Effects of naloxone on rat cortical neuron apoptosis induced by anoxia

Objective: To investigate the damage of anoxia on the cultured rat's c ortical neurons and the protective effects of naloxone. Methods: Cortical neurons cultured for 12 days were randomly divided into three groups: control, anoxic group and anoxic group plus naloxone treated. Cortical neurons were exposed to anox ic environment for 6 hours and then cultured for 24 hours under normoxic condition. The apoptosis o f neurons was detected with the method of TdTmediated dUTP nick end labeling(TUNEL) and the apoptotic rate of neurons was measured using flow cytometry. Results: Anoxia could lead to increasing apoptosis an d death of rate cortical neurons. Naloxone could reduce neuron apoptosis. There was a significant difference between the anoxic group and anoxic group plus naloxone(P<0 01). Conclusion: Naloxo ne can ameliorate the toxicity damage of neurons caused by anoxia through re ducing neuron apoptosis, which suggests that naloxone could protect rat's cortic al neurons from damage under anoxia condition.
