Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We reported a phenomenon in which male nitric oxide synthase (NOS) deficient mice showed less cerebral infarction than wild type mice. A similar cerebral infarction induction experiment was carried out one week after gonadectomy surgery, considering the influence of sex hormone, and the cerebral infarction significantly increased by orchidectomy. The effect of orchidectomy was counteracted by supplementation with testosterone. In the situation where NOS was deficient, it was suggested that there is protective effect of testosterone on pathology of cerebral infarction. RNA expression in cerebral infarct tissue was examined by next generation sequencer analysis and it was confirmed that the NOS completely deficient mouse showed a gene movement that suppresses oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction signals compared with wild type mouse.
