Abstract:
Objective To investigate focal cerebral ischemia on cell proliferation and expression of glial fibrillary acidic protein(GFAP) in caveolin-1 knockout mice.Methods Focal cerebral ischemia was induced by middle cerebral artery occlusion(MCAO) to caveolin-1-knockout mice and homologous C57 wild-mice.Expression of BrdU and GFAP in the brain were detected using immunohistochemistry in the postoperative 7d.Results The number of BrdU( (29.04 ± 1.68 )/mm2 ; (24.13 ±- 1.57 )/mm2 ) and GFAP-positive cells ( ( 10.75 ± 2.32 )/mm2 ; ( 18.14 ± 1.95 )/mm2 ) were increased in wild-type and caveolin-1 -knockout mice after ischemia,and there was significant difference compared with sham group (BRDU( 6.15 ± 1.09 )/mm2,(6.23 ± 1.05 )/mm2 ; GFAP (2.31 ±0.98)/mm2,(2.07 ± 1.01 )/mm2 ) (P<0.05).Expression of BMU in knockout mice was less than that in wild mice,but expression GFAP in knockout mice was stronger than that in wild mice,and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05 ).Conclusion Cerebral ischemia can promote cell proliferation and glial activation in brain,loss of caveolin-1 reduced cell proliferation and enhanced glial activation early stage of brain ischemia.
