MATERIALS AND METHODS
To explore the biological function of harpagide in cerebral ischaemia-reperfusion injury (CIRI), The CIRI model was established by oxygen-glucose deprivation and reoxygenation (OGD/R) on rat cortical neurons. It tested cell survival rate by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-thiazolyl)-2,5-diphenyl-2-H-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay, apoptosis by flow cytometry, intracellular Ca2+ concentration [Ca2+] i by cofocal laser, and expressions related to endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) by RT-PCR and Western blot.RESULTS
We found that pretreatment with harpagide (50 μM) prevented OGD/R-induced apoptotic cell death. Harpagide also significantly decreased the gene expression levels and protein production of ERS-related proteins. We found that harpagide also exerted a neuroprotective effect on TG-induced apoptosis in rat cortical neurons and decreased the gene expression levels and protein production of GRP78, caspase-12 and CHOP. We also measured the intracellular calcium ion concentration ([Ca2+]i) in neurons and found that harpagide significantly decreased the [Ca2+]i induced by OGD/R and TG.
