| Abstract | This study was undertaken to demonstrate the vascular protection of exogenous and endogenous hydrogen Sulfide (H2S) on cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. The effect of H2S on cerebrovascular dysfunction in middle cerebral artery (MCA) and neuronal damage were measured after cerebral I/R induced by transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) in cystathionine c-lyase (CSE) knockdown and wild-type rats; the effect of sodium hydrosulfide (NaHS, donor of exogenous H2S ), L-cysteine (L-Cys, substrate of endogenous H2S) and endothelium cells on responses of isolated MCA derived from nonischemic rats were also evaluated to assess the underlying mechanism of H2S-mediate cerebral vasodilation. The results revealed that the contraction and dilation of MCA profoundly decreased after cerebral I/R. The vascular dysfunction became more grievous in CSE knockdown rats than that in wild-type rats. Interestingly, these vascular dysfunction were significantly alleviated by NaHS supplement. Moreover, both NaHS and L-cysteine could induce remarkable relaxation in the isolated MCA, which was obviously eliminated by co-application of potassium channel blockers ChTx and Apamin, or endothelial removal. By contrast, adding endothelium cells cultured in vitro together with ACh into luminal perfusate could mimic non-NO and non-PGI2 relaxation in endothelium-denuded MCA, once CSE was knocked down from endothelium cells, its effect on vasorelaxation was abolished. Furthermore, the indexes of neuronal injury were measured after cerebral I/R to confirm the neuroprotective of H2S, we found that neurological scores, cerebral infarction volume, brain water content, malondialdehyde content and serum lactate dehydrogenase activity (a marker of cellular membrane integrity) were significantly higher in CSE knockdown rats than those in normal control rats, not surprising, NaHS could alleviate the cerebral injury. These findings revealed that H2S has a protective effect on cerebral I/R injury and the protection could be due to its upregulate the endothelium-dependent contraction and dilation function of cerebral vessels via activating potassium channel. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
