Expression of EphrinB2 Signal in Cerebral Cortex in Ischemic Stroke Rats
Abstract:Objective To observe the expression of phosphorylated EphrinB2 in brain after focal cerebral ischemia/reperfusion in rats. Methods 24 male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into sham group (n=12) and model group (n=12). The model group was mod-eled as middle cerebral artery occlusion and reperfusion with nylon monofilament suture, and then was assessed with Longa's score. The ex-pression of phosphorylated EphrinB2 in cerebral cortex was detected with immunohistochemistry and Western blotting. Results The expres-sion of phosphorylated EphrinB2 and the number of positive cells were significantly higher in the sham group than in the control group (P<0.05). It existed in the vascular endothelium in cerebral cortex. Conclusion EphrinB2 signaling pathway is activated in ischemic stroke.
