Abstract:
Objective To explore the effect and mechanism of necroptosis related proteins in middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) induced brain ischemia/reperfusion injury in mice.Methods C57BL/6 mice were used to establish the brain ischemia/reperfusion injury model induced by MCAO.MCAO mice were treated with z-VAD.fmk (zVAD,1.1 g/kg),GSK'872 (0.7 g/kg) and combined intervention of zVAD and GSK'872,and neurological defect was evaluated by mNSS while brain infarct volume was measured by TTC staining.Western blot and immunofluorescence assay were used to detect protein expression and location of RIP1,RIP3 and MLKL,respectively.Results Neurological defect and brain infarction were caused by MCAO.Compared with MCAO group,zVAD,GSK'872 and the combined intervention alleviated neurological defect and reduced brain infarct volume significantly (P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).The protein levels of RIP3 and RIP1 MLKL were increased in mice of MCAO group,while GSK'872 and the combined intervention obviously downregulated the aforementioned protein expression [RIP1 (GSK'872:0.64± 0.02 vs MCAO:1.28±0.02,P＜0.01);RIP3 (GSK'872:1.08±0.02 vs MCAO:1.45±0.02,P＜0.01);MLKL (GSK'872:0.54±0.01 vs MCAO:1.00±0.01,P＜0.01)].However,zVAD only slightly reduced protein expression of MLKL (P＜0.05) but didn't change the protein expression of RIP1 and RIP3 (P＞0.05).Conclusion RIP1,RIP3 and MLKL are involved in the execution of necroptosis and contribute to the pathological progress of brain ischemia/reperfusion injury.
