BackgroundHyperglycemia is one of the major risk factors for stroke and stroke recurrence, leading to aggravated neuronal damage after cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R). ERK1/2 signaling pathway plays a vital role in cerebral ischemic injury. However, the role of the ERK1/2 pathway in hyperglycemia-aggravated ischemic brain damage is not clear.MethodsStreptozotocin (STZ; 50 mg/kg)-induced diabetes (blood glucose ≥12 mmol/L) or control groups in adult Sprague-Dawley rats were further subdivided into I/R (carotid artery/vein clamping), I/R + PD98059 (I/R plus ERK1/2 inhibitor), and Sham-operated groups (n = 10 each). Neurobehavioral status (Neurological behavior scores) and the volume of the cerebral infarction (TTC staining); brain mitochondrial potential (JCI ratio test) and cell apoptosis (TUNEL assay); RAS protein expression, phosphorylated/total ERK1/2 and Drp-1 (Dynamic-related protein 1) protein levels (Western blotting); mitochondrial fusion-related proteins mitofusin-1/2 (Mfn1/2), optic atrophy (OPA-1) and mitochondrial fission 1 (Fis1), and autophagy-associated proteins Beclin-1, LC3-I/II and P62 (Western blotting and immunohistochemistry) were analyzed.ResultsThe I/R + PD98059 group demonstrated better neurobehavior on the 1st (p < 0.05) and the 3rd day (p < 0.01) than the I/R group. Compared to the Sham group, cerebral ischemia/reperfusion brought about neuronal damage in the I/R group (p |
