摘要
Cerebral ischemia exacerbates neuronal death and neurological dysfunction. Evidence supports the involvement of oxidative/nitrative stress in the pathophysiology of cerebral ischemia. Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) is a rate-limiting enzyme in heme catabolism, possessing potent anti-oxidant and anti-apoptosis effects. In transgenic mice, HO-1 overproduction is neuroprotective against cerebral ischemia injury, but by unclear mechanisms. The present study determined whether treatment with adenoviral vector overexpressing HO-1 (Ad-HO-1) attenuates post-ischemic brain damage via reduction of oxidative/nitrative stress. After focal cerebral ischemia, Ad-HO-1 reduced lipid peroxidation and protein nitration, decreased infarct volume, and attenuated neurologic deficits. Zinc protoporphyrin IX (ZnPP IX, a specific HO-1 inhibitor) blocked Ad-HO-1 mediated effects against ischemic brain damage. Although Ad-HO-1 slightly reduced ischemic brain NO concentrations, Ad-HO-1 treatment significantly inhibited cerebral expression of iNOS protein expression, without significant effect upon nNOS or eNOS expression compared to vehicle after focal cerebral ischemia. Ad-HO-1 preserved NO bioavailability by increasing eNOS phosphorylation during ischemia compared to vehicle. Together, our results suggest that Ad-HO-1 attenuates post-ischemic brain damage via simultaneous reduction of oxidative/nitrative stress and preservation of NO bioavailability.
