Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effects of cromolyn sodium(CS)on forebrain ischemiareperfusion injury in gerbils.Methods Twenty-four male gerbils weishing 55-70 g were randomly divided into 3 groups(n=8 each):group Ⅰ sham operation;groupⅡ I/R and group Ⅲ CS 50 mg/kg+I/R.Forebrain ischemia was produced by occlusion of bilateral common carotid arteries for 10 min and confirmed by isoelectricity of EEG. CS was injected via lingual vein at 0 and 1 h of reperfusion.All the animals were killed at 2 h of reperfusion for determination of cerebral cortex injury score,cerebral water content[(wet weight-dry weight)/wet weight×100%],cerebral MDA content,SOD activity and histamine content.Results The cerebral cortex injury 8core,cerebral water content, MDA content and histamine content were significantly increased while SOD activity was signiiieantly decreased in I/R group(Ⅱ)aa compared with sham operation group(Ⅰ)(P<0.05 or 0.01).CS significantly attenuated the I/R-induced changes(P<0.05 or 0.01).Conclusion CS can attenuate the forebrain ischemia-reperfusion injury by reducing histamine and oxidative response.
