Title | Chronic unexpected mild stress destroys synaptic plasticity of neurons through a glutamate transporter, GLT-1, of astrocytes in the ischemic stroke rat |
Overall design | The aim of this study was to investigate whether chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) inhibits synaptic formation of regenerated neurons through a glutamate transporter, GLT-1, of astrocytes in the ischemic stroke rats. Middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) model and CUMS model were established as a post-stroke depression model. Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into the following 4 groups: (1) control group, (2) MCAO group, (3) MCAO + CUMS group, and (4) MCAO + CUMS + Ceftriaxone group. The CUMS stress procedure lasted for 18 days after artery occlusion operation, and 200 mg/kg Ceftriaxone was administrated in 1.0 ml 0.9% saline (intraperitoneal injection, i.p.) once a day for 7 days. Cerebrospinal fluid glutamate and glutamine levels were determined by mass spectrometry (n = 5 per group). |
