摘要
Background: The neuroprotective effects of neuroserpin (NSP) have been well documented in both patients and animal models with cerebral ischemia; however, have never been investigated in hemorrhagic stroke. The aim of this study is to verify the neuroprotection of NSP in the non-tPA-induced intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) mouse model. @@@ Methods: C57BL/6J male mice (n = 198) were involved in this study. ICH models were established with infusion of autologous blood into the brain parenchyma. We then detected NSP expression in ICH brains by morphological methods and western blotting analysis. We measured the brain water content and detected blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability to verify the neuroprotective effects of NSP. @@@ Results: We found that NSP protein expression was upregulated in ICH models, with a peak at 48 h after ICH induction. NSP local administration reduced the brain edema and the BBB permeability in ICH models. The neurological deficits were also ameliorated. Thus, the neuroprotection of NSP in ICH state was confirmed. Additionally, we also found that the distribution pattern of occludin-expressing cells was obviously changed by the ICH procedure but partly recovered after NSP administration. This finding indicated that protecting and/or repairing the injured vascular endothelial cells may be a potential mechanism involved in NSP neuroprotection, which needs further verification. @@@ Conclusions: Our results supported the fact that NSP may be considered as a potential therapy for ICH for the neuroprotective effects including amelioration of the edema.
