The expression of GRP78,caspase-9,-12, cytoron C in cytoplasm were 0.012±0.003, 0.004±0.003, 0.006±0.002, 0.012±0. 005, respectively. (2) The number of TUNEL positive neuron in the IR group were 43.6±11.4/mm2( reperfusion 3 h), 64. 4±9. 3/mm2 (repeffusion 6 h), 74. 2±12. 1/mm2 ( repeffusion 12 h), 97. 3±8. 9 /mm2 (reperfusion 24 h), respectively. They were significantly more than that in normal group(P <0. 05).The expression of GRP78 at corresponding times in IR group were 0. 092±0. 008 ( reperfusion 3 h), 0. 078±0.006 (reperfusion 6 h), 0.054±0.009 (reperfusion 12 h), 0.038±0.007 (reperfusion 24 h),respectively. The expression of cytoren C in cytoplasm at corresponding times in IR group were 0. 040±0. 006 (repeffusion 3 h), 0. 076±0. 009 (reperfusion 6 h), 0. 108±0. 005 (reperfusion 12 h), 0. 089±0. 008 (reperfusion 24 h), respectively. The expression of caspase-9 at corresponding times in IR group were 0. 042±0. 003 ( reperfusion 3 h), 0. 086±0. 007 ( reperfusion 6 h ), 0. 142±0. 006 ( reperfusion 12 h), 0. 112±0. 009 ( reperfusion 24 h), respectively. The expression of caspase-12 at corresponding times in IR group were 0. 076±0. 006 (reperfusion 3 h), 0. 113±0. 010 (reperfusion 6 h), 0. 125±0. 005 (reperfusion 12 h), 0. 057±0. 008 (reperfusion 24 h), respectively. They were significantly higher than that in normal group(P<0. 05). (3) The number of TUNEL positive neuron in the treatment group were 19.4±10. 6/mm2 ( reperfusion 3 h), 26. 4±12. 3/mm2 ( repeffusion 6 h), 39. 3±13.3/mm2 ( reperfusion 12 h), 49. 3±13. 6/mm2 (reperfusion 24 h), respectively. They were significantly lower than that in IR group, but more than that in normal group(P<0. 05). The expression of GRP78 at corresponding times in the treatment group were 0. 158±0.012 (repeffusion 3 h), 0. 175±0. 005 (reperfusion 6 h), 0. 125±0. 013 (reperfusion 12 h), 0. 079±0. 004 (reperfusion 24 h), respectively. They were significantly higher than that in IR group and normal group (P<0. 05 ). The expression of cytoron C in cytoplasm at corresponding times in IR group were 0. 026±0. 002 (reperfusion 3 h), 0. 042±0. 008 (repeffusion 6 h),0. 062±0. 007 ( reperfusion 12 h), 0. 045±0. 004 ( reperfusion 24 h), respectively. The expression of caspase-9 at corresponding times in IR group were 0. 033±0. 002 ( reperfusion 3 h), 0. 063±0. 005(reperfusion 6 h), 0. 092±0. 005 (reperfusion 12 h), 0. 068±0. 008 (reperfusion 24 h), respectively.The expression of caspase-12 at corresponding times in IR group were 0. 061±0. 004 ( reperfusion 3 h),0. 068±0. 009 ( reperfusion 6 h), 0. 072±0. 007 ( reperfusion 12 h), 0. 054±0. 005 ( repedusion 24 h),respectively. They were significantly lower than that in IR group, but higher than that in normal group(P<0. 05). Conclusions Fetal rat cerebral neuron apoptosis following intrauterine distress is associated with the action of endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondrium. Up-regulation of GRP78 induced by 2DG counteracts primary cellular damage caused by endoplasmic reticulum stress. 2DG plays a protective role for fetal rat cerebral neuron following intrauterine distress.
