The Second Department of Orthopaedics, the Second Hospital Affiliated to Medical College of Jiaotong University of Xi 'an, Xi'an 710004, Shaanxi, China.
Objective: To observe the mRNA expression of p75NTR (p75 neurotrophin receptor) and the amount of neuronal cells apoptosis in lumbar-sacral spinal cord at different time points after the acute cauda equina compression in rats and to explore their correlation.
Methods: Sixty adult female Sprague Dawley(SD) rats were randomly divided into the normal control group and the compression groups. The acute cauda equine compression model was established as placing a silicon gel rubber at L(3,4) level of the vertebral canal which represented about 70% to 80% compression to the cross section.
