Abstract:
Objective To observe the neuroprotective effect of arcaine,an antagonist of receptor of N-methyl-D-aspartate(NMDA) and(or) channel complex polyamines site,on cerebral ischemia.Methods Forty-five Wistar rats were randomly divided into 5 groups: control group,ischemia model group,24h preoperative group,1h preoperative group and 1h postoperative group.Acute cerebral infarction model was reproduced in rats of the latter four groups with middle cerebral artery occlusion(MCAO) using ligature method.Once the ischemia model was successfully established,rats in the latter three ischemia model groups were given arcaine(3mg/kg) at 24h and 1h before operation and 1h after operation,respectively,while normal saline(0.4ml/kg) was injected to the rats in the control group.Neurological function behavior and cerebral infarct volume were assessed,and pathological features of brain tissue were observed under light-and electron microscope.Results Neural function scores of the rats in 24h preoperative group,1h preoperative group and 1h postoperative group were 1.25?0.46,1.33?0.50 and 1.40?0.58,respectively,which were significantly different from that in ischemia model group(2.63?0.52,P
