Abstract:
:Previous studies have demonstrated that the c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) pathway plays an important role in inducing neuronal apoptosis following cerebral ischemic injury. JNK signaling pathway in activated during cerebral ischemic injury. It participates in ischemia-induced neuronal apoptosis. However, whether JNK signaling is involved in the process of neuronal apoptosis of diabetes-induced cerebral ischemia is largely unknown. This study was undertaken to evaluate the influence of cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury on phosphorylation of JNK in diabetic rats. Twenty-four adult streptozotocin induced diabetic and 24 adult non-diabetic rats were randomly subjected to 15 min of forebrain ischemia followed by reperfusion for 0, 1, 3, and 6 h. Sixteen sham-operated diabetic and non-diabetic rats were used as controls. Apoptosis was assessed by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick-end labelling (TUNEL). Protein expression of phospho-JNK was examined by immunohistochemistry and Western blot. The numbers of TUNEL-positive cells and phospho-JNK protein expression in the cerebral cortices after 1, 3 and 6 h reperfusion was significantly higher in diabetic rats compared to non-diabetic animals subjected to ischemia and reperfusion (p < 0.05). Western blot analysis showed significantly higher phospho-JNK protein expression in the cerebral cortices of the diabetic rats after 1 and 3 h reperfusion than that was presented in non-diabetic animals subjected to ischemia and reperfusion (p < 0.05). These findings suggest that increased phosphorylation of JNK may be associated with diabetes-enhanced ischemic brain damage.
