Abstract:

This study was an experimental, controlled, animal study. This study was to determine the changes of molecular pathology in spinal cord decompression sickness (SC-DCS) based on a rabbit model of SC-DCS with the aid of an all-gene expression profile chip. Qingdao, Shandong Province, China. A gene expression profile chip containing 43 803 genes was used to compare the gene expressions in the spinal cords of four male New Zealand white rabbits in the SC-DCS and control groups, respectively. Selected differentially expressed genes were identified with quantitative real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and immunohistochemistry.
