Background: Rare sugars, which exist only in very small quantities in nature, have recently attracted attention for their various biological functions in medicine. Among them, d-allose is known to have cytoprotective effects by antioxidant effects. In this study, we investigated whether the antioxidant effects of d-allose reduce brain edema in a water intoxication model of cytotoxic brain edema. Methods: Mice were injected intraperitoneally with distilled water (10 % of body weight) to create a model of brain edema. d-allose was administered orally at 400 mg/kg 30 min before the model was created. Two hours later, the degree of brain edema was measured by the dry-weight method to determine whether d-allose reduced brain edema. As an index of antioxidant effects, we measured changes over time in inflammatory cytokines (tumor necrosis factor-alpha, interleukin-6) induced by the water intoxication model, and whether d-allose reduced inflammatory cytokines 4 h after model creation. Results: Administration of d-allose significantly suppressed brain edema formation of the water-intoxication model. And it significantly reduced inflammatory cytokines (tumor necrosis factor-alpha, interleukin-6). These results suggest that the antioxidant effect of d-allose exerts an anti-inflammatory effect and reduces brain edema. |
