Expression and role of insulin-like growth factor-1(IGF-1)in cerebral tissue after intracerebral hemorrhage(ICH)in rats / 中华急诊医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the expression of IGF-1 in cerebral tisse,and its correlation with Glutamate expression and neuronal apoptosis,and to study the role of IGF-1 in the pathophysiologie process of ICH.Methods ICH model was induced in rats by infusing 50?l autologous blood into the eaudate nucleus with stereotaetie device.The animals were randomly divided into sham-operation group,ICH group and exogenous IGF-1 intervention group.Every rat was killed and brain tissue was collected.Immunohistoehemitry assay was used to detect the expression of IGF-1 and Glutamate,and TUNEL method used to detect apoptosis in cerebral tissues.Result At 2 hours after ICH,IGF-1 positive cells appeared around the hematoma in the brain,peaked after 24 hours,and returned to normal level on the 7th day. Glutamate positive cells appeared around the hematoma at 2 hours,peaked on the 3rd day,and its high level expression lasted to the 7th day.TUNEL- positive cells appeared at 8 hours,peaked on the 3rd day,and few apoptotic ceils could be found on the 7th day.The expression of IGF-1 was positively correlated with apoptotie cells and the expression of Glutamate.The amounts of Glutamate positive cells and TUNEL positive cells were significantly reduced after intervention with exogenous IGF-1.Conclusion IGF-1 participated in the pathophysiologic course of ICH.IGF-1 repaired and protected the brain tissue from damage after ICH.
