In the present study, we performed cerebral ischemic pre- conditioning in rats by simulating a transient ischemic attack twice （each a 20-minute occlusion of the middle cerebral artery） before inducing focal cerebral infarction （2 hour occlusion-reper- fusion in the same artery）. We also explored the mechanism underlying the neuroprotective effect of ischemic preconditioning. Seven days after ocdusion-reperfusion, tetrazolium chloride staining and immunohistochemistry revealed that the infarct volume was significantly smaller in the group that underwent preconditioning than in the model group. Furthermore, vascular endothelial growth factor immunoreactivity was considerably greater in the hippocampal CA3 region of preconditioned rats than model rats. Our results suggest that the protective effects of ischemic preconditioning on focal cerebral infarction are associated with upregulation of vascu- lar endothelial growth factor.展开更多
目的:研究远隔缺血预适应(RIPC)对大鼠脑缺血模型的保护作用及分子机制。方法:30只成年雄性SD大鼠随机分为4组:假手术组(sham)、RIPC组、缺血再灌注组(MCAO/R)组、RIPC+MCAO/R组;术前通过夹闭双侧股动脉给予相应组RIPC处理,利用大脑中...目的:研究远隔缺血预适应(RIPC)对大鼠脑缺血模型的保护作用及分子机制。方法:30只成年雄性SD大鼠随机分为4组:假手术组(sham)、RIPC组、缺血再灌注组(MCAO/R)组、RIPC+MCAO/R组;术前通过夹闭双侧股动脉给予相应组RIPC处理,利用大脑中动脉栓塞再灌注法(MCAO/R)制备大鼠缺血性脑卒中模型,神经功能评分检测大鼠的神经功能,用2,3,5-三苯四唑氯(TTC)对脑切片进行染色以评估脑梗死的程度。利用real time RT-PCR检测大脑皮质中低氧诱导因子-1α(HIF-1α)和血管内皮生长因子(VEGF) mRNA的表达。结果:与MCAO/R组大鼠相比,RIPC处理组大鼠神经功能缺损症状较轻(P<0.05),脑梗死体积缩小(P<0.01),皮质中HIF-1α和VEGF mRNA的表达表达明显升高(P<0.05)。结论:RIPC处理对减轻缺血性脑卒中大鼠具有保护作用,其分子机制可能与激活HIF-1α/VEGF通路有关。展开更多
