Abstract

Objectives: In this study, we investigated the neuroprotective effect of musk1 after brain ischemia in rats. Methods: The middle cerebral artery occlusion model in rats was established by thread occlusion and reperfusion was performed 90 minutes after ischemia. The reperfusion was performed separately on the first, third, and seventh day of the week after brain ischemia. The ischemia area was detected and the expressions of Arg-1, BCL-2, and lba-1 were detected by immunofluorescence staining. Results: The result of immunofluorescence showed that treatment with musk 50 mg/kg and 100 mg/kg for the first, third, and seventh days significantly improved the neurological function and increased the protein expression of Arg-1 and BCL-2 in the ischemic hemisphere of brains in rats. Also, the ischemic area was reduced. Conclusions: The research results confirms that Mongolian Badanga2 musk in 100 mg/kg doses, has functions of protecting neuro cells, supporting neurogenesis against inflammation, improving neuro tissues regeneration, and reducing ischemic areas through increasing brain tissues Arg-1 and BCL-2 protein's expressions, and reducing lba-1 proteins expressions.
