Objectives: To investigate the effect of one and two remote ischemia preconditioning episodes (1-RIPC or 2-RIPC, respectively) on neuro-protection after spinal cord ischemic injury (SCI) in rats. Design: Experimental animal study. Setting: College of Medicine, King Khalid University, Abha, KSA. Interventions: Male rats (n = 10/group) were divided into control, sham, SCIRI, 1-RIPC + SCIRI, and 2-RIPC + SCIRI. SCI was induced by aortic ligation for 45 min and each RIPC episode was induced by 3 cycles of 10 min ischemia/10 min perfusion. The two preconditioning procedures were separated by 24 h. Outcome measures: after 48 h of RIPC procedure, Tarlov’s test, withdrawal from the painful stimulus and placing/stepping reflex (SPR) were used to evaluate the hind limbs neurological function. SC homogenates were used to measure various biochemical parameters. Results: Motor and sensory function of hind limbs were significantly improved and levels of MDA, AOPPs, PGE2, TNF-α, and IL-6, as well as the activity of SOD, was significantly decreased in SC tissue in either 1 or 2 episodes of RIPC intervention. Concomitantly, levels of total nitrate/nitrite and eNOS activity were significantly increased in both groups. Interestingly, except for activity of SOD, eNOS and levels of nitrate/nitrite, the improvements in all neurological biochemical endpoint were more profound in 2-RIPC + SCIRI compared with 1-RIPC + SCIRI. Conclusion: applying two preconditioning episodes of 3 cycles of 10 min ischemia/10 min perfusion, separated by 24 h, boost the neuro-protection effect of RIPC maneuver in rats after ischemic induced SCI in rats.
