Abstract:
AIM: To explore the effect of complement on the cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury in rat and the protection by sCR1-SCR15-18. METHODS: 75 male SD rats were randomly divided into three groups: sham operation group (SO, n=15), middle cerebral artery occlusion and reperfusion (MCAO) without treatment group (I/R, n=30); MCAO treated with sCR1-SCR15-18 group (sCR1-SCR15-18, n=30). After the MCAO for 2 h, then reperfusion for 24 h, the scores of neural behavioral functional deficits were determined. Infarction area was measured by TTC staining. Activity of MPO in cerebral cortex was detected. C3b deposition and pathological change were observed by immunohistochemial staining and HE staining, respectively. RESULTS: After reperfusion for 24 h, the neurological deficits score, infarction area and activity of MPO in sCR1-SCR15-18 group were decreased compared to I/R group. In sCR1-SCR15-18 group, C3b deposition in ischemic area was decreased and pathological injury was improved compared to I/R group. CONCLUSION: Complement plays a role in cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury and sCR1-SCR15-18 exerts a protective effect by inhibiting the excessive activation of complement.
