Popis: | We used magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to assess the efficacy of Na+/H+ exchanger isoform 1 (NHE-1) inhibition following cerebral ischemia. Transient focal cerebral ischemia was induced in wild-type controls (NHE-1(+/+)), NHE-1 genetic knockdown mice (NHE-1(+/-)), and NHE-1(+/+) mice treated with the selective NHE-1 inhibitor HOE642. Diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) revealed a brain lesion as early as 1 hour following reperfusion and illustrated significant protection in NHE-1(+/-) mice (16.2 +/- 7.9 mm3 in NHE-1(+/-) mice vs. 47.5 +/- 16.6 mm3 in NHE-1(+/+) mice). Knockdown of NHE-1 showed significantly smaller infarct at 72 hours on T2 imaging (21.2 +/- 12.6 mm3 in NHE-1(+/-) mice vs. 64.6 +/- 2.5 mm3 in NHE-1(+/+) mice). Administration of HOE642 prior to reperfusion or during early reperfusion reduced ischemic damage. Thus, high resolution T2 images can be used for consistent and precise calculation of lesion volumes, while changes of DWI are a sensitive early marker of ischemic injury. The results of this study demonstrate the therapeutic potential for inhibition of NHE-1 in treating cerebral ischemia. |
