The effect of propofol on cell apoptosis and expression of Bcl-2 and caspase-3 protein of focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion in the rats

Objective To investgate the effects of propofol on cell apoptosis of focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury in the rat model of reversible middle cerebral artery occlusion(MCAO).Methods Male SD rats were used to undergo 2 h MCAO and 2 h reperfusion 2.Brain cell apopotosis and expression of bcl-2 protein was measured by flow cytometry(FCM),expression of caspase-3 protein was observed by immunohistochemical method;brain cell structure was examined under light microscope.Results Propofol could significantly inhibit the apoptosis of brain cell after focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion.Compared to sham group,caspase-3 protein positive-staining cells were remarkably increased in control group,while propofol group were remarkably decreased.Pretreatment of animals with propofol before reperfusion significantly increased the Fluorescent index of Blc-2.Conclusion The increased expression of Caspase-3 may be an important mechanism for brain cell apoptosis after brain ischemia-reperfusion.Propofol possesses the antiapoptotic effects which may be related to the reduction of the expreesion of caspase-3 and increasing the expression of Bcl-2 protein.

Objective To investgate the effects of propofol on cell apoptosis of focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury in the rat model of reversible middle cerebral artery occlusion （MCAO）. Methods Male SD rats were used to undergo 2 h MCAO and 2 h reperfusion 2. Brain cell apopotosis and expression of bcl-2 protein was measured by flow eytometry （FCM）, expression of easpase-3 protein was observed by immunohistochemieal method; brain cell structure was examined under light microscope. Results Propofol could significantly inhibit the apoptosis of brain cell after focal cerebral ischemia -reperfusion. Compared to sham group, caspase-3 protein positive-staining cells were remarkably increased in control group, while propofol group were remarkably decreased. Pretreatment of animals with propofol before reperfusion significantly increased the Fluorescent index of Blc-2 . Condusion The increased expression of Caspase-3 may be an important mechanism for brain cell apoptosis after brain ischemia-reperfusion. Propofol possesses the antiapoptotic effects which may be related to the reduction of the expreesion of caspase-3 and increasing the expression of Bel-2 protein .
