摘要
Objective Cerebral ischemia/reperfusion(I/R)is a potential factor for lethal injury,and currently lacks effective remedies.Bauhinia championii extracts(BCEs)have been reported to exhibit anti-oxidative and anti-hypoxia properties.The current work aimed to study whether BCE could alleviate neuronal injury caused by I/R.Methods To investigate the protective effects of BCE,oxygen-glucose deprivation/reperfusion(OGD/R)was applied to the HT22 cell line in vitro and to a cerebral I/R mouse model in vivo.Results Under OGD/R,the survival of HT22 cells was significantly prolonged after treatment with BCE.In vivo,BCE significantly reduced the infarct area and decreased neuronal apoptosis caused by I/R.It was further found that OGD/R could trigger endoplasmic reticulum(ER)stress and induce ER stress-mediated neuronal apoptosis in vivo and in vitro,while BCE could effectively alleviate ER stress and neuronal apoptosis.Conclusion These results suggested that BCE exhibits neuroprotective effects by reducing ER stress-mediated apoptosis after cerebral I/R injury.BCE may therefore be an effective therapeutic regimen against cerebral I/R damage.
