Objective To explore the changes of rennin-angiotensin system in rats with focal brain ischemia-reperfusion injury and the effects of intervention and neuroprotective mechanisms with Irbsartan. Methods The male SD rats were randomly assigned to sham operated group, ischemia-reperfusion (IR) group and Irbsartan pretreatment group. The focal IR model was made by suture occlusion of right middle cerebral artery (MCAO). At 24 h and 72 h following onset of MCAO with reperfusion,the neurologic impairment function scores and the infarction volume were evaluated, the mRNA expression of angiotensinⅡ type 1 receptor (AT1R) and angiotensinⅡ type 2 receptor(AT2R)were detected by RT-PCR, and AngⅡ levels and Renin activity were examined by radioimmuno-assay. Results (1) Pretreatment with Irbsartan could significantly improve neurological outcome and reduced infarction size. (2) In bilateral cerebral cortex, hypothalamus, brain stem and peripheral blood leucocyte, the mRNA expressions of the AT1R and AT2R were significantly increased after either 24 h or 72 h of MCAO with reperfusion (all P

Objective To study the effect of Irbesartan on the level of serum high-sensitivity C-reactive protein(hs-CRP) in the patients with acute cerebral infarction(ACI).Methods 60 patients with ACI were randomly assigned to Irbesartan therapy group(n=30) treated with Irbesartan 150 mg/d combined Aspirin 100 mg/d and conventional therapy group(n=30) treated with Aspirin 100 mg/d.Both groups were treated for 14 consecutive days and the other measures of symptomatic therapy were same.And another 30 patients without cerebrovascular diseases were selected as control group.The levels of serum hs-CRP were measured and the scores of neurological deficit(NDS) were evaluated before and after treatment.Results(1) Before treatment the levels of serum hs-CRP of ACI patients in both therapy groups were significantly higher than that in control group(all P
