Neurovascular protection of salvianolic acid B and ginsenoside Rg1 combination against acute ischemic stroke in rats
Ischemic stroke continues to be a major global health problem associated with considerable mortality and morbidity. Thus, it is still targeted by researchers for developing new strategies or drugs to alleviate the lesion of stroke. In the present study, both the permanent occlusion of the middle cerebral artery (MCAO) model and the restoration of cerebral blood flow after middle cerebral artery occlusion (CI/R) model were set up for evaluating the efficiency of salvianolic acid B and ginsenoside Rg1 combination (SalB-Rg1). SalB-Rg1 decreased infarct area through 3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride stain and improved neurolog...

Electrophilic and Drug-Induced Stimulation of NOTCH3 N-terminal Fragment Oligomerization in Cerebrovascular Pathology
AbstractSmall vessel disease is a prevalent age-related condition linked to increased risk of dementia and stroke. We investigate the most commonly inherited form, CADASIL, caused by cysteine-involving mutations inNOTCH3. Recent studies highlight accumulation of NOTCH3 N-terminal fragmentation product (NTF) in disease. In vitro, NTF is capable of both spontaneous and catecholamine-enhanced cysteine-mediated oligomerization. Despite well-characterized genetic influence on CADASIL, environmental effects, including medication usage, on disease remain unclear. We studied effects of assorted electrophilic compounds and drugs on...

Protective Role of Low Ethanol Administration Following Ischemic Stroke via Recovery of KCC2 and p75 NTR Expression
AbstractA striking result from epidemiological studies show a correlation between low alcohol intake and lower incidence for ischemic stroke and severity of derived brain injury. Although reduced apoptosis and inflammation has been suggested to be involved, little is known about the mechanism mediating this effect in vivo. Increase in intracellular chloride concentration and derived depolarizing GABAAR-mediated transmission are common consequences following various brain injuries and are caused by the abnormal expression levels of the chloride cotransporters NKCC1 and KCC2. Downstream pro-apoptotic signaling through p75NTR...

Selective-cerebral-hypothermia-induced neuroprotection against-focal cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury is associated with an increase in SUMO2/3 conjugation.
In this study, we investigated the effect of selective cerebral hypothermia on SUMO2/3 conjugation during focal cerebral I/R injury. A total of 140 Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into four groups. In the sham group, only the carotid artery was exposed. The endoluminal filament technique was used to induce middle cerebral artery occlusion in the other three groups. After 2 hours of occlusion, the filaments were slowly removed to allow blood reperfusion in the I/R group. In the hypothermia (HT) group and normothermia (NT) group, normal saline at 4°C and 37°C, respectively , was perfused through the carotid artery, follow...

Protocatechuic Acid Prevents Early Hour Ischemic Reperfusion Brain Damage by Restoring Imbalance of Neuronal Cell Death and Survival Proteins
Objective: To investigate the neuroprotective effect of protocatechuic acid (PCA) on cell death/survival protein imbalance in a rat model of middle cerebral artery occlusion and reperfusion. Methods: Focal ischemia was induced by middle cerebral artery occlusion in adult male Wistar rats and confirmed by measuring infarction of brain by 2,3,5-Triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC) staining. Rats were treated with vehicle or PCA at 10, 30 or 50 mg/kg dose intraperitoneally and subjected to neurological deficits or beam walk assessment at 24 h of reperfusion.

Inhibition of LncRNA MALAT1 Attenuates Cerebral Ischemic Reperfusion Injury via Regulating AQP4 Expression
Stroke is one of the leading causes of mortality and disability worldwide. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) including MALAT1 have been shown to have critical roles in cerebral ischemia reperfusion injury (CIRI). However, the underlying mechanism of MALAT1 in CIRI has not been elucidated. The present study aimed to investigate the function and potential regulatory mechanism of MALAT1 in cerebral ischemic reperfusion injury. We established the middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) model and oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/RX) model in vivo and in vitro, and then Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8), RT-qPCR, flow cytomet...

Inhibited CSF1R Alleviates Ischemia Injury via Inhibition of Microglia M1 Polarization and NLRP3 Pathway.
In this study, cerebral ischemia stroke mice model was established. The C57/B6J mice were administered with Ki20227, a CSF1R inhibitor, by gavage for 7 consecutive days (0.002 mg/kg/day) before modeling. The Rota-Rod test and neurobehavioral score test were investigated to assess neurobehavioral functions. The area of infarction was assessed by 2, 3, 5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC) staining. The mRNA expressions of M1/M2 microglia markers were evaluated by real-time PCR. Immunofluorescence and Western blot were utilized to detect the changes of Iba1 and NLRP3 pathway proteins. Results showed that neurobehavioral fu...

Electroacupuncture promotes axonal regrowth by attenuating the myelin-associated inhibitors-induced RhoA/ROCK pathway in cerebral ischemia/reperfusion rats.
This study explored whether EA can improve the inhibitory microenvironment, attenuate RhoA/ROCK-mediated neurite regrowth inhibitory pathways, andpromote the expression of neuroplasticity proteins, thus exerting a protective role in cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. Rats were subjected to middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) for 2 h followed by 7 days of reperfusion, and they received EA or fasudil once daily for 7 days. The Garcia JH score, 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC) staining, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) were used to assess neural injury. The protein and mRNA levels of myelin-ass...

Waggle needling wields preferable neuroprotective and anti-spastic effects on post-stroke spasticity rats by attenuating γ-aminobutyric acid transaminase and enhancing γ-aminobutyric acid.
This study was designed to compare the anti-spastic effect of waggle needling to the routine needling and to explore its underlying mechanism. We established post-stroke spasticity model based on ischemia stroke operation (middle cerebral artery occlusion). Rats were divided into six groups: normal control group, sham-operated control group, ischemia stroke model group, waggle needling group, routine needling group and baclofen group. Neurological function and muscle tone were assessed by the Zea Longa score and modified Ashworth scale, respectively. Indirect muscle tone was testified with electrophysiological recording. C...
