Effects of minocycline on the expression of NGF and HSP70 and its neuroprotection role following intracerebral hemorrhage in rats
نویسندگان
چکیده
The present study was aimed to investigate the effects of minocycline (MC) on the expression of nerve growth factor (NGF) and heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) following intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) in rats, and explore the neuroprotective function of MC. Seventy-eight male SD rats were randomly assigned to three groups: the ICH control group (n = 36), ICH intervention group (n = 36) and sham operation group (n = 6). The ICH control group and ICH intervention group were subdivided into 6 subgroups at 1, 2, 4, 5, 7 and 14 d after ICH with 6 rats in each subgroup. Type IV collagenase was injected into the basal nuclei to establish the ICH model. All rats showed symptoms of the nervous system after the model was established, and the sympotsm in the ICH control group were more serious than the ICH intervention group. The number of NGF-positive cells and HSP70-positive cells in the ICH intervention group was higher than that of the ICH control group. MC administration by intraperitoneal injection can increase the expression of NGF and HSP70. MC may inhibit the activation of microglia, the inflammatory reaction and factors, matrix metalloproteinases and apoptosis, thus protecting neurons. The change of the expression of NGF and HSP70 may be involved in the pathway of neuroprotection by MC.

Insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF2) as a microglia-derived anti-inflammatory cytokine has a pivotal activity in memory consolidation. However, there is limited evidence on brain cell-originated IGF2 expression, regulation and function in pathological condition and neuro-inflammation. Hence, the present study was conducted to investigate the effect of IGF2 on improving the memory impairment in a...

Background & Aims: Neurotrophic and growth factors are known to have positive effects on neuronal proliferation. However, findings on the effects of exercise training on these factors following brain stroke are limited. Thus, the aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of endurance training on gene expression of nerve growth factor (NGF) and fibroblast growth factor (FGF) in the ...

Intra-cerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a particularly severe type of stroke accounting for 10–15 % of all strokes and is associated with a mortality rate of 30–50%. Neuroinflammation contributes to ICH-induced secondary brain injury and understanding the mechanisms causing neuroinflammation can be helpful to find new treatments of ICH. Recent studies demonstrated that toll like receptor...

Purpose: Spinal cord injury is a global public health issue that results in extensive neuronal degeneration, axonal and myelin loss and severe functional deficits. Neurotrophic factors are potential treatment for reducing secondary damage, promoting axon growth, and are responsible for inducing myelination after injury. Olfactory ensheathing cells (OECs) and minocycline have been shown to promo...

Zuckerkandl’s organ (ZK) is an extra adrenal para-ganglion and has the ability to express glial cell line derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) and transforming growth factor (TGF). It is also a source of dopamine and norepinephrine. In the present study, the neuroprotective and restorative potential of ZK was studied by transplanting it into the striatum of adult rats either before or after the i...
