Résumé
Aim To explore the effects of tetrameth-ylpyrazine-2′-O-sodium ferulate (TSF)on the swelling of astrocytes and the expression of AQP4 after oxygen gl-ucose deprivatio /reoxygenation(OGD /Reox).Methods Astrocytes were divided into 4 groups:control group, OGD /Reox group,Ozagrel group and TSF group.The effects of TSF on astrocytes were investigated 6,1 2,24 and 48 h after OGD /Reox.The cell injury was assessed by measuring LDH activity and MTT.The expression levels of AQP4 protein of astrocytes were detected u-sing Western blot.Results OGD /Reox induced obvi-ous cell swelling and significant reduction of LDH in astrocytes whereas TSF remarkably attenuated OGD-in-duced astrocyte swelling and LDH reduction (P group(P 0.05 ).Conclusion TSF can attenuate OGD-induced swelling of astrocytes through decreasing the AQP4 expression.
