Abstract

Objective To explore the protective effect of erythropoietin(EPO)on inflammatory injury induced by focal cerebral ischemia/reperfusion in rats.Methods 54 male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into 3 groups:sham operation group,normal saline control group and EPO group.The focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury model was made by suture-occluded method.The content of interleukin-1 β(IL-1β)and the activity of myeloperoxidease(MPO)were measured by radioimmunoassay and chromatoptometry at 6 h,24 h and 48 h reperfusion following ischemia 2 h.The scores of behavior obstacle in rats were assessed at 24 h.Results Compared with the normal saline control group,EPO group got better score of behavior obstacle(all P0.05).The content of IL-1β and the activity of MPO in brain in the EPO group were significantly lower than those in the normal saline control group(all P0.01).Compared with two reperfusion groups,the sham operation group had no obvious abnormal change in each measurement item.Conclusion EPO can reduce the content of IL-1β and inhibit the infiltration of leukoeyte,which can provide protective effect on cerebral ischemic-repefusion injury in rats.
