| Abstract | Reperfusion therapy for ischemic stroke can cause secondary brain injury, especially under hyperglycemic (HG) conditions. Here, we investigated the effect of acute treatment with rosiglitazone, a peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPAR-γ) agonist, prior to postischemic reperfusion, on stroke outcome during HG stroke. Male Wistar rats that were either normoglycemic (NG) or HG by STZ (50 mg/kg; for 5–6 days) underwent middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) for 2 h with 2 h of reperfusion. Animals were treated i.v. with rosiglitazone (1 mg/kg; n = 16), rosiglitazone (1 mg/kg) + the free radical scavenger Tempol (50 mg/kg; n = 10) or vehicle (n = 16) 10 min prior to reperfusion and infarct volume, edema formation, and cerebral blood flow (CBF) were measured. Compared to NG, HG stroke significantly increased infarct volume from 5.2 ± 3.0 % vs. 14.7 ± 3.6 % (p < 0.05). Rosiglitazone prevented the increased infarct volume induced by HG that was only 6.9 ± 2.0 % (p < 0.05 vs. HG) but did not have any effect on edema formation that was increased by 3.0 % in both HG vehicle and rosiglitazone-treated ipsilateral vs. contralateral hemispheres (p < 0.05). Combined treatment of rosiglitazone + Tempol did not significantly change brain water content that remained 2.2 % greater than contralateral (p < 0.05) but reversed the neuroprotective properties of rosiglitazone in HG MCAO animals such that infarct volume was 14.3 ± 4.4 % (p > 0.05 vs. vehicle). The lack of an effect of combined treatment of rosiglitazone + Temple may be due to a decrease in reperfusion CBF that was only 60 % of baseline (p < 0.01) compared to 82 % and 89 % for HG vehicle and rosiglitazone-treated animals (p > 0.05). In conclusion, acute rosiglitazone treatment prior reperfusion was neuroprotective but not vascular protective during HG stroke. |

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.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
