ABSTRACT
Traumatic head injury is a leading cause of mortality and morbidity. As a result of head trauma occurring in the retina of the various biochemical, histological and immunohistochemical effects were investigated. Sprague­Dawley rats were subjected to traumatic brain injury with a weight-drop device using 300 g-1 m weight­height impact. Twenty one rats were divided into three groups, as group 1 (vehicle-treated control), group 2 (vehicle-treated trauma) group 3 trauma + Potentilla fulgens ( P. Fulgens) 400 mg/kg/day, i.p.). Distilled water was used as vehicle. All rats were decapitated 5 days after the induction of trauma, and the protective effects of P. Fulgens were evaluated by histological, immunohistochemical and biochemical analyses. Although further studies are necessary to evaluate the time-and dose-dependent neuroprotective effects of P. Fulgens. Depending on whether trauma inhibits apoptosis of photoreceptor cells, ganglion cells, it is thought that the the support against the degeneration of neural connections can be considered. This study indicates that P.Fulgens is potentially useful for the treatment of eye disorders induced by traumatic brain injury.
RESUMEN
El trauma de cráneo es una de las principales causas de morbilidad y mortalidad. Como resultado de un traumatismo craneal, la retina puede sufrir diversos efectos bioquímicos, histológicos e inmunohistoquímicos. Veintiún ratas Sprague-Dawley fueron sometidas a lesión craneal traumática con un dispositivo, de caída de peso, usando un impacto de 300 g-1 m de peso-altura. Las ratas fueron divididas en tres grupos grupo 1 (control), grupo 2 (traumatismo) y grupo 3 trauma + Potentilla fulgens (400 mg / kg / día, i. p.). Se usó agua destilada como vehículo en todos los grupos. Las ratas fueron decapitadas 5 días después de la inducción del trauma, y se evaluaron los efectos protectores de P. Fulgens mediante análisis histológicos, inmunohistoquímicos y bioquímicos. Es necesario realizar más estudios para evaluar los efectos neuroprotectores, dependientes del tiempo y la dosis, de P. Fulgens. Dependiendo si el trauma inhibe la apoptosis de las células fotorreceptoras, se estima que la disposición de las células ganglionares ayuda contra la degeneración de las conexiones neuronales. P. Fulgens ha demostrado ser efectivo para el tratamiento de los trastornos oculares inducidos por lesión cerebral traumática.
