Résumé
@#ObjectiveTo investigate the protective effect of LY367385 on impairment of cultured mouse cerebral cortical neurons induced by sodium glutamate (Glu) or oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD).MethodsNeuron damage induced by Glu or OGD, as well as the action of (S)-(+)-a-amino-4-carboxy-2-methylbenzeneacetic acid (LY367385) were measured by determining the leakage of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) from neurons. Immunocytochemistry and immunofluorescent methods were used to detect the expression of anti-mGluR1α. Morphological observation of primary cortical neurons was performed by phase contrast microscope.ResultsFollowing the exposure to 0.1 mmol/L Glu for 1 h or OGD for 1 h, LDH leakage from neurons obviously increased (P< 0.01 ). 50 mmol/L LY367385, when co-incubated with Glu or OGD, markedly reduced the LDH leakage (P<0.01). The 24-h leakage of LDH was increased from cells exposed to 0.1 mmol/L Glu for 15 min. Pre-and post-treatment with LY367385 (50 mmol/L ) decreased the leakage of LDH. The cultured neurons expressed mGluR1α.ConclusionLY367385 has protective effect on neurons damaged by Glu or OGD. It may be related to antagonizing mGluR1α.
