Abstrakt:	Objective: To observe the effects of Ginsenoside Rb1 (GRb1) on neuronal cell apoptosis and the expressions of Bcl-2 and Bax in rats after cerebral ischemia-reperfusion so as to investigate the neuroprotective mechanism of GRb1. METHDOS: The model of cerebral ischemia-reperfusion was established by occluding rat middle cerebral artery for 2 h. The rats were randomly divided into two groups: ischemia-reperfusion group (I/R group) and GRb1 treat group (GRb1 group). GRb1 (40 mg/kg, i.p.) was administered immediately to rats after the onset of reperfusion. Two groups were further subdivided 7 subgroups according to various reperfusion time (3 h, 12 h, 1 d, 2 d, 3 d, 5 d and 10 d, n=4 per time point). HE staining was used to observe histological features. TUNEL and immunohistochemical method were used to analyze the cell apoptosis and expressions of Bcl-2 and Bax, respectively. Results: Compared with I/R group, GRb1 reduced pathological changes, and decreased the number of apoptotic neural cells (P<0.05 on 12 h, 1 d, 2 d and 3 d) and up-regulated the number of Bcl-2 positive cells (P<0.05 on 12 h, 1 d, 3 d, 5 d and 10 d), and meanwhile down-regulated the number of Bax positive cells (P<0.05 on 3 h, 12 h, 1 d, 2 d, 3 d, 5 d and 10 d) in the ipsilateral hemisphere. Conclusion: The neuroprotective effect of GRb1 on cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury is related to inhibit neuronal apoptosis and to up-regulate the expression of Bcl-2 with down-regulating the expression of Bax.
