Abstract:
Objective: To study the protection of IL 1ra in cultured developing neuron injury following Mg 2+ free induced epileptiform discharges. Methods: Rat embryo cortical neurons cultured for 6 d and 17 d were directly exposed to Mg 2+ free media, or pretreated with IL 1 receptor antagonist or NMDA receptor antagonists before being exposed to Mg 2+ free media, and then returned to regular media.MTT assay was used to study mitochondrial function injury, laser scanning confocal microscope to measure [Ca 2+ ]i, and real time RT PCR to detect gene mRNA expression. Results:(1) MTT conversion rates were higher in neurons pre and co treated with 10 mg/L IL 1ra than those of neurons with only Mg 2+ free treatment in neurons cultured for 17 d, but not in neurons cultured for 6 d.(2) [Ca 2+ ]i was lower in neurons pre and co treated with 10 mg/L IL 1ra than those of neurons with only Mg 2+ free treatment, either in neurons cultured for 6 d or in neurons cultured for 17 d, and the effects of IL 1ra on [Ca 2+ ]i change were different between neurons cultured for 6 d and neurons cultured for 17 d.(3) Pre and co treated with 10 mg/L IL 1ra NR1 mRNA expression increase induced by Mg 2+ free treatment was decreased, either in neurons cultured for 6 d or neurons cultured for 17 d, and this effect showed no difference between neurons cultured for 6 d and 17 d; Pre and co treated with 10 mg/L IL 1ra NR2A mRNA expression increase induced by Mg 2+ free treatment in neurons cultured for 17 d was decreased, and NR2A mRNA expression showed no difference between IL 1ra group and age matched control group, but have no effect on neurons cultured for 6 d; Pre and co treated with 10 mg/L IL 1ra have NR2B mRNA expression increase induced by Mg 2+ free treatment was not affected, either in neurons cultured for 6 d or neurons cultured for 17 d. Conclusion:Neuroprotection of IL 1Ra in seizure induced injury is age dependent. The mech anism of the neuroprotection of IL 1Ra includes down regulation of [Ca 2+ ]i and others.
