ObjectivesCerebral stroke is a serious clinical condition in which oxidative stress, inflammation, necrosis, apoptosis, and autophagy play important roles in its pathogenesis. This study investigated the neuroprotective and healing effects of calcium dobesilate (CD) on cerebral hypoxia/reperfusion injury in rats.MethodsForty Wistar albino male rats, each weighing 300-350 g, were separated into the Control group (no surgery and no pharmacological agent was administered); Sham-A group (only surgery was performed); DBL-A group (surgery was performed and CD 100 mg/kg/day was administered intraperitoneally for 3 days); Sham-C group (only surgery was performed); and DBL-C group (surgery was performed and 100 mg/kg/day CD was administered intraperitoneally for 10 days). Under sedation anesthesia, the bilateral common carotid arteries of all rats except the Control group were clipped for 30 min. After 4 h, the CD was given to the relevant groups, and then, all subjects were euthanized at scheduled times. The brain of each animal was removed for histopathological (hematoxylin and eosin staining), immunohistochemical (beclin-1, anti-MHC class II and anti-CD-68 staining), and biochemical (TNF, IL-1 beta, IL-6, caspase-3, GSH/GSSG, malondialdehyde, protein carbonyl, LC3II/LC3I, and beclin-1 levels) evaluations.ResultsIt was observed that CD could reduce necrosis and mitigate polarization of microglia to the M1 phenotype, autophagy, free oxygen radicals, protein carbonylation, lipid peroxidation, IL-1 beta, IL6, TNF, caspase-3, beclin-1, and LC3II/LC3I levels in acute and chronic periods of hypoxia/reperfusion injury.ConclusionFrom these results, it was observed that CD treatment could reduce neuronal necrosis and create anti-inflammatory, anti-edema, anti-oxidant, anti-apoptotic, and anti-autophagic effects in hypoxia/reperfusion injury in rats.
