چکیده

introduction: preliminary studies have con.rmed reduction in cell death following treatment with antioxidants. according to this .nding we study the relationship between consumption of coq10 and expression of bax and bcl2 in hippocampus following ischemia/reperfusion as proteins involved in cell programmed death or apoptosis. methods: we studied the protective role of coq10 against ischemia-reperfusion. experimental design includes four groups:  intact, ischemic control, sham control and treatment group with coq10. the mice were pre-treated with coq10 for a week, then ischemia was induced by common carotid artery ligation and following the reduction in in.ammation (a week) the mice was treated with coq10.  nissl staining was applied for counting the necrotic cells of hippocampus and the western blot was performed to measure the bax and bcl2 expression.results: cell death was signi.cantly lower when mice were treated with coq10. bax expression was signi.cantly high in the ischemic group but low in the treatment group, and the bcl2 expression was lower in the ischemic group than the treatment and the vehicle groups.discussion: ischemia for 15 minutes induced cell death in hippocampus with more potent effect on ca1. coq10 intake signi.cantly reduced cell death and prevented the expression of bax while inducing an increase in expression of bcl2.

Protection of Hippocampal CA1 Neurons Against Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury by Exercise Preconditioning via Modulation of Bax/ Bcl-2 Ratio and Prevention of Caspase-3 Activation

Introduction: Ischemia leads to loss of neurons by apoptosis in specific brain regions, especially in the hippocampus. The purpose of this study was investigating the effects of exercise preconditioning on expression of Bax, Bcl-2, and caspase-3 proteins in hippocampal CA1 neurons after induction of cerebral ischemia. Methods: Male rats weighing 260-300 g were randomly allocated into three gro...

Vinpocetine protects liver against ischemia-reperfusion injury.

Hepatic ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury is a clinical problem that leads to cellular damage and organ dysfunction mediated mainly via production of reactive oxygen species and inflammatory cytokines. Vinpocetine has long been used in cerebrovascular disorders. This study aimed to explore the protective effect of vinpocetine in IR injury to the liver. Ischemia was induced in rats by clamping th...

Relaxin protects against renal ischemia-reperfusion injury.

Relaxin, a pregnancy hormone, has antiapoptotic and anti-inflammatory properties. The aim of this study was to determine the effects of relaxin on ischemia-reperfusion (IR)-induced acute kidney injury. Male rats underwent unilateral nephrectomy and contralateral renal IR (45 min of renal pedicle clamping). Rats were divided into three groups: 1) sham group, 2) IR group, and 3) IR-RLX group (rat...
