Abstract:
Objective To investigate the protective effect of mild hypothermia during cerebral ischemia and reperfusion. Methods After 3 hours of middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) in rats, the myeloperoxi-dase (MPO) activity, the positive expression of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) , and the leukocyte integrin Mac-1 (CD11b/CD18) level in the ischemic regions were determined at different times (6 h,12 h,24 h, 48 h and 72 h) during and after 24 h of reperfusion. Cerebral infarction volume and neurological function were also evaluated in a control group, in addition to the above variables, at 24 hours of reperfusion. Results The MPO activity and the expression of ICAM-1 and Mac-1 were significantly elevated at 6 h after cerebral ischemia during reperfusion. These variables peaked at 48 h. There was a remarkable difference between the various groups and a sham-operated group ( P
