ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the protect effects of Edaravone(Ed)and GM1 on the rat model of parkinson disease(PD).Methods To establish the unilateral PD rat model,6-OHDA was injected at two points of right substantial nigra pars compacta(SNC),ventral tegmental area(VTA),then the old rats were randomly divided into normal,NS,PD,PD + GMI,PD + Ed,FD + GM1 + Ed six groups.14d later,a rotational test induced by apomorphine was performed to determine the successful ratio.Cell apoptosis in SNC of rats were examined by TUNEL methods.Results Normal and NS groups unappeared rotate action by APO,and have no cell apoptosis in SNC.The other groups all appear rotate action(＞7 r/min)by APO,rotate action were in following gradation:PD +GM1 + Ed group(8.0±0.3)＜PD + Ed group(12.0±0.6)＜PD + GM1 group(17.0±1.0)＜PD group(23.0±1.3)(P＜0.01);and cell apoptosis in SNC were in following gradation:PD + GM1 + Ed group(27.63±2.38)＜PD + Ed group(38.42±3.54)＜PD + GM1 group(49.36±3.12)＜PD group(62.61±4.03)(P＜0.01).Conclusion 6-OHDA could induce change of action of rat and cell apoptosis in SNC.GM1,Ed reduce significantly the effect induced by 6-OHDA.GM1 combining with Ed have the best effects.
