Objective To explore the adjustive effect on Caspase-3 of rhEPO after focal ischemia and reperfusion in rats, and reveal the mechanism of neuro-protection by rhEPO. Methods The acute focal cererbral ischemia/reperfution model was established with suture emboli as described by Nagasawa. The brain tissues were used to make the freeze-sections. Some sections were used for the observation of neuron pathologic change in by NISS staining, others for immunohisochemistry to detect the expression of Caspase-3 in ischemia semi-dim region. Counted the amount of positive cells and analyzed the result. Another 24 rats were killed at 48h after reperfusion for TTC staining. Results The positive stained cells were distributed dispersively in normal group and sham group, and more intensively in cerebral cortex of the other two groups. In semi-dim region, the amount of positive cells in ischemia and reperfusion group, was significant larger than in control sham group (P<0.01) and rhEPO group (P<0.01). Conclusions The activation of caspase-3 in rats which were focal cerebral ischemia and reperfusion operated was striking, and rhEPO could Inhibit this activation significantly. It indicated that rhEPO might be one of protective drugs for ischemia’s effective therapy.
