| Popis: | The aim of present study was to explore whether 2‐cyano‐3, 12‐dioxooleana‐1, 9‐dien‐28‐oic acid (CDDO)‐ethylamide (CDDO‐EA) attenuates cerebral ischemic injury and its possible mechanisms using a middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) model in C57BL/6 mice. Our results showed that intraperitoneal injection (i.p.) of CDDO‐EA (2 and 4 mg/kg) augmented NFE2‐related factor 2 (Nrf2) and heme oxygenase‐1 (HO‐1) expression in ischemic cortex after MCAO. Moreover, CDDO‐EA (2 mg/kg, i.p.) significantly enhanced Nrf2 nuclear accumulation, associated with increased cytosolic HO‐1 expression, reduced neurological deficit and infarct volume as well as neural apoptosis, and shifted polarization of microglia/macrophages toward an antiinflammatory M2 phenotype in ischemic cortex after MCAO. Using an in vitro model, we confirmed that CDDO‐EA (100 μg/mL) increased HO‐1 expression and primed microglial polarization toward M2 phenotype under inflammatory stimulation in BV2 microglial cells. These findings suggest that a novel Nrf2 activator CDDO‐EA confers neuroprotection against ischemic injury. |
