Abstract

Abstract:

BACKGROUND: 8-Hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin (8-OH-DPAT) can decrease brain temperature, which is the potential mechanism of its neuroprotection.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of 8-OH-DPAT on hypoxia inducible factor 1α in the brain tissue of rats with diffuse axonal injury, and to explore the underlying mechanism of 8-OH-DPAT exerting neuroprotection in rats of diffuse axonal injury.

METHODS: The study was approved by the Laboratory Animal Ethical Committee of General Hospital of Northern Theater Command. Wistar rats were randomly assigned into four groups: model group (n=35), constant temperature group (n=35), 8-OH-DPAT group (n=35) and normal group (n=7). Excepting the normal group, rat models of diffuse axonal injury were established according to Marmarou method. Rat models in the constant temperature and 8-OH-DPAT were intraperitoneally injected with 8-OH-DPAT, but those in the model and normal groups were intraperitoneally injected with physiological saline. The body temperature of rats in the constant temperature group was maintained at (37.0±0.5)°C using the blanket. The body temperature of rats was measured every 1 hour. Then, brain injury and hypoxia inducible factor 1α expression level were observed at 6, 12, 24, 72, and 168 hours after diffuse axonal injury in rats.

RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) Compared with the constant temperature and model groups, brain temperature was significantly lower in the 8-OH-DPAT group at 1 hour following modeling (P < 0.05), became lowest at 2 hours (P < 0.05), and then gradually increased. (2) Hematoxylin-eosin staining results revealed that brain injury was more serious in the model group, followed by constant temperature group, and lightest in the 8-OH-DPAT group. (3) Results of immunohistochemistry and ELISA showed that the expression level of hypoxia inducible factor 1α in the serum and brain tissue was lowest in the normal group. In the 8-OH-DPAT group, the expression level of hypoxia inducible factor 1α was increased at 6 hours after diffuse axonal injury, and peaked at 24 hours. Compared with the model group, the expression level of hypoxia inducible factor 1α in serum and brain tissue in the constant temperature and 8-OH-DPAT groups was significantly decreased (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01), especially the 8-OH-DPAT group (P < 0.01). (4) These results imply that 8-OH-DPAT decreases hypoxia inducible factor 1α expression in brain tissue of diffuse axonal injury rats by reducing brain temperature, alleviates the degree of nerve injury, and exerts a neuroprotective effect.
