Abstract:
Objective To study the expression of smad2/3 protein and the effects of flunarizine on the its expression in braln tissue following transient cerebral ischemie reperfusion in gerbils. Methods A cerebral ischemia-reperfusion model in gerbils was established by clamping both common carotids. Thirty-five gerbils were randomly divided into three groups, sham operation group, cerebral ischemia-reperfusion group and flunarizine treatment group. The expression of smad2/3 protein in brain tissue was detected by immunohistochemistry technique. Results Experimental results revealed that smad2/3 protein was expressed in neuroeyte in 35 gerbil brain. Compared with sham operation group, the expression of smad2/3 protein in neurecytes of cerebral isehemia-reperfusion group was evidently increased at the lst day, 3rd day and 7th day (P <0. 01). Compared with cerebral ischemia-reperfusion group, the expression of smad2/3 protein in neurecytes of gerbils in flunarizine treatment group was evidently decreased at these time point (P < 0.05). Condusions Smad2/3 protein was expressed in nettrcvytes of gerbils. Expression of smad2/3 protein in neuroeytes of gerbils was evidently increased following cerebral ischemic reperfusion, and its expression in flunarizine treatment group was evidently decreased.
