Changes in the Steady-State Potential in Rats with Focal Cerebral Ischemia Receiving Cyclopentyladenosine

Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine Aims and scope

Abstract

Brain function and neuroprotective activity of cyclopentyladenosine in rats with focal cerebral ischemia were evaluated by recording the steady-state potential. Cerebral ischemia was modeled by intravasal occlusion of the left internal carotid and middle cerebral arteries and bilateral occlusion of the common carotid arteries. Recording of the steady-state brain potential during experimental ischemia allowed identifying the development of ischemic depolarization by a negative potential shift. Changes in the steady-state potential after cyclopentyladenosine administration reflected delayed development of ischemic depolarization in the nervous tissue. Cyclopentyladenosine holds much promise for the protection of nerve cells from ischemic injury.
