Abstract:
Aim To study the interfering effects of picrosideⅡ on the expressions of nuclear transcription factor kappaB(NF-κB)and inhibitor of NF-κB(I-κB)after cerebral ischemic reperfusion in rats.Methods Intraluminal thread methods were applied to establish the middle cerebral artery occlusion reperfusion models in rats.PicrosideⅡ(10 mg·kg~(-1))and salvianic acid A sodium(10 mg·kg~(-1))were injected from the tail vein for treatment.TUNEL positive cells were counted by immunofluorescence assay.The expressions of NF-κB and I-κB were determined by immunohistochemical assay,and the concentration of NF-κB and I-κB in brain tissue was determined by ELISA.Results The exprssions of NF-κB and I-κB were weakly and the apoptotic cells were scattering at cortex,striatum and hippocampus in the sham operative group.In the negative control group,the number of TUNEL positive cells and the expressions of NF-κB and I-κB increased,the absorption(A)values and the concentration were significantly higher than those in the sham operative group(P<0.05).While in the positive control and picroside groups,the expressions(A values)and concentration of NF-κB and I-κB and the number of TUNEL positive cells were significantly lower than those in the negative control group(P<0.05).There was no significant difference between the positive control group and picroside group(P>0.05).Conclusion Picroside Ⅱ might downregulate the expressions of NF-κB and I-κB to inhibit neuronal apoptosis induced by inflammation after cerebral ischemia reperfusion injury in rats.
