Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To explore the mechanism of procyanidins on mitochondrion injury caused by cerebral ischemia reperfusion(IR) in rats.METHODS:Forty-eight Wistar rats were randomly separated into 4 groups including sham operation group,IR model group,procyanidins pretreatment high and low doses groups(400,40 mg?kg-1).After medication for 30 days,the reperfusion model following focal cerebral ischemia in rats was made by thread embolish of MCA,and the rats were put to death 2 h later for sampling of brain tissues.The expression of cytochrome C protein was detected by immunofluorescence method and that of caspase-9 mRNA was detected by RT-PCR technique.RESULTS:There were significantly more cytochrome C and less caspase-9 mRNA in procyanidins pretreatment group than in IR model group(P
