ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVES:
Natural borneol and synthetic borneol were commonly used to treat ischaemic stroke in clinical practice. This study evaluated their different neuroprotective effects on the remodelling and repair of the neurovascular unit (NVU) after cerebral ischaemia.METHODS:
We evaluated the different effects of borneol through neurological test and staining methods in cerebral ischaemia injury. Western blot, immunohistochemistry and transmission electron microscopy were used to evaluate the reparative effects of borneol on NVU. KEYFINDINGS:
The prevention and treatment of borneol could prolong recovery time, reduce body temperature and cerebral infarction rate and improve pathological conditions. Further investigations revealed that borneol could inhibit the expression of DII4, Hes1, Hes5 and p65 and increase the Nissl body number and microvessel density. They also inhibited the activation of the microglia. It was also observed through an ultramicroelectron microscope that the structural stability of the NVU has also been repaired. Moreover, natural borneol shows better results in most indicators when compared with synthetic borneol.CONCLUSIONS:
Natural borneol showed a stronger effectiveness and had better regulation and neuroprotection on the NVU when compared with synthetic borneol, indicating that it may be better to use natural borneol in the prescription of Chinese patent medicine in clinical practice.Palavras-chave
