Objective: On the basis of the previous research work,the expression of Cdk5 signal pathway was observed after cerebral ischemia 2h and reperfusion for 22 h.Whether NRG1? inhibits neuronal apoptosis through Cdk5 pathway,and what's its specific mechanism,to provide a theoretical basis for the future application of NRG1? in the prevention and treatment of ischemic cerebrovascular disease.Methods:(1)The MCAO/R models were established by inserting a monofilament threads into middle cerebral artery in 360 Wistar rats.These rats were divided into five groups according to the random number table method.Each 55 rats were in sham group,model(MCAO/R)group,treatment(NRG1?)group,inhibitor+treatment(Ros+NRG1?)group and inhibitor(Ros)group.(2)Sham group was not inserted into the craniotomy,MCAO model was not established,5?l was injected with 0.1mol/L PBS after 2h;MCAO/R group established MCAO/R model 2h after the removal of bolt,0.1ml/L PBS injection of 5?l;In the treatment group,the rats were sacrificed 2 hours after ischemia,and 5?l(2?g/kg)of 8% NRG1? was injected into ICA with ECA stump;In the Ros+NRG1? group,5 ?l of Roscovitine was injected into the ICA by ECA,and then reperfusion was performed after 2h of MCAO administration,and 5 ?l of 8% NRG1? was given immediately.In the inhibitor group,Roscovitine was injected into the Ros+NRG1? group,but after 2h occlusion,5?l of 0.1mol/l PBS was given.(3)After treatment(22h after reperfusion),the neurological function of the animals was measured by the modified neurological severity score points(m NSS).The water content of the brain tissue after MCAO injury was measured by dry and wet weight method.The volume of cerebral infarction was measured by staining with triphenyl tetrazolium chloride(TTC).The morphological changes of neurons were observed by HE staining and toluidine blue(Nissl)staining.The ultrastructural changes of neurons were observed by transmission electron microscopy(TEM).Apoptosis was detected by in situ terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated d UTP-biotin nick end labeling(TUNEL)and flow cytometry(FCM).Immunohistochemistry(IHC)and Western Blot were used to detect the expression of Calpain1,p35/p25,Cdk5 and phosphorylated tau(p-Tau)proteins in neurons.Results:(1)The effect of NRG1? on neurological function: the m NSS score of MCAO/R group,NRG1? group,Ros+NRG1? group and Ros group was significantly higher than that of Sham group(P<0.05).The m NSS scores of NRG1? group,Ros+NRG1? group,Ros group decreased to varying degrees than those of MCAO/R group(P<0.05).The m NSS score of Ros+NRG1?
