Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of preconditioning electrostimulation of fastigial nucleus (FNS) on the neuronal mitochondrion of rats early after cerebral ischemia. Methods Forty Wistar rats were used and divided into 5 groups: a normal control group, a sham FNS group and 3 FNS groups. The FNS of the rats in the FNS groups was conducted for 1 hr, 1 day or 7 days, respectively, before the models of middle cerebral artery occlusion(MCAO)were made with them. Three hours after the model was established, the animals were sacrificed and the water content of the brain of the ischemic side was measured. The neuronal mitochondrion was observed by electron microscope, and its Vv, specific volume (Sv) and specific surface (Ss) were analyzed. The rats in the normal control group were not given any special treatment. For the rats in the sham-FNS group, intrinsic neurons of FN were destroyed with ibotenic acid (IBO), and 5 days later, the FN was electrically stimulated, and 1 day later, MCAO models were made. Results Three hours after MCAO, the water content of the brain increased and neurological function score decreased in the sham-FNS group, while the Vv and Sv of neuronal mitochondrion increased and the Ss decreased, which were significantly different from those of the normal control group(P
