Na^+-K^+-ATPase,Ca^(2+)-ATPase and SOD activity,as well as MDA content in mouse brain tissue were measured. Numbers of mouth-opening breaths of the isolated mouse head were observed in acute cerebral ischemia mice.RESULTS Learning and memory ability in mice with RCBE were improved significantly compared with model group. The activity of SOD,Na^+-K^+-ATPase and Ca^(2+)-ATPase were increased,while MDA contents decreased after RCBE(0.5,1.0 and 2.0 g·kg^(-1)) and piracetam(0.5 g·kg^(-1)) treatment compared with the model group. RCBE at all concentrations significantly prolonged the number of mouth-opening breaths of the isolated mouse head. CONCLUSION RCBE preconditioning exerts a marked neuroprotective effect on the ischemia brain,which is related to improve the learning and memory via regulating energy metabolism and anti-oxidation.展开更多

AQP-4 ex- pression up-regulates after ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats, making the astrocytic endfeet swelling, with the con- sequence of the injury of blood-brain barrier(BBB) , increasing the permeability of BBB, render too much water in the blood flow to the brain parenchyma, which results in cytotoxic edema, disordering the stability of the central nervous system. In addintion, the increased permeability of BBB is one of the important reasons for the cerebral stroke, therefore, it is essential that research the relationship between AQP-4 with BBB further and restore the blood-brain barrier injury be a new strategy for the prevention and treatment of stroke, worthy of further research.展开更多
