Abstract:
Objective To observe the effects of rosuvastatin on the expression of interleukin-1β( IL -1β) and interleukin -12 ( IL-12 ) in rats with focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion.Methods Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned into three groups: Sham operation group, focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion group(model group) and rosu-vastatin preconditioning group ( test group) .Before making a model, the rats in the test group were lavaged with rosuvastatin 5 mg· kg-1 · d-1 , once a day for consecutive days.The middle cerebral artery occlusion reperfu-sion model was made by the suture method ( ischemia for 1 hour, and reperfusion for 12 hours).The level of IL-1βand IL-12 expression were measured by enzyme -linked immunosorbent assay ( ELISA ) and polymerase chain reaction ( PCR ).Results Compared with model group, the expression of IL-1βand IL-12 in the rats of test group were downregulated ( P<0.05 ).Conclusion Rosuvastatin can relieve the brain damage induced by focal cerebral ischemia -reperfusion, whose mechanisms seemed related to inhibiting the expression of IL-1βand IL-12.
