resumen

El objetivo del estudio fue investigar los mecanismos de acción de las cápsulas cerebrales en la inhibición de la contracción celular perivascular inducida por la ruta RHOA/ROCK1 en el daño por reperfusión de isquemia cerebral en ratas. Se dividieron 90 ratas al azar en un grupo de cirugía falsa, un grupo modelo, un grupo de extracto de ginkgo biloba (21.6 mg/kg-1), y grupos de dosis baja, media y alta de cápsulas cerebrales (55, 110, 220 mg/kg-1), con 15 ratas en cada grupo. Adaptaron los bloqueos temporales de la arteria cerebral media (tMCAO) en todos los grupos excepto el de cirugía falsa. Se utilizó la evaluación de la función nerviosa y el láser de dispersión de flujo sanguíneo para la imagen de la circulación sanguínea cerebral, la técnica de tinción con tetrazolio de cloruro (TTC) para calcular la tasa de infarto cerebral, las técnicas de tinción de Heidenhain-Earle (HE) y de Nissl para estudiar los cambios patológicos, la microscopía electrónica para observar la morfología de las células perivasculares, la tinción de azul de Evans para la observación del daño de la barrera hematoencefálica, el kit para medir los niveles de albúmina, y los niveles de albúmina modificados por isquemia. Se utilizaron técnicas de PCR cuantitativo en tiempo real (qPCR) y Western blot para medir los niveles de expresión de ARNm y proteínas de RHOA, ROCK1, receptor del factor de crecimiento derivado de plaquetas β (PDGFRB), α-actina de músculo liso (α-SMA), proteína de unión estrecha-1 (ZO-1), metaloproteinasa-2 de matriz (MMP-2), y metaloproteinasa-9 de matriz (MMP-9). En comparación con el grupo de cirugía falsa, las ratas en el grupo modelo mostraron una disminución en la puntuación de la función nerviosa, un porcentaje de disminución en el flujo sanguíneo cerebral, un aumento en la tasa de infarto cerebral (P<0.01), contracción nuclear neuronal cortical y edema, una reducción en el número de células de Nissl y el área perivascular, un incremento en el contenido de albúmina en la corteza (P<0.05), un aumento en los niveles de albúmina modificada por isquemia (P<0.01), un aumento relativo en los niveles de ARNm y proteínas de RHOA, ROCK1, PDGFRB, α-SMA, MMP-2, y MMP-9 (P<0.01), y una disminución en los niveles de ZO-1. En comparación con el grupo modelo, las ratas en cada grupo tratado mostraron una mejora en la puntuación de la función nerviosa, una disminución en el porcentaje de descenso del flujo sanguíneo cerebral, y una reducción en la tasa de infarto cerebral (P<0.01). También mostraron reducción en los cambios patológicos en la corteza, un incremento en el número de células de Nissl y el área perivascular, una reducción en el contenido de albúmina (P<0.01), una disminución en los niveles de albúmina modificada por isquemia (P<0.01), una disminución en los niveles relat
