Effects of Gei Herba on Neuronal Apoptosis and Protein Expression in Peri-infarct Cortex of Rats with Permenant Middle Cerebral Artery Occlusion
Objective: To observe the effect of Gei Herba on neuronal apoptosis and protein expressions in the peri-infarct cortex of rats with permenant middle cerebral artery occlusion
and investigate its possible mechanism. Method: Totally 72 SD rats were used to establish the models of permenant middle cerebral artery occlusion (pMCAO) by suture-occluded method
and they were randomly divided into sham-operation group
model group
Gei Herba high
middle and low dose groups (7.00
3.50
1.75 g · kg-1) and positive control group (Yinxingye tablet
0.007 g · kg-1). The rats were administered with appropriate drugs intragastrically for 3 consecutive days.The nerve function scores were detected; extent of cerebral infarction was observed by 2
3
5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC) staining; the pathological changes in peri-infarct cortex were observed by htoxylin eosin (HE) staining; neuronal apoptosis was detected by TUNEL staining; Bcl-2 and Bax protein expression levels were detected by immunohistochemical assay. Result: The nerve function scores and the extent of cerebral infarction were significantly increased; and the neurons were degenerated; the levels of Bax protein expression were increased and Bcl-2 protein expression were decreased of the peri-infarct cortex in pMCAO rats after cerebral ischemia for 3 d
with statistically significant differences as compared with the sham operation group (P<0.01). As compared with the model group
Gei Herba high
middle and low dose groups showed reduction in the nerve function scores and the cerebral infarction extent
improved the pathological changes in peri-infarct cortex
inhibited the neuronal apoptosis
promoted the protein expression of apoptin Bcl-2
and inhibited the protein expression of apoptin Bax (P<0.05). Conclusion: Gei Herba has certain protective effect on the cerebral ischemia injury in rats
and its mechanism may be related to increasing Bcl-2 level
inhibiting Bax activities in peri-infarct cortex
promoting anti-ischemia brain injury capacity and inhibiting apoptosis of nerve cells.
