Abstract:
ObjectiveTo investigate the neuroprotective effects of different doses of BPI-1095 on infarct volume and neurological outcome in middle cerebral artery occlusion(MCAO) rats.MethodsCerebral ischemia model was induced with MCAO in adult male SD rats. 10 minutes after surgery, rats were randomly subjected into six groups with 15 rats in each group. Each rat has been given different dosage tested medication and was sacrificed 24 h after treatment. Neurological functional behaviour tests were performed 4 h and 24 h after treatment. After the final behaviour test, 7 or 8 rats (remain 5 rats for brain tissue stain) were randomly picked up from each group. Their infarction volume was measured with image analysis system after 2% triphenyl-tetrazolium chloride (TTC) stain. ResultsHigh dose (240 mg/kg) and moderate dose (80 mg/kg) of BPI-1095 were able to improve the neurological deficit in MCAO rats (P<0.05, vs vehicle-treated group), as well as they decrease the infracted volume (P<0.05, vs the vehicle-treated group ) 24 h after ischemia.Conclusion80～240 mg/kg BPI-1095 is able to improve neurological deficit effectively and reduce infarct volume significantly.
