雏菊叶龙胆酮对局灶性脑缺血损伤的保护作用及机制探讨

目的　研究雏菊叶龙胆酮 (Bellidifolin)对大鼠局灶性脑缺血损伤的保护作用,并探讨其可能的作用机制。方法　利用电凝法制作SD大鼠右侧大脑中动脉阻塞 (MCAO)模型,于MCAO缺血后 4h和 24h进行神经行为学评分, 24评分后断头取脑测量脑梗塞面积,应用HE染色和免疫组化法观察Bellidifolin干预后缺血区病理学改变和ICAM 1、Bcl2蛋白的变化。结果　Bellidifolin能改善MCAO缺血后神经功能障碍并缩小脑梗塞面积;减轻相关脑区神经元损伤程度;显著抑制大鼠局灶性脑缺血损伤ICAM 1表达,上调缺血周边区神经元Bcl 2抗凋亡蛋白的表达。结论　Bellidifoli口服给药对缺血性脑损伤有保护作用,其作用机制可能与抑制ICAM 1表达和促进Bcl 2表达有关。

Protective effects and mechanism of action of bellidifolin on focal cerebral ischemia

Aim To explore the neuroprotective effects and possib le mechanism of bellidifolin on focal cerebral ischemia in rats.Methods Focal ce rebral ischemia was induced by permanent occlusion of the proximal portion of ri ght middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO). A neurological examination was perf ormed on each rat 4 hours,24 hours after ischemia by the method of Berderson .T he infarcted size was measured by 2,3,5-triphenrytetrazolium chloride(TTC) st aining technique at 24 hours post-ischemia.Effect of bellidifolin on intercellu lar adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and B lymphocyte myeloma (Bcl-2) immunoreact ive positive cells in peri-infarct region following ischemia and the histological neuronal changes were observed by means of immunohistochemical staining and H E staining.Result Bellidifolin significantly reduced infarc- ted size and improved the neurological deficit in rats .Bellidifolin produced effects of reduction in expression of ICAM-1 and upregulation of antia poptotic protein Bcl-2 on focal cerebral ischemia.Conclusion B ellidifolin has neuroprotective effects on focal cerebral ischemia in rats by or al administration.Mechanism of neuroprotective effects is related to downregulat ion of ICAM-1 and upregulation of antiapoptotic protein Bcl-2 on focal cerebr al ischemia.
