Abstract:
Aim To observe the effects of thin recipe of Buyang Huanwu Decoction on angiogenesis and the signal pathway of Nrf2 / HO-1 after cerebral ischemic injury in rats. Methods Totally 120 SD rats were randomly divided into four groups: sham operation group,model group,Buyang Huanwu Decoction group and thin recipe of Buyang Huanwu Decoction group. The focal cerebral ischemia rat model was established by middle cerebral arterial occlusion. Each group was treated with corresponding treatment. Each group was detected after cerebral ischemia for day 1,day 3 and day 7, respectively. Immunohistochemical method was used to detect the plasma levels of factor VIII related antigen( vWF), determination of microvessel density (MVD). The expression of Nrf2,HO-1 gene and pro-tein in brain tissues was detected by Real-Time PCR (RT-PCR) and Western blot. Results ① Compared with sham-operation group, the expression of vWF in the model group was significantly increased on day 3(P< 0. 05). Compared with model group, the expression levels increased differently in each drug group on day 7 (P < 0. 05). ② The expression of Nrf2, HO-1 gene and protein in sham operation group showed a small a-mount of gamma expression. Compared with sham op-eration group at the same time point, the expression of Nrf2 protein was significantly increased on day 3(P <0. 01). Compared with model group at the same time point, the Nrf2mRNA and protein expression was up-regulated in each drug group. The Nrf2mRNA on day 1,the Nrf2 protein on day 1 and day 7 were significant-ly increased( P < 0. 01). Compared with sham opera-tion group at the same time point, the expression of HO-1mRNA and protein in the model group was signif-icantly increased on day 7(P < 0. 05). Compared with model group at the same time point, the HO-1mRNA on day 3, the HO-1 protein on day 3 and day 7 in each drug group were significantly increased (P < 0. 05,P <0. 01). Conclusions The thin recipe of Buyang Hua-nwu Decoction promotes brain angiogenesis after ische-mia. The effect may be related wih the expression of Nrf2 / HO-1 signal pathway.
