ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo evaluate the effect of aminooxyacetic acid on focal cerebral ischemia injury in rats.MethodsEighty healthy male SD rats aged 2.5 month weighing 250-280 g were randomly divided into five groups( n = 16 each)sham operation group(group S),cerebral ischemia group(group Ⅰ),aminooxoacetic acid low,medium and high dose groups(groups AL,AM and AH ).Focal cerebral ischemia was induced by occlusion of middle cerebral artery using a nylon thread with rounding tip which was inserted into right internal carotid artery in groups I,AL,AM and AH.Intraperitoneal amincoxoacetic acid 25,50 and 100 μmol/kg were administered at 3 h of ischemia in groups AL,AM and AH respectively,while equal volume of normal saline 1 ml/kg were injected in groups S and I.Neurological function was assessed and scored (0= no deficit,4= unable to move,unconscious) in 8 rats at 21 h after aminooxyacetic acid administration in each group.The animals were then sacrificed and the brains were removed for determination of the cystathionine beta-synthase (CBS) activities in cortex,hippocampus and striatum corpora.The other eight rats of each group were sacrificed at 21 h after amincoxoacetic acid administration for determination of the cerebral infarct volume.ResultsCompared with group S,the neurological deficit scores and the CBS activities in cortex and hippocampus were significantly increased,the infarct volumes were significantly enlarged in group Ⅰ ( P < 0.05).Compared with group Ⅰ,the neurological deficit scores and the CBS activities in cortex and hippocampus were significantly decreased,the cerebral infarct volumes were significantly reduced in groups AM and AH (P < 0.05).There was no significant difference in the above-mentioned variables between groups AL and Ⅰ.ConclusionAminooxoacetic acid can reduce focal cerebral ischemia injury by decreasing CBS activity and reducing H2 S production in rats.
