The divalent cation zinc has been reported to possess several physiological properties such as blocking apoptotic cell death through an inhibitory effect on Ca2+-Mg2+ endonuclease activity, or modulating the neurotoxicity via glutamate receptor subtypes. In the present study, we investigated the effect of peripherally injected zinc on delayed neuronal death seen in the hippocampus after transient global ischemia, in order to elucidate a possible beneficial role on zinc in ischemic neuronal cell death. Forty-five adult Mongolian gerbils of both sexes underwent transient bilateral clipping of the common carotid arteries for 3 min. In the pretreated animals, ZnCl2 (20 mg/kg) was injected subcutaneously once, 1 h before ischemia (superacute group; n=6) or twice at 24 and 48 h before ischemia (subacute group; n=14). Histological survey was carried out 3 days later by in situ DNA fragmentation method and 4 days later by hematoxylin-eosin staining by semiquantatively counting dead neurons in the CA1 sector. Subacute zinc pre-administration significantly reduced the nuclear damage and subsequent neuronal death; however, superacutely pre-administered zinc did not protect hippocampal neurons against ischemia but it did not aggravate the effect of ischemia, either. The present study suggested that transfer of exogenous zinc into the intracellular space is required for neuroprotection, presumably via the anti-endonuclease activity. 相似文献

We investigated the effects of mild and non-lethal ischemic insult on neuronal death following subsequent lethal ischemic stress in various brain regions, using a gerbil model of bilateral cerebral ischemia. Single 10-min ischemia consistently caused neuronal damage in the hippocampal CA1, CA2, CA3 and CA4, layer III/IV of the cerebral cortex, dorsolateral part of the caudoputamen and ventrolateral part of the thalamus. On the other hand, in double ischemia groups, 2-min ischemic insult 2 days before 10-min ischemia exhibited significant protection in the CA1 and CA3 of the hippocampus, the cerebral cortex, the caudoputamen and the thalamus. Five-min ischemic insult 2 days before 10-min ischemia also showed protective effect in the same areas as those of 2-min ischemia except for the CA1 region of the hippocampus, while 1-min ischemic insult exhibited no protective effect in any brain regions. In the immunoblot analysis, both 2- and 5-min ischemia caused increased synthesis of heat shock protein 72 (HSP 72) in the hippocampus, but 1-min ischemia did not. The present study demonstrated that the ‘ischemic tolerance’ phenomenon was widely found in the brain and also suggested that ischemic treatment severe enough to cause HSP 72 synthesis might be needed for induction of ‘ischemic tolerance’. 相似文献

Aim: Although several studies have reported various causes of ischemic stroke in patients with cancer, only a few have evaluated the clinical relevance of ischemic stroke pathogenesis to cancer. The aim of the present study was to elucidate the clinical characteristics of cancer‐associated ischemic stroke. Methods: We evaluated 154 ischemic stroke patients without cancer and 57 ischemic stroke patients with cancer who had either received continuous treatment for cancer within 5 years before to the onset of ischemic stroke, or who had been diagnosed with cancer within 1 year after the onset of ischemic stroke. Cancer patients were grouped into “cancer‐associated ischemic stroke,” the “conventional ischemic stroke,” or “other.” Results: A total of 15 patients (26%) were classified into the cancer‐associated ischemic stroke in cancer patients. In univariate analysis of the cancer‐associated ischemic stroke and the others, there were significant differences in the prevalence of hypertension, hyperlipidemia and advanced cancer (clinical stage IV), and the levels of d ‐dimer, fibrin degradation product and hemoglobin. With multivariate regression analysis of those factors, the prevalence of hypertension, hyperlipidemia and advanced cancer (clinical stage IV), and the levels of d ‐dimer and fibrin degradation product remained as statistically independent factors, which were associated with cancer‐associated ischemic stroke (n = 111, χ2 = 67.21, P < 0.0001). Conclusion: In acute ischemic stroke, the cancer‐associated ischemic stroke is associated with elevated d ‐dimer and fibrin degradation products, even after controlling hypertension, hyperlipidemia and advanced cancer (clinical stage IV).

