Correlation research of serum substance P, CCK-8, and 5-HT values with depression levels in stroke survivors.
This study aimed to investigate the correlation of serum octapeptide cholecystokinin-8 (CCK-8), substance P (SP), and 5-hydroxytryptryptamine (5-HT) values with depression levels in patients with post-stroke depression (PSD). It also aimed to explore the potential approach for the early diagnosis of PSD.. A correlation research between patients' biochemical indicators and depression levels was performed among 70 stroke patients during hospitalization from June 2021 to February 2022. The 70 stroke patients were selected and divided into post-stroke depression and non-depression groups according to the Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD) score. The concentrations of CCK-8, SP, and 5-HT in both groups were measured, and the relationship between the values of CCK-8, SP, 5-HT and the depression levels was analyzed.. Among the 70 stroke survivors, 35 were in the depression group and 35 were in the non-depression group. Significant differences were observed in the concentration of CCK-8, SP, and 5-HT between the patients in the depression and non-depression group (p < 0.05). Accompanied by an increase in the depression level, the SP value gradually increased, but the CCK-8 and 5-HT values gradually decreased. Spearman correlation analysis indicated that the order of the correlation between CCK-8, 5-HT, SP, and the depression levels was CCK-8 > SP > 5-HT.. All the CCK-8, SP and 5-HT values were correlated with the depression levels in stroke survivors. Furthermore, the correlation between CCK-8, SP, and post-stroke depression levels was higher than that of 5-HT, suggesting that the early diagnosis of PSD may be reflected more precisely through the detection of CCK-8, and SP values, thus providing potential priority for biochemical detection in the diagnosis of PSD.

An investigation on the changes of serum CCK-8, substance P, and 5-HT in patients with post-stroke insomnia.
At present, the pathogenesis of post-stroke insomnia (PSI) is still inconclusive.. To explore the changes and significance of serum cholecystokinin-8 (CCK-8), substance P (SP), and 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) in patients with PSI.. Ninety-one patients with stroke were selected as the research subjects, and according to the score of the Athens Insomnia Scale (AIS), they were divided into the insomnia group and the non-insomnia group. The serum levels of CCK-8, SP, and 5-HT in the two groups were compared to explore their relationships with PSI.. Among the 91 patients, 56 were in the insomnia group and 35 were in the non-insomnia group, and the incidence of insomnia was 61.5%. There was no significant difference in the serum levels of CCK-8, SP, and 5-HT between the two groups (P= 0.696, 0.980, and 0.809, respectively). One-way analysis of variance showed that there was no significant correlation between the serum levels of CCK-8, SP, 5-HT, and the AIS score (P= 0.7393, 0.9581, and 0.5952, respectively).. The incidence of PSI was relatively high, but it could not be proved that CCK-8, SP, and 5-HT were involved in the pathogenesis of PSI. There might exist other neurotransmitters involved in the pathophysiological process of PSI, which should be further explored.

Administration of sonic hedgehog protein induces angiogenesis and has therapeutic effects after stroke in rats.
The Sonic hedgehog (Shh) signaling pathway is recapitulated in response to ischemic injury. Here, we investigated the clinical implications of Shh protein in the ischemic stroke and explored the underlying mechanism. Intracerebroventricular injection of Shh, Cyclopamine, or anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) was performed immediately after permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion (pMCAO) surgery and lasted for 7days (d). Phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) was used as control. Neurological deficits and infarct volume were examined 7d after pMCAO. Microvascular density with fluorescein-iso-thiocyanate (FITC) assay and double staining with CD31 and Ki-67 was measured at 7d. To observe in vitro angiogenesis, rat brain microvascular endothelial cells (RBMECs) were incubated under oxygen glucose deprivation (OGD) for 6h (h) and treated with Shh/anti-VEGF. We found that (1) Shh improved neurological scores and reduced infarct volume, which was blocked by Cyclopamine, (2) Shh improved the microvascular density and promoted angiogenesis and neuron survival in the ischemic boundary zone, (3) Shh enhanced VEGF expression and VEGF antibody could reverse angiogenic and protective effect of Shh in vivo and in vitro. These data demonstrate that the administration of Shh protein could protect brain from ischemic injury, in part by promoting angiogenic repair.

Sludge and stone formation in the gallbladder in bedridden elderly patients with cerebrovascular disease: influence of feeding method.
The incidence of gallbladder sludge or gallstone formation in bedridden patients with cerebrovascular disease (CVD) remains obscure. The aim of this study was to determine the incidence, relationship to feeding method, and mechanisms of gallbladder sludge and gallstone formation in elderly patients with CVD.. Using ultrasonography, we determined the development of gallbladder sludge and gallstone over a 12-month period, the area of the gallbladder, the gallbladder contractile response to cerulein, and fasting levels of plasma cholecystokinin (CCK) in 40 bedridden elderly patients with CVD. The patients were divided into three groups based on the feeding method: oral ingestion (OI), nasogastric feeding (NF), and total parenteral nutrition (TPN).. Gallbladder sludge and gallstone were not observed in any of the 14 OI patients, but occurred in 6 and 1 of the 11 NF patients, and in 14 and 3 of the 15 TPN patients, respectively. Fasting gallbladder areas were significantly larger in the TPN group than in the other two groups. The TPN group showed a marked decrease in cerulein-induced gallbladder contractility. Fasting plasma CCK levels were lower in the TPN group than in the OI group.. Our results indicate that elderly patients with CVD confined to bed over long periods are not necessarily at risk of gallbladder sludge or gallstone formation, and the development of these features may be associated with the feeding method. The predisposition of CVD patients on TPN to gallbladder disease is probably caused by failure of gallbladder contraction, resulting from insufficient secretion of CCK and impaired sensitivity of the gallbladder to CCK.
