The relationship between the change of ET-1 ,NOS and neuronal function score of cerebral vasospasm after experimental rat subarachnoid hemorrhage / 中华行为医学与脑科学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To observe the relationship between the change of endothelin-1 (ET-1), nitric oxide synthase(NOS) content and cerebral vasospasm after experiment Sprague-Dawley rat subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Methods SD rat got the tail artery blood and followed prone positioning in a stereotaxic apparatus, injected autologous arterial blood or saline into cisterna magna,2 d later injected in the same way. For basilar artery (BA),internal carotid artery(ICA) ,and middle cerebral artery(MCA) diameter measurements,gelatin-india ink vascular casted,the blood ET-1 and NOS content were detected by immunoradiology or colorimetry measurement. Results Microangiography in SAH showed extensive macroscopic filling deficit,the diameter of MCA,ICA and BA ((169.33 ±8.67)mm, (227.33 ± 14.25) mm, (226.33 ±5.99) mm respectively) were shorter than those in control group((259.5 ±7.48)mm,(228.17 ±8.09)mm,(254. 67 ±8.48)mm respectively) (all P<0.05). Neuronal function score of 7d(9.45 ±1.77) was higher than control group(0.60 ±0.49) (P<0.05). Content of ET-1 and NOS in blood after SAH 7 d were(231.25 ± 19.45)g/L,(198.50 ±9.52) × 103U/L) ,(72.99 ±5.83)g/L, (230.76 ±17.06) × 103U/L),for sham group,there was significant differences (P<0.05). Conclusion Experiment rat double-hemorrhage method from tail artery can makes experimental subarachnoid hemorrhage model,neurological functional score is increased, neuronal function score is associated with diameter of MCA and ET-1 content.
