ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the effects of application calcitonin gene related peptide(CGRP) in cisterna magna on cerebral vasospasm after experimental subarachnoid hemorrhage (subarachnoid hemorrhage,SAH) in rat models.Methods 64 male Wistar rats were randomly divided into 4 groups.Group A was normal control group.After the subarachnoid hemorrhage models were established,group B,C,D were given normal saline,CGRP and adenovirus CGRP through cisterna magna respectively.White blood cells in cerebrospinal fluid were detected by automatic blood analyzer,CGRP activity was detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay,circulating endothelial cells were observed through laser scanning confocal microscope and parietal cortex regional cerebral blood flow were observed by laser doppler flowmeter.Basilar artery vasospasm and arterial blood gas analysis were detected by digital subtraction angiography and blood gas analyzer respectively.Results Before and after administration,there were no statistical differences in white blood cells and artery blood gas among the 4 groups (both P＞ 0.05).After administration 48 h,compared with group A,concentrations of CGRP in cerebrospinal fluid group B (0.006±0.002) did not increase (P＞0.05),but increased 200 times in Group C ((1.160±0.170) nmol/L,P＜0.05)and nearly 400 times in group D ((2.071±0.412) nmol/L,P＜0.05).Peripheral blood circulating endothelial cells count:after administration 48 h,group C((5.56±0.61) ind/0.9 μL) was less than in group B((9.94± 0.73) ind/0.9 μL).Group D((5.16±0.61) ind/0.9 μL) was less than group C(P＜0.01).Regional cerebral blood flow:after administration,compared with group B,cerebral blood flow of group C and group D increased,and the differences were both statistically significant (P＜0.01).Basilar artery diameter was detected after administration 12 h,group D ((1.000±0.025) mm) was 13％ bigger than group B ((0.670±0.028)mm,P＜0.05),3％ bigger than group C ((0.900±0.023) mm) (P＞0.05).Conclusion Cerebral vasospasm after SAH can be effectively improved by administration CGRP in cisterna magna.Adenovirus CGRP effect is better than CGRP.
ABSTRACT
Objective The hypoxic-ischemic(HI) cardio-cerebral damage caused by cardiac arrest in perioperative period is the main cause of acute and chronic disability in children patients.To investigate role of mitochondrial dysfunction in hypoxic-ischemic brain damage of mice.Methods The hypoxic-ischemic mice model was established by the bilateral carotid artery occlusion and hypoxia treatment.The neurobehavior of mice in HI model group,sham-operated group,and comparative group were evaluated within 48 hours after operation.After 48 hours,the mice were killed to evaluate the brain water content,mitochondria content,swelling,antioxidant capacity,and respiratory function.Results Within 0,24 hours after operation,the abnormal rate of the neurobehavior of HI model mice was 83.33％,which was significantly higher than comparative and sham-operated groups.The water content of right brain was significantly increased evidently compared to the other two groups (P ＜ 0.05).The content and swelling of mitochondria in brain were increased.The activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD),the glutathione (GSH) content,respiratory state 3 (ST3),and respiration control of rate (RCR) were significantly decreased; while the content of malondialdehyde (MDA) and ST4 were significantly increased (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions The brain tissue showed different swelling,the mitochondrial function occurred disorder,which might play an important role in hypoxic-ischemic brain damage of mice.
