Aim: The aim of the present study is to explore the neuroprotective effects of remote ischemic preconditioning in long term cognitive impairment after global cerebral ischemia induced-vascular dementia in mice. Material and methods: The mice were subjected to global cerebral ischemia by occluding the bilateral common carotid arteries for 12 minutes followed by the 24 hours of the reperfusion. The remote ischemic preconditioning stimulus was delivered in the form of 4 cycles of ischemia/reperfusion for 5 minutes each. The cerebral ischemic injury induced-long term cognitive impairment-related learning and memory alterations was assessed using morris water maze, the motor performances of the animals were evaluated using rota-rod test and neurological severity score. The cerebral infract size of the brain were quantified using triphenyltetrazolium chloride staining. Results: Global cerebral ischemia causes long term memory impairment, decreases motor performances and increases the brain infract size in animals. The delivery of remote ischemic preconditioning stimulus significantly abolished the long-term cognitive impairment and ameliorates the motor performances as well as cerebral infract size in brain. Conclusion: The remote ischemic preconditioning mediates neuro protection against global cerebral ischemic injury induced long-term cognitive impairment.

Abstract BackgroundNeuroinflammation and apoptosis are involved in the pathogenesis of ischemic stroke. Alisol A 24-acetate (24A) has a strong inhibitory effect on inflammation and cell apoptosis. The neuroprotective effect of 24A in the global cerebral ischemia/ reperfusion (GCI/R) is still unclear. Methods GCI/R mice was used to investigated the neuroprotective effect of 24A. Modified neurological deficit scores, Morris Water Maze and object recognition test were used to evaluate behaviors. The metabolism in brain regions was detected by MRS. The changes of microglia, astrocytes and neurons was detected. The inflammation and apoptosis were measured.Results The results showed that 24A improved behavioral dysfunction and brain metabolism, alleviate neuroinflammation and apoptosis, inhibited microglia and astrocytes activation, which is associated with the activation of PI3K/AKT pathway. ConclusionsTaken together, our study demonstrated that 24A could alleviate GCI/R injury through anti-neuroinflammation and anti-apoptosis via regulating the PI3K/AKT pathway.
