摘要
Ischemic stroke is a common disease with high mortality and morbidity worldwide. One of the important pathophysiological effects of ischemic stroke is apoptosis. A neuroprotective effect is defined as the inhibition of neuronal apoptosis to rescue or delay the infarction in the surviving ischemic penumbra. Resveratrol is a natural polyphenol that reportedly prevents cerebral ischemia injury by regulating the expression of PI3K/AKT/mTOR. Therefore, this study aimed to elucidate the neuroprotective effect of resveratrol on cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury and to investigate the signaling pathways and mechanisms through which resveratrol regulates apoptosis in the ischemic penumbra. Rats were subjected to middle cerebral artery occlusion for 2 h followed by 24 h reperfusion. Cerebral infarct volume was measured using 2% TTC staining. TUNEL staining was conducted to evaluate neuronal apoptosis. Western blotting and immunohistochemistry were used to detect the proteins involved in the JAK2/STAT3/PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway. The results suggested that resveratrol significantly improved neurological function, reduced cerebral infarct volume, decreased neuronal damage, and markedly attenuated neuronal apoptosis; these effects were attenuated by the inhibition of PI3K/AKT with LY294002 and JAK2/STAT3 with AG490. We also found that resveratrol significantly upregulated the expression of p-JAK2, p-STAT3, p-AKT, p-mTOR, and BCL-2 and downregulated expression of cleaved caspase-3 and BAX, which was partially reversed by LY294002 and AG490. These results suggested that resveratrol provides a neuroprotective effect against cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury, which is partially mediated by the activation of JAK2/STAT3 and PI3K/AKT/mTOR. Resveratrol may indirectly upregulate the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway by activating JAK2/STAT3.
