DAI improve motor outcomes which are associated with dynamically altered immunoreactivity of GAP-43 in axonal injury regions, particularly hippocampus, and that is related with axonal regeneration.

미만성 축삭손상(diffuse axonal injury)은 외상성 뇌손상의 일반적인 형태이며, 인지 장애의 주요 원인으로 생각되어 진다. 흔들린 아기 증후군(shaken baby syndrome)과 같이 뇌에 전단력이 심하게 가해졌을 때도 신체 장애 뿐만 아니라 인지 장애가 특징적으로 나타난다. 신체 활동은 건강 증진과 더불어 기억 및 학습과 관련된 해마의 기능 향상에도 영향을 미친다. 본 연구의 목적은 흰쥐를 대상으로 미만성 축삭 손상을 일으킨 후 반복적인 운동 훈련을 통해 운동 수행력을 관찰하고 해마에서 GAP-43의 발현을 통해 축삭 재생의 변화를 관찰하는 것이었다. 실험동물은 운동 훈련을 적용시키는 실험군과 대조군으로 구분하였고, 각각의 군을 다시 1일, 7일 및 14일군으로 구분하였다. 그 결과, 운동 훈련을 적용시킨 실험군이 대조군보다 운동 수행력의 향상이 더 유의했으며, 해마에서 GAP-43의 발현도 같은 양상을 나타냈다. 이러한 차이는 7일군과 14일군보다 1일군과 7일군 사이에 더 크게 나타났다. 그러므로 미만성 축삭손상 후 운동 훈련은 운동 수행력의 향상에 영향을 미치며, 인지와 관련된 해마의 구조적 변화도 야기 시키는 것으로 생각된다.
