Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We investigated the time-dependent change of in vivo optical imaging of oxidative stress after stroke with OKD mice. The in vivo signals showed a peak at 1 d after tMCAO that was slightly correlated to infarct volume. The strong ex vivo signals, which were detected in the peri-ischemic area, corresponded to endogenous Nrf2 expression. Our result of synchronization between in vivo imaging and endogenous Nrf2 expression might provide a benefit to verification of drugs targeting the Nrf2-mediated defense pathway and the therapeutic time window in acute phase of ischemic stroke.
