Abstract:
ObjectiveTo observe the neuroprotective effect of basic fibroblast growth factor(bFGF)on cerebral diffuse axonal injuries (DAI)of rats.Methods40 male SD rats were randomly divided into control group, DAI injury group, bFGF group and DAI saline group. According to the survival time of rats, DAI injury group were divided into five groups, the 6h, 12h, 24h, 72h and 7th day group, The changes of bFGF expression in cerebral cortex were detected by immunohistochemical method from 6h to 7d after DAI. Two hours before DAI, bFGF 10μl was injected into right ventricle in bFGF group. ResultsThe bFGF expression appeared at 6h after DAI, increased at 12h, reached the highest level at 72h, and kept in a high level at 7d.There were obvious differences between 72h group and other groups in DAI injury group (P<0.01),cerebral cortex neurons were obviously decreased by HE staining. In each time group,injured neurons were decreased in bFGF group combined with DAI injury group(P<0.05). ConclusionsbFGF has obvious neuroprotective effect on cerebral diffuse axonal injuries of rats.
