Since hypertension and/or hyperglycemia are risk factors for stroke, we examined whether the putative neuroprotectant, nicotinamide (NAm), could protect spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) or diabetic Fischer 344 rats against focal cerebral ischemia using a model of permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAo). Intravenous NAm given 2 h after MCAo significantly reduced the infarct volume of SHR (750 mg/kg, 31%, P<0.01) and diabetic (500 mg/kg, 56%, P<0.01) as well as non-diabetic (500 mg/kg, 73%, P<0.01) Fischer 344 rats when compared with saline-injected controls. Thus delayed treatment with NAm protected hypertensive and hyperglycemic rats against a robust model of stroke.
由于高血压和/或高血糖是中风的危险因素,我们研究了假定的神经保护剂烟酰胺(NAm)是否能使用永久性大脑中动脉闭塞(MCAo)模型保护自发性高血压大鼠(SHR)或糖尿病Fischer 344大鼠免受局灶性脑缺血的影响。MCAo后2小时静脉注射NAm,与注射生理盐水的对照组相比,显著降低了SHR(750mg/kg,31%,P<0.01)、糖尿病Fischer 344大鼠(500mg/kg,56%,P<0.01)以及非糖尿病Fischer 344大鼠(500mg/kg,73%,P<0.01)的梗死体积。因此,NAm延迟治疗可保护高血压和高血糖大鼠免受严重中风模型的影响。
