摘要

In this study, we investigated the neuroprotective effects of paclitaxel in transient cerebral ischemia and possible regulatory mechanism of these neuroprotection. Our data showed that paclitaxel can down-regulate the increased MLK3, JNK3, c-Jun, Bcl-2, and caspase-3 phosphorylation induced by ischemia injury. Cresyl violet staining and immunohistochemistry results demonstrated that paclitaxel had neuroprotective effect against ischemia/reperfusion-induced neuronal cell death. These results indicated that paclitaxel has neuroprotection in ischemic injury through JNK3 signaling pathway and provided a novel possible drug in therapeutics of brain ischemia.
