Effect of oral administration of Pheretima aspergillum (earthworm) in rats with cerebral infarction induced by middle-cerebral artery occlusion.
We investigated the curative effect of Pheretima aspergillum (earthworm, PA) on rats with middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAo). The MCAo-induced cerebral infarction was established and its underlying mechanisms by counting the infarction areas and evaluating the rats' neurological status. Immunostaining was used to test the expression of NeuN, and glial fibrillary acidic (GFAP), S100B, and b...
متن کاملResearch Paper: Optimization of Transient Focal Cerebral Ischemia Model by Middle Cerebral Artery Occlusion
Introduction: Cerebral ischemia is one of the most common causes of death in human populations in the industrial communities. The need for animal models is inevitable to study the pathophysiology and treatment of cerebral ischemia in human. The current study aimed at evaluating the strengths and weaknesses of different techniques used to create ischemia in previous studies and optimizing the tr...
متن کاملNeuroprotective effect of curcumin in middle cerebral artery occlusion induced focal cerebral ischemia in rats.
Free radical induced neuronal damage is implicated in cerebral ischemia reperfusion (IR) injury and antioxidants are reported to have neuroprotective activity. Several in vitro and in vivo studies have proved the antioxidant potential of curcumin and its metabolites. Hence, in the present study the neuroprotective potential of curcumin was investigated in middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO)...
متن کاملThrombotic Middle Cerebral Artery Occlusion in Rats
Background and Purpose: We examined the effects of the noncompetitive N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor antagonist MK-801 using a newly developed stroke model of thrombotic distal middle cerebral artery occlusion under conditions of carefully controlled head temperature. Methods: Male Sprague-Dawley rats were treated with 1 mg/kg of MK-801 or saline before the induction of ischemia. An argon laser-...
متن کاملCerebral infarction after middle cerebral artery occlusion in progenies of spontaneously stroke-prone and normal rats.
A differential outcome results from rapid middle cerebral artery (MCA) occlusion in young normotensive Wistar (NW) rats as compared to the spontaneously hypertensive stroke-prone (SHRSP) rat. The SHRSP invariably infarcts; the NW usually does not. To determine if segregation at a single autosomal locus explains the difference between strains, a NW male was crossed with several SHRSP females to ...
