Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effects of Buyang Huanwu Decoction(BHD) and two kinds of fractions extracted from BHD on expression of caspase-1,caspase-3,and caspase-8 mRNA after cerebral ischemia-reperfusion in rats.Methods The model of cerebral ischemia-reperfusion was induced by the middle cerebral artery occlusion(MCAO) in rats,via string ligation of arteria carotis interna.The expression of caspase-1,caspase-3,and caspase-8 mRNA in cerebral ischemic tissues was assessed by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR).Results The expression of caspase-1,caspase-3,and caspase8 mRNA in cerebral tissues was significantly increased after 22 h reperfusion following 2 h cerebral ischemia in model group(P
