Effect of K_(ATP) Channel Regulators on the Expression of K_(ATP) Subunits on the Cerebral Ischemia Reperfusion Injury in Gerbil / 航天医学与医学工程

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effect of KATP channel regulator on the expression of KATP subunits on the cerebral ischemia reperfusion injury(I-R) in gerbil.Methods The I-R models of gerbil were performed by occlusion common carotid artery for 10 min and reperfusion for 60 min.Forty eight gerbils were randomly divided into 8 groups sham-operated group,I-R group,I-R+diazoxide pretreatment group,I-R+5-Hydroxydecanoate(5-HD) pretreatment group,I-R+diazoxide+5-HD pretreatment group,I-R+ pinacidil pretreatment group,I-R+glibenclamide pretreatment group,I-R+pinacidil+glibenclamide pretreatment group.Pre I-R,the gerbil of each group was injected with KATP openers or blockers correspondingly,and the expressions of Kir6.1,SUR1,SUR2 mRNA in brain tissue were detected by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR).Results Compared with sham-operated group,the expression of Kir6.1 mRNA in I-R group was increased significantly.Compared with I-R group,the expression of Kir6.1 mRNA in diazoxide pretreatment group was increased significantly,whereas that in glibenclamide treatment group was decreased significantly.Compared with sham-operated group,the expression of SUR2 mRNA was increased significantly both in I-R groups and pharmacologic pretreatment groups.However,there was no difference among KATP opener and blocker groups.And the expression of SUR1 mRNA was no difference in sham-operated group,I-R group and pharmacologic pretreatment groups.Conclusion Kir6.1 mRNA is increased significantly with diazoxide pretreatment.Kir6.1 subunit plays an important role in protection of cerebral ischemia reperfusion injury.However,SUR1 mRNA and SUR2 mRNA are not influenced by the KATP regulators.