Alpha2-macroglobulin is a protease inhibitor that enhances procoagulant properties via the neutralization of plasmin, plasminogen activators and metalloproteinases. Additionally, alpha2-macroglobulin is thought to be involved in inflammatory reactions as a carrier protein for interleukin-6 (IL-6). The objective of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of alpha2-macroglobulin as a biomarker for cerebrovascular diseases. Patients with acute ischemic stroke (n = 159; 93 male and 66 female, 71.6 ± 10.3 years) and patients with no previous history of stroke (n = 77; 38 male and 39 female, 70.7 ± 9.5 years) were consecutively enrolled in this study. White matter lesions were assessed via the fluid-attenuated inversion recovery image of magnetic resonance images using the Fazekas classification. The serum alpha2-macroglobulin levels were measured by nephelometry. The serum alpha2-macroglobulin levels at admission in patients with acute ischemic stroke were higher than those in the control patients (230.2 ± 73.7 vs. 205.0 ± 55.8 mg/dl, p = 0.009). The serum alpha2-macroglobulin levels were positively correlated with age and the severity of the white matter lesions (R 2 = 0.048, p < 0.001 and R 2 = 0.058, p < 0.001, respectively), although there was no significant association between serum alpha2-macroglobulin levels and IL-6 levels. In addition, multivariate analysis showed that increased serum alpha2-macroglobulin levels were independently associated with the severity of white matter lesions [standardized partial regression coefficient (β) 0.102, p = 0.026]. Increased serum alpha2-macroglobulin levels might be involved in the pathophysiology of acute ischemic stroke. Furthermore, serum alpha2-macroglobulin levels, which were associated with high-grade white matter lesions, may reflect the chronic pathophysiological condition of cerebral small vessel disease. 相似文献

We examined the cerebellar metabolism of a 61-year-old man with a small infarct in the left middle cerebellar peduncle and an intact cerebellum. Positron emission tomographic images obtained 28 days after onset showed prominent hypoperfusion and hypometabolism (almost 50% below the normal level) in the left cerebellar hemisphere. This case report shows that neural deafferentation may cause prominent hypometabolism without morphologic changes in the cerebellum. An arrest in synaptic activity may be the most important factor for the adaptive decrease in oxygen metabolism seen in ischemic brain. 相似文献

Circulating adhesion molecules are correlated with ultrasonic assessment of carotid plaques 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Hashimoto H Kitagawa K Kuwabara K Hougaku H Ohtsuki T Matsumoto M Hori M 《Clinical science (London, England : 1979)》2003,104(5):521-527
The relationship between levels of circulating intercellular cell-adhesion molecule-1 (cICAM-1) or P-selectin (cP-selectin) and the severity of carotid atherosclerosis was examined in 301 outpatients undergoing duplex ultrasonographic examination. Carotid plaque was defined as an intima-media thickness greater than 1.0 mm, and a plaque score (PS) was calculated from the plaque thickness in both carotid arteries. Multivariate analysis demonstrated significant positive associations between cICAM-1 and the number of plaques [beta = 0.11; confidence interval (CI), 0.007-0.213], maximum intima-media thickness (beta = 0.11; CI, 0.01-0.219), and PS (beta = 0.10; CI, 0.001-0.205). In contrast, no significant association was found for cP-selectin. cP-selectin did not increase until atherosclerosis was advanced (PS > 10), showing a marked increase in patients with >/= 50% stenosis. The circulating levels of both proteins are related to real measurements of plaque formation in the carotid arteries independently of classical risk factors. Marked elevation of cP-selectin occurs in advanced carotid atherosclerosis after gradual elevation of cICAM-1. 相似文献

Two cases of cerebral embolism caused by apical thrombi in midventricular obstructive cardiomyopathy
Takeda I Sekine M Matsushima H Hosomi N Nakamura T Ohtsuki T Yamawaki T Matsumoto M 《Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan)》2011,50(9):1059-1060
Midventricular obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (MOHC) is a rare form of cardiomyopathy that was demonstrated to have caused embolic stroke in two patients. In both cases, the embolic sources of stroke were thrombi in an apical aneurysm caused by turbulent stasis of blood flow and subsequent injury of myocardial endocardium. Even without atrial fibrillation, apical aneurysm can induce emboligenic stroke in MOHC. 相似文献
