Matrix metalloproteinase-9 and cystoskeleton actin are involved in the increased permeability induced by hypoxia/ischemia status in a blood-brain barrier model / 中国病理生理杂志

ABSTRACT

AIM:To understand the effects and approach the mechanisms of matrix metalloproteinase-9(MMP-9)and cystoskeleton actin on the permeability increasing of blood-brain barrier(BBB)model which was induced by hypoxia/ischemia status in vitro.METHODS:The BBB model was build by the co-culture of cell ECV304 and astrocytes in vitro,then divided randomly into control group,hypoxia/ischemia group and BB-1101 pretreatment group.The permeability of BBB was determined by [125I]-BSA.The expression and the disposition of actin were detected by direct-immunofluorescence and Western blotting.BB-1101,the MMPs inhibitor,was used to investigate if MMP-9 participate the process of the increasing of BBB models' permeability in hypoxia/ischemia status.RESULTS:Post-stimulation of hypoxia/ischemia for 5 h,the permeability of [125I]-BSA and amount expression of MMP-9 in hypoxia-ischemia group was increased compared with control group(P
