Abstract:
Objective To investigate the treatment of octanol on matrix metalloproteinase-9(MMP-9) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1) protein expression,cerebral water content,infarction volume after ischemia-reperfusion in rats.Methods 150 SD rats were randomly divided into sham operated group (n=24),MCAO group (n=24),DMSO solvent control group (n=24) and octanol treatment group (n=24).A model of middle cerebral artery occlusion was induced by suture method.TTC stain was used to detect the infarction volume,dry-wet weight method to determine the brain water content.The expression of MMP-9 and TIMP-1 protein was detected by immunofiuorescence and Western blot.Results At 24 h of reperfusion after ischemia for 2 h,the octanol treatment group compared with MCAO group brain infarction volume obviously decreased(P<0.05),water content significantly reduced ((78.16± 1.47) % vs (80.88±0.73) %,P<0.05),the number of MMP-9 positive cells obviously decreased((10.67±2.16) vs (29.00±3.40),P<0.05),the expression of MMP-9 protein significantly reduced ((0.14±0.01) vs (0.21±0.02),P<0.05)and the number of TIMP-1 positive cells significantly increased ((27.83 ±2.13) vs (5.67± 1.03),P<0.05),the expression of TIMP-1 protein obviously increased((0.42±0.01) vs (0.28± 0.01),P<0.05).The difference between MCAO group and DMSO solvent control group was not statistically significant(P <0.05).Conclusion Octanol may reduce brain edema,brain infarction volume.Up-regulation the expression of MMP-9 and down-regulation the expression of TIMP-1 may be one of the underlying mechanisms of the octanol neuroprotection.
