To study the antioxidant and antiapoptotic effects of U-74389G on ischemic brain in rats.
Right focal cerebral ischemia and reperfusion was induced by suturing in 103 male SD rats weighing 280-310 g. To determine LPO in the cortex and striatum, we randomly divided 78 rats into 5 groups: group 1, sham-operative group (6 rats); group 2, control (18); group 3, U-74389G administration before ischemia (18); group 4, U-74389G administration before reperfusion; group 5, CS-4 vehicle as negative control. Groups 2-5 were further divided into 3 subgroups according to the duration of reperfusion. Another 25 rats were similarly grouped (5) to detect apoptosis with TUNEL stain.
The concentrations of MDA in groups 3 and 4 were reduced and the activities of SOD and concentrations of GSH were partially restored as compared with the control group. These effects were more significant in group 3 than in group 4. Otherwise, CS-4 can not provide protective effects. The number of apoptotic cells in groups 3 (P < 0.01) and 4 (P < 0.05) was significantly reduced as compared with the control group.
U-74389G has antioxidant and antiapoptotic effects on ischemic brain in rats. The administration of U-74389G before the onset of ischemia was more useful than that before the onset of reperfusion.
研究U-74389G对大鼠缺血性脑损伤的抗氧化及抗凋亡作用。
采用线栓法对103只体重280 - 310 g的雄性SD大鼠进行右侧局灶性脑缺血再灌注。为测定皮质和纹状体中的脂质过氧化物(LPO),将78只大鼠随机分为5组:第1组,假手术组(6只大鼠);第2组,对照组(18只);第3组,缺血前给予U-74389G组(18只);第4组,再灌注前给予U-74389G组;第5组,CS-4溶媒作为阴性对照组。第2 - 5组根据再灌注时间进一步分为3个亚组。另外25只大鼠按同样方法分组(每组5只),采用TUNEL染色检测细胞凋亡情况。
与对照组相比,第3组和第4组的丙二醛(MDA)浓度降低,超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)活性及谷胱甘肽(GSH)浓度部分恢复。这些作用在第3组比第4组更显著。此外,CS-4不能提供保护作用。与对照组相比,第3组(P < 0.01)和第4组(P < 0.05)的凋亡细胞数量显著减少。
U-74389G对大鼠缺血性脑损伤具有抗氧化及抗凋亡作用。缺血发作前给予U-74389G比再灌注发作前给予更有效。
