Abstract:
Objective To explore the effect of erythropoietin (EPO) on caspase-9 mRNA expression after globe ischemia-reperfusion in rats.Methods The globe ischemia-reperfusion models of rats were divided randomly into three groups: group A, group B and group C. Both group A and group B included 5 subgroups according to different reperfusion time (6 h, 12 h, 24 h, 48 h and 72 h). The rats of group B were treated with EPO after globe ischemia-reperfusion. Brain tissues were taken out after execution at different time point. The expression of caspase-9 mRNA was detected with reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR) technique.Results (1) After ischemia-reperfusion, the expressions of caspase-9 mRNA in group A were significantly higher than those in group B and group C (all P
