Abstract
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) initiates a series of neurochemical and signaling changes that could eventually lead to neuronal apoptosis. Recent studies indicated that mature neurons cell cycle re-enter played a crucial role in neuronal apoptosis. In this study, we identified that the chaperonin containing TCP-1, subunit 8 (CCT8), as a member of class II chaperonins, was significantly upregulated following TBI. Moreover, double immunofluorescence staining revealed that CCT8 was co-expressed with neuronal nuclei (NeuN). Besides, co-localization of CCT8/active caspase 3 was detected in NeuN. We also examined the expression profiles of active caspase 3 whose changes were correlated with the expression of CCT8. All our findings suggested that CCT8 might be involved in the pathophysiology of brain after TBI.Entities:
