Research Abstract |
In clinical situation, it takes rather long time to recover the cerebral reperfusion after stroke or cardiac arrest. We, therefore, aimed to identify differences in the postischemic recovery of physiological parameters between short and prolonged brain ischemia. Eighteen Mongolian gerbils were assigned to one of three groups: 5-minute (G5), 15-minute (G15) and 30-minute (G30) ischemia. With the use of our original microspectroscopy system, global ischemic reperfusion was performed. We measured changes in regional cerebral blood flow (r-CBF), microvessel diameter, and brain temperature (BrT) simultaneously. We also monitered somatosensory evoked potentials (SEPs) to evaluate electrophysiological response. Both G5 and G 15 showed concurrent recovery of r-CBF and BrT with hyperemia and hyperthermia, respectively, 10-15 minutes after reperfusion. The increase in BrT was < 1 ℃ and recovered to baseline within 60 minutes after reperfusion. In G30, recovery of r-CBF was significantly delayed relative to that of BrT. The increase in BrT was > 2 ℃, peaking approximately 15 minutes after reperfusion, and then remaining > 1 ℃ increased over 120 minutes. SEPs in G5 and G15 showed concomitant recovery with that of r-CBF, whereas SEP recovery in G30 was delayed relative to that of r-CBF, eventually disappearing. All except one of the G30 gerbils died within 24 hours, but all in G5 and G15 survived. These results suggest that mismatch recovery of r-CBF and BrT after prolonged ischemia initiates metabolic derangement in brain tissue, leading to the electrochemical dysfunction and mortality afterward.
