摘要
In order to investigate the role of Toll-like receptor 4 （TLR4） in cerebrocardiac syndrome （CCS）, the partial cerebral ischemia/reperfusion （I/R） models in mice with different TLR4 genotypes were established in the present study. TLR4 wild-type （C3H/HeN） and mutant （C3H/HeJ） mice of 6-8 weeks of age were divided into 4 groups at random： C3H/HeN sham group （n=10）, C3H/HeJ sham group （n=10）, C3H/HeN model group （n=10） and C3H/HeJ model group （n=10）. Partial cerebral I/R was caused by the middle cerebral artery occlusion （MCAO） to duplicate CCS models in mice. After the operation, the electrocardiogram （ECG）, the level of tumor necrosis factor-alpha （TNF-c0 in myocardial tissue and the cardiac pathological changes were observed in each group. It was shown that the brain infarct volume in C3H/HeN model group was larger than that in C3H/HeJ model group （P〈0.01）. The ST segment change and T wave inversion occurred frequently in model groups. Moreover, the TNF-ct level in C3H/HeN model group was higher than that in C3H/HeJ model group （P〈0.01）. The myocar- dial injury was aggravated in C3H/HeN group as compared with C3H/HeJ group. It was concluded that TLR4 was implicated in the development of CCS.
